I've been depressed for close to 20 years...
I just try to stay active and have a good time. Throw parties, talk to people, go boating, go fishing.... That type of stuff makes me feel better, I kinda forget about depression when I'm engaged in an activity....
IMO, a hobby is the best to deal with depression... When I was a kid I was happy collecting vintage sports cards and fishing... I'm starting to do both again and I'm feeling much better....
Those things don't necessarily work for people with depression. Can be surrounded by the best things, but still feel depressed and miserable. A major characteristic of severe depression is that the things you enjoy, you no longer find enjoyment from. So it frequently nullifies "having fun".
You need to do things that made you happy as a kid - that's the trick...
I think people get old and bored with life, it's the same thing everyday for them and that's what makes them depressed. At least that's the way I feel, but I try to change it up a bit.
Whenever I feel really depressed I go out an play darts, pool - go to a bar and talk to people then after while you forget about it and just have a good time. You come home and think to yourself "that was different but fun."
As a person who has been depressed for a long time I think depression is obsessive....
I've had depression, but never considered killing myself. Everyone experiences it different....and for you guys to be here telling eachother to "try again" or "jump off a fucking bridge" is ridiculous!
I don't mean to be offending when I say this, but to me, only a person who doesn't believe that there is a Hell would look at suicide as a form of self defense instead of self murder thinking that things will be better for them once their life down here has ended. If I could ask them, my only questions for a person who has taken their life would be this two: 1.) What is it that made you think that taking yourself was the best thing to do? 2.) Do you feel better now?And I disagree. I hope that it will be decriminalized someday, since I'm not staying here if I develop alzheimer's.^^^ I think that suicide is murder too.

Oh nick, you're such a stupid braggart. Don't even know how dumb you sound.
You would think somebody so awesome as you would actually be able to succeed in offing yourself. Try again.
Do us all a favor and take your lil ass and jump off a fucking bridge.....
Show us all how bad life is punk....
Show the world how bad and depressed you are.... Eat the gun.
I thought eating a gun takes courage and conviction? Be the standup individual you never were in life and eat that shit.....
Naw, you don't want to die - you just want sympathy, you want to be a victim.......

I had a friend commit suicide. It's very devastating.
That is why I said, "If I could ask them..."I'd be impressed how you could ask them question number 2.....cause, after all, they are dead.I don't mean to be offending when I say this, but to me, only a person who doesn't believe that there is a Hell would look at suicide as a form of self defense instead of self murder thinking that things will be better for them once their life down here has ended.

Sometimes a Charles Manson has to be held accountable for making other people commit murder.People are blaming Nancy Grace for the suicide of a woman.
Woman who killed her baby and was dubbed
Now. I once had a friend whose husband blamed her in his suicide note. She is adamant that no matter what he did, she is in no wise responsible for his death. She didn't contribute, she didn't cause, she doesn't own it.
Kids have committed suicide over bullying.
My question today is: Do you believe a person or persons can drive another to lose their will to live, and then act on it.
Yes I tried killing myself since I was 5 years old, literally. Not threatening. I decided life isn't worth it and that death is better
Fuck this pussyassed thread.
You can unsubscribe, you know. Although since you posted again after this post, I have to assume you have no willpower to speak of.
That must suck the hind tit something fierce.
*ever, in the last sentence
The line that really gets me in Starry, Starry night is "But I could have told you, Vincent; this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you."
When I'm not on anything for depression/anxiety (3rd gen gave birth to 4th gen - oh, the joy), it feels like every bullet out there is meant for me. I told my therapist (the one I had after The Snapping) that I feel skinless. Everything, no matter how innocuous, hurts.
Life's not supposed to feel like that.
In addition to the depression, I was raised by psychos. So I have PTSD.
I was off any form of anxiety/depression meds for two years, while I was unemployed, but freelance writing. Then I got this job, which had insurance, and went back on my meds. *different ones this time, I couldn't afford the $50 copay of Lexapro, and they didn't have a generic.* Know why I went back on? Because I was tired of crying Every. Fucking. Day. Every day, tears were involved at least once. Do you KNOW how old that gets.
Any rate. Enough about me. What do you think about me?
