Sometimes, the signs of depression are not so obvious. For example, unstable mood, not being able to fall asleep, or losing appetite. Want to know how to know the signs of depression? We recommend seeing a professional if you see yourself relating to many of these signs.
As a mental wellness channel, we hope that the channel has somewhat inspired you to seek your own therapy, and gained a better understanding into your conditions.
We also have a playlist on various depression topics here as well: • Depression

Hey. I hope things are going well. If not and you want to talk to someone, let me know. My contact information is in my about section. Or just let me know it's all good.
I'm dealing with depression on a daily basis, and I'm going through a lot psychologically and physically. I always talk to myself, but people think I'm crazy. I just want people would understand me better without the prejudice and bullying.
I hope things get better for you soon. I used to talk to myself a lot too.
Talking to yourself is not at all crazy, I don't know why people say that. How else are you supposed to figure things out? All you're doing is voicing what you're already thinking. It may be uncommon, but definitely not crazy.
I find myself talking to myself throughout the day
"The only person that understand you is yourself" that's what i heard and it's basically true bc some people wouldn't even care to understand who you are bc they aren't trying and such so i hope you know that you're a strong person to deal with prejudice bullying and depression so keep moving forward even if no one is beside you to support you just keep moving bc later on you will find someone that would understand and protect you and i know every one of us have someone that understand us and support us so don't lose hope in yourself bc there still people in your life that care's for you(including me).
If anyone saw my comment and i said anything wrong then feel free to say anything but without any harsh words thx
you're not alone; you considered suicide, because we'll both be in the same level.

@@iexist7573 Maybe you could be depressed if that's the case, but either way I recommend seeing a psychologist or a therapist and consulting things with them rather than trying to self diagnose because I personally believe that when we self diagnose there's not a full guarantee that it's correct or not or what we are exactly trying to understand is actually clear instead it could also make us feel even more gloomy or you know bad about things or lead to bring confused maybe. Either way, do what you think is the best for yourself and I really hope that you feel better soon, please stay strong. (:
@@iexist7573 No problem! (:
in case you don't have time to watch:
1. you emotions change depending on your surroundings (e.g. happy around friends, sad when you're alone)
2. you notice changes in your habits (sleeping, eating, showering, being on time)
3. you blame yourself for things, regardless of whether it's your fault or not
4. you've stopped doing things you used to, or stopped enjoying it (you might carry on doing them and act happy so as not to ruin the mood around friends)
5. you've become indecisive, with major and minor issues (points towards being unsure of one's capability)
6. you're on edge/ irritable all the time and may overreact in situations that can be talked about easily
7. unexplained physical pain (aches and pains)
if you relate to one or more of these symptoms, it might help to talk to a mental health professional
have a good day!

As a man who used to struggle with depression these are the most helpful things I can think of:
-Take Risks, don't let the fear of failure stop you from trying something new or something great
-Do things that genuinely scare you or that you're afraid of (Even little things like climbing onto a roof and helping to put up Christmas lights if you're afraid of heights or saying something to the cute cashier girl other than "hi" and "thanks")
-Pursue an ambitious goal, one that a lot of people don't believe you can achieve (It doesn't even matter if you fail this because no matter what the pursuit of an ambitious goal will make you a better person and give you fulfillment) With that being said, do your best to succeed
-Have a passion, basically this means to find a hobby that you enjoy so much that you will spend hours and hours getting better at it
-Study history, pick a role model, and then analyze the traits of your role model and list the reasons why you admire them. Then start to emulate these traits in your everyday life and eventually you will become your own role model.
-Don't ever quit something just because it's hard (You can quit a crappy job if it's not the right fit for you, but never quit solely based on the fact that something is difficult). Embrace challenges and look for opportunities to improve yourself mentally, physically, and spiritually.
-Never put yourself down. Try not to think negative things about yourself and especially never say them out loud. You will think more highly of yourself when you say positive things about yourself, at the very least avoid putting yourself down on purpose.
-Live purposefully. Have a direction for your life and if you don't already have one, make one. Decide what's most important to you and live accordingly. If you have a family or even a single loved one, your first priority (other than serving God if you're religious) should be to provide for them, to protect them, and to help them become the best version of themselves
-Develop Integrity. I can't even explain how much this increases your self-repsect. Be honest, be trustworthy, don't cheat (unless you're in a street fight) and live with honor.
-Find a hobby that you're really passionate about and strive to become a master at it
-Finally, probably the most important thing I can say is to think less about yourself. Think less about yourself but not less of yourself. In other words, think about other people before you think about yourself, especially your family and loved ones. If you're focused on helping them with their problems I can promise you that your problems will become less important and less troublesome. Look for opportunities to help others and make them feel better about themselves. Nothing lifts you out of depression better than helping someone out of theirs.
I hope this helps. I realize that some people are genetically predisposed to having a harder time with depression, but I believe that there's nothing you can't overcome with a strong mindset. In addition, I strongly believe that going through depression and having such terrible lows actually gives you the capacity to feel even greater happiness and joy. The reason I say this is because when you feel genuine joy after being depressed for so long you can't help but feel grateful.
The beauty of life is that we are meant to experience the full range of human emotions, from happiness to anger to jealousy to despair to joy. We couldn't feel genuine happiness if we never knew what it was like to be sad. If I could talk to whoever is reading this face-to-face, what I would say to you would be simple: don't quit. A quote from Winston Churchill kept me going in times when I thought I had nothing left, he said: "If you're going through Hell, keep going."
Everything in life can be and is meant to be an opportunity to make yourself better, and depression is no exception. Keep fighting, all of you are descended from warriors no matter what culture or country you are from. You wouldn't be here today if it weren't for the conquering spirit of your ancestors. Live a life that would make them proud. While most of us will not fight in physical wars, no one is exempt from the battlefield of life. Depression can be a battle every single day, every single second in some cases. Keep fighting, it will only get better. And the more you fight, the more you will gain respect for yourself. I've conquered my depression. Every now and then it will start to try and creep back into my mind but I don't let it. I destroy those feelings with action. I go lift weights, I go running, I listen to metal music, whatever it takes for me to regain my confidence.
You can conquer depression, no matter how severe it is. That doesn't mean you'll never have days where you feel down, but it does mean that you'll have the strength to push through and do what you need to do as a man regardless of how you're feeling. Stay strong, stay hard, and fight like dragons 🐉 You're going to be very glad you did.
Thank you so much.

It is me all the time.
The first sign hit me so hard like when am alone am crying but as soon as am around ppl even if I want to show them that am sad I can't because my emotions suddenly switch so much as if the sadness wasnt even there
I’m the same way. Even if someone calls me mid cry the tears have stopped by the time I’ve answered. It’s like I can’t control it
@@truself108 I'm the same way!
You're not alone ❤
Remember you are strong and you will get through this
Thanks for the positive words!
I have been in depression since 8th standard, I remember it was in 10th grade when I found out through an online counseling session that I have depression, I am in 11th grade as of now and I do not have a single medication because my family does not prioritise mental health, they only worry for the scars visible to the eye. Let me tell you that I go through literal hell, I can't describe what I go through everyday, It is so freaking bad that there's not a single day when I don't self harm, i feel like that's the only way of calming down, I know it's not right but I can't seem to stop. I hope anyone who's going through my situation stays strong. We will get through this too ✨.
I hope you get better...You are not the only one...just please don't lose hope in life...keep faith..its going to be okay...trust me..take care
Hi, I can relate to whatever you have said about acting out and feeling depressed. I wish you all the strength in the world along with all the love. What seems to calm me down is taking an ample dose of sugar. Idk if you like sweet things but they’ve given me a reason to live. At this point, I am just there for ice-cream and caramel custard.
I believe in something. I believe that there is always balance in everything and if its not it will be balanced out at some point. That goes for the good and the bad. Its the princip of ying and yang. And I believe that you will have your good times also it right now may not look like it. That your family is not supporting you is disgrace and should never happen. Stay strong till you can make your own decisions about your life and surround you with people that care for you. I believe in you that u can do that and that you can stay strong. Believe in ying and yang ;)
I don't feel good even around my friends though i laugh but my heart feels heavy and in reality I don't even want to smile i just smile bicz thats my nature..
But inside me i am dead i feel like im dead my heart feels so heavy.....
Hey, you're not alone. It might be hard to believe this, but how you're feeling will change. You are an amazing person, and don't let your feelings or circumstances define who you are. Remember that life is a rollercoaster, and if you're on a low part, you will climb back in again. You're important to so many people, and so many people love you for who you are. I encourage you to talk to someone about how you're feeling. I know a lot of people instantly think "No that's weird, I'm not just going to dump my problems onto someone else." But that's not what's happening. You can just be like, "Hey, I've been feeling kind of down lately" And you can tell them if you just need to vent, or if you want advice. Here are some more tips:
1. When you're alone and you feel like crying, don't stop yourself. Let those tears roll but don't beat yourself up. Don't insult yourself or say anything negative, just try to empty your mind.
2. Tell yourself you are loved and you are beautiful, because you are!
3. Spend less time on Social media, and more time on books, nature, and movies.
4. You don't have to force yourself to smile, you if you feel comfortable you can ask your friends for a hug and that will make you feel a little better.
5. Try a new hobby! This can be theatre, a sport, dance, cooking, running, or anything!
6. When you are just feeling SUPER bad in your worst moments, remember how many people love you. Take a notebook and write down everything you love about yourself on one page, and everything you hate about yourself on the next page. Take the hate page and rip it up and throw it in the trash saying, "These lies don't define me." And tape the "Things I love about me" on the mirror and read them every day! Might sound a bit ridiculous, but it will lift your mood.
I care about you, and I hope you find peace. Remember, chances are you know tons of other people with depression and just treat them exactly how you would want them to treat and talk to you. Praying for you!! God loves you.
🙏
The only happiness I have is when I go to sleep...waking up is my worst nightmare. Most of the time I go to sleep hoping I don't wake up.😢
Pls talk to a helpline
Pls don't say that! Try to look at the positives and remember all the good things, wether that's small things or big things. Life can be awesome if you let it
Same man it just feels as if life isn't worth living and im stuck with chains stuck in an endless void
Please talk about memory loss , confused in everything, difficulty with talking in own language, difficulty with also small numbers ,Challenges in solving problems or planning something 🙏🏼😭
(Sorry for my bad English)
Yesss that is a big one 👏🏼
sounds good!
1:05 sometimes I have to force myself to go out with friends, or watch a movie, or spend 8+ hours a day on my phone, just so I can distract myself and not think about "bad things".
The more I open myself to the truth the more I realize how many of these videos speak to me. Everyday I tell myself I’m fine and/or “hey I think I’m getting better” then out of nowhere it’s sudden waves and anger, sadness, or just nothing at all, and I try my hardest to just hide it but it comes out in the way I speak and do things all the time. I’m barely eating anything and I know its not a good thing but I can’t find myself making anything. I’m having more persistent thoughts about things I know I should not be having, and to top it all off my third therapy session involved discussion about anti-depressants.
Hi there, I'm Tiana! I am a 16-year-old girl who loves health and medical studies, I just want to inform you that telling yourself or making yourself not eat is a way of hurting your body not only on the outside but most definitely on the inside. Starving yourself leads to health problems and bad things that may cause you things you have never experienced before. If you feel as if something is wrong with your body. I disagree, everybody is different and is made who they are meant to be at the start. If you really do feel the need to change yourself starving yourself is not the way to do it!! Make sure you are getting all the nutrients you need and the electrolytes you need because all of the things you get from food makes you function. Food is fuel!! Now lets talk about how you try to motivate yourself. That is a great choice and is also one step further toward showing your mind you are perfect and that you dont need to worry. Having a nice and healthy mindset also leads to a healthy body. If you keep motivating yourself that will get you onto the path to success. Its all about talking about to yourself. Hope this helps!!!
Many anti-depression medications actually cause more depression in some people. You can only hide things for so long and then, they come out. If nothing else on the eating, grab a piece of fruit and a peanut butter sandwich. I made myself cheese crisps tonight (just a small amount of butter spread on the tortilla, top it with shredded cheese and stick it under the broil setting on your oven and watch it like a hawk. When the cheese bubbles, it's done). I couldn't think of what I wanted for dinner. Thoughts about things you shouldn't think about? Suicide or Homicide? Hopefully neither, but we here won't judge you. I certainly won't as I think about suicide all the time. Talk to us here, the ones who are non-judgemental.
you got this!

I didn’t even know I had depression until last week . It takes over your life mentally and physically . Worst is when it comes with severe anxiety . People who don’t have anxiety depression or any other mental health issue don’t know how difficult it is . The mind is so powerful that it takes full control and a strong hold over you and you’re just swimming and struggling trying to not drown , leave far reach the shore .
Beautifully described.

Depression is actually a natural reaction to the disgusting world we're forced to live in
sad but true... but we can work through it!
''Forced Happiness, where the person feels inclined to put a smile for others''
This made me start crying IDK why...........
I dont know how to tell my parents because I’ve been watching your videos and I’ve realised I might have social anxiety and depression but I feel like I will be a burden to my family and friends
I'm going through a lot right now for no reason and I feel like I'm going insane. Watching these make me realize how relatable these videos are with me.
Sorry to hear....
When was a time you felt happier? Did you want to share that?
@@WholesomeAnimationbypsych2go well I'm dating someone and usually when I'm with him it helps because I feel like no one else ever wants to hang out with me and it makes me feel almost hopeless. Not in where I want to end my life but where I feel like I will never have a good friend or a good life.
I’m so sorry that’s what you are going through. But I wanted you to know that you are amazing inside and out. The same God who created the stars created you. You are strong and capable and can get through anything the world has to throw at you. Jesus is there for you. You are strong you are amazing you are capable. I believe in you and I am proud of you!!

POV: you know you have depression you’re just too scared to get it diagnosed and every video article etc.. is proving further that you need help but you’re still too scared
Sincere question, no pressure to answer but I want to toss it out there since it helps me ... What's the fear itself? In a concrete way, not just vague? What specifically is the fear of? Listen closely to the fear and give it extra attention for a day, or a few days, and ask it what it's telling you. You'll often find that fears are just our emotional minds reminding us to remember facts or experiences that we already know we've learned from, and/or just anxiety for its own sake, and in either case, I find it helps to treat it like my wuffly younger dog ... I thank the fear for alerting me to its worries, tell it it did a good job, and reassure it that I've got things under control. That works much better than trying to tell a fear (or a dog) not to do what it thinks its job is.
I don't experience chronic depression, but getting diagnoses for my specific issues has really helped me and made me feel empowered. And it doesn't mean you have to take meds, or otherwise change anything at all. It's just getting approval to use a term that helps you capture the essence of what you go through. To me, at least, knowing feels MUCH better than not knowing.
Best of luck, keep hanging in there 💚
@@ItsAsparageese maybe not actual fear even though I know my family will get worried or think I’m going crazy when I’ve been feeling like this for so long. Like at this point it would just be putting a name on something that’s been going on for years lol and I don’t want everyone to know about it. Also yeah meds scare me but I don’t have to take them as you said. So really I feel like it doesn’t matter whether there’s an « official » diagnosis or not. No one takes depression seriously anyway. Also I feel like it’s getting better sometimes and then finally no. Anyway that probably doesn’t make any sense. Sometimes I’m sure I have depression, because I’m thinking about how the way I feel must not be « normal » like it can’t just be that I’m lazy and everybody else feels like that they just « suck it up ». But sometimes I feel like I’m the one making myself like this and there’s actually nothing wrong.
Damn, I see a lot of comments down here sharing their struggles. But whoever's reading this I want you to know that it will get better, I promise you that, and if it gets too bad please talk to someone, even if they're just an online friend. And try new things that may make you feel better :)

Wow, that's me kinda. And signs you're drained by talking because you have isolated too long
Or because you had childhood trauma
Psilocybin containing mushrooms saved my life. The drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit. It has also helped me survive depression.
I have researched and found out that shrooms are very helpful , it has really helps to reduce anxiety and depression . I would love to try magic mushrooms but I can't easily get some , Is there any realiable source I can purchase one

I’m watching this video with my face covered in tears because I just had a breakdown. I don’t know what to do. I feel hopeless, with no reasons to actually continue. I fear that telling this to my parents would lead to them scolding me or not taking me seriously. My mom is really fixated on school grades and I can’t concentrate even for 1 second because I start talking in my head and I just can’t stop doing it. That’s because I don’t have any friends and I feel lonely all the time because my dad works and my mom doesn’t share any of my interests. Now I want to convince them to adopt a dog so that I won’t feel lonely anymore, but they will probably say that we can’t at the moment, which is not true ( Trust me, we don’t have money problems. We are not rich, but we are not poor either).
I feel so bad for you. If you can’t talk to your parents, I think you should ask your teachers for help maybe. You should really ask for help❤️ I hope it will get better for you. You are not alone and I hope you know that even though it feels like no one cares for you, it doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with you. You are worthy and I only hope for the best in your future. I care for you.
If it makes you feel better, I could maybe share my own experiences with mental health lately. I think I might have some form of depression. I don’t eat, sleep or feel like I used to, and I contemplate suicide really often. You are not alone. You are so not alone❤
I Feel this my face is covered in tears too. I’ve been so sad and lonely and no one even seems to notice I’m fading away. Everyday Is so hard. I just don’t want to do anything my parents just had a big fight. And yelled at me for it. And I’m always alone even when I’m with people. I always feel alone. My heart hurts and just sitting on the couch doing nothing just staring at the wall then I got on UA-cam and it doesn’t help I get on UA-cam to get away from my life that crumbing right before my eyes. Sorry for saying all of this I guess I just needed to vent to someone…❤
I also feel same
I am going through same condition I have my exam on 5 the may I am not able to study anything just crying and blaming myself everyday even if I am sitting to study I am talking to myself I'm my head not interested I'm anything even not eating 🥺🥺🥺
“People who have never dealt with depression think it’s just being sad or being in a bad mood. That’s not what depression is for me; it’s falling into a state of grayness and numbness.” - Dan Reynolds
My mother and father are arguing a lot and it’s breaking my soul
Yeah it's really tiring, I get you.
I don't know if anyone noticed but I really appreciate that you showed a dark empath when you said "a friend flirting with your crush". It is like finding easter eggs in your videos (I have never found easter eggs before). So positive to see "characters" even when the video is not about them they still do exist. Thank you for the informative video as always!💖😘
Living in my household with little to no social life I am starting to become depressed. Thanks for informing me
hoping you get better with time ! 🙌 i believe in you
@@moogle7445 Thank you so much! I just really went through a lot from day before yesterday and the past few weeks. Thanks for that! I had to tell my mom that living in daily life in my household has started to become depressing, not that my house is a bad place but because of some of my daily circumstances I see people and all my friends and classmates have fun on social media and I’m stuck at my house with few options left anyways. I hope I have more people talking to me soon this summer. I am good at masking my emotions of depression but I do go through it. I am not suicidal but I want to live life like the other teenagers do. I feel like my life lacks a whole ton.
For me, I accept because I fell guilty if I decline or leave early even if they don't care, they want to have fun and it feels like I'm blocking it
I can relate to all 7 tell tale signs. It's very comforting to know them and realising I'm not imaging them. Thank you for the insight.
Toggle between emotions. Huh. I have noticed that I can be sad to the point of crying, but then be in front of people and be perfectly fine. Like, I still know what made me sad, and I'm still thinking about it, but there is a wall. A wall that makes me think "This is how it is. So? Move on." Then I'll be by myself again, and suddenly feel the emotions that came with the situation again. But, I'm not depressed. I have nothing to be depressed about. Maybe sad, but not depressed.
Also physical pain. I have had small headaches in the back of my brain, right where the base of my skull is lately. It could be a lot of things. I could be imagining it.
I’m so sorry that’s what you are going through. But I wanted you to know that you are amazing inside and out. The same God who created the stars created you. You are strong and capable and can get through anything the world has to throw at you. Jesus is there for you. You are strong you are amazing you are capable. I believe in you and I am proud of you!!
I once told my family that I think I might have depression, so they can help me consult to a doctor but they just shrug me off and say I was just 'imagining' it. And when my depression worsen, it came to a point where I wanted to leave.... that's when my family finally believes me, when they found my body flooding with so much blood. It's even a miracle that I'm alive. Now I'm thriving to become a physiologist and help young adults like me, face their challenges. And also a quick reminder to all parents out there.... Constantly ask your child if they are facing something hard. Because being a child isn't an excuse to not have mental issues. School pressure can cause a lot of mental illness, commonly stress. So please don't go too hard on your children. Because I experience it first hand, and it's hell.... And I don't want anybody to feel the way I did that time.... That's all... Let's stay safe everyone!! 💜✨
basically no one believes ur depressed ever, ever ever, EVER, fucking ever unless they are made to realize that yes, they where fucking wrong, this can be achieved when you suicide
These videos aren't for diagnosing that i have depression. I already have that major diagnosis. These videos help remind me that I'm not broken or worthless, just going through a rough patch and that it's okay. I feel very lucky that I have high points to relate back to so i know that it really does get better, i just need to give myself some time. ❤
Glad you use it strategically, look at it with equanimous patience, and practice self-acceptance.
I'd regard all these as aspects of healthy positivity, which is a skill that might not come naturally to us all, but which can be practiced.
i just sometimes hate myself for no reason
I've been suffering with depressive thoughts for 2 years now and i always thought that its just the way life works, that I'm overthinking, that its ok to feel sad sometimes. But when I realized that i feel sad every single day, that i have zero motivation to live, that i started to have headaches and physical pain in my muscles and bones especially when i cry or when i have panic attacks, i understood that maybe there is something wrong with me. I don't know who i am, i don't know why i am here when there were so many amazing people like artists, writers, scientists who passed away and who deserved to live more than me. I don't deserve anything at all, but thank you so much for making videos like this, at least now im sure that i need therapy.
Go for it! Therapy is great! Good job!
Hey I understand your pain I’ve been feeling like shit for almost 5 years and I always think bad about myself but I believe in you. People love you and if you give up on yourself, it’ll break their hearts. Just do something you enjoy doing. Enjoy your life. You have a purpose in this world but you probably don’t know it yet. You’re not the only one going through this shit. Life is hard but it’s not impossible. You, me and everyone else who’s going through shit will find a way, we just gotta keep moving. Trust me, something good will happen to you if you believe in yourself. I don’t know if this helped but I hope it did. Peace and love to you mokibee
All of those symptoms sound so terrible. I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry that’s what you are going through. But I wanted you to know that you are amazing inside and out. The same God who created the stars created you. You are strong and capable and can get through anything the world has to throw at you. Jesus is there for you. You are strong you are amazing you are capable. I believe in you and I am proud of you
The first few years will get tough, very tough, u may get suicidal ideation, soon if u find help quickk, you'll be much better, cuz on my recount I've suffered it for 7 years, before getting another 2 mental health issue. Dun worry try try have hope
Thank you for making this, life has been rough for me during all the pandemic. Love your videos your voice calms me a lot, thank you.
No worries! Hopefully the video can truly help. We made a new channel too btw if you want to check it out.

I have agreed with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and I mostly struggle with this. It's sad having depression but I usually think I will soon get over this.
Depression never goes away it’s apart of you
Does it have a connection to narcissism and perfectionism?
Ms. Silvera, I truly appreciate how very kind and soothing your voice is, you always sound encouraging, and most importantly, you come across as very gentle. and absolutely non-judgemental. I've watched quite a few videos on this channel, the writing (and research) is outstanding, and they struck gold in finding you and your voice. Thank you all 🥰
It's so sad to think that the people around you take your condition as a joke. That's why it's always hard to open up coz you already know that they would just take it lightly. They think that you make it as a reason to be lazy but they don't know how hard it is that you'll going to wake up everyday with a fear that you might feel that same hell again :)
Ive been battling pretty severe depression for years and could usually work through it. Finally hit my breaking point and realized Im just not living. So i finally went to a doctor and now Im on antidepressants. I hope these work for me because god Im tired of being unhappy and not myself. If you think you're depressed, please please please get help. You won't be judged. There's an increase of people with depression and anxiety in our society now. If you need help, please get it.
The toggling symptom caught me by surprise. It makes me rethink a certain situation. Thanks for posting this!
Depression is like thoughts are all over the place and it's so hard to explain
I just texted my friend saying Iv never felt so suicidal in my life.
marked off every single one of these.
I hope I’m still here soon
Praying for your healing.
It gets so much better love❤️🧚🏽♀️
i know it might be hard, but please, seek help from professionals or go to someone about these feelings. there are people that can help if you reach out. there are people that care about you. never give up
Try find the cause
Seek expert help, any one
Dig in and don't give up
Your worth it..
Bless you..

I appreciate all of these beautiful comments, yet it’s like reading print with no meaning. These no hope or light to look forward to. I just want this pain to end
Depression is the worst I cry myself to sleep every night and I'm always waking up with bad headaches 😭
Try to look at the positives! The small things, the big things and the things in between because life can be really great if you let it
I've been depressed since 2019 when Covid-19 started. I had no idea I was even depressed. With all the news going around, I feel like it's my fault. I want to end my life everyday, but I can't. I'm happy at school, but I'm sad at school.
Things i found out on this channel: i hate myself, im unattractive, im depressed, my crush hates me and that im not fine :)
It's suck when every single signs on every Psych2Go videos about depression or mental health is actually what I'm struggling on daily basis....

You are not alone, as you can see from the posts. Annika Taylor cares and so do I.
When your feeling hopeless,..you can't give in to it...you have to be strong and fight it...all the time..it's too easy to give in..keep thinking one day you will feel good again.
That’s exactly right 👏🏼❤️💫
oh, i get it now, whenever i watch your videos i never relate to all the signs about depression or some other type of mental health condition, and that makes me feel like im faking everything and trying to get attention.
this one checks all the boxes. thank you so much.
This video made me realize that I may be depressed all along but I wasn't paying attention to it. These past few months have been soo hard to handle for me.
Kinda sucks that Mental Health month is vastly overshadowed by pride even though its drastically more important to be reminded and aware of.
I relate to 4 of the signs. I’m sad when I’m alone, but around my parents I put on my happy ask to pretend I’m fine, but sometimes it breaks and my sadness bursts out and revels itself. I don’t eat, shower, brush my teeth, exercise, get outside, I’m always lazy, I’m a snob. I blame myself for things that aren’t even my fault. I also have low self esteem so I over apologize. And I get irritated easily. When my brother annoys me, I’m quick to get angry. I don’t know what’s wrong with me
Girl me to but worse..
ye me too, but its getting to the point where i need to slap myself in the face or want me to yeet myself out of a window head first, the worse part is that i can't go see someone cause im a minor and im afraid they dont believe me because my sister had severe depression and they only believed when they saw her break down
I do eat but not as much
These videos have helped me so much. It’s a fight getting out of depressive cycle but, these videos give a little more hope because someone understands.
you got this!
I was lucky enough that I function normally despite my dissability. But the bullying in my younger years still remembered . I wish all the sufferers to get well and for all of us as a community to stick together because it’s an invisible illness . But so many are suffering including myself. I wish all of my fellow suffers to recover and to find the way to cope with it . Love you all💜
Is anyone else fighting with themselves? Like what happens when everything in your life is going right but you feel so wrong? You're a high achiever at school, you're talented, you're surrounded by people who care about you, people who support you, you have opportunities and plans. Yet you're just so tired because you've been fighting yourself and your own negative thoughts for far too long. And you know that no one could possibly understand because not even you understand. You've tried everything and you're constantly toggling between genuine happiness and the deepest, darkest sadness. And you want to cry for help because you know there are people who can help but you have so many trust issues and anxieties that you can't cry anymore. You wish they'd just notice something is wrong, but because everything in your life (except your mental health) is going right, no one notices a thing. But when someone notices you push them away but you really long for them to come back because you want to spill out all the tired that you feel. The hardest battle I've come to realize, is the battle with yourself. 😞
Its like hearing myself talking
Im listening my feelings and words in your words
We are exactly on the same boat. I don't know what to do and where to begin 😭
Get out of my head🥲
My depression seems to manifest in having very limited resources. I work and pay bills, study, try to eat healthy and get in exercise. The payoff is I don’t keep a tidy house, I don’t socialise much, I sleep lots. If I try to do any more I go under and need time to take it easy and recover. It’s not quite living but it’s as good as it gets right now
I seriously have been having the roughest time lately. This channel popped out of nowhere when things started getting bad and its scaring me how many things I can related to on a daily. Its been getting progressively worse and I cant name how many times throughout the day I'll keep telling myself that "im fine", "I just laughed yesterday and meant it so I'm good" and then out of nowhere its the most painful overwhelming things over and over again. To make things worse It last for god knows how long and I end up panicking, or it last a short awful period. Either way it always takes whatever I was feeling with it and I'm left there feeling nothing. Just empty laying in my bed.
I've been feeling most of these signs lately. Well, thanks to this channel. Hope to get over these negative pattern of thoughts soon. Wish everyone well. Peace and love! ♥️
you got this!
Uh oh.... I've saved all of your videos about depression and I have almost every sign. The only thing I find different is that I find more reasons to hang out with my friends because they make me feel emotion. Otherwise, I feel emotionless. I don't know what's worse: Feeling no emotion or only feeling bad emotion.
Feeling no emotion and sort of just covering it up with fake emotion is definitely worse. I know from experience.
Anyone else relate to the feeling of thinking you may have depression but you can't talk about it or tell anyone for fear people will think it's just another person in today's world self-diagnosing and/or attention-seeking?
Yeah...
You are not alone in thinking that, i feel ppl around me know im depressed by now cause its been soso long,but they dont understand what it means, and if you talk about it, it always makes it worse
In my case... i think so often, would it be bette
r for others and me if i wasnt here ? The only reason im holding on is how much i care about some people close to me,but who knows.
@@minttuhietavala8145 Please don’t leave this planet. Whether you feel your existence is a burden to others or not, YOU hold importance and YOU hold a future. You have value. Please don’t leave. Sending my love ❤️
I also feel that. Sometimes I even feel like I think up bad thoughts on purpose just to get my sympathy.
@@breakfast.431 Same. I don’t want to be the person who has thoughts out of sympathy and I don’t think I AM that person, but sometimes I psych myself out about it.
Well this was helpful. My family has been pushing for me to get back on the mental health wagon for a hot minute and the fact that I align with quite a few of these means that it's time.
Wow, I have all of these symptoms. It’s helpful to know what they are and stop blaming myself for them. My therapist and psychiatrist have diagnosed me with bipolar and cptsd, but when they say depression and mood swings I don’t understand all the symptoms that could entail. This helps a lot. Thanks!!
Thanks to you Psy2go!! Without your videos, I wouldn't questioned that I had depression. You saved my life! Thank you to everyone in the Psy2go team. I got the help I needed bc of you. I'm an INTJ, and I currently want to hug or shake the hand of everyone in this amazing team. Thank you so much.❤❤❤

@@annikataylor9052 I'm not believing in that kind of bullshit tho. But thx for the support. I'm going better now.
@@julo_ghost I understand where your coming from, even though there is a creation sometimes there feels like there is no creator. But we all know the darkness, Satan, evil, so there must me the light that comes from the other side. The Lord has changed my life, and I hope and pray you talk to Him before choosing
@@annikataylor9052 Hello!! Wake up!! Why do you believe in such non sense?
I pretty consistently force happiness around my friends too. You don’t want to bring the mood down or worry anybody so you just don’t let it come up. I mean the amount of friends I’ve had who have said anything to the degree of “It must be so nice being mentally healthy and happy.” just really sucks lol having everybody tell you you’re so lucky you’re happy when you aren’t :/
I understand unfortunately, it's really horrible, same situation. Sending you lots love and support
Man, I just realized I fit a lot of these signs. I dont feel bad about my life, but I just try my best to smile and be happy because I want to put my best self out there.
I noticed some actually, all apart physical pain and blaming yourself for no reason (But i often heavily blame myself for a lot of things i do and i feel really bad. My sorroundings might have caused this ). For example, when i am with others i act full of joy, but when i'm alone i complain with myself how useless, worthless and hated am i.
My mom passed away 5 months ago from a drunk driver when she was coming home from visiting my dieing brother. 6 days later my brother passed. They were the closest people to me in my life, besides my son and fiance. I haven't been myself..I don't care about daily habits I used to RELIGIOUSLY do. I've always been a huge skincare junkie. Now I wash my face maybe once a week if I feel up to it. I don't really eat, I have horrible sleep. I have ups and downs when I'm happy and then I get punched in the face with sadness. The most horrific sadness I have ever felt in my life. It's happens anywhere. Grocery shopping, playing soccer with my son, or even being intimate with my fiance. It just happens..I don't act on my emotions during these times, I hold them in. I don't want others to see me hurting. I have thoughts of terrible things, not everyday though and I would never act on them as I have people who need me and I know my mom and brother would be furious with me. I've stopped talking to people, but in the same breathe I talk to everyone. It's weird how I can be present but not actually there. I try and make a smile on people's face everyday because I wish I could smile like that. Complimenting a random person's shirt, or telling the cashier to have a wonderful day. I know what it's like to be stuck in this and we all don't know what people are going through in their life. We fake a smile and laugh..but in reality we are dieing inside. Screaming and trying to keep it all in. So if I can make someone's shitty day better by faking a smile and telling them to have a wonderful day, I will. Regardless of my own feelings. It doesn't make me feel better, but it makes others feel happiness.
😔❤️ I’m so sorry that happened. There is no explanation for something so unimaginable. I hope you are able to feel some sort of supernatural peace through this time whatever that means for you and however you would find that.
Maybe one day in a few years you’ll realize that you feel a little bit better. That’s what happened for me after my losses 😔 I can’t tell you the day I felt better, but I can tell you that one day I realized I was feeling a little happier. The sadness was still there but it wasn’t taking over me anymore.
I’m so sorry, sending you nothing but love and positive energy. I hope you’re doing as okay as you could be today ❣️
Does anyone feel like no matter what you do, no matter how much help you get, no matter how much people say that they love you/care for you, you just feel like you'll never get better. You'll never get out from the box you built around yourself. The water is filling up and you're drowning.. so you just...stop fighting and let it take you..
You dont want to fight anymore. You're exhausted... You feel guilty for not caring and for being exhausted. So you just close up. And you dont want to care anymore...the guilt of being depressed is eating you alive. You think about the kids who could've had a life and who would've enjoyed your life. You feel selfish...and you blame yourself for those kids not being able to live the life they dreamed about...
Idk about any of you but this resonates with me so much. I'm so exhausted. I'm scared to tell my mom that...she knows I'm depressed but I feel like she doesnt listen to me. Or that she doesnt what me to..she forces me to go to school...and when I dont, she makes me feel like shit about it...she makes me feel guilty for wasting the money being put into me going to school. I feel guilty... when I tell her that my mental health isnt good, she thinks I'm just trying to get out of school. I jsut FREAKIMG WISH EVERYONE WOULD UNDERSTAND!!!! UNDERSTAND THAT IM NOT OKAY. THAT I CONSTANTLY THINK ABOUT ENDING MY LIFE. NO AMOUNT OF COUNSELLING WILL SAVE ME. NO AMOUNT OF WATER OR SLEEP WILL SAVE ME. NO AMOUNT OF EXERCISE OR MENTAL HEALTH APPS WILL SAVE ME. IM TOO FAR GONE. IM HANGING ON THE EDGE OF THE CLIFF..READY TO LET GO ANY SECOND. BUT IM STAYING, BECAUSE I WANT TO BELIEVE ILL HAVE A FUTURE. I KEEP LOOKING AND I DONT SEE ANYTHING.. WHATS WRONG WITH ME?? WHY AM I SUCH A BAD DAUGHTER?? WHY AM I SUCH A HORRIBLE SISTER?? WHY AM I SUCH A MOOD KILLER FRIEND?? IM JUST SO FCKING TIRED.
Hi there. I know that I don't know the extent of what you're going through, but I want you to know that the fact that you're still here, shows so much of your strength. ❤️ As someone who's also feeling exhausted of just about everything and feels guilty when I can't seem to enjoy the life around me, I can relate to a lot of what you said. It's hard when we just want people to understand and it feels so agonizing when we can't be understood. Please don't let go. There is a future out there for you. I know it's hard right now and it seems like there is no way out and you don't know when things will get better, but please, hang on. I may not be the best person to listen to but I am here, and I know that it's cliche to say but, you're not alone. I am the eldest child in my family and one of the reasons why I still choose to hang on is because of them, especially my little sisters. Even though I feel as if I am not a good enough daughter or sister, I know how much it would hurt them if I let go. I fight for them, because a lot of the times I find it useless to fight for myself. It's never too late to be saved, and it's never too late to save. sending you hugs ❤️
@@mgracie247 aw yourself so sweet..thank you so much❤
I'm the youngest daughter and 2nd youngest of my siblings.. I really wish my older siblings were as understanding as you are...your sisters are incredibly lucky to have you :)❤
I watch you every day and it makes me happy that someone is taking about this😊
I cried while watching this. I'm going through a hard time.
realizing how messed up i am emotionally
I'm recovering from SH and depression. It's been alot recently, but reading comments of people that experienced almost the same things as me is reassuring in a way. It makes me feel that I'm not alone. This video is really informative and not only people with depression or people that thinks they have it can learn from but also normal people that may be friends with a person with depression. Having this as a reference to it is really helpful on how you can help the people around you that you may suspect has it. Remember, just being there for someone is already doing something. Sometimes people don't seek for someone to talk to, but someone to listen.
you got it!
I have no friends isolated with a narcissist...I can't wait for therapy
Your voice itself is so healing..The mic you use is so awesome that it records ur voice so crisp and clear...
genuinely think i'm depressed but don't wanna accept it
physical pain is a big one I didn't notice. it was just normal after a while, aches and belly pain usually. just assumed I was sleeping wrong or ate smth a little out of date
Im 34. I had been depressed since early teenage years. Now im so used to it.
my therapist told me I'm depressed I just like watching these videos so I don't feel alone in it
I could'nt watch the whole entire all of because i got trauma and emotianal, My parents started giving me death threats since i was 6 or 5 and i gor brainwashed into thinking that it was normal but now when i see this ( i did not watch the entire thing since i got emotional ) 😢 And the thing is when they saw me crying they said "you are such a crybaby" and threatened to kill me.. Nowadays im 12 y/o and they ask me why im scared of them.
I lost my brother in law to suicide almost two years ago. My dad died 23 days later, after four years with Dementia. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to climb out of this. I go to bed at five pm, and stay there for more than twelve hours. It’s the nay thing I look forward to.
I hope you will... I hope you will.
Life changes all the time, everything will have a new meaning to it so hopefully something shifts into your favor. Stay strong
You can overcome it, we can. 💪🏻
Hug online for youu... Its okay to not be okay, bestie..
Sorry for your losses.
I hope as you take one task at a time, one day at a time, things will start to look better. Have hope.
Dang , now im sure im depressed but , your voice is so comforting omg
Thank you this channel has literally saved my life and made me realize that I have people that won't just shun me for my depression

I honestly really love seeing a bunch of people in the comments being all positive and cheer up for each other, it really brings me a smile. as for myself I also trying to fix myself up for a better tomorrow, even though it can be hard sometimes.
