You've gotten a lot of us through tough times, and your videos got me out of the most painful depression I've ever had in my life.

Please give it time, and just put one foot in front of the other, depression hates a moving target!!!

Medications can be the cause of this decline and depression, (tolerance, side effects, paradoxical effects) I've seen it in others. If you're on any benzos they cause depression, I'm struggling through that right now and trying to taper off. I'm in a very dark depression and feel horrible and it's from the meds. Don't overlook meds being a cause of what you're going through.Sometimes they make symptoms worse and cause more problems. Please hang in there, so many of us care about you and appreciate your help and support. You've helped so many and you're needed here. I hope you heal and feel better soon

We Love You Doug, your advice works for me ... I have You in my Heart Today.

Survival plan for living in Hell

If you are on the edge of the abyss, don't jump.
If you are going through hell, don't stop.
As long as u r breathing there is hope.
As long as day follows night there is hope.
Nothing stays the same forever.
Set an intention to heal, reach out for support and you will find help 🙏

-Douglas Bloch

[Krystal]

God who breathed life into you Douglas is watching over you! 🙏🤗🙋‍♀️❤️

[wakeupjoey]

before you do ECT, why not try detoxing from your meds and trying something else? I look forward to seeing you feeling better and letting us know what helped you through this painful time. Your depression lies to you. It tells you that you do not have anything left, but you absolutely do. You have helped many people and will again.

Dr. Bloch, thanks to your guidance and your support I've gone through some very dark times of my life. You're of deep significance for me and many others out there. I'm fully aware a statement like this doesn't have magical properties but I felt like saying it, because at the very least I owe it to you. I had a realization some time ago I wanted to share with you.

That being said I wanted to share with you that I've been helped massively by the power of pure contemplation. I'd say it's the opposite of meditation, in the sense that it involves us observing the world out there without the least bit of interpretation or judgement. I wonder whether this could be of help for your or anyone else. Through this, one is allowed to take in our senses as opposed to just trying to feel "our" breath, "our" body, and so on. You're also able to realize this way that being so small in the universe can help put your own condition in perspective, harsh as it may be. At any rate I wish you all the best

[cherolynrowland]

Your videos have helped me so much throughout this last year. I wish there was a way that I could help you get through this time.

[ajc]

Glad to see you back, Douglas. Was a bit worried. I send you lots of love and healing prayers every day. Hope the energy touches you enough to put you back on your path back to good mental health again. God bless, Douglas.

[babbaruff]

Douglas please hold on, you are so important and loved 🤗

[clintonjames]

Have a great Father's Day today Doug ! Enjoy time with your family and cat today until the next live session. Praying for your recovery and breakthrough ASAP! You are greatly loved and appreciated on here. I gained resilience and more hope from your therapy in the past 3 years, much more than my therapy I go to. Holding the high watch Sir !

[Contessa]

Doug, bless you. I am not strong in my faith, but I am definitely going to pray for you, my friend. You don’t know how many times you’ve helped me. Love you so much Doug

[aaaaancly]
