Depression has stolen my truth, and it's not easy to fight.

"You don't measure up." Yes, that's a common one.

“Connection” is more important than one might think✌️ This is my 3rd time in my life when I have mild symptoms of depression.. what all do they have in common? No connection. This woman is amazing ❤

Depression really is like living with Stockholm syndrome, but the perpetrator is your own mind and the darkness within.

I grew up as a young boy with my mother having depression. I realize it's more to it than we may realize. We need to learn how to first recognize what's going on with our loved ones because it's not easy to get help on our own. Like medicine sometimes we need to be encouraged to take it. BRAIN chemistry is really what is out of control . Somehow we need to return it to normal without damaging BIG PHARMA POISON😢😢😢

It plants these thoughts in the parents of those suffering, too and affects their confidence in their ability to do anything right.

[kathleensmith]

And you never know how many rescues you accomplished that day. Thank you for stepping out in faith. It is no accident you were given your gifts.

First explanation that makes it crystal clear what depression is. Thank you!

[SathiNair-kp]

I was feelings depressed. These lines lit up

[KendyJ]

Mine manifests itself as aggravation and spite for myself and everyone around me. It feels so hopeless sometimes. I’m medicated for it again and it’s helping. I’m also medicated for my ADHD again too along with some great birth control. I’m feeling even.

I definitely needed to see this today. Thanks for all of your thorough and thought provoking videos. I’m learning so much more about myself.

[jadedjaws]

Truth right here. I was hurt by so many people so many times and suffer from abandonement paranoi to the point after so many friends left me, I left all my friends and socially isolated myself because no one could hurt me if I stopped caring about them first. But you cant cut people off like that, and I only made my situation so much worse because I did the opposite of what i should have done. People need people. People need to trust.

[kellyberry]

Thank you Dr.
It's so nice to have you remind me, to take it easy on me every now and
I do appreciate you!

[sabinaperry]

I love u so much. I am so grateful that I came across your YouTube about a year ago. I am a disabled veteran and felt like I had no purpose and no motivation. And I started watching your videos and that triggered my journey to recovery. I am now peer Counselor at a VA hospital!

[clujbnf]

It also tells you "this is it, it will never get better" the worst lie of all

[kathleendavidson]

I find the life never going to get better is the hardest one.

[dubyabalthazar]

Jesus, the way u described this, does make it sound like a demon or something, especially the part where the lies keep u stuck in a loop.

[clintparsons]

I just had this sudden epiphany that this must be the way people with Schizophrenia must feel when they are stable and not in psychosis.

Robbed me blind years and years ago, I've never recovered. I have lived in a constant state of despair, self loathing, ideations (with a name that shall not be spoken), debilitating anxiety, on top of having a genetic disorder that causes quite a bit chronic issues (ehlers danlos, the list of issues is a mile and a half long). I have not been able to see a way out of this dark hole since day one. Therapy didn't help, having a wonderful and blessed life hasn't helped, having healthy children who grew up and have their own healthy children now didn't help. There is seemingly no way out for me. It's a horrible existence, and it's led me down some awful, addiction filled paths. I hope that I find something, some day.
