Causes of Major Depressive Disorder

[DrJanelleSinclair]

I like how you mention that there is not one cause of depression. It is a very multifactorial problem, and both the body and mind should be addressed.

The loneliness is as private, as it is personal, yet alive as it is empty!

I spend all day in the YouTube comments section. My doctor said, “ That’s why you so depressed. “

Everybody that has commented on this well done, you’ve done the first step now speak to people that will help if that’s a doctor or parent or friend whatever, trust me if you talk about it you will feel so much better can’t stress enough how important it is to let it out

I have hereditary and severe depression (since I was about 8) and my father yells at me for sleeping my day away, skipping meals, non social ways, and overall down ways of life. I have been hospitalized for this and it’s getting worse and idk what to do.

You get depressed if you get sick and you can not function as before. You get depressed if your friends leave you or if your family leaves you. You get depressed if your life dreams get taken away from you. You get depressed if nobidy takes you seriously. If you feel like you are worthless. If you do something you dont like and so on and so forth. If your vision has been taken away

I have depression I was just rlly curious

[waqasahmed]

The psychiatrist that I went to was such an a**hole that he diagnosed me as schizophrenic even though i have no hallucinations or delusions of any sort and he prescribed me an antipsychotic drug instead of an antidepressant. Thank god that I was educated enough to know these things and I started taking antidepressants which the junior doctor prescribed me otherwise I would have committed suicide for sure. Its a miracle that Im alive right now even though I still feel that being dead is much better than being alive.

The only cause of my depression is my parents.

[waqasahmed]

I think depression is genetic. I became automatically more and more depressed and suicidal as I grew up, negative thoughts constantly used to come in my mind which was extremely painful but when I started to take antidepressants everything magically changed. The first time I took antidepressants I stopped in just one month thats why I didnt recover fully but now that it has recurred I will take them for a much longer period this time. But I still dont think that I will be able to recover 100%.
