Anxiety happens when you think you have to figure out everything all at once . Breathe . You're strong . You got this . Take it day by day .
I am feeling the same way too, I put too much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels. I am also glad to be part of this community.

Yes, he ships discreet and anonymous

I'm so sorry about your sister, Doctor Mike. It's so brave of you to talk to us about it. ❤️
I think we need to change this rhetoric of “brave” enough to talk about mental health, I believe everyone needs to talk about mental health openly. Someone died of a heart attack or a car crash and no one mentions you have to be “brave” to talk about these things and why do we have to be “brave” to talk about mental health. People need to educate themselves and open up. This is absolutely awful. And doctors in medicine and health care workers in general are doing such an awful job of education the public which is their first and foremost responsibility to make sure everyone is healthy because medicine is such a huge business that we actually want everyone to be I’ll yes we want people to become depressed and get anxiety and die. We actively want people in society to die. This is just to awful and comepletely disgusting. People need to wake up and contribute positively to society. You know all these bad things happening in society? They are not just occurring, they are happening because absolutely no one wants to step up to make a positive and healthy society. And so that is why you remark you have to be “brave” because absolutely no one cares about anyone else’s pain and suffering g. Such a shameful and disgusting society we live in.
I understand this on so many levels. I, myself, had family members who took their own lives. I started suffering from depression at 14.5 years when my menstrual cycles started. I have taken medication, sought counsel, and used personal health modes to control the cycles of depression.
I have a family history of fibromyalgia and after taking the 19-vaccine, my predisposition became full-blown condition. It took over 9 months to diagnose and then the medication I was given caused over 30 pounds of weight gain. After discussing it with my health professional, I decided, against their advice, that I was no better off dying from heart or liver disease, so I weaned myself off the antidepressant medication. Now I'm trying to find other medications or methods to control the nerve pain, fatigue, and depression that make this condition hard to control. I have an appointment with a different doctor this week, so hopefully this will be helpful.
So, when I say I understand the heartbreak of suicide and the formidable journey of depression, I actually do.
Just sending you some love 💜
"I'm trying to find" is perhaps the most important and hopeful thing. What Dr. Mike didn't mention is that some years ago, a study of pyschotherapists showed about 1/3 of patients feeled cured after five years. Which happens to be the placebo rate. For some people, some therapists are right, so don't be afraid to shop for one the same way you would try on shoes, if you can afford to.
And Dr.Mike probably would not be allowed to suggest alternative medicine, which must be looked at very carefully because it can be dangerous. But a lot of pyschotherapists are complaing that federal law MUST be changed to allow careful trials and study of psyllocibin. If you can do this safely, consider it. Or at least, look into it.
And in the last 15-20 years, doctors have taken to referring to the intestinal tract and microbiome as the third nervous system. Directly affecting serotonin levels, which are what most antidepressants are made to do.
Keep looking, keep trying. Don't be afraid to look outside the box. If I could only figure out why dogs ALWAYS start a new day with a playful mood and a smile...I envy them that.
St. John's wort can help make you feel better, but it had a bad effect on my stomach. Taking walks helps my mood. I walked five miles last Sunday.
the mensuration is probelm for many women i hope u are fine
I really feel what you are saying. I also have both depression and fibromialgya (also GAD) and life with it is so difficult. A lot of people doesn't see how grand is the struggle just to get out of bed and do the most basic things. I have always been an ambitious person and it's really discouraging being bothered by so many complications such as the widespread pain and the deteriorating condition of my mental health, but I still try to keep going and looking for better times to come. It's hard, it's really hard.
I worked many years in the field of mental health, and I am a survivor of a life long recurrent depressive disorder starting at age 9.. At age 66, I have been depression free for 11 years. There are various lifestyle, issues that help. Achieving meaningful goals in life etc... I also used a Psilocybin once at age 55, and I have been mindful of my gut health. I believe these two things were key in keeping the depressive episodes at bay. I also eat a low carb diet which I believe is invaluable in maintaining a healthy body, mind and spirit. I never had more than mild depressive episodes, but do NOT be fooled by the word "mild." I was able to continue to work through the episodes, but *just barely.* Best of luck to anyone living and coping with depression.
TIP: get all the narcissists/covert narcissists, borderlines, histrionics, malignant narcissists, sociopaths, and psychopaths OUT OF YOUR LIFE, if you want to maintain a life free from depression. It is one of the *most important mental health tasks* you can undertake, and it helps to keep you depression-free (and yes, gut health is CRITICAL to how we feel mentally due to the gut-brain connection and it being the largest part of our immune system).
People with psychopathology can DESTROY your physical health faster than you recognize, and cause your health to deteriorate, often DRASTICALLY...from the sheer subconscious stress your brain experiences just having them in your orbit. It TAXES YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS BRAIN...which has to stay in a state of alert each time you're in the vicinity of a pathological individual...only you may not be aware of it on a conscious level.
The field of mental health is FULL TO THE BRIM of people with severe psychopathology (both diagnosed and undiagnosed/well-masked)...and not just the people who are clients/patients, but the professionals and even "experts" in the field who go into psychology and psychiatry to better understand their own f'ed-up internal world (and the dysfunctional families who broke them).
I wish you very well in your recovery, and I'm so sorry that your depression started so very young. That almost sounds like something akin to bipolar depression, which is one of the true mental illnesses (not a personality disorder) that start so young. Keep kind, empathic, truly decent human beings around you as much as possible, as you keep the toxic, empathy-impaired, manipulators out of your life. Then, you will be better positioned to maintain the healthier mental state you've worked so hard to achieve currently.
It took me decades of reading the literature from multiple disciplines to truly connect all this, and my deep dive began back in the mid 90s when I developed leaky-gut syndrome, multiple food allergies (to foods I had eaten my entire life without issue), and a white blood cell count that was so high, the began testing...and retesting...me for HIV (as a 25 year old, married, monogamous female) because it threw my immune system into such disarray.
If this info doesn't help you, I hope it will help someone who reads it.
Best wishes to you! You're probably a kind, empathic, lovely person, as this is the type who often develops these issues after having been exposed to someone with a character disorder.
54, I hope to try psilocybin someday. I tended to get fired a-lot because I couldn’t function well but I have been steadily improving since 2012. I am so happy to be out of the acute phase.
I know somebody with depression that tried psilocybin. Unfortunately that person spent the whole trip in a room crying and later said it wasn't cathartic.
Thanks Dr. Mike for this video. Treating your mental health with multiple modalities can really work wonders in a person's life.
My age is 23 iam also same feeling and fear how to face this anxiety please answer me sir 🙏
Don't ever beg a cheater to come back. You can do better. You aren't virtuous for trying to salvage or "saving the children" - the children too, deserve better even if this is their bio parent. Intrinsic locus of control, growth mindset, and an approach mindset to your environment. Don't avoid. Cheating also has a negative impact on children, not just divorce.
I've cheated on a couple girls in my 20s, and I had serious problems including being heavily abused by my mother. Its not an excuse. I'm in my 40s now and even though I'm done with relationships of every kind, if I wasn't I know I would never cheat again. But, I wanted to say, I'm sorry it happened to you.
My heart goes out to you on the loss of your sibling to suicide. I can’t imagine how difficult it must be for you but it is evident that you are deeply motivated, & passionately committed to your profession as a healing physician 💞 thank you for sharing your perspective on the treatment of depression with clarity & truth regarding the various modalities. I believe there is no single solution for the treatment of depression because of it’s deeply individual complexities but what you’ve shared is highly insightful & informative. Those lucky enough to receive your care are indeed blessed.
Omg. This hits home but different reasons. I became depressed after retiring. I am 72 and have been suffering for a couple years. I sleep 12-14 hours a day. Most days I just stay in bed. I live alone. I have been seeking help along time.
I stressed out trying to prevent retirement.... after, I had horrible anxiety and... Depression. Lost all interests in life,.. and was self torturing myself realizing after...... I didn't have to,.. and I retired myself. I've lost all my weight, I have panic attacks every morning,... and with Stress episodes,.. my health has changed. Anhedonia slipped in the depression and...... I nolonger have pleasure or joy in activities..... Retirement was the worst thing I did,... and had altered my life... Along with friends family and neighbors... 😢
Thank you so much for this video. I've been battling depression for about two weeks. I recognize the triggers and have already implemented several of your suggestions: focus on good nutrition & not "comfort foods", keep up on the schedules for exercise & sleep, increase B & D vitamins, light therapy, & talk to trusted friends. If I still feel the need to seek counseling, I already know how to reach out for that help.
My deepest sympathies for your loss. Sadly, one of my brothers took his life. No one in the family knew he was in such dire mental anguish, as he had isolated himself. I think it's part of the grieving process to also feel guilty that "if only we knew...." and perhaps we could have helped.
I understand that there are at least three situations that are extremely stressful: a loss of a loved one in death, end of a marriage, and moving. It's good for us to be reminded that there is always help.
So sorry to hear about the loss of your sister!! Our condolences to you and your family, even though it's way overdue...
Man, he is so right! I took care of my mom who had depression, anxiety, bipolar and epilepsy. It was very hard, but we had some good times. Now I'm dealing with the depression since she died. It's hard. Changing diet, exercise and other factors do help to make me feel better. New experiences as simple as going for a drive and walking around the track in the park helped my mom also.
I've heard many good things about Psychedelics like the psilocybin mushrooms and their health benefits, I also heard it helps one get through addiction and depression. I'm just wondering where or how I can get my hands on them cause I'll love to give it a try, I'm passing through a state of terrible depression lately and it's killing me
When you've experienced psilocybin, the visions, the feeling that others feel, become really relatable and real. But when you haven't, it could sound very weird and wrong.
Mushrooms helped me overcome my addiction and I’ve never felt more in control. One year clean

@@userconspiracynut how to contact him?? Is it Instagram?
I just finished a trip (haven't had one for about 2-3 months) and it was a mess, it wasn't bad or good, it was weird, haven't ever had such a meh trip
kept going outside for a walk, like searching for something, but never found it, I just got back from working months abroad and wanted to trip but it felt off, everything felt unorganized and I was on edge most of the time, kinda felt lonely aswell, but oh well
SUGAR intake is a HUGE contributor to depression. I can tell u as a sugar head who figured this out WITHOUT going to a doc/shrink/psychologist. It's the first thing a person should assess for themselves instead of running to a doctor who wants to pump u with meds. Like Dr. Hansen said, most of the time, depression meds don't work, and the fact that the he say patient got into a healtheir lifestyle, THAT sounds to have been the real reason she got better as she most likely dropped her sugar intake.
My condolences to Dr. Hansen. While his sister's suicide was in the past, I know the feeling of being suicidal, A LOT, even as a child. Thankfully, eradicating sugar at a particular stretch in my life saved me. Best wishes.
Hi, this is me. How did you give up sugar?
@mxn1171 More willpower, desire, and determination than anything else but understand, falling off the horse is part of the journey. Build your mind little by little to never let it get to u that u may have indulged again, and it ain't easy. Once that is built, u can progress more into not actually indulging, or if u do, it won't be a free fall. The more sugar u can eat, the more depressed, hopeless, and unmotivated u can become. Once it becomes a part of your thinking that not all is lost and u can and WILL bounce back while you're going thru the storm.
That was how I started and believed in shoring up the mind to be the foundation. Your mind is who u are and if u don't work on learning about it and improving it, you're doomed to fail at beating whatever vices, bad habits or whatever u may have going on with yourself BUT there are.natural things u can consume and supplements that can help mitigate your blood sugar if u slip like cinnamon and ginger , potassium citrate, mulberry extract and berberine, among other things.Also, gymnema sylvestre and some other things can keep your cravings down.
@@mxn1171Ween off of it at a pace that is manageable. Reducing your intake over time until you’re confident in cutting it off completely is more manageable than quitting cold turkey.
I am in Toronto and have had bouts of anxiety attacks and depression. I was recommended to have citalopram which I take as we speak and you are absolutely correct. Some days are better than others. I have continued with the exercises and tried my best to get the right food. Thank you, Dr. Hansen.
I am sorry to hear about the loss of your sister.
During the period of Graves’ disease, the illness and the lack of income were the main cause of depression. The colourful rainbow of pills were prescribed and myGP asked me on every visit to recite the rainbow just to make sure I was compliant. Practically I was doped but in between doses I found my anguish, “I didn’t want to be like that… a zombie”, that was the time I used to google solutions like colouring and craft… my mind was busy while using my hands to create anything, as I was busy I forgot the medication until I was off.
Not all cases need the same treatment, mine was solved by “using my hands to keep the mind out of the problems”. I’m free from the condition but I know my hands are my best treatment.
So sorry for the loss of your sister Dr. Mike.
This video took a lot of personal courage to put out....Thankyou
Very sorry about your sister. Glad you are helping others
Doctor mike can you do a video on nutritional psychiatry? The gut and brain connection. Also, can you touch on seasonal depression.?The real data that shows the effectiveness of antidepressants. Lastly, i would like to know if brain scans can identify mental illness?
I my personal battle, turns out that I had a small and growing thyroid dysfunction. It was never serious enough to be forward in my Doctor's thoughts. BUT and soon as my PCP ran a thyroid
test and proscribed meds for that, my depression went away immediately. Like someone turned the lights on in the room. Therefore, IMO a thyroid function test should be a FIRST item at the top of any doctors list who is treating depression. In fact, I advocate for everyone getting a thyroid function blood test. If I had known this earlier, would have saved me 20 years of sub par life performance. Just so SIMPLE!
Try BLACK CUMIN SEED OIL...it's helps to rebalance and heal your thyroid 🙏🙏🙏
Did your basic thyroid function test show up as normal?
@@hm2011100 Unknown. It was only much later I learned they were low .
I have a family history of depression and have episodes of feeling depressed. What I find most helpful is outside aerobic exercise (going the gym doesn't do it for me). I need to raise my heart rate to increase levels of serotonin, NE and dopamine.
My condolences, Dr. Mike.
I can't even imagine how difficult it must have been for you and your family.
My sister has a schizophrenia diagnosis- and she's refusing treatment mainly because everyone is attacking her about how irresponsible she is because she isn't taking care of her children. She's isolated herself completely and because she lives in Austria, we can't technically do anything in terms of an intervention because of the law. They basically told us that we can't force her to get help unless she harms herself or attemps to harm someone else. It's really hard when you love someone but can't really do anything to help them.
I agree with that law. I'm pretty sure it's the same in the U.S.
@@infinitemonkey917 Basically the law doesn't allow intervention because health is considered a private issue but as so many mental health issues that let go brooding without checking and having detrimental consequences. There should be also a requirement for one to report the soundness of mind periodically.
May God mercy be upon you and your loved ones . Just ask Jesus Christ to help you and believe that He will help u ..Amen
@@johnnychang4233 I wholeheartedly disagree. You think everyone should be required to have regular mental health checks. That is absurdly totalitarian.
@@qtzt8278 Hail Satan !
3:45 90% persistent symptoms. Way back, the Atkin's diet (keto) sometimes helped along with exercise. Relationship quality also matters but it's something that's often very difficult to resolve. If with a narcissist, it requires breaking up. Peace.
I have suspected there are a lot of social factors at play regarding depression that standard treatments don’t address. “Support” is often still very hard for many people to find access to, outside of therapy and medications, for a multitude of complex reasons, including that people with depression might have difficulty identifying and vocalizing those issues.
Sorry, to hear about your sister. Thank you for making this video…it’s so important.
Exercise is as effective as any antidepressant med.
It can be for some people, but severe clinical depression requires a multifactorial approach.
It's the dopamine release that makes us feel happy after physical workouts. Not all dopamine is bad, only the cheap one.
This isn’t real depression, it’s a normal response to a loss and betrayal. Real depression is when everything is fine, no major loss or issues and you feel like you can’t go on living anyways.
Have you tried mushroom (lions mane) it helps in reducing or curing depression entirely.
All thanks to Dr. Mycology popularly known as Dwayne_myco who prescribed the required dosage needed in getting rid of depression

I'm sorry for the loss of your sister. Mental illness is a long-standing problem in my family and I lost my brother to suicide.
My sincere condolences to you Dr. Mike for the loss of your Sister. May God Grant her Soul a resting place. May God bless you with health and strength throughout your bereavement. 🙏🙏🙏❤️👍👌🇨🇦
How is it when I tried walking for 30-45 minutes, I don’t feel good. I feel tired and TICKED off.
Last year, I found 2 stray dogs (I thought they were lost dogs and maybe they were microchipped) so I decided to help them. It was freezing that night. 27°F and it got colder (24°F) I sacrificed my sleep (I found them at night) and I went EVERYWHERE, I called places, and NO ONE would help me with them.
Everyone was stressed. The dogs were stressed, my cats were stressed, I was stressed. It was not an easy week with them. And I walked those two big dogs twice a day for a week. I did not feel any better after walking them. I was TICKED off.
Mind body and soul :) I’d say the best way is to start doing things such as light exercise and practice healthy ways of coping. Start small baby steps is the key :)
Start with baby steps, and be consistent :)
I have anxiety and stuttered. For me, stuttering has been something that I would say has made decisions for me and has made me give up opportunities out of fear. I don't remember a day that I went to school happy when I was studying for fear of stuttering and being laughed at. Now I'm in college and I'm days away from entering the public speaking class. For many this is a challenge but for me it is something that I literally see as impossible. My thoughts drain my energy and my anxiety takes control. I started doing exercises to fight anxiety and it worked but at times like these I just feel tired and exhausted. I'm still learning English and I'm afraid to express myself considering everything else. I try my best and I know that there will be people who will say that it is not such a big deal but I believe that if a problem is bothering you then it is a serious problem, whatever it is.
10% of the people getting a depressive episode? The question is not what is wrong with the people but with the social system in this society. Are you even still able to imagine how bad this is?
Sorry to hear about your sister. Hope you are okay, Dr Hansen. Depression is a hard thing to publicly confess to from a medical professional. Unconscious Power dynamic is often at work in these instances. Thanks for sharing this
Another great video! Thank you Dr. H!
I'm really sorry about your sister.
She would be really proud of you... you've become such a decent human being.
Thank Doctor, for sharing your personal story. We all at one point have gone through depression. Sometimes we not even know it.
Dear Dr. Hansen, I am so sorry for your loss. You are very strong. Be well, take good care and fight the good fight. Kindly, Dennis
There's been some speculation recently that viruses are implicated in depression. (Also in Alzheimer's). Shin Jie Yong has a piece on Medium about it.
I first got really chronic depression after a girlfriend cheated on me with a former friend. I was battling with overthinking subconscious thoughts bombarding me when I said "I didn't feel like living" at the moment of pain.
Which I didn't mean it in the literal sense.
But I was dealing with retrusive thoughts from over thinking that gave me anxiety. Most of that came from childhood trauma from being yelled at for not doing things right.
I suffer from the depression up to now for almost two years since unemployment. Very often I got eating disorder and felt something anxiety as always when going outside. I decided to stay at home rather than going outside to meet my friends instead and there is day after the day. But luckily I really have no intention to suicide by myself. Hope everything changed after this period.
Mike, I'd be very interested in a video or series of videos examining nutrition and depression, if you have the time and inclination to make one. As an uninformed lay person I have a strong belief that a WFPB vegan diet has numerous benefits for mood but would welcome hearing the more considered thoughts of properly qualified professionals.
Thank you Dr. Mike for educating me on mental health. I am very sorry about your sister. She is with you forever.
You have covered various mental illnesses. I am blessed to have you as my online doctor. I wish to listen to you speak about Schizophrenia. Please share your valuable thoughts.
I think God is someone who helps others like YOU Dr. Mike. Thank you tons for your selfless and dedicated medical service to the world.
Best wishes

Thanks sir for highlight these mental health issues here . Mental health issues is a very serious matter in every part of the world nowadays and many NGO are trying their best to get people awareness.
I feel u.. sorry for your sister. My brother married to a lady that having a mental health problem. In my brother case he married that lady even though he is aware about her mental problem. My parents trying to advice him to think deeply about his choice, but we respect his commitment, he said that lady need someone to look after her ,she deserved a man to love her. Praise God after a few years in marriage her wife mental health are getting better but still under medication. I can see how love and care from my brother and all of my family members help my brother's wife getting better. Her psychiatric doctor advice them to not have a child during her treatment. I pray that God give us strength and good understanding in dealing with those people with mental health issues 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Traumatic unwanted life change..... retirement.
Full stress, bad anxiety,.. and horrible depression/anhedonia., ..... and insomnia.
Every moment in life is uncomfortable. My friends family neighbors are hurting from my condition.
I struggle now... just to go outside and walk. Panic attacks... I've never experienced until now...
Almost gave up... but,.... im trying.. pls 🙏4me...thank you
So sorry for your loss, Dr Mike.
What do you do when the therapy and medication doesn’t work? 29-year-old marine veteran who has been absolutely suffering with PTSD the last eight years.. The VA has been less than helpful.
Thanks Dr.
My child was diagnosed with depression when he was 16. This was a total disaster emotionally. I am now going through extreme anxiety that at times could be so overwhelming!!! I am constantly worrying about him being ok!!!
how is he
Wow so he talked about how the standard way isnt good enough and then didn't offer any insight on HOW TO ACTUALLY TREAT IT ON YOUR OWN as the title says and makes an ad for himself 😒
Dr. Hansen, please give us an update on psilocybin therapies.
She wasn't depressed, she was sad.
Great insight , very interesting Topic on depression and healthy living ..Dr Mike that’s why your here to assist people , in better way of life 🙏🥇..Thank you 👍
Dr.Mike you should be very proud of yourself-to have the courage and talk about This topic is definitely hard for you to talked about specifically when you loss some one you love❤. Very much-Mental health is an illness that has to be hear and be treated -Is like every part of your body needs attention-Mental help is par of the body too.hugs and ❤love Thank you for doing this!Stay well always
Good for her.
I am frustrated by the mental health services
I've been really depressed recently. I can't find anything to make me happy. I've had barely any motivation to do anything. And ive had a short wick recently. It doesn't take much to piss me off recently.
Congratulations on your "How To FIX DEPRESSION On Your Own" inspirational thanks for sharing. 💖
God knew your Sister’s ♥️ Dr. Mike. You can be sure that as long as she never did not wrong to anyone, God has take that into account. Do not loose your Faith that she may reach God’s mercy, and that some day you will see her again and embrace her in heaven. 🙏🏼
I do not believe the story about the female patient. In fact, anyone who has major depression would know it isn't true. The only way it could be true is if she was just depressed but not really suffering from cliniical depresssion. You don't want to do all those things. You want to die. You described someone who slowly but surely experienced joy from various activities. True sufferers of major clinical depression know what would make them feel better but they dont want to feel better by doing those things because there is a deeper problem. We dont find interest or joy in anything.
My eyes opened today about this whole subject of depression in my situation. I realized all the good times i experience involve the loss of memory. Drinking, benzos, cannabis,...every time in my life i have enjoyed involves my memory being destroyed or weakened. It doesn't take a genius to figure out i had been abused multiple times by different ppl before i was even 6 and that wasnt a new discovery...but the commonality of memory loss that threads through all my good times is sad. It is pathetic.
Maybe we can process those memories
Add this to the mix: “try finding a specialist”. Impossible to find, and/or impossible to afford.
What if you already do these things?
How lovely... she took antidepressants and sleep medication and a miracle pill... how lucky some people are... they go to psychiatrists, and they get well all of a sudden...
Thanks for your candor about complexity of treating depression and the broad approach strategy.
Title; fix depression on your own
Content; get help
Sorry for your loss my prayers are with you
I took two depression tests and both say I’m extremely depressed
Guys remember that its not a bad life. Its a bad day, week, month, or year. The life is NEVER bad. Whatever you're going will go away before you know it. Just dont focus on it.
Sorry to hear that Dr. Hansen! Depression is mental illness, for medication may not be cured it. Psychology therapy can guide the patient how to let it go... especially relationships issues!
I totally agree with you, seeking therapy is the only cure. Never shy away from asking for help.
I also had a sister commit suicide. It was horrible and life altering. Depression is a monster.
One of the catch 22 is that when you are depressed, you do not have the energy to cook.
I'm sorry for your loss. That must have been a terrible experience for you and your family.
Cold Exposure therapy works wonders for better mood and sleep. Either cold showers or just be outside in minimal clothing in the winter. Professors Andrew Huberman & David Sinclair and Wim Hof are good resources for info.
Checking my husband into psychiatrist in a week for a similar story with me although we are not divorced. I am the husband in this story he wants to stay together I don't. He's been suffering in silence for a long time until I found out a few months ago. He can't get better on his own uses alcohol to cope and has agreed to let me get him help
Glad to hear you are seeking help. I wish you well.
Thank you! :)
Hi Doctor you are back again . Happy to see you again 🤔❤️
I think I have come to the realization that I am depressed all I do is come home and sit in my room, I always look up videos of stuff I want to do and then when it comes time to do it i bale on myself and just SIT IN MY ROOM couped away, emotional, I want to change but I just don't have motivation and I don't like talking about it with people idk what to do "(
tysm for the vid you don't know how much this means to me.
I'm so sorry about your sister.
Exercise, diet and fasting 100% - it's a shame you didn't specifically mention Omega 3 (DHA/EPA), Vitamin D and K2
Well you did, so shame omitted
I'm so sorry to hear about your sister.
I'm my experience....most psychiatrist and therapists.....are more mentally disturbed then the patients seeking help. It's like all mentally challenged people have decided to go into the mental health field. The blind leading the blind.
Great point, Doc! Thank you for this. As a psychotherapist, I must help my clients and work alongside with professionals like you.
Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
Human beings are basically insane we are committing every crime you could possibly imagine around the world. It is because of the avoidance of our psychological and emotional problems. Psychiatrists cannot help anyone because they are in capable of helping themselves with just one little psychological or emotional problem. And treating depression with medication just shows the ignorance of us all. Depression is nothing more than repressed anger. Let the anger out in a therapeutic way then you'll be no longer suffering from depression. Suicidal feelings are nothing more than repressed anger at yourself, release the anger in a therapeutic way, directing it away from yourself and you'll be free of these feelings. Jealousy, possessiveness, insecurity are nothing more than fear. Fear is a little bit more difficult to deal with but not impossible. But the human race is basically terrified of facing these problems. Thus the madness in the world.
Sorry to hear about your sister Dr. M😔
It took me a month to get an appointment. Saw therapist who took history and typed constantly into computer. Told me her appointment person would call me with an appointment scheduled in about 5 weeks. I called the office after waiting a month for an appointment. The appointment person said, "Oh, I forgot". I''d have to wait another 4-5 weeks for an appointment. FU !!!! is what I said. getting help is a joke, just like out justice system. I guess if I had better health insurance, more money and wasn't a senior, I'd be worthy of getting some help.
I wish my depression was that easy to heal. I suspect there are not of cases of depression in her family.
Everybody can appreciate the great example as a role-model of success; however, Dr. Mike, is it possible to address the issue from an economically disadvantaged standpoint? Your friend had the financial resources to endure the process to recovery while those who don't fall away. Please highlight some of the success stories for these people?
Are you sure this isn't "based on a true story"? IN A FEW WEEKS? That might happen, or it might take a lot longer. Be patient with yourself, but keep on putting one foot in front of the other.
What if your 10 like me and don’t want to tell your dad and mum
At the end of the day you will still have to tell your parents because they know more than you do and have more experience, you should tell them how you feel and explain them properly, it might me hard but believe me you will feel better after telling them.
@@grand2938 ok ok I will after new year’s
@@TurtlebackYT You decide when but I recommend to take it as seriously as possible and not change dates each time. I recommend you tell your parents as soon as possible.
@@grand2938 ok ok

Ice cream IS a solution.

Existential depression is actually a depression. Break ups and divorce happen.
I believe i have completely lost my smart brain can,t take decision lack of concentration everything seems stuck in my head 😢
There is no need for depression if you have such symptoms I think it's better for you to use some tricks, I remember I was feeling same things like you do lack of concentration and Feeling lost, I was feeling like that usually only if I wasn't sleeping and eating well and also it was just because of my lazyness I was rotting my brain thought phone, so I think it's better for you to start using less phone and electronics and sleep drink and eat well. don't worry, everything will be alright.
Good doctors are scarce these days. I am trying with everything I can. I have to learn to be “indifferent “ to half of society’s value system….I have to learn how to not care. It’s a hard lesson….not sure where to begin
@James David Awesome….thanks. I was growing during covid. It was fun to watch them grow. The place I live is perfect weather 💙
Psilocybin it’s the oldest fix
I’ve taken all of the pills. Suffered for more than 30 years. I am looking forward to trying the mushrooms. It is supposed to be a breakthrough.
@@rustynails68 I’m a little keen to try hearing so much about it.
So by any chance will this work on a 11 year old..?
I am in hell but nobody to talk to.
Me too 😞😞😞
I know what that is. If you could tell people, they can’t help.
I would love to be your pen pal. I live in usa
Doctor what is the cause of your sister's depression ?
Sounds good, but to me sounds like platitudes.
