@houstonellsworth1 I for one don’t believe in depression. Just as I don’t believe in God or any other super natural made up creatures. Depression is one of them. Because if your cat dies and you feel sad for a period of time-that’s okay. Because whoever feels good after that-is a psycho. Take life as it is. Focus on the practical things in life and you’ll be all right. That’s it.
it can be treated bull shit, takes years sometimes to get shit even close to livable, by then u have already screwed your life up… FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!
@tombaldy I agree. Thanks for being straight up about this topic. Check out our video about a young person describes her personal experience with receiving a diagnosis of bi-polar disorder nFiGVvnt7QI at reachoutfilms and reachout.com
Depression is a supernatural creature? HAHA. I applaud your candidness about not believing in God or anything supernatural. Let me be candid: you are not smart. Do you believe in Happiness? or is that the “supernatural”? Do you believe in parisites and bacteria? or is this too the supernatural. If someone had parasites in their blood or had renal failure and needed dialysis.. are the part of the supernatural? Lack of insulin is no different then the lack of dopamine in the brain. Medical issue.
well said @itsgoyanks
Silently waiting
for Him to strike again
So when the hand hits my face
I can scream again
Scream, and maybe even cry
Just so I can sleep again
Until then, I wait
Listening to the clock tick
Until it melts, with my brain
And maybe after I’ve broken some bones
My mind will be calm again.
o;;O
sometimes im very down, scared, afraid of the wordl and people and things. and sometimes im happy and outgoing and not afraid. it makes no sense. mostly im the first though. it sucks like hell
@mparker18311 good advice and im sure it works. but speakingas a person who has dealt with this issue i can tell you that exercise is the last thing you want to do. when you can barely get the energy to get out of bed it’s really hard to make yourself go jogging.lol
bullshit! all people have shifting moods!.these crooks called psychiatrists try to “transform” all socially unwanted human behavior into a “mental illness/”disorder”/etc, there’s absolutely no real science in all psychiatry, each and every “illness” is not “discovered” but voted into existence… also, drugs don’t treat anything, they just change the mood so that the so called symptoms no longer appear, but this could be applied to “treat” anything(like protesting against FGMutilation in africa)
Isn’t it interesting how people decide what the correct way to be is for eachother when obviously there is no way to really know for sure what real even is!
If you think something is a disorder then it may just be your disorder to understand everything that is. I would guess that most people act this way from fear tramas etc. But lets all not forget that is is just that an act.
Thank you Emile Kraepelin, for telling us about the different psychiatric disorder.
If I go from a period of getting many boners (erections) to not get many boners and being bummed out is that a sign of being bi-polar.
im just using the excuse that i have bipolar excuse to make up for my weird personality
@Ladiestreat thats just your harmones.
@ccdanro STFU you’re a tard. You don’t know wtf you are talking about. It’s a real thing. Psychiatrists aren’t crooks, but people who know people and the mind.
@MCDrewskiLove
YOU don’t know what you’re talking about! real things are scientifically verifiable! “mental” illnesses aren’t! in case you don’t get it yet, it’s not about the behaviors but about their status as mental illnesses… that is, there’s absolutely no evidence that the behaviors considered mental illnesses are real diseases… they’re being made up by a bunch of retards, for another bunch of retards, uneducated enough to believe such things…
@ccdanro If they arnt proven and everything, it doesn’t matter because some people like to believe somethings wrong with them so they can feel special and think they know why they are different, so it doesn’t matter if it’s real or not, those people need it to know, or to think they know.
Hmm. I feel happy some times, but mostly depressed.. Idk.
Get help? From whom when you don’t have medical insurance?
At 1.12 you say that we have periods of “normal mood inbetween”..not sure if you have BP yourself? but my experience +every other person who has it actually has “normal mood” with periods of hypomania+depression IN BETWEEN,,got that wrong..also whats with the word”disease” what disease? put my brain through a CAT scan it may be quicker than other ppl’s signs of disease?NON I’ll give you the number of my psych gladly who will challenge your “disease” personally I’m highly intelligent..lol
@ccdanro thank you my friend please see my comment above,at last someone isn’t whining about “I am bi-polar”.personally my name is Sophie I have NO disease in my brain,i do have a disease however in my spine.i was put through a full body cat scan 3x this yr,including brain activity,ws put through too whilst fairly “high” lack of sleep does it. my brain was NORMAL this guy is a jerk,puts fear in ppl’s head,tell you what tho’ if ppl around us stopped stressing us out,we’d be ok ,take care Sophie
