I watched this 20 times in hopes that I would start to believe it.

The cost of that help outweighs my hope

Your words are like a beacon of light in a vacuum filled with darkness. Thank you for all that you do 🙏🏼

The Devil lies. I try to remember that when I fall into depression and negative thoughts. Someone once said it means something great is going to happen and the devil hates to see you be better. Thanks.

I spent years on psy experimenting with psy meds and in a depression, it continued only to get worse. I had to take action and do what I knew would benefit me, and come off all the meds. It was the hardest thing I have had to do my entire life emotionally, mentally, and physically. It took over six months to start feeling back to normal, then another 6 more to stop having manic episodes and get use to feeling my emotions. Now, I am balanced, mentally stable and learning how to regulate my emotions by using several 12 step programs, books and the internet, facing my past and learning about it, mediating and maintaining a spritual connection every single day. For a lot of people growing up in dysfunctional home, suffering from addiction, not being taught how to handle their emotions or most importantly motivate there self’s and kill the inner critic, and the processed food and sugar addictions have mental health issues.

There is ALWAYS a Root-cause to Mental illness.

I’ve experienced both mania and depression and I honestly think depression is more convincing, at least to me. It just feels so real. Even after the feelings of intense depression fade, the negative views of oneself don’t. I have to actively combat them everyday.

Meanwhile, with mania, once you’re out of it you’re like, “Well, those grandiose feelings were weird and unrealistic.” They are just less believable.

How is it lies, I've had since an early age. I've had YEARS upon years of therapy/meds/treatment
I'm 44, and at the end of my tether. I have no desire to die/self harm. As I lost my husband to suicide. And wouldn't put my kids through that. I sincerely believe some of us are just far too sensitive for this cruel, cut and paste world

Been fighting for 30 years already. Seems like depression isn't lying to me.

I really needed to hear this today. Thank you

When I was young, there were some days when I couldn't feel any emotions, leaving me with a sense of infinite hopelessness that couldn't be described. It happended randomly, without any reason, and only lasted one day. That was so strange, I wonder if anyone experienced a similar thing

Recovery is a myth, 30 years and the black dog still chases me

I'm having a really hard time with depression and my psychiatrist keeps prescribing mood stabilizers, ADHD medications, antipsychotics, and no antidepressants. I'm getting more and more depressed and this is going on for months! I don't even know how to talk to him about this. What is he doing to me?

[MebratWoldearegay]

Thank you so much for sharing this amazing health benefits always🙏 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

It’s just a bit much when you finally start to feel yourself get better just to randomly backslide into a vicious episode. Rinse and repeat.

[josephthompson]

The doctors focus on ssri medicine. It didn't get better until I was on a dopamine medication.

I’m in the U.K. I have been on prescription opioids for 14 years and can’t stop. There’s no help for me, even from charities, and psychiatrists will not see me as they say it’s against their policy to treat people who are taking opioids. I am chronically depressed with no help and no hope.
