People in this low morale environment feel unworthy and their skill set suffers, therefore they end up unemployable with hero’s them more stuck in the apathy and workplace.

This woman is phenomenal! I think the reality that “we’ve all got something” calms me down so much. When in a bout, what really sends me further down is thinking that I’m crazy and helplessly doomed to a life of insanity. Normalizing it stops it from getting so dark for me. Unrealistic expectations of what a normal life is I think is what makes things worse for many of us.

I know about that--some Christians need to stop judging everyone and get into therapy themselves, but I'm not goign to hold my breath, waiting! many of them are in too much denial to even consider it- they pretend that somehow it's self-centered or that a person's just not "thankful to God" when depressed. Often this keeps other family members in a state of denial, too,that they're being psychologically abused by this "Rah rah, isn't God great and isn't life beautiful" point of view that's being forced on them!I was a very bright child, that got picked on by my mom, and sexually abused by my dad. When I tried to talk about this to them as an adult, I was labeled the enemy and all kinds of badmouthing went on for decades about me to other relatives. Of course, they never mentioned the REAL reason they felt threatened by me, (as they didnt want them to know about their abuse of me)I was a single parent and dependent on my parents for a tiny bit of help to pay bills, and had the self-esteem of an ant! Please, find help- it took me a lifetime to find a therapist-- they were expensive and/or didn't "specialize" in parental abuse. Believe me, I think this was just an excuse, though to get out of truly having to hear stuff that would be difficult to hear, sadly.

5:08 In my experience, the vast majority of bosses will simply fire the depressed employee in the expectation that the next one that comes along won't suffer from depression or any other condition that would prevent them from robotically performing their expected tasks.

Wow!! Dealing with this mental illness is extremely difficult. At work you are smiling but inside you are dying. This pain hurts. The hurt I feel in my heart can be so unbearable at times. So many medications and none of them are working. All I do is pray to God for HELP!!

The chant over and over again says "get help" but there should be a video about what this means. What does it mean for people who don't have insurance versus have insurance. IF a person pays a therapist, HOW MANY therapists will a patient TRY before they find one that fits and will they be paying an extra $200 a month or more for therapy. And if GET HELP means taking PILLS how much will that cost, what will the side effects be, how long will the pills be prescribed, will a person be stuck on meds for many years and with a numbing effect. HOW MANY types of pills will be prescribed before something works 50%. GETTING HELP isn't easy and people should CLARIFY THAT. These videos are unreal because getting help just means getting people stuck into a pharmaceutical dependency with no end. A person might have to try 3 or 4 therapist before they find one they like.

I have attempted suicide 3 times, at 16, at 21, and last year at 26, ended up 15 days at my local hospital in the middle of a covid crisis at said hospital (lost my job a few days later).

I've been severely depressed since childhood. I'm occasionally 'meh', but can't remember being happy in years. My life is pretty bad, so I'm not sure if it's just a build up of situational events and my brain has just given up coping. I have tried a variety of treatments and nothing has worked. SSRIs made me numb, but also made me a zombie and I lost my job as a result. So I can't go back on those. I would like to experience being happy for just a day to see what it's like. Not even ectasy, just happy and content. But I don't know how.

You are not alone and I appreciate you sharing your feelings because it helps me feel like I am not the only one who has been profoundly depressed since childhood. I have always felt like I am looking into a fish bowl watching everyone else "live joyfully" and I don't know how to do it. I have experienced occasional moments of feeling good, but I go from severely depressed to 'meh' just as you describe. The doctor refers to getting me back to "how I used to feel" when I wasn't depressed, but there isn't a time when I felt differently. I have tried numerous things as well. and nothing has any lasting effect. All I can say to you is don't give up. Keep searching for something that will help you. I will try to take my own advice.

Have you ever considered medical cannabis? I don't know what the laws are in your state (or country), but there is growing research on how it can help treat depression, and it is even currently being used to help treat people with PTSD. Notice I say "treat" and not "cure". But it can be quite effective. I have mild/moderate depression and am in therapy, and cannabis has done wonders for me. It's given me some new perspectives, allowed me to relax and not worry so much (I tend to ruminate a lot), laugh more, and even sleep better (I've had issues with insomnia and sleep disturbances for a long time). It is worth considering, if you have not tried it before.

So long story but I believe prayer works but please contact your dr if suffering too as you would with a physical condition like a broken leg, arm or asthma.

I like her theories. In reality there are no MD’s that do their own CBT, etc. They only write the scripts and they take months to get an appointment with.

And not to mention the childhood traumas they cause me which only adds to the Low self esteem. At home I have no one to listen to my thoughts so I bottle up my thoughts & emotions which leads to breakdowns & suicidal thoughts as well as the voices in my head saying “why are you alive, your family finds you being a burden, they love your cousins more than you”. I also get sick very easily, most of the time it’s just common cold but when I was a toddler I had problems with my stomach, skin & sinus, I had to see a doctor constantly & my family paying for the bills would tell me “you have a lot of problem you know?” And I still have those problems now but I just don’t say it because… That one time when I went out with my friends, we went onto a high building the voice in my head went “hey, ever wondered if you’d die if you jumped off?” But my friends pulled me out of the thought before I actually went too close. Right now my only way of coping is listening to music, it calms my emotions & it stops the voices from coming back.

Also, I grew up with siblings, but it wasn't any better then growing up alone when we were living together. Somehow, our parents found a way to keeps emotionally separated, so we never had the strength to support each other, and we were always scared we'd get scolded too if we even tried. Only after I moved out and got into therapy I managed to get in touch again with my sister and older brother. Me and my sister are able to talk about those times, and we've found some healing over the years, but my older brother is a wall.

Yes, I don’t think people can truly understand how debilitating depression is unless they’ve personally experienced it. It’s one of those things you have to have gone through - you can tell a mile off when people don’t get it

We need to CHANGE the way we have set up society. We need to CHANGE the way we work. We need to CHANGE the way we treat ourselves, and how much value we place on self-care. When we change the way we are living, we won't need so much mental health treatment. People wouldn't be so depressed or anxious if we changed the way we are living. No living organism can sustain this forever, and the world is breaking down due to the unbelievable amount of stress people are carrying.

I don't like that it's so common because that means it's just as easy to be looked over and looked down upon as not serious enough. I was recently diagnosed with dysthymia (persistent depressive disorder) and it was disappointing because I knew it wouldn't be taken seriously... especially when it's described as "mild" or "low-grade" depression. I hate that it's so widespread.

Dr.healingstrain's work is so important, especially given the current state of mental health care in this country. I'm glad to see someone taking a holistic approach to treating these issues.

I truly believe if they called mental illnesses as brain disorders, it would remove a lot of the stigma.The brain is an organ like any other organ. Just because it is located in head does not mean depression is due to a flaw in character. Also depression is not about being unhappy . It is an illness.

Depression is always with you. Never lets up, never lets go of you unless you seek treatment. Seeking help is the hardest step. It’s hard to do but worth it

Actually, many people don't think depression is that hard and they don't understand why we even suffer from depression. I've met such people and was like 'just shut up' lol. Many people don't even wanna hear you say I'm depressed. When I say "I think I suffering from depression" all they say is "don't you say that again, you're being a little moody. Get going, do your work."

I've been depressed for the most part of my life. I got diagnosed with major clinical depression a few years ago and unfortunately can't afford therapy. I am now 33 years old and this is a very hard thing to deal with. I sympathize so much with the people suffering from that. I really hope that one day society will be able to understand more people that are depressed. Everytime I talk to my mother about my depression I always get the same answer and it's crushing me inside. ''You are 33 years old it's time to be a man stop being like a children''. It really hurt especially when it's the person you're looking the most upon. Stay safe everyone. Much love xox

Sweet, perhaps you are able to find a friend or another relative to talk to? Your mother does not understand that she is hurting you. IF you think she does understand then definitely do not talk with her about your feelings. You have every right to have a listening and caring ear. Being a man or woman (re: adult) means you are looking out for yourself. Trying to talk things through is a sign of maturity. Talking is powerful. Power gets things done. Talk with someone you trust. I personally get a lot from Kati Morton (Therapist) on KZread. All the best to you 💟

I just stumbled upon this video and it brought tears to my eyes. I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder 20 years ago. I still struggle at times, but like most things, my feelings of hopelessness and sadness ebb and flow. Recently saw a nurse practitioner and told her about my lack of motivation and the constant sense of dread I feel in doing simple things. She told me I should exercise. She said that would help. Does anyone else see what’s wrong with this picture? If I’m struggling with getting ready for work, how in the world do you expect me to exercise?! I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Yes if these simple things worked none of us would have depression. I had a Psychiatrist say do cardio 3 times a week 20 min, after I told him I am worse after a supervised exercise program took all my energy. (And I had gotten up to 10 min of cardio.) And that was why I made the appointment, really was not heard. First time I lost hope. Do not lose hope with such a comment. Evidence says exercise does help is low or moderate depression. Unfortunately TRD depression is very real and I just keep trying, and learning to live with it and just recently have a new psychiatrist and a psychologist. This is the best help I have received, still working on fatigue, unemployable level of fatigue.

I think antidepressants can lower dopamine, the hormone responsible for motivation and happiness

I suffer from depression and panic disorder , but i will never be able to get the help i need, because you have to have money in order to find the right therapist offering the right kind of treatment for your individual needs. I live in the UK and all i am offered is NHS help, and they are useless . It's like everything in life....you get what you pay for.

Those 3 p's of pessimism are just right on the dot. It's exactly what makes depression give you this false sense of self. 1) By taking things PERSONALLY, you allow your authentic self to be invaded or even replaced by something that isn't really you. 2) By thinking PERVASIVELY that bad things happen often in your life pushes aside the things that are good on many occasions either past or present but fixate on all the bad things. 3) By thinking that those bad things are PERMANENT, prevents one from looking outside their frame of mind no matter how cloudy. All they see is nimbus clouds and the weather will not be sunny, not ever, because the storms are so frequent, therefore, must be CONSTANT.

I'm one who has never been diagnosed. And i know i have depression because i have those suicidal ideations regularly. My typical first thought to any sort of inconvenience is "hmm i could just not deal with it. Can't be a problem for me if I'm not alive" Ma'am i wish more people had your line of sight about depression. The way you explained it, the way you talk about it, Thats something I've never thought about. Never have i thought it was the key to my happiness. I learned something. Thank you.

When you have moments of clarity and feel a bit better, you realize having heaps of clothes on the floor, chair, or bed, and dusty furniture from months ago is not normal and it's not okay.

Preventing depression is really important. I think everyone should be taught about mental and emotional health in grade school. So many of us just find ourselves in a depression and dont learn good coping strategies until we go to therapy.

Depression can’t really be preventive. Part of it is genetic. I have a long sort of history of depression stretching all the way back to my great grandfather. There are probably ways that I could’ve avoided getting the condition. But I couldn’t do it. Last semester in college, I would have lunch with people. Laugh with people. I would talk with them in my classes. But then I got depressed in April. It can always be prevented, even if you have a stable social support system. That’s some thing that this psychologist needs to remember; you can’t just avoid having depression. It comes when you least expect it. Mine happened because I let my anxiety build up due to the work associated with the class. I’m sorry about the dictation errors.

I'm horribly depressed and getting worse at a hastening pace. I'm 63 and have had a lifelong history. I've tried just about everything short of ECT or TMS. Wish ppl believed me.

I've been for CBT and also had a telephone call with a therapist both of them don't seem to understand why I feel depressed and worse some days than others. Heres the problem, people who work in these places offering CBT want you to fill out a questionnaire based on how you feel. I cannot for the life of me give depression a score between 1-5! 1 being not at all and 5 being all the time. It's different everyday depending on what I do, what I drink if I am out drinking alcohol or even the weather. My epileptsy can make me more depressed after a focal seizure (I mentioned on another video) I do believe that on a nice hot sunny day more and more people including myself who suffer depression, come out and plan things to do with friends! So how would anyone seek the right help if it's not up to their standards of scoring an illness from 1-5? IMPOSSIBLE! I suffer with clinical depression but according to them i'm fine and they don't understand why I need help. It's a no win!!

I've suffered from depression episodes all my life....I had to work full time with a sick husband.off and on, as a TD1 and then our daughter as a TD1. I had no counseling, no family member was not interested in talking to me about my issues, doctor prescribed meds for me and I muddled through each episode...yes it was difficult but I made it.

Letting go of the need to be understood by those we believe are the important people in our life is not a natural or normal part of being human. Finally I have made a choice to eliminate people who don’t understand or get me. Their is a grief of loss process with this, but it can pass with the work. My internal dialogue switched to “this person is not a match for me and I accept this and allow myself to grieve the loss and move forward into a life of finding people who are a good and healthy match for me. This is ok. I will not blame or shame myself for making healthy choices”. Knowing the signs of narcissistically minded people and vetting them out of your life is just part of the work.

I think there is still guilt or shame attached to just being sad, unhappy or grieving for longer that is usually expected. It's perfectly ok to feel down about your life situation, even though you have friends, family, a job and in general, have everything going for you. It's ok to miss someone you cared about even though you feel you should have moved on by now. It happens to all of us. It's ok to still be sad about someone you lost, even though they passed away 10-20 years ago. That's baggage, that's something we all carry. The problem arises when non of that get's any outlet, it's just stuck in someones head. People need to be alot more open with each other so we dont carry around all this baggage without actually taking it out and looking at it through someone elses eyes. Just that helps sometimes. Our society is so hell bent on success and happiness that people feel shame when they feel unhappy or sad with all the recources they have around them.

Exercise does help but it's impossible to do this on my own when I'm 'in the black.'

With 45 mins of cardio 3x a week, vitamin b shots and quitting sugar, I can cut my antidepressants in half but I can't get there in the worst times. Dragging myself out to help someone else also hugely helps get me out of my head. I never regret the smallest attempt at exercise, and sometimes I can also get there if a buddy picks me up.

I became extremely depressed almost 3 years to the day that this video was published. I was hospitalized for a panic attack. Then I visited the hospital again and my depression became much worse. I can’t listen to the videos or podcasts that I used to listen to because I have trouble concentrating. I always blame myself because I think that I am the cause of it. And that I could’ve done better if I had just finished that class by taking a final exam. It’s hard to find the motivation to put on lotion or perfume. So sometimes I force myself to do it. And other times I feel so happy that I decided to do it, just like I did before I got depressed. Depression is scary. And well I agree that it could be medicated if we socialized with each other and practiced holistic treatment methods, it can’t be prevented completely. It can be part of your DNA, and it can always present itself if you experience a stressful or traumatic event. Insured, I don’t really agree with the psychologist. You can’t avoid getting depression. It happens when you don’t really expect it to. This comment has been modified. I deleted the one I made a month ago.

She gets it! She's a wonderful gift to psychiatry

The physical pain, weakness, discomfort are the worst

Any episodes of depression I've had in my life have been 'situational'. Once the situation resolves then the depression disappears. Usually, it's a toxic person that I need to cut out of my life and sometimes it's not that easy to get away from them.

Why does my depression kick in when I hear this? Nearly to tears! I was suicidal toxic work place did not help. I am on medication, now retired finding myself in fibre art, working with colors ar my own pace has helped so much.

Exactly. I am 42 , no career, no children, no partner & no friends. Alone & no social life. Shame I live with. Suffering & loneliness. As if I would choose this life?… Nobody chooses this illness. Hell on earth. I have tried to get help & nothing works. Perhaps everyone has something but really Dr. Varma does not seem to have anything. Some of us are cursed. No I have no talent. None. Yes loneliness kills. So hard to find community. Medication never worked for me. In trouble now. Cannot make friends. Tried for years to get well. So what do you do when you don’t recover? All my friends gave up on me.

Love the advice to bosses about giving employees mental health days. That is exactly the kind of employer that I would want to work for. I haven’t found one though so… I am thankfully self-employed 🙏🏻

Wow this hit hard. The time before depression I was known for my hand eye coordination. Playing cricket,guitar stuff like that. Now I have to try harder and its nowhere close to how much of a high I used to get with my talents. Depression reduces you to a shell of your former self and turns you into a cheap version of yourself. I just wanna feel like myself again. Exercise,diet and meditation does help to some degree and there are just a few days in a year I could say I was doing good. Otherwise its just a mediocre version of myself and when new people I meet think thats all I am. Thats what hits you even harder because they don’t even know what you are capable of and I don’t blame then because they judge by what they see. So, after fighting for so long me and my brain has given up on life and what I was meant to be. Just become this run of the mill IT guy who is not even good at computers. I think anyone can beat me at anything. Confidence has taken a hit to the point I tell myself “whats the fucking point of even trying”. Luckily I am still somehow hanging in there and dedicated myself yo serving others. Because I sure as hell can’t feel anything so might as well help someone feel good specially my close ones. There are no suicidal thought just thoughts that whats the point of all this.

I rarely call off work...even when I am sick. The only reason I usually stay home is if I believe I may be contagious. I also never take off work for depression. I work at a very hazardous job, so with suicidal ideation, I had plenty of ways to do it.
