I’m 29 in a month, was diagnosed with major depressive disorder at age 7, it’s hard and isolating. Didn’t have many friends at all, missed deadlines and sports practices because I just had to cry that day. I was under the impression I’d just magically be happy once my brain fully developed. Medication helps lots of people, it helped me on and off, but it’s exhausting sometimes. It does get better tho. Like people told me all my life it would get better and I refused to believe it, I thought I was the outlier, the exception. People will tell you they feel the same way but your brain won’t comprehend it. But it actually does get easier. Talk to professionals or therapists, be honest and open, and show them you want to understand the things you’re feeling, because understanding the chemical imbalance will help with the most important part of diagnosed depression: acceptance. It’s not the end of the world even though almost every day feels like it. The worst thing you can do is convince yourself you’re not feeling sad or that you’re not depressed. It’s an illness at the end of the day; acknowledge the bad feelings and the good ones when they occur, don’t try to ignore them as some days are better than others, and some days you’re back at square one. Learn what works for you, what makes you feel safe. acknowledge the dark so when the light comes you appreciate it even more. Anyways, long and in-cohesive way of saying I see you and I love you stranger, everyone’s journey is different

Being around people is the best thing I could do. Having things to do. Being forced to do things. It will not last forever.

Some of these comments don’t seem to understand clinical depression. I’ve started taking care of myself more during depressive episodes and it doesn’t change anything. I go to the gym, I try socializing as if it’s all good, I stay on top of things, all the good stuff. It’s still just a sucky feeling I have to wait out. It’s not a mindset issue.

it's also hard not feeling like a total disappointment to ppl because like yea. I do everything in my power to help this and it still prevents me from showing up at 100% pretty much ever unless I'm masking 😭😭

Self soothing techniques🙏 it takes a lot of practice and I’ve been in therapy for over a decade not the whole time just going in and out and seeing different people, the best thing you can do for yourself is enrich your life and find hobbies to keep yourself present. I like the quote that talks about how anxiety is living in the future and depression is living in the past, which is true when you think about it. It takes a lot of self checking and forcing yourself to do things when you even don’t want to called opposite action it’s a DBT skill, and if you can’t afford therapy, you can buy a DBT book for $12 online and it has a bunch of journal prompts that help you figure out things that you would talk about in therapy

ive come to terms with the fact im not going to live the life i want nor an extravagant one. my life will be dull, but i focus more day to day and tried to do small things that distract me like hobbies and work. some days its easier others are hard but its just life and will be until the day i die

Ive been depressed for as long as I can remember. I was abused as a child, till I was around 12yrs old. I have A ton of trauma, and my mental disorders really have been killing me slowly. I feel stuck in the past, but my memory is so spotty. Sometimes i dont remember if stuff actually happened or not. Ive been getting treated for my depression since I was 12, and Im turning 21 this month. I cant believe it! I feel mentally stuck at 16, mostly because I never thought Id make it out of my teens. My depression was recently deemed treatment resistant. I was pitched The idea of Spravato (ketamine treatment) and I was so scared, but living the way I do, and knowing that I need to try until something helps, I started the treatment about a Month ago now, and while my depression Is still there, I feel a little less heavy, and my thought about dying have been less and less through out my treatment. TLDR: you matter, and there is something out there that will help you. Never give up.

Keep a maintainable routine. Gotta do the same things u do during your ‘good’ and low days. Exercise, show up for yourself even when it’s the last thing u wanna do. Just know the episode will eventually pass, and try to keep it pushing. Mindset really doesn’t help me, but keeping structure in my life helps me continue moving forward. Busy+ distractions help the time pass. I’m also medicated but tbh it doesn’t do much for me here

idle hands buddy, you need to put the phone down and go out there and get in the mix. go see a movie, dribble a ball, call a friend, cook a new recipe, apply for a job you might not be good at, at first, stop and let the sun hit your face, compliment a stranger, go to an event in your town(start by checking facebook events). just get out and the rest will work itself out

I lowkey think that depression is a sign that we need intense change in our life but we use meds just to be able to deal with it instead of change
