I am a 15 year old boy now. I started to experience things like being unable to get out of bed, numbness, loss of interest and excessive tiredness during lockdown. My family members couldn't understand why I was behaving so wierd. They thought that I am getting lazy. My mom would force me to study, this made me hate studies. My mom would often beat me or throw me out of house. My dad would yell at me and my sister would think that I'm psycho. This left me in pain, loneliness and hopelessness. I have been suffering from depression for more than 2 years now. Sometimes, I sleep at 6 or don't eat anything for hours or start crying for no reason or worse, get suicidal thoughts. I act like there's nothing wrong when I'm outside. I smile, crack jokes and make everyone laugh. Yeah, I get happy temporarily but it's a different story when I am alone. No one would have the slightest doubt that I'm depressed until something happens. I smile when I'm outside and cry when I'm alone.
It's really sucks, being depressed for so long and don't have the opportunity to share your feelings with someone. If you have friends, maybe you should talk about this with them and don't hide your feelings. You deserve to be happy, so please don't give up and continue to live. I understand, that is easy to say than actually do something, and maybe my advice will sound stupid, but you can try enjoy simple things like sunshine in the morning or eating your favorite food, trying something you never did (like hobby). When you depressed even these little actions seems impossible to do, but you have to try it and praise yourself for it. Even if you don't believe in yourself, I will. You may never see this comment, but I hope that you get through your problems and find happiness in life one day.
Talk to a teacher or a librarian. If you belong to a church, talk to them. The important is to get someone to listen to you. Best of luck to you, Sunny.
can feel it. But you are here, your fate wants you to get better. Never leave the hope. You can make things better. YOU CAN. Maybe watch Jordan B Peterson, he can help you for sure. Good Luck
Zoning out/staring out into nothing, hear people talking but feel like their words just fly through your skull, in one ear, out the other. Memory issues, days blend together. And much more 😨

I got diagnosed with depression. I've been dealing with this struggle for 6 weeks now. It's really hard to explain how it feels having depression. It's something invisible. I started having suicidal thoughts and idea's of how to end myself. I reached out for help and now I got medication that will help me relax more. I have more respect now for mental health than I ever had before. The only hope I can give to people struggling: Get yourself help before it's too late. Often we don't see our problems and think it's our own fault. That's not true! Trust your psychologist.
@@arpitaashok2342 that is sad to hear, but keep trying! There are many online resources, some of them free. Plus a variety of self-help books that may be useful and can be found online for free
Yes... I agree, that's something like: words doesn't effect me so its not like anybody can do anything anyways, its my problem. Try finding a point to hold, at some point i started to feel better for a while and i made with myself a little promise, I might regret it sometimes but its what keeping me alive. Try finding something too
This is the part where you would try to reach out to someone(s) you have. And give some signs that somethin is on. These signs can be just little hints or you actually asking for help.
To anyone who feels like they are different because of the depressive symptoms they are experiencing, just know that... YOU ARE NOT ALONE!! there are many people out there that do understand or can relate or even feel the same. These videos can guide you to understanding your symptoms and point you to getting the help you need to cope/manage a more healthy life.. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP.... YOU ARE LOVED!
I think it's even worse when your roommates/friends begin to feel some sort of way when you don't hang out with them as much despite them knowing you are struggling with mental health. And when you are going "no contact" with family. It's hard to find anyone who feels like a safe space in your personal life, I'm grateful for my therapist but I also wish I had someone to lean on in my personal life
Psych2Go, you have been my therapist for the past few years and I'm extremely grateful for what you're doing. Please keep it and have more success in the future. Thank you
I had almost all the mentioned symptoms and signs.Continued therapy, medications and prayers helped me to overcome these situations. Nowdays I try to be guiding light to others.Not only I counsel others but also try to bring a smile on their face. My therapist, Ms. Sikha at CIP had advised me that the best therapy to overcome the pain is to act as a soother to others and really it has a positive effect on me tremendously. Recently people thanked me for sparing time for a lady at a Primary Health Centre at our campus.There were many but none came forward for help. I am happy that she would remember me at least for a couple of days.Not monterery but blessings really calm me.
@@ashitha_ajith NEXITO -10,an antidepressant and Qutipin 25 - a sedative. Both were prescribed by my Psychiatrist.You won't get it from the pharmacy until you are recommended by your doctor in written and that too with signature and seal of the doctor. Do not take without consulting. God be with you and Hope so you recover from your mental issues.
@@nick27march did u get side effects? I always refused them because my father got sent to a mental hospital because of the anti depressants...they were worse than drugs for him.
@@fable_enthusiast No No...I didn't had any side effects.I took under the guidance of my Psychiatrist but one thing I must say that as time passes by you should avoid taking it.
When you thought you are emotionally strong but after watching this video you actually have some of these signs is just terrifying! It's indeed hidden signs of depression and deadly when left unresolved. Thank you for spreading awareness!
I like to watch videos about depression because it gives me a chance to judge my progress honestly. One of the common sayings about depression I hate because it sounds very dismissive is that depression is like catching a cold. But, it's not. It doesn't just go away. You honestly have to work at your hardest to even make an iota of progress at healing yourself. I've also realized through therapy and taking medications that you have to be open to change mentally to make changes within yourself. My family doctor has said I've probably had depression for a long time since my sleeping problems have started during my adolescence. I've worked through most of these symptoms and accepted that there is no better or worse me for not feeling my best at times. I will probably experience insomnia as an ongoing problem, but I'm working through it through my diet and herbal medicines (ashwaganha and tart cherry pills seems to work for me). I've also started to take glycine and l-theanine because I wanted to sleep earlier than 4:30 am or later in the night. I've accepted that antidepressents don't work for me because it makes me zone out the following day and worsens my anxiety because I can't get anything done. Symtons #2 and 4 is playing havok with my concentration at work and studies so I've asked my doctor to prescribe me with low dosage of adhd medication. Hopefully, this will increase my concentration levels. If you have severe "allergic" reactions to taking more medications because you're thinking enough is enough, you don't need to go full throttle all the way to heal. Just take one step at a time. Because pre-depression, I was always through emotional wringer with all the physical examinations, blood tests, and changes in diet, etc. I had to go through since I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and started blaming myself, and just wanted a timeline to get through everything to call it quits. But, I learned too late that physical and emotional healing is an ongoing process and that there is no finish line. It all starts with self-care. Please love yourself first.
Life is hard. I struggle with depression. I struggle with extreme anger issues And I struggle with ADHD. This means, I can’t control any emotions but anger is the one that takes over a lot (cause I cannot control it) and this adhd is making me just do things without knowing, and getting yelled at for it is making my depression peak higher. Please everyone remember this quote. “Treat everyone the same as you want to be treated yourself.”
The worst thing about being drained by your depression is when you get to the point when you don't want to even try anymore, your brain is just so tired of this fight that it thinks "Screw that, I am so exhausted"...😔
I'm not sure after a while i just got used to it sucking and was like, "well this sucks but it might not suck later and when i get to later i might think that i should have done something here, so i pronably should do something"
I've been feeling a lot of these lately and i start feeling like im going to throw up and sometimes i do, i keep telling myself that its just cuz im eating to much or or to little or not drinking enough water but all signs i have point to depression and i dont want to fall back in that hole, i dont feel helpless and guilty again. Sorry if this is a vent but i felt like saying something or anything but i hope all of you who are watching this feeling the same that i do, has an amazing life and i hope you can get out of this mental state
Remember: depressed means deep rest from the persona you're 'playing'. I remember from a clip, Jim Carrey describing depression as "I don't want to play this character anymore". Taking antidepressants may help, but that unfortunately won't solve anything; unless you take a deep rest from whatever persona is causing depression. Also advice from someone who went through brutal spiritual awakenings: being depressed is a factor of life; as in, it's ok to be depressed and have no idea why. By allowing oneself to simply feel, observe, and learn (without becoming or labeling that emotion, action, etc to oneself) that will grant tools. Tools to help with future bouts of any negative or positive aspects of life.
The first part hurt me, because i always hide, i always use some kind of lie, and at some point when its breaking down my only option is just to either say something random or say everythings fine, and its almost like im losing the control over my own body, that's horrible. The second one is quite a hit in the soft spot too, i always like to think and listen, but most of the time its just the same things. Hope i didnt made it too weird lol, my English is bad
I don't really want to tell people about this, I've been inflicting self-harm (1 month ago, I stopped) for some time and I think they may think I am psychotic. But really, I've been very aware of negative things.
This is profound because this is how I feel about being me. I was really just thinking that being this guy that I am in a world that doesn’t seem to care about weirdo nerds like me who don’t interface well with people is really exhausting. Sometimes I just want to be someone else. Leave everything I love about me behind and just be bland and safe. It would be so peaceful to just walk away from all my goals and projects and… ugh it feels so good to ponder it, tbh. Thanks you for commenting!
yeah, no, it's absolutely not ok, being robbed of ones life metaphorically and literally, i don't know how one can say that is ok, recognizing the issue and taking steps to solve or at least make the situation better is the only thing that's ok
I feel like worst part of depression for me is that I feel so unattractive and so insecure. Even though people tell that I look attractive, I do not feel that way. I feel hopeless...
Most of these apply to me, esspecially finding things we used to love boring and tedious. I been sleeping in more on school days, to the point where i have very little time to get ready
I have an IBD, and ever since i was discharged from the hospital, these signs had starting accumulating. I didnt think much of it. I thought it was “me being lazy” or “still being in that mood” from when i was in the hospital. But, its been 3 years. Nothings changed and ever since i started school again and my studies had been getting harder, and i found myself stuck in this pile of stress. I get sudden mood swings all of the time. I wake up too early. Or too late. It takes me almost 2 hours to make the hard decision to get out of bed, eat food, brush my teeth, brush hair, and pick an outfit for the day so i don’t have to stay inside and stick to my daily habit of walking, which is one of the only parts of the day i actually look forward to. Even then, i find myself struggling to walk out the door. Its tiring. These videos help me a lot, and make some parts of my day better. Thank you for reading this long tangent :)
I am still a teen, not above 16 yet but I have been feeling quite disappointed in myself, feeling shame, feeling regret, and feeling angry at myself in a spurt and it makes me feel violent. I can't scream, I can't take it out quietly or peacefully. My parents are absolutely amazing, I feel like shit for feeling this way because I have everything I need for a happy life, but everything I have learned, my passions, and my plans for the future is overshadowed by stress, demotivation, and self-deprecating thoughts. I used to have so much passion years ago. Now I'm a student who has low grades, procrastinates a lot, and can't even get myself up to wake up, but I have to. I have school. I have a life I need to keep alive. But I can't.
You can't help the way you feel. It's not your fault. Sometimes it is a chemical imbalance in your brain. You did nothing wrong. Tell your parents or guidance counselor how you feel and do not blame yourself. Hang in there. I wish you all the best.
@@tashasimmons747 Oh hey, I don't even remember commenting this. But here's an update: My life has been going great, i've been out from my terrible mindset of beating myself down into a depressive spiral to a pulp and letting myself stay in that state, I averaged a grade of 93 at my 3rd and 4th quarter of school, still procrastinate a lot, i'm no longer suicidal, I love my piano and violin, turns out my parents were not, in fact, as great and as caring as I thought, and I wake up at 6 in the morning every day. Oh and I have ADHD and Autism. Though, I am too self aware of my actions and thoughts. I'm still angry at people for wrong reasons. I can't control these random moments where I get bursts of anger and punch something like a wall, or a window. it's like a balloon being filled with water. The balloon is holding a big mess and more water is being pumped in, the more dangerous it becomes when the balloon eventually pops. I have to burst the balloon while it's still small so it doesn't grow bigger. I don't hate myself, I'm angry at myself. That's my main problem in life now.
@@iscribbleovermywork8009 Keep fighting! I'm glad you are making progress. You are an inspiration! It will be tough sometimes, but you are tougher. Best of luck to you.
Psilocybin containing mushroom 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 to survive depression
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again again but it’s just so hard to source out of there.
I was having this constant, unbearable anxiety because of university stress. Not until I came across bergwilly1, a very intelligent mycologist.He saved my life honestly
I’m feeling the same way too. I put too much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety level. I am so glad to be part of this community.
I finally asked for help. In a fit of sleep deprivation, tears, and desperation I texted and told my mom everything. She told me she wasn’t too surprised because the same happened to her around my age and her and my dad noticed I may have gotten it from her. Next week I’m going to see a professional. I’m nervous. *Really* nervous. But I know I needed this.
I got cyberbullied for an entire summer and I haven’t been the same ever since and it hurts because people just tell me to get over it, don’t want to hear it anymore, or toughen up. I was literally fighting suicidal thoughts because of it
After hearing those words "valued, important" made me cry my tears out because noone has ever told me that and instead I'm always called out as "worthless, useless".
While it’s not medically diagnosed, I’ve had depression for 18 months. It ebbs and flows, periods where I’m fine for several weeks and then I’ll fall into another episode. I’ve called my depression the “long war” where there are periods of “phoney war” where the front lines don’t move. I’m not depressed, but I know that mentally and emotionally speaking I’m not where I was before I sunk into my initial depression episode. All I can say to everyone here, your not alone, speak to friends, family and when you feel comfortable medical professions. But don’t push yourself, take it slow and easy when opening up to others. I would recommend get a diary and write down your thoughts, especially when you are at your lowest. Putting it on paper will allow you to work through your thoughts you are having. It will also help if you need to reference when speaking to someone. My thoughts go out to everyone going through depression. And it’s my hope my comment, even if it helps in the smallest way possible, helps share the burden.
Hey, i just wanted to thank u for all your videos they really helped me to ask my crush to go on a date. I'm just so happy making that decision because spending time with that person makes me unbelievably happy. 😊
I'm writing this here because it's free and convenient. I often think about death...ish. I'm not making plans to end my life, but I feel very pervasive thoughts to the tune of "Existence just feels like too much work for so little payoff", and even though I have people who care about me, all I see in myself is and endless number of reasons they'll want nothing to do with me sooner or later. I feel like I exist to be a problem. My undergraduate experience was a series of disastrous mistakes I'm still not forgiving myself for (which I acknowledge is my choice, I'm within my right to deprive myself of compassion if I see fit), followed by a few lousy experiences with part time jobs and volunteer service that led nowhere. I'm just now on a decent career path and all i see is work, leading to more work, leading to more work. In my current state of mind, at best it looks like my life will be just me dancing for peanuts in some form or other and I almost feel too scared to hope it'll amount to anything better. So I just think my death would be weirdly peaceful. I'm not gonna hurt myself, I'm physically safe. I'm just quietly seething about the mess I've seen my life become at this point.
I have sleeping problems, thinking of what people says about me, always complaining, easily change moods, thinking of suicide😢, finding attention of my parents and those i loved so much. That is what i always feel. Also at this day i feel the seperation anxiety coz i need to leave the place were i work and be in new place.
Don't commit suicide! Your situation is really awful and it might feel help- and hopeless, but I KNOW if you wait long enough, your life will be great someday an you will be out of the dark place you're in right now. I whish you all the luck in the world, keep your head up 🧡 And if you need someone to talk to, you can talk to me over here ✌
I'm here for you (digitally) if you really are feeling depressed. I've undergone this too. I hope you all have a nice day and please, you are not useless. Everyone has a purpose.
Yea I think I am still dealing with points 2 and 4 and sometimes nr 5 as well. I think it is not so deep as it used to be but I still had not got rid of it. And nr 9 likes to strike back as well. AND I know I said it once but the style of this animator is really sweet x3 Such animations are really relaxing to watch and hear. I really need DIS. And today's topic is VERY important so I can't find proper words to say how valuable this episode is.
i can describe how depression feels like so imagine a white space, with your house, friends, everything that makes you feel happy is there. okay good, now try to move towards what you want, its what you want after all, but those things are moving further away from you if you run, walk or just move towards it. Behind you, a tsunami appears, threatening to harm you if you dont move(this is motivation), but you feel heavy, suddenly unable to move, you feel hopeless that you cannot outrun the tsunami nor get to have all the things you want. after that, inevitably, you will get devoured by the tsunami, and slowly drowning you, the hopelessness continues, while you feel dead, unwell, demotivated inside, slowly killing you, sinking to the depths of pain. after a while, you will get used to it. You are not dying, but dying, stuck in this phase forever, you saw all the things you once adored are all destroyed and ruined by the tsunami by itself(true apathy). It feels like there is no point, everything is ruined, there is no more hope, you feel lost, sad, suffering in this state is called depression
Now take a deep breath. You can swim to the top, I believe in you and understand what you are feeling. As you pull yourself out of the water, you find yourself at the destination, or thing you wanted, or close to it. This is what getting better, or starting to, feels like. Take your time, get some help, you aren’t alone
I have nine out of ten symptoms. Though I know that lately I've been feeling burnt out, I don't mention my problems to anyone as they will likely not understand. I just want to say, teenage depression isn't just a phase or stage, but a factor to face in depression. The sad thing is, whenever I try to open up to my parents and talk about my problems or find a therapist to handle them, they just ignore me and say that I'm disrespectful, making the whole thing an endless cycle.
@@bhumikaroy2739 I'm doing great lately, and I finally had the courage to open up to my mother, thanks to all my friends' and all of you guys' support!! Thank you so much, and happy new year to you too! ❤
I feel like the worst part of depression for me is that I feel so unattractive and so insecure. Even though people tell me that I look attractive, I do not feel that way. I feel hopeless...
My friend had asked me if I had depression a day ago and after watching this I am not sure if I should self diagnose. I have all but one symptoms. I hope I can overcome this.❤
They don't know how you feel inside. Trust your gut. Don't let ignorant people deter you from finding help. Hang in there. I wish you a fast recovery❤❤❤
2 years ago I 2as taken to a therapist after my mental health worsened over lockdown. I wasn't diagnosed for the sole purpose that my appetite wasnt affected. Now that I am doing a research essay on depression, i realize that there aren't 1 or 2 symptoms to it. The therapist I was taken to asked me 2 questions, something like this: "Has your daily life been affected by this?" "yes" "Has your appetite changed at all?" "No". "Then you don't need to worry about anything. My appetite has changed for as long as I can remember, sometimes I want to constantly eat and others I go a whole day without eating, so I didn't notice any changes. I need to go back but I'm scared of what my parents will say or do if I ask, more specifically, "What's wrong? Why do you want to talk to a therapist? You can tell us anything"
I have never tried to reach out to anyone about certain things, which I still don't know why would happen but this video kind of made me concerned about myself. My stomach have always been weak, but nowadays, even if I eat little or just enough, it hurts all the time. Also, I have always struggled with fat and obesity which made me think of myself as a piece of sh*t. People describe me as cheerful and extroverted but I just don't feel like it. When I am with others I feel like someone else... I have extreme mood swings which I thought are related to my menstrual cycle, but apparently, I don't even have one anymore. I am 22 and doctors don't know what is wrong with me. Often times I feel tired and sleep early only to wake up in the middle of the night in panic, looking at my clock. It's like time is non-existent in one moment and then it is pressurizing in the other. I don't understand this. I dropped my hobbies. Sometimes I feel like doing them, but not more than 10 or 20 minutes. I always suddenly feel an urge to just quit. Could this be depression? Idk. Maybe. I thought I would share my experiences hoping that others would also try to analyze themselves and seek help. I hope one day I will be able to do it myself.
Just don't expect to be understood most people sadly do not care, find people simular because they're much more likely to understand. Also people like reason so explain your toughtprocces to give more of an inside (don't overdramatize it talk about it like how they would to get it across) (also do not take this seriously i'm not in a position to give out advice)
All Of Them Relate Back Too Me In Some Way Shape Or Form (Apart From The Substance Abuse). Ever Since My Mom And Dad Split In February 2023, I've Been Isolating Myself More Than I Probably Should Be, One Second Im Happy And The Next, I Ask Myself What's Wrong With Me, I Found This Video A Couple Months Ago And I Kept Watching It Over And Over Again. I Have Constant Headaches From Time To Time, And So Much Other Stuff I Couldnt Explain Till I Found This Video, But Everyone I Talk Too About This Just Say, 'Think Positive' Or 'Pretend No Ones There' And My Answer Every Time Someone Says That Is 'Its Easier Said Than Done' Or 'Ok Then' And Then I Just Walk Away. The Only Reason They Say These Things Is Because Im Okay On The Outside I May Try And Be Funny, Fake Smile, Laugh. But When Im Alone I Just Randomly Become Sad, And Usually, It Stays Like That For The Rest Of The Day, And There Was This Website I Loved Going On And I Went On It Almost Everyday But Now It Feels Like A Chore To Just Enter The URL. Sometimes I Just wish I Screamed At Myself Wish I Had Told Myself, I Wish I Could Just Go Back In Time And Change Everything.
Does anybody else ever just think that there is no point in life, then while you sit down, can’t move, you just keep trying to find reasons but you just can’t?
I am going to send this to family. If I ever had that episode happen again, they can let me know it’s getting worse. But I also want them to know that it’s not there fault
I don’t like telling them or bringing it up to them. Depression almost got me to xxxx. Idk if they even remember my depression. Then again. Maybe they do. I just sent it to my sister with no comment since she enjoys this stuff. That’s all.
I cried while watching this, most of the symptoms that said on this video is what I actually feel for a couple of months and until now...and it affects my performance in school, my relationship with my family/friends, and I can't even do the things I usually loved, and day by day I feel like these feelings are getting worst.
I kind of see myself as some of the signs in this video, I have also had thoughts of death and suicide at various times, regretting it a few minutes later about even thinking about it, my parents are going through a divorce, and we don't have much money, literally, all our fridge has almost every day is eggs, milk, tortillas, and some other little stuff. I used to snack a lot before but we can't even afford snacks most of these days, they say I finish all the food even though I've been trying to eat as less as I can, sometimes I don't eat for a whole day or two, and I'm just tired of this. Even just writing this comment really makes me want to cry, still, considering all of this, I don't believe I'm depressed since I have 2 friends who have been with me since I was in 2nd grade and supporting me a ton.
Hello psych2go your video very helpful for me and i know how people feel when he Deepression and try to be productive because after months i feel also but when i go to a vacation and came out its totally changed my mind and this time I have very productive day and i enjoyed everyday because our life is very precious and we have to enjoy our life without any tension i hope this comment help someone to peace in life Be happy no matter how hard it time it will change in good time be faith 💛💛💫💫
It’s the way I’m going through this and have to act like everything is perfectly fine to my parents or it’s all a punishment and shame I should feel abt myself if I tell them the truth. I just wish they cared about my mental health as much as they do about physical. Instead of them punishing me. I just don’t feel any emotional safeness with them so will never truly open up to them about my emotions.
I recently got diagnosed with PTSD and PMDD so at least I can associate my depression with something out of my control, but the medicine has yet to help me feel better. I don't want to feel like a burden. I don't want to get pain in my hands when I put myself down or apologize for existing
my mood changes very easily, it annoys me when people get angry or judge me without understanding what im going through.. i slept through class and didnt complete my assignment on time because i cant bring myself to it... its gotten so bad i struggle to do daily things and focus and my facil got angry that i didnt hand up the assignment on time and sort of scolded me i got really really angry because he doesnt even know anything.. i keep getting nightmares of being chased or stuck in a place without exit i dont get good sleep i sleep in class not because i choose to.. i was talking to a friend about feeling like im sinking a few days ago and now im seeing this video say something about feeling like youre sinking.
I don't know how to tell my parents that I think I have social anxiety and might need therapy, so I'm currently sending my dad these videos with a note how many signs I had from each video... I hope we'll be able to actually *talk* about it, without getting interrupted or him changing the topic to make a joke real quick... I have sent him these kinda videos before, but nothing really came of it. That was a year ago. Anyway, thanks to everyone working with the Psych2go channel for making these videos!
Just go and say "i have been feeling off and i could really benefit from talking to a professional, can we maybe give it a shot?" The message is just so foward it is easy to just answer yes. Also your father might see these videos and think that they're just out of self pitty? I'm not sure so do not take this seriously
The worst part is, when you can lay down and do nothing, I feel the worst of guilt and like I'm wasting my life.

No one would have the slightest doubt that I'm depressed until something happens.
I smile when I'm outside and cry when I'm alone.
It's really sucks, being depressed for so long and don't have the opportunity to share your feelings with someone. If you have friends, maybe you should talk about this with them and don't hide your feelings. You deserve to be happy, so please don't give up and continue to live. I understand, that is easy to say than actually do something, and maybe my advice will sound stupid, but you can try enjoy simple things like sunshine in the morning or eating your favorite food, trying something you never did (like hobby). When you depressed even these little actions seems impossible to do, but you have to try it and praise yourself for it. Even if you don't believe in yourself, I will. You may never see this comment, but I hope that you get through your problems and find happiness in life one day.
Talk to a teacher or a librarian. If you belong to a church, talk to them. The important is to get someone to listen to you. Best of luck to you, Sunny.
can feel it. But you are here, your fate wants you to get better. Never leave the hope. You can make things better. YOU CAN. Maybe watch Jordan B Peterson, he can help you for sure. Good Luck
that's almost same condition like me
I'm 16 now(turned few days ago)
I hope things go well
Hope you find true happiness past your outward smile, hang in there, you got this.
Zoning out/staring out into nothing, hear people talking but feel like their words just fly through your skull, in one ear, out the other. Memory issues, days blend together. And much more 😨
It always surprised me that I understand that I may have depression, but despite this, I continue to consider myself a lazy egoist.

I’ve got most of these can somEbody help me
Thanks :) I have about 5 or six of these signs, im trying to get better though. :) i'm taking whatecer steps I can to heal. and healing as stated in a Psych2go Video, is not always linear:)
I have all of them
@@Economisttraveller try to find a therapist there might be free options or through your job insurance or health care. Please do a little research on how to find a therapist. There are people who can help you. You will be good, you are enough but help is needed as well. Take care please I understand your struggle I am struggling too. We are gonna make it through we are growing and becoming stronger. ✌️ ❤️😊
Remember to take rest, sleep enough and do some pleasnet things. You deserve to feel good
I have all those signs😥
I got diagnosed with depression. I've been dealing with this struggle for 6 weeks now. It's really hard to explain how it feels having depression. It's something invisible. I started having suicidal thoughts and idea's of how to end myself. I reached out for help and now I got medication that will help me relax more. I have more respect now for mental health than I ever had before. The only hope I can give to people struggling: Get yourself help before it's too late. Often we don't see our problems and think it's our own fault. That's not true! Trust your psychologist.
I talked to my parents that I think I might need help and they said 'No you don't. You're fine' :)
I hope you get better soon, and always try to see the sunshine through the clouds, always know and see your worth!
@@arpitaashok2342 that is sad to hear, but keep trying! There are many online resources, some of them free. Plus a variety of self-help books that may be useful and can be found online for free
@@victorlapusneanu1486 Thank you. It's very kind of you.
Could you please tell me what medicine you are taking?
I’m at the stage where “Yes, I might be depressed. But now what, what should I do? I don’t wanna be depressed. How do I get rid of it..”
Yes... I agree, that's something like: words doesn't effect me so its not like anybody can do anything anyways, its my problem. Try finding a point to hold, at some point i started to feel better for a while and i made with myself a little promise, I might regret it sometimes but its what keeping me alive. Try finding something too
This is the part where you would try to reach out to someone(s) you have. And give some signs that somethin is on. These signs can be just little hints or you actually asking for help.
@@Lizard_Ri what a real big cheese, here for his promise not affected by silly words and communication
To anyone who feels like they are different because of the depressive symptoms they are experiencing, just know that... YOU ARE NOT ALONE!! there are many people out there that do understand or can relate or even feel the same. These videos can guide you to understanding your symptoms and point you to getting the help you need to cope/manage a more healthy life.. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP.... YOU ARE LOVED!
I think it's even worse when your roommates/friends begin to feel some sort of way when you don't hang out with them as much despite them knowing you are struggling with mental health. And when you are going "no contact" with family. It's hard to find anyone who feels like a safe space in your personal life, I'm grateful for my therapist but I also wish I had someone to lean on in my personal life
Psych2Go, you have been my therapist for the past few years and I'm extremely grateful for what you're doing. Please keep it and have more success in the future. Thank you
I’ve been diagnosed with anxiety and depression and watching this video hits home with me on many levels 🥺
I had almost all the mentioned symptoms and signs.Continued therapy, medications and prayers helped me to overcome these situations.
Nowdays I try to be guiding light to others.Not only I counsel others but also try to bring a smile on their face.
My therapist, Ms. Sikha at CIP had advised me that the best therapy to overcome the pain is to act as a soother to others and really it has a positive effect on me tremendously.
Recently people thanked me for sparing time for a lady at a Primary Health Centre at our campus.There were many but none came forward for help.
I am happy that she would remember me at least for a couple of days.Not monterery but blessings really calm me.
Could you please tell me what medication you are taking?
@@ashitha_ajith NEXITO -10,an antidepressant and Qutipin 25 - a sedative.
Both were prescribed by my Psychiatrist.You won't get it from the pharmacy until you are recommended by your doctor in written and that too with signature and seal of the doctor.
Do not take without consulting.
God be with you and Hope so you recover from your mental issues.
@@nick27march did u get side effects? I always refused them because my father got sent to a mental hospital because of the anti depressants...they were worse than drugs for him.
@@fable_enthusiast No No...I didn't had any side effects.I took under the guidance of my Psychiatrist but one thing I must say that as time passes by you should avoid taking it.
@@nick27march that was probably the problem, my father started cutting them off all of a sudden and then taking them again
When you thought you are emotionally strong but after watching this video you actually have some of these signs is just terrifying! It's indeed hidden signs of depression and deadly when left unresolved. Thank you for spreading awareness!
Thanks so much for this video, it's amazing how these little signs can all add up to depression.
Except the last one, its a pretty big sign and for me it was the big red flag even before i checked anything about psychology
I like to watch videos about depression because it gives me a chance to judge my progress honestly. One of the common sayings about depression I hate because it sounds very dismissive is that depression is like catching a cold. But, it's not. It doesn't just go away. You honestly have to work at your hardest to even make an iota of progress at healing yourself. I've also realized through therapy and taking medications that you have to be open to change mentally to make changes within yourself. My family doctor has said I've probably had depression for a long time since my sleeping problems have started during my adolescence. I've worked through most of these symptoms and accepted that there is no better or worse me for not feeling my best at times. I will probably experience insomnia as an ongoing problem, but I'm working through it through my diet and herbal medicines (ashwaganha and tart cherry pills seems to work for me). I've also started to take glycine and l-theanine because I wanted to sleep earlier than 4:30 am or later in the night. I've accepted that antidepressents don't work for me because it makes me zone out the following day and worsens my anxiety because I can't get anything done. Symtons #2 and 4 is playing havok with my concentration at work and studies so I've asked my doctor to prescribe me with low dosage of adhd medication. Hopefully, this will increase my concentration levels. If you have severe "allergic" reactions to taking more medications because you're thinking enough is enough, you don't need to go full throttle all the way to heal. Just take one step at a time. Because pre-depression, I was always through emotional wringer with all the physical examinations, blood tests, and changes in diet, etc. I had to go through since I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and started blaming myself, and just wanted a timeline to get through everything to call it quits. But, I learned too late that physical and emotional healing is an ongoing process and that there is no finish line. It all starts with self-care. Please love yourself first.
Life is hard.
I struggle with depression.
I struggle with extreme anger issues
And I struggle with ADHD.
This means, I can’t control any emotions but anger is the one that takes over a lot (cause I cannot control it) and this adhd is making me just do things without knowing, and getting yelled at for it is making my depression peak higher.
Please everyone remember this quote.
“Treat everyone the same as you want to be treated yourself.”
You always post when we most need it, thank you psychGo
The worst thing about being drained by your depression is when you get to the point when you don't want to even try anymore, your brain is just so tired of this fight that it thinks "Screw that, I am so exhausted"...😔
I'm not sure after a while i just got used to it sucking and was like, "well this sucks but it might not suck later and when i get to later i might think that i should have done something here, so i pronably should do something"
I've been feeling a lot of these lately and i start feeling like im going to throw up and sometimes i do, i keep telling myself that its just cuz im eating to much or or to little or not drinking enough water but all signs i have point to depression and i dont want to fall back in that hole, i dont feel helpless and guilty again. Sorry if this is a vent but i felt like saying something or anything but i hope all of you who are watching this feeling the same that i do, has an amazing life and i hope you can get out of this mental state
Remember: depressed means deep rest from the persona you're 'playing'. I remember from a clip, Jim Carrey describing depression as "I don't want to play this character anymore".
Taking antidepressants may help, but that unfortunately won't solve anything; unless you take a deep rest from whatever persona is causing depression.
Also advice from someone who went through brutal spiritual awakenings: being depressed is a factor of life; as in, it's ok to be depressed and have no idea why. By allowing oneself to simply feel, observe, and learn (without becoming or labeling that emotion, action, etc to oneself) that will grant tools. Tools to help with future bouts of any negative or positive aspects of life.
The first part hurt me, because i always hide, i always use some kind of lie, and at some point when its breaking down my only option is just to either say something random or say everythings fine, and its almost like im losing the control over my own body, that's horrible. The second one is quite a hit in the soft spot too, i always like to think and listen, but most of the time its just the same things. Hope i didnt made it too weird lol, my English is bad
I don't really want to tell people about this, I've been inflicting self-harm (1 month ago, I stopped) for some time and I think they may think I am psychotic. But really, I've been very aware of negative things.
This is profound because this is how I feel about being me. I was really just thinking that being this guy that I am in a world that doesn’t seem to care about weirdo nerds like me who don’t interface well with people is really exhausting. Sometimes I just want to be someone else. Leave everything I love about me behind and just be bland and safe. It would be so peaceful to just walk away from all my goals and projects and… ugh it feels so good to ponder it, tbh. Thanks you for commenting!
Definitely see a therapist! They can definitely help. Good luck!
yeah, no, it's absolutely not ok, being robbed of ones life metaphorically and literally, i don't know how one can say that is ok, recognizing the issue and taking steps to solve or at least make the situation better is the only thing that's ok
I feel like worst part of depression for me is that I feel so unattractive and so insecure. Even though people tell that I look attractive, I do not feel that way. I feel hopeless...
it definitely has that dysmorphia factor to it.
I feel you
Most of these apply to me, esspecially finding things we used to love boring and tedious. I been sleeping in more on school days, to the point where i have very little time to get ready
you posted at the right time i was feeling very stresed but then when i saw your vid it made me cheer up . thanks :)
Your voice is one of the most soothing things I’ve ever heard. Reminds me of my mom..😞
I have an IBD, and ever since i was discharged from the hospital, these signs had starting accumulating. I didnt think much of it. I thought it was “me being lazy” or “still being in that mood” from when i was in the hospital. But, its been 3 years. Nothings changed and ever since i started school again and my studies had been getting harder, and i found myself stuck in this pile of stress. I get sudden mood swings all of the time. I wake up too early. Or too late. It takes me almost 2 hours to make the hard decision to get out of bed, eat food, brush my teeth, brush hair, and pick an outfit for the day so i don’t have to stay inside and stick to my daily habit of walking, which is one of the only parts of the day i actually look forward to. Even then, i find myself struggling to walk out the door. Its tiring. These videos help me a lot, and make some parts of my day better. Thank you for reading this long tangent :)
I am still a teen, not above 16 yet but I have been feeling quite disappointed in myself, feeling shame, feeling regret, and feeling angry at myself in a spurt and it makes me feel violent. I can't scream, I can't take it out quietly or peacefully. My parents are absolutely amazing, I feel like shit for feeling this way because I have everything I need for a happy life, but everything I have learned, my passions, and my plans for the future is overshadowed by stress, demotivation, and self-deprecating thoughts. I used to have so much passion years ago. Now I'm a student who has low grades, procrastinates a lot, and can't even get myself up to wake up, but I have to. I have school. I have a life I need to keep alive. But I can't.
You can't help the way you feel. It's not your fault. Sometimes it is a chemical imbalance in your brain. You did nothing wrong. Tell your parents or guidance counselor how you feel and do not blame yourself. Hang in there. I wish you all the best.
@@tashasimmons747 Oh hey, I don't even remember commenting this.
But here's an update:
My life has been going great, i've been out from my terrible mindset of beating myself down into a depressive spiral to a pulp and letting myself stay in that state, I averaged a grade of 93 at my 3rd and 4th quarter of school, still procrastinate a lot, i'm no longer suicidal, I love my piano and violin, turns out my parents were not, in fact, as great and as caring as I thought, and I wake up at 6 in the morning every day. Oh and I have ADHD and Autism.
Though, I am too self aware of my actions and thoughts. I'm still angry at people for wrong reasons. I can't control these random moments where I get bursts of anger and punch something like a wall, or a window. it's like a balloon being filled with water. The balloon is holding a big mess and more water is being pumped in, the more dangerous it becomes when the balloon eventually pops. I have to burst the balloon while it's still small so it doesn't grow bigger.
I don't hate myself, I'm angry at myself. That's my main problem in life now.
@@tashasimmons747 but thank you for the kind words. I appreciate it, and the me a year ago would have also appreciated it too.
@@iscribbleovermywork8009 Keep fighting! I'm glad you are making progress. You are an inspiration! It will be tough sometimes, but you are tougher. Best of luck to you.
Never been this early.
I'm depressed no doubt about it.
I just like the calming voice
Hope things get better dude-
@@Dr.D.R. thanks man. Hope alls well on your side.
Psilocybin containing mushroom 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 to survive depression
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again again but it’s just so hard to source out of there.
I was having this constant, unbearable anxiety because of university stress. Not until I came across bergwilly1, a very intelligent mycologist.He saved my life honestly
@@carsonelias4594 came across the comments about bergwilly1 and I must say he is a genius.
I’m feeling the same way too. I put too much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety level. I am so glad to be part of this community.
Is he on inSta?
I finally asked for help. In a fit of sleep deprivation, tears, and desperation I texted and told my mom everything. She told me she wasn’t too surprised because the same happened to her around my age and her and my dad noticed I may have gotten it from her. Next week I’m going to see a professional. I’m nervous. *Really* nervous. But I know I needed this.
I got cyberbullied for an entire summer and I haven’t been the same ever since and it hurts because people just tell me to get over it, don’t want to hear it anymore, or toughen up. I was literally fighting suicidal thoughts because of it
Thank you for your videos, I always find they make the biggest difference 🙏
After hearing those words "valued, important" made me cry my tears out because noone has ever told me that and instead I'm always called out as "worthless, useless".
Who calls you worthless? And why?
Do you wanna talk to me?
While it’s not medically diagnosed, I’ve had depression for 18 months. It ebbs and flows, periods where I’m fine for several weeks and then I’ll fall into another episode. I’ve called my depression the “long war” where there are periods of “phoney war” where the front lines don’t move.
I’m not depressed, but I know that mentally and emotionally speaking I’m not where I was before I sunk into my initial depression episode. All I can say to everyone here, your not alone, speak to friends, family and when you feel comfortable medical professions. But don’t push yourself, take it slow and easy when opening up to others. I would recommend get a diary and write down your thoughts, especially when you are at your lowest. Putting it on paper will allow you to work through your thoughts you are having. It will also help if you need to reference when speaking to someone.
My thoughts go out to everyone going through depression. And it’s my hope my comment, even if it helps in the smallest way possible, helps share the burden.
Hey, i just wanted to thank u for all your videos they really helped me to ask my crush to go on a date. I'm just so happy making that decision because spending time with that person makes me unbelievably happy. 😊
Love ur videos. Helped me become a better person in life.
I'm writing this here because it's free and convenient. I often think about death...ish. I'm not making plans to end my life, but I feel very pervasive thoughts to the tune of "Existence just feels like too much work for so little payoff", and even though I have people who care about me, all I see in myself is and endless number of reasons they'll want nothing to do with me sooner or later.
I feel like I exist to be a problem. My undergraduate experience was a series of disastrous mistakes I'm still not forgiving myself for (which I acknowledge is my choice, I'm within my right to deprive myself of compassion if I see fit), followed by a few lousy experiences with part time jobs and volunteer service that led nowhere. I'm just now on a decent career path and all i see is work, leading to more work, leading to more work. In my current state of mind, at best it looks like my life will be just me dancing for peanuts in some form or other and I almost feel too scared to hope it'll amount to anything better. So I just think my death would be weirdly peaceful.
I'm not gonna hurt myself, I'm physically safe. I'm just quietly seething about the mess I've seen my life become at this point.
I have sleeping problems, thinking of what people says about me, always complaining, easily change moods, thinking of suicide😢, finding attention of my parents and those i loved so much. That is what i always feel.
Also at this day i feel the seperation anxiety coz i need to leave the place were i work and be in new place.
🏊♂️
Don't commit suicide! Your situation is really awful and it might feel help- and hopeless, but I KNOW if you wait long enough, your life will be great someday an you will be out of the dark place you're in right now. I whish you all the luck in the world, keep your head up 🧡 And if you need someone to talk to, you can talk to me over here ✌
4:02 This part kinda made me feel a bit better about myself, ive needed and wanted to cry all day and this finally made me do just that.
This video makes me cry and happy at the same time
First
no
I'm here for you (digitally) if you really are feeling depressed. I've undergone this too. I hope you all have a nice day and please, you are not useless. Everyone has a purpose.
Your purpose has been to uplift and give hope. Thank you.
This channel knows me more than my parents.
Yea I think I am still dealing with points 2 and 4 and sometimes nr 5 as well. I think it is not so deep as it used to be but I still had not got rid of it. And nr 9 likes to strike back as well. AND I know I said it once but the style of this animator is really sweet x3 Such animations are really relaxing to watch and hear. I really need DIS. And today's topic is VERY important so I can't find proper words to say how valuable this episode is.
its 11:20 pm and im crying because of this video rn i love this
i can describe how depression feels like
so imagine a white space, with your house, friends, everything that makes you feel happy is there.
okay good, now try to move towards what you want, its what you want after all, but those things are moving further away from you if you run, walk or just move towards it.
Behind you, a tsunami appears, threatening to harm you if you dont move(this is motivation), but you feel heavy, suddenly unable to move, you feel hopeless that you cannot outrun the tsunami nor get to have all the things you want.
after that, inevitably, you will get devoured by the tsunami, and slowly drowning you, the hopelessness continues, while you feel dead, unwell, demotivated inside, slowly killing you, sinking to the depths of pain.
after a while, you will get used to it. You are not dying, but dying, stuck in this phase forever, you saw all the things you once adored are all destroyed and ruined by the tsunami by itself(true apathy). It feels like there is no point, everything is ruined, there is no more hope, you feel lost, sad, suffering in this state is called depression
Now take a deep breath. You can swim to the top, I believe in you and understand what you are feeling.
As you pull yourself out of the water, you find yourself at the destination, or thing you wanted, or close to it. This is what getting better, or starting to, feels like.
Take your time, get some help, you aren’t alone
This just answered a lot of questions for me.
I have nine out of ten symptoms. Though I know that lately I've been feeling burnt out, I don't mention my problems to anyone as they will likely not understand. I just want to say, teenage depression isn't just a phase or stage, but a factor to face in depression. The sad thing is, whenever I try to open up to my parents and talk about my problems or find a therapist to handle them, they just ignore me and say that I'm disrespectful, making the whole thing an endless cycle.
Do you wanna talk to me? It's ok if you don't

This has been soo helpful

My friend had asked me if I had depression a day ago and after watching this I am not sure if I should self diagnose. I have all but one symptoms. I hope I can overcome this.❤

i also have all but one..
@@rygqy2140 If you ever need to vent or talk things over I'm here💛
Therapy ✌ try to get professional help and a professional diagnose
I hope so too you can do this🫶🫶
It's hard because sometimes when you are looking for help the people around you just say " you don't look like you're having depression."
there is not some character type for what depressed people look like, but I guess its hard for healthy people to understand any of it.
They don't know how you feel inside. Trust your gut. Don't let ignorant people deter you from finding help. Hang in there. I wish you a fast recovery❤❤❤
I always thought I didn’t have anything like this but now I’m questioning myself.
I have been diagnosed with Severe depression and i can say that this video is accurate
2 years ago I 2as taken to a therapist after my mental health worsened over lockdown. I wasn't diagnosed for the sole purpose that my appetite wasnt affected. Now that I am doing a research essay on depression, i realize that there aren't 1 or 2 symptoms to it. The therapist I was taken to asked me 2 questions, something like this: "Has your daily life been affected by this?" "yes" "Has your appetite changed at all?" "No". "Then you don't need to worry about anything. My appetite has changed for as long as I can remember, sometimes I want to constantly eat and others I go a whole day without eating, so I didn't notice any changes. I need to go back but I'm scared of what my parents will say or do if I ask, more specifically, "What's wrong? Why do you want to talk to a therapist? You can tell us anything"
perfect video when i just asked myself like the title this came out thanks!
Thank you ❤
I have never tried to reach out to anyone about certain things, which I still don't know why would happen but this video kind of made me concerned about myself.
My stomach have always been weak, but nowadays, even if I eat little or just enough, it hurts all the time. Also, I have always struggled with fat and obesity which made me think of myself as a piece of sh*t.
People describe me as cheerful and extroverted but I just don't feel like it. When I am with others I feel like someone else...
I have extreme mood swings which I thought are related to my menstrual cycle, but apparently, I don't even have one anymore. I am 22 and doctors don't know what is wrong with me.
Often times I feel tired and sleep early only to wake up in the middle of the night in panic, looking at my clock. It's like time is non-existent in one moment and then it is pressurizing in the other. I don't understand this.
I dropped my hobbies. Sometimes I feel like doing them, but not more than 10 or 20 minutes. I always suddenly feel an urge to just quit.
Could this be depression? Idk. Maybe. I thought I would share my experiences hoping that others would also try to analyze themselves and seek help.
I hope one day I will be able to do it myself.
3:43... thank you for this reminder 💕
Being misunderstood can be a big trigger for causing depression also. It makes you feel lonely.
Just don't expect to be understood most people sadly do not care, find people simular because they're much more likely to understand. Also people like reason so explain your toughtprocces to give more of an inside (don't overdramatize it talk about it like how they would to get it across) (also do not take this seriously i'm not in a position to give out advice)
Been goin through this for years. Probably hanging at the end of the rope at this point.
living with depression is like watching a show without colour and audio:)
I'm having a bullshit job, no love relationship, got hit by some kind of mid-life crisis, yeah, I'm not depressed, it's just life. Got used to it.
Me who already knows I am: Well I might as well watch it for fun.
I'm not suicidal but think about it often,
This really help me
Merci beaucoup pour toute le beau & bon travail! C'est très apprécié/important se que vous faite !!! 🙏🕊❤️
i think i truly think im depressed and this video proved it more cause most of not all applies to me except for the pain part
I didn't realize I relate to some of these... alot of these...
I've had some of those signs before. You push forward from it and get better from it. 🙂
I have felt all of these things except for seven and i’m still like this today
All Of Them Relate Back Too Me In Some Way Shape Or Form (Apart From The Substance Abuse). Ever Since My Mom And Dad Split In February 2023, I've Been Isolating Myself More Than I Probably Should Be, One Second Im Happy And The Next, I Ask Myself What's Wrong With Me, I Found This Video A Couple Months Ago And I Kept Watching It Over And Over Again. I Have Constant Headaches From Time To Time, And So Much Other Stuff I Couldnt Explain Till I Found This Video, But Everyone I Talk Too About This Just Say, 'Think Positive' Or 'Pretend No Ones There' And My Answer Every Time Someone Says That Is 'Its Easier Said Than Done' Or 'Ok Then' And Then I Just Walk Away. The Only Reason They Say These Things Is Because Im Okay On The Outside
I May Try And Be Funny, Fake Smile, Laugh. But When Im Alone I Just Randomly Become Sad, And Usually, It Stays Like That For The Rest Of The Day, And There Was This Website I Loved Going On And I Went On It Almost Everyday But Now It Feels Like A Chore To Just Enter The URL. Sometimes I Just wish I Screamed At Myself Wish I Had Told Myself, I Wish I Could Just Go Back In Time And Change Everything.
Okay, that is me. I can relate so much to some of these signs. I guess I really am depressed after all.
Do you want to talk to me about it? It's ok if you don't.

I am going to send this to family. If I ever had that episode happen again, they can let me know it’s getting worse. But I also want them to know that it’s not there fault
Damn. I wish I could build up confidence to do that.
I don’t like telling them or bringing it up to them. Depression almost got me to xxxx. Idk if they even remember my depression. Then again. Maybe they do. I just sent it to my sister with no comment since she enjoys this stuff. That’s all.
Me whos depressed and knows: Interesting video, very interesting. 😆
Thank you for this
I cried while watching this, most of the symptoms that said on this video is what I actually feel for a couple of months and until now...and it affects my performance in school, my relationship with my family/friends, and I can't even do the things I usually loved, and day by day I feel like these feelings are getting worst.
I kind of see myself as some of the signs in this video, I have also had thoughts of death and suicide at various times, regretting it a few minutes later about even thinking about it, my parents are going through a divorce, and we don't have much money, literally, all our fridge has almost every day is eggs, milk, tortillas, and some other little stuff. I used to snack a lot before but we can't even afford snacks most of these days, they say I finish all the food even though I've been trying to eat as less as I can, sometimes I don't eat for a whole day or two, and I'm just tired of this. Even just writing this comment really makes me want to cry, still, considering all of this, I don't believe I'm depressed since I have 2 friends who have been with me since I was in 2nd grade and supporting me a ton.

I want to tell my parents about this but when I told my mother she said “no your ok you don’t need to go to a therapy” and it breaks my heart
I feel you this is happening to me
such a wonderful video and helpful as such
may it help many people
fit in with almost every description
Been like this for 2 years now
this helps me alot more and thank u so much
This literally came in just when I was starting to have severe symptoms.
13 years old and I already feel I'm dealing with so much
I’m super obsessed with my crush, which is a bad thing for the most part, but she gets me up in the morning. I feel like that’s all that matters.
It’s the way I’m going through this and have to act like everything is perfectly fine to my parents or it’s all a punishment and shame I should feel abt myself if I tell them the truth. I just wish they cared about my mental health as much as they do about physical. Instead of them punishing me. I just don’t feel any emotional safeness with them so will never truly open up to them about my emotions.
If your reading this you are special you are a masterpiece I am proud of you 😊😊😊😊
I love this voice number one ❤❤❤👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I recently got diagnosed with PTSD and PMDD so at least I can associate my depression with something out of my control, but the medicine has yet to help me feel better. I don't want to feel like a burden. I don't want to get pain in my hands when I put myself down or apologize for existing
Thank you Psych2go thank you so much
my mood changes very easily, it annoys me when people get angry or judge me without understanding what im going through.. i slept through class and didnt complete my assignment on time because i cant bring myself to it... its gotten so bad i struggle to do daily things and focus and my facil got angry that i didnt hand up the assignment on time and sort of scolded me i got really really angry because he doesnt even know anything.. i keep getting nightmares of being chased or stuck in a place without exit i dont get good sleep i sleep in class not because i choose to..
i was talking to a friend about feeling like im sinking a few days ago and now im seeing this video say something about feeling like youre sinking.
Just going through the same ....
@@abhisrisaha9720😢😭
the thing is, all mental health services ave waitlists upwards of 18 months and cost far too much
It's the mood swings that get me
I don't know how to tell my parents that I think I have social anxiety and might need therapy, so I'm currently sending my dad these videos with a note how many signs I had from each video... I hope we'll be able to actually *talk* about it, without getting interrupted or him changing the topic to make a joke real quick... I have sent him these kinda videos before, but nothing really came of it. That was a year ago. Anyway, thanks to everyone working with the Psych2go channel for making these videos!
Just go and say "i have been feeling off and i could really benefit from talking to a professional, can we maybe give it a shot?" The message is just so foward it is easy to just answer yes. Also your father might see these videos and think that they're just out of self pitty? I'm not sure so do not take this seriously
