So many  of you do not know me,but  will tell a story that may help  Janey.

When i was younger [ yr away from 60 now] i tried to commti sucide twice as you can  tell not succesful, hated way i looked,when really down not uncommon to run into a mirror,did cut myself lucky not to the extreme,saw Doc got pills,sold em,was determined never to take them, then at 40 everything hit me like a steam train, lost 5st[70lb] in 3 months started drinking heavily at weekends,was still eating  well,but ignored it,weight loss hid extra layers,till one weekend,got totally smashed drove home tarmac looked like pitch black no light job,made it  home whole 1/4 mile,on the Saturday walked into the pub got confronted by bar staff, any more that two, if we have to pin you down were taking keys off you,got home later[ will say was staying at exwifes,we now back together as moved out for a yr],she invited an ex girlfriend round[  lol it was when i was 16 they get on great and always take the piss out of me lol], my  missus made me  lif up up my top to show how much weight i  had lost, basic all that was there was a ribcage and no stomach[skeletal] she burst into tears and said " what have you done],thats when the bells went off i realised i was in trouble.

*** weight  14st 196lb  to 9st 126lbs roughly

 

So off to Drsi went got offered Prozac few others sleeping pills and because of rapid weight loss pills for maybe stomach ulcers, as well  as a voluntary 2 week stay in a Physco Hosp,which i turned down nicely,So the Point!! tada

 

For many  you have to realise your in trouble and take the responsibilty,but to help yourselfyou have to take charge of the  noggin[ brain],pills yeah they will help, but unless you take control to there just a crutch,as for the pills never took one, i framed the script,things got bad  use to look at it as say no chance,.

Yes friends helped a bit ex to, but i had to make myself smile again[ which helped a lot] also remembering theres many many more people on this planet that are a heck of a lot worse off than you or  i am and have barely nothing. Yeah sometimes you find that corner to have a cry, but smile its one of the best cures we have,BUT YOU NEED TO HELP YOUR SELF TO or IT wins,freinds colleagues all can help but you are the one that needs to do it.

 

Things sometimes may look like it will never end,but it will ,you will get there,you will have many more ups and downs ,smile  your not going to let it win.

Yes i am Male 59yrs old and not afraind to talk about it also an ugly bastard lol  as you can see here lol .

Hey, I don't know what you are going thru or feeling, but sounds like you are a bit depressed?  Have you tried any of those anti-depressants?  (Prozac, for example)  Some folks have less serotonin in their brains, some have a lot more, I think Goldie Hawn is famous for having a lot of serotonin, making her basically happy thru life.  Heck everyone should have the ability to be happy thru life, right?  So having a med that will up the serotonin that might do the trick.  Also, changing things up - a move to a new place or new town or new career, a new hobby, follow your bliss, learn a new topic that interests you. 🌎  Gosh this world is so fascinating and there is so much out there to wonder about. ANYHOW, here is a link about depression and meds -->  https://www.brainfacts.org/diseases-and-disorders/mental-health/2019/rethinking-serotonins-role-in-depression-030819   hope that helps, feel happier  Springtime is such a pretty time of year.  🌼

Thanks everyone for the advice. I've been diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety disorder with panic attacks. I've also been seeing a psychiatrist for the past 6 years and am on antidepressants.  About 6 years ago 2 of my brothers and my only sister died, then I had a nervous breakdown. I'm not ashamed to talk about it as it is simply the way I am now. I also have a degree in counseling and am now seeking a position through my Parrish as a peer support specialist.  I obviously go through severe depressive episodes... which is why I posted. I get to a point where I'm so depressed that I forget to do the things I enjoy. As I consider many of our clan members as friends, I hoped ppl would reach out. And some did. And I played and felt better.

Panic attacks are horrible..  My psychiatrist has me on seroquel & alprazolam.. Seroquel helps a lot with sleeping.. Xanax with panic disorder..

Yep, we all have our troubles but we shouldn't fight amongst ourselves, at least not seriously. This post began with Janey, and bless her she needs our help and friendship, as well as our support, understand her suffering and admire her honesty, she deserves no less from the clan.

I too am suffering, I am in great pain, and as you notice am sleeping even less than normal, managed a couple of hours, so might be a bit slow in game today, life's a bitch but it's still life, fu.

Aerobic exercise...walking...it gets the juices flowing & oxygen to tissues that hardly get any during day-to-day activities...especially when in the midst of a sedentary clinical depression.  Walk, exercise in some form; & when you feel like stopping, walk a little further.  Then one day you realize you don't feel as depressed as you did.  This helped with several of my cyclical troughs within the dark valley.  Just a matter of deciding & resolve.  And counseling, of course.

I would caution against use of SSRIs e.g. citalopram.  The brain is not a chemistry experiment and these harmful drugs will take you to the edge of the precipice before yanking you back (hopefully).  Doctors love them because it is a cheap "fix" and they don't actually have to lift a finger to help you.  My current GP honoured my request for no more chemicals and signed me up to a counsellor who then stopped holding sessions due to Covid!  Curiously, I am better equipped to deal with misery...
