You just don’t want to use the real adjective..WEAK. You can be kind without being weak. But that takes more strength, which you don’t have. Just be honest with yourself. I have been. Once you are honest about it, and you start to think about that reality, that sad reality, that you are weak and pathetic it will cause an emotional fire pit within you, and it will really start to burn and you will start to think of how other people must see you and it disgusts You to your core. You have to bring yourself all the way to the bottom until there’s absolutely positively nothing left of you and then you will either come charging back up or you will stay down there. But most of us want to come back up. If we didn’t, none of this would upset us.

I was severe ocd. After s understand whole process and learn how to ocd mind work and why is it sending creepy thoughts again and again. I started to work on them. I pushed myself everyday forward no matter how bad situation. Now I can say I get my life back from ocd. I can enjoy my life as I want. I can enjoy very small happiness. So push yourself forward every day give yourself time it takes time to heal. But you can do it ❣️

I’m 59 and have been battling depression and anxiety my entire life. Most of my issues cannot be resolved so I don’t see a path for happiness. I’m just so very tired. I have my first serious mental health appointment next week. I hope and pray that something will change. I cannot and will not harm myself but I just feel like I’m running out of steam.

I went through two severe depression during my lifetime. Each time was caused by a different reason but nonetheless I felt it was better that I just didn't want to hurt anymore. Fortunately I was able to overcome it after some time. But most suicidal people are going through pain that their mind cannot seem to cope with. Most don't want to hurt anyone, including themselves, but the only way to not hurt anymore is to never wake up. But if it's one thing I learned is that if you make it past those dark times you can emerge on the other side stronger than before having learned from the experience. Now you will view and see things a bit more differently than before but in a positive way.

Just torture. But, I am agree with your comment.

How do I know that any of these comments are real? I am still so alone in real life. Any comfort that I've gotten is from people online. Now, even that doesn't help. I've gained so much weight even though I eat healthier and eat less than I ever have. I'm 32. I'm too tired to exercise though. I take small naps during the day on some days. At night I can only get 30min to an hour of sleep. This been going on for almost a year. Brain always foggy now. Don't speak to people because I either stutter or slur in my speech. I think it might be depression. I see the reaction people give to others that ask for help so there is no point in talking about problems or asking for help. It's always being "lazy" or "weak". Now that I doubled in size I can see me only getting "being lazy" comments. And if so many people feel the same way as me then why haven't I met them?Where are they?

When we can't seek and find someone to help us or talk to that will understand and help we become in this vortex of feeling utterly alone that's when the bad thoughts come!

I hear you my Dear, I wish I could hug you and confort you... even if you and I cant believe it now, we will survive this and some day it wont hurt anymore.

Trauma after trauma since I was a child, which, I learned well how to repeat. 20 years of worthless therapy missed diagnosis, missed the correct treatment, I feel like I’ve missed out on my life and now I am 64. My husbands ex takes 3/4 of our money. I’m older now, I’m living in a one bedroom with 4 cats and my husband. We’re broke, scary broke while the ex sits on a million and a half dollar property. I flunked out of AA. I moved so much I’ve got no friends here. I try to be grateful for at least HAVING a home and food. But I’m dying. Inside I am so depressed I go for days without a shower now what?

I feel for your situation. Thank you for sharing. It's like us that suffer with depression.. really have our reasons why. I too lost... to me, everything that I loved and cared about. The trauma after trauma,.. we're TOO MUCH for me.. meaning my system, my brain. I have horrible anxiety, insomnia and severe depression too. I can't barely move, and have No desire to .. I too don't shower, brush my teeth. It's like I've turned completely OFF. I just wanted to say , I feel the same... im 62.

We cannot give up. As long as I draw breath I will tie a knot and hang on to the end of my rope because I know there must be something out there that will inspire me again. Thank you for your comment and your courage to tell your truth. You helped me a lot. The truth of the matter is that I know what my flaw’s are. If you want to learn where you need work on yourself, just get into a relationship with a malignant narcissist. It is very diagnostic. Do you think there is time left?

@richardbortnick3181 Thank you for replying and caring. I'm glad you still have alitte hope... of inspiration down the line. You do have hope I can tell. You won't give up. You're a strong person. Loosing my career job has destroyed me. And knowing it was my foolish mistakes, and miss information, and miss understanding... I lost my job. It has destroyed my mental health. Stressed 24/7. Panic attacks,.. lowest mood, .... I had a mental breakdown. I suffer from severe depression. It's negative ruminating quicksand. I don't take care of myself, I can't sleep, don't excersize, eat only junk. I don't leave the apt. I totally lost interest in life. Depression is horrible, it's killing me! .. and im helpless, hopeless, and afraid..... my health is failing and my eyesight has failed me. 😞

May She Rest In Good GOD'S Presence.

This was insightful. Nothing is so bad that we have to die and inflict pain on ourselves or loved ones. The new age movement thinks we’ll come back, or just float around being one with the universe. You won’t RIP. We will all stand before the Lord and give an account. It is appointed once for man to die and you won’t come back as something else. I pray God has mercy on her soul. Not judging, she was wonderful to watch and admire, but God gave her everything and she rejected his gift. People, Your pain and depression will pass. It’s a lie from the enemy to take Your own soul. Be careful in your meditations and what spirit you are listening to. I have my own struggles. Jesus came to bring life. This is real folks and time you hear the truth. No one wants to talk about the reality that your creator is reaching out and wants to save you.

I've kept going for the last 15 years. When is it going to get better? It looks to me like it's not so I'm just hanging on for other people so they don't experience the pain of me leaving abruptly. I want out so bad.

Lyme disease gave me all-over body pain years of it. doctors can't help. I took the antibiotics and repeat more antibiotics when months are getting harder. I take tramadol the largest dose and am still in pain. The doctor thinks my depression causes pain. Yes, but I know what came first body pain then a depressed state. I have been living one day at a time for years due to never knowing how I will feel. I can't plan anything. Once in a while, I do have a good day. tho they seem to be getting fewer and longer apart.

A Smile on the outside, but inside hurting like hell. Poor girl. I hope I never become that desperate.

It hurts too much to live 😢😢

Always great to hear from you

One thing that can give me an absurd and imediate relieve to anguish and depression is cryinh but as much as I try Im unable to cry , I just can't cry and that's terrible. This is a consequence of our machist education. And that's why I envy só much women....and Im not being ironic here but deeply sincere. Not being able to cry increases depression...

It is true that men have difficult the crying including myself. If you have a counselor per haps you can work on ways to do this.

I live in a wonderful life ... beautiful partner, loving family, 2 sweet pooches, great job, nice home, nice car, doin ok financially...but here I am ... gripped in anxiety & melancholy...and wondering what's it all about...why am I like this...does it even matter whether I existed or not....and guilt....for even feeling this way for no reason....and frustration...that I am wasting it all away....

A great attitude creates a great day, which makes a great week, a great month, a great year which makes a great life.

Sometimes getting your medication's balanced can be very hard for people with a severe problem of depression. Awm

I searched " too much pain" ... ive never felt this kind of fear, horror, inability to do anything. RETIREMENT!, ... gave me stress, anxiety, insomnia.... and depression. & took away my self security, my identity, purpose, social interactions, friendships at all levels. I don't want to live like this everyday! How to endure this... 😫

@loraherbst6127 Thank you for caring about me. Yes, all of the above,.. are horrible. I'm still unable to sleep, with assistance. My stress level are too high,... and my situation cannot get resolved,.. Im told now by everyone, Friends, family, neighbors, and professionals..... its all up to me @ this point. Meaning, they can only give advice and different solutions. I'll never get my career fun job back. And the guilt I have is terrible. I'm not adjusting to life without my job. If only I could see this , the way others do.... I might be okay. Did you also,.. loss a job you loved? Are you suffering from that horrid depression too.? I didn't know depression was so bad.

That gentle reassuring tone, and the somber hopeful, yet matter of fact delivery. Its one of the better book pitches I have seen. I'm suicidal with hatred and disgust. When I see people like you seeking to exploit the vulnerable over and over and over it makes me see red. Every virtue I was ever taught was a lie. Every hero a villain. Every single human, to the last beating heart is vile. I hate every second of this unfair existence and that of my fellow man as well. They have only enough moral understanding to be held accountable.

Thank you Douglas

I used to think when it hurts too much is when people want to take their own life ... but I m realising not always ... when it hurt too much I didn't have the energy or will or... to have the courage .. but when the pain is gone or significantly reduced, I feel this is when some people take their life .., knowing that remissions (in chronic issues) are temporary ... something people miss is that our life is not like a movie you watch over Netflix and then due to tough times you just pause .and when u are better, you re-pause ... things have changed, people around u have changed and moved on ... so when someone gets better is when they see what they have lost and that is when they really find the will to take their life

I like pretending to be the version of me who enjoys life and was never hurt the way I was. Not that I don't enjoy life at all. I just became a grandfather, and it's the best thing to ever happen in my life besides having had my own children. But I still feel the pain there. Hiding, waiting for me to lose focus. Because if I don't consistently focus on how I'm supposed to act like. I instantly fall apart, it never leaves me. I always feel like I want to cry. I don't, not even when alone. I don't want my kids to see how much pain I'm in. So I suffer alone, like I always have. I walk around wearing a mask. Never showing what's inside. I don't want burden others with my pain. My suffering makes me stronger in many ways. But as I get stronger, so does my pain. Its always there, like my shadow. That's way I stay in the dark, so my shadow doesn't show. .... I am in great pain, please help me.

I will pray for you ❤!!!!! Wait and Jesus will come to your heart, comfort you as only He can. He is your Father and loves you and knows, understands. He knew you before you were born❤

but, when you are depressed the LAST thing you want to do is reach out for support. when it feels like you have concrete blocks on your feet you don't feel you can drag yourself to exercise. When the concrete blocks disappeared I have still been very depressed. I work out at the gym now and occasionally it has some.Ive tried soo many medications. most had bad side effects. I am on 2 antidepressants and one mood stabilizer. I'm still depressed.Not crying all the time but ready to. I have an amazing loving husband of 39 years. He tries really hard to help me. I want to be better for sure and never deal with this hell again!! I have been trained in CBT. It does help a little but not a lot. I hate the weight gain and no libido due to the drugs.I just want to disappear cuz it would be easier for everyone. I wish I was at the place you are. Wake up joyful and happy

Thank you, so much, for your videos. Your words of wisdom and encouragement are like rays of sunshine.

It's all very well talking about social supports, but what if they're not available to you? What if you ARE alone...?

This doesn't work if you have treatment-resistant depression which I've suffered from for 40 years. For some of us, it just does not get better.

Exactly how I feel.

Hi doug I'd be happy if God took me tonight in my sleep am lonely Isolated. Depression anxiety which never seems to go now.

Karen, it’s good to hear from you. I am sad that you are in so much distress. I know only too well what it’s like to be exhausted and ready to give up. What kinds of treatments have you tried. In 2016 I eventually had to try ECT and fortunately it worked. Have you tried other things besides medication. Here’s a website that I just created to help people like yourself who are doing the suicidal pain. Please look it over. It may be something on it had to be helpful. www.overcomingsuicidalpain.com If you email me, I can send you some links to some more resources. douglasbloch@gmail.com Also, you might want to call a prayer line called Silent Unity. They can give you some powerful spiritual support. 1-816-969-2000

I don't have depression but sometimes I do feel like I can't do it anymore. I was diagnosed with PTSD four years ago. It's not easy because it's like I'm in an endless loop.

You know when im happy? For about five seconds in the morning when i first wake up. Before I remember who I am and what my life is all about. Pain, suffering, diarrhea more often than not. I dont know if theres an afterlife, but who cares. No hell could be worse than this meaningless march through my empty days. When will the fantasy end, when will the real life begin?

thats how I feel, it hurts too much to live. BUT I have no suicidal ideation most of the time.
