    When I search up videos of people dealing with depression to try to feel not so alone, I end up feeling even more alone. Even other people with depression seem happier than me. People can see my depression on my face and my body language and they treat me differently because of it. I try to hide it and it still comes through. I hardly have the energy and motivation to fake a smile. I feel so alone.

    I cried so hard while watching this video. I genuinely know how BAAAD it feels to feel empty. During the peak of my depression, it felt so scary and disgusting to wake up feeling empty, fall asleep at night still feeling empty, and going through the day and facing people with a smile, ALL while still feeling empty. I'm just really really happy that you have found even a glimpse of light in that dark cave you are currently in, Kaiti. I also thought before that there is no end in what I'm feeling.. but I'm proud to say that I am here, after almost 2 years.. present and alive. Not fully happy, not fully at peace, but still breathing and existing. Love you so much, my Kaiti Yoo. 💗

      Pls Do Gyan mudra /chin mudra everyday for atleast 30 minutes. Also do Ashtanga yoga everyday, especially pranayam and meditation. You can also wear rudraksha mala which has been proven to help mentally. Have lots of natural sunlight(vitamin d helps a lot). Have a good ayurvedic diet which has all important minerals and vitamins. All this helps a lot in anxiety and depressive disorder and it's proven. It helped me too.
      Even if you can't do all others, do the chin mudra. Best of luck !

      Oh dear heart..Try the Carnivore diet!! (all meat and meat by products ) People are giving many anecdotal reports of getting set free from long standing major depression and anxiety on this diet!! It seems to happen very quickly too!! The carnivore testimonials are all over the internet right now!! ..And also; from a more spiritual standpoint now.. I would encourage you to try opening your mouth and praying to God, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and say: "Lord Jesus please save me and be my Lord..I give you my life today..Please take it and make of it what you will..I thank you for loving me and hearing me now!!" ...My heartfelt and loving prayers going with you

    The thing about hurrying is an American mentality. Yesterday I saw there was a line behind me at self checkout but for once I decided I didn’t need to rush to finish as quick as possible and could do the task calmly. It’s not rude to slow down, it’s about giving weight and energy to the right things.

    The scariest thing is that you seem so okay. People can not see what happens within a person if it is not an obvious wound. So much healing has to come and it will.
    My dad died on this Christmas Day, I was only 14. My mum’s had serious mental health problems and has been unstable my entire life. I have been struggling so much and people can’t see it. It makes you feel helpless and invisible.
    I just want to let anyone out there know that you will get through this. You can and will. Even though you have a lot to get through, the light is always lurking somewhere in the dark, you just have to find it.

    Seasonal depression is the worst, it definitely got to me back when I thought it was *me* that was the problem. It never is. Trust me, you'll get better if you keep bettering yourself. Keep away from crap foods, get sun and fresh air everyday, keep moving around and try not to sit still for long amounts of time. I find the easiest exercise for me personally is going up and down stairs, even if in short bursts, but each person has something that works for them. Don't start with a lot, even 5 minutes of being outside in the sun a day, and 2 minutes of exercise, is good enough at first.
    A lot of people think depression comes from bad experiences and traumatic events, when it doesn't, not directly. Such events are catalysts that start you on your spiraling path, but life choices, even the smallest ones, are what determine whether you're able to detour from it. Whether life events tear you down, or make you stronger, is entirely dependent on the choices you make. The path to beating depression is not a short one, it takes months of small consistent steps to get better. But it does get better.
    I believe in you! I believe in all of you!

But don’t give up.. comply to your meds and it usually takes 3-4 weeks to feel relief but in my case, I wasn’t sleeping well and feeling physiololigical symptoms.. it took me 5 months to really feel a relief. And for now, I’m back to normal Praise God! Therapy helps and don’t stop taking meds once you started unless your doctor tell you to do so. Try to change your routine.

    Kaiti, I was recently going through another season of utter numbness and apathy even after I celebrated recovering from depression. Sometimes I wonder if this is just going to be a lifetime thing. But then I remember that this present suffering is nothing in comparison to the glory that God will reveal to us later. How much greater can that glory be??! But I’m writing this message because Psalm 40 has also been anchoring me in God’s promises during this “relapse”. “I waited patiently for the Lord to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along.” Praise God that He hears our cries! Praying for you, sister in Christ!

And if you're paying attention to HOW they're helpful, (even if it's not your perfect fit,) you will glean great wisdom from your journey. Wishing you the best of luck, and better days ahead!! :)

    This is video is more important than you'll ever know. People need to be able to see what depression is from a day to day period. I have had periods of depression that were absolutely debilitating and would spend weeks without ever leaving the house. Suicidal thoughts would cross my mind most of the day. This lasted for 5-6 years. Now I am in a great place, but depression is horrific. You're so brave. Thank you.

      Pls Do Gyan mudra /chin mudra everyday for atleast 30 minutes. It works very wonderfully. Also do Ashtanga yoga everyday, especially pranayam and meditation. You can also wear rudraksha mala which has been proven to help mentally. Have lots of natural sunlight(vitamin d helps a lot). Have a good ayurvedic diet which has all important minerals and vitamins. Do some intense exercise atleast 3 times a week as exercise produces good happy hormones. All this helps a lot in anxiety and depressive disorder and it's proven. It helped me immensely too.
      Even if you can't do all others, do the chin mudra. Best of luck !

    I (34) have been depresses all my life.
    The wors thing is that I'm depressed due to something that will never change, speaking I can't cruse my depression. I (33) have a learning disability. My IQ is approx 80. I got tested twice in school. It is mainly due to the fact that my mother drunk alcohol during her pregnancy (FASD spectrum/Fetal Alcohol Syndrome)
    Everything is harder in my life. No matter how hard I try, I always fail. I needed to visit special ed class till 18, I never had many friends, I never had the ability to visit college or achive high education, I only work at sign holder jobs...or fast food...currently I'm unemployed. I also never had a girlfriend, let alone something as a date. I still live with my parents. I couldn't survive on my own. I only learned how to do my taxes last year.
    I don't know what to do anymore. My counsellor gave me also antidepressants. But they don't help. All I ever wanted is to be healthy, but these pills can't change me. What should I do?

I still am ashamed of taking a therapy for this or any drugs. I was constantly told that Im only being lazy and procrastinating and Im not working to my best potential.
