Yesterday I managed to tell a friend of mine to call me. And to tell another one to come over. So they did. And I talked to them and I played uno with the other one. Although I didnt eat yesterday, this gave me motivation to get up today, go shop for bread, and eat.
I am glad you reached out + asked for what you needed. If I don't eat, my blood sugar plummets - I become a cranky jerk. I encourage you to eat! Thanks everyone for supporting us.
Today I cleaned part of my apartment. I am a photographer. I got out + photographed behind the old Kmart. I have been doing so for like 6 years. I visited a gallery, where an acquaintance has a studio. I spoke with 2 potters. Another nearby gallery is closed on Sundays. I drove to 1 of the artsy areas in Asheville, NC.
It is a battle. Each day is a constant battle but it is something alot of people are dealing with but don't always talk about it. God bless each one. My prayers are with you.
Just stumbled on your channel as Ive been increasingly searching more on the subject matter. Dealing with serious depression and anxiety for the first time. I found so much of what you explained so relatable. Thank you for sharing, you deserve so much more.
Today the first thing I did was minfullnes because I woke up with a racing heart, I stood up and had breakfast, I made my bed and did some yoga, then I got ready a little and from there I spent my time watching UA-cam but I already feel better :)
1. Putting my phone away = makes me overthink more and my head becomes a roller coaster in the middle of a storm, and I get anxiety, watching TV may help a little, but becomes boring 2. Drinking water = no problem, it's great 3. No Caffeine / Coffee = my brain turns vegetative, numb, torpid and simply closed and dry, I experience a lot of 'empty thoughts' without content that makes me tired 4. Inner work / things I want to achieve = no coffee > no content in my brain, I don't know what I want, don't know what to write down, head kinda hurts sometimes especially in the morning if I skip just one espresso, making plans with a friend (I do this via phone texting) but even if I do it... these plans may never actually be accomplished, but the rest of the things said I do this regulary 5. Meditation = yeah, helps for anxiety when needed, but doesn't help with depression 6. Pets = I have a cat, and he does his job good 7. Books = i'm dyslexic, reading just 2-3 pages can give me a headache, and sometimes I read but I don't understand what i'm reading at all due to overthinking and thoughts 8. Getting outside = I do this almost every 2 days, but just for like a drive and a short walk for 5 mins, or shopping We all appreciate the effort. This may work for some people with mild depression and just temporary episodes, but not for everyone.
Of course we are all different, maybe keep a record of the days you’re feeling a little brighter and the things you did that day to start trying to figure out what helps. Worked wonders for me!
i think loving yourself together with looking after yourself is absolutely crucial in all this. it may be hard to face & navigate etc but it's currently what i'm facing because i know in my heart that it is the root of the problem. you must remember that you are wonderful in your own way. if you don't love yourself, you MUST work on that and be gentle on yourself as you look for a way to connect back to yourself. good luck everyone X, ..and remember we're all the same 'form' (the human form) and we're all made up of the same things, and the freedom of many paths means we get lost sometimes as we explore
Here in Asheville, I feel my seasonal depression is kicking in. My main emotional concern is about letting go of a woman at yoga. She is healing from a 💔. I may be completely leaving the studio 😂 I started there in 2/15. Ah, the sun is out stronger ❤❤. Thankfully, I am in therapy with a LCSW who is helping me with skills. Right now we are working on my getting my life in order + moving forward. My not emotionally available love interest is healing; I must build a life. I am introverted. It's hard for me to get involved. I am starting to connect with artists. Next month I will take a workshop on creative habits + attend 2 painters' openings. If anyone in this thread would like to see my photos, please let me know. Wayne Scank
Thank You for the video, Tasha! I have dogs myself, and I've fed them today which made me feel so good! And Your accent is so beautiful! Keep up the great work!
thank you so much for this, i needed it and i am so glad and appreciative your video popped up in my feed. :) i am already feeling a bit better just after watching it, and am feeling more motivated to do the things that i need to do. i hope you have a wonderful new year full of love and happiness. also, i love your dog :D.
Please don't give up. I wish I could give you a hug. I know how it feels Given up many times but I just try to cope. Sometimes I succeed sometimes I don't but keep on going My thoughts are with you.❤
Thanks im depressed due to physical disability very helpful. Have 3 pets at home a cat and 2 dog's will try do housework for them. I try not to do what i cant physically do. There are no accessible laundry facilities and ive dwarfism so i have to beg people to open the door. I have made formal complaint as its degrading also 33kg due to illness which i need to bring up a bit but ive a very small bone structure that stopped growing in childhood and im upset that i dont have the same access to other areas of my accommodation. Im a person with a disability. Im extremely lean and fit and do wonder is there some jealousy there. Anyone can get to my size but is it a good idea. I have to make my own clothes which can add to my sadness 21 inch waist and 31 inch hip. Ive been very thin all my life and severely bullied most i was a uk six. I had to train to 6 pack as my ribs not growing affected my balance. Ive been stared at and Photographed by strangers. Putting on a bit of weight is good but i know due to my stature it wont change much. Last time i was obese and caused severe pain. Im doing my best not to take that road and do the next right thing.
I am too depressive and still use medice like ativan and fridep, i have married and have 4 children, you must married too, tell about your condition i think you will gibe man to accept your condition, after that your live is better and dont forget still consultation with your doctor, happy fun girl dont loose with condition

What a brilliant video, Tasha. Beautifully scripted as well. Very relatable!
I'm falling into this deep depression that I feel like I can pull myself out of this

Thank you Joanna ❤️
There is a pill that will make it all better. And if you have clinical depression, you need medication. No amount of therapy is going to change that.
I have so much trauma
Its hard to get out of bed

Nothing about her electrical engineering job. Is the design overdue?
"You try and go back to sleep" with phone in hand. Lose the phone. It won't fix depression but social media makes it worse.
Coffee is a neurotoxin
Not really. Lots of studies have shown coffee is actually good and healthy for your brain if you don't drink more than 3 cups of it daily.
