Anonyblog

You sound extremely depressed and you should see your doctor/counseller.

Your view of life isn't abnormal but something has triggered 7 years ago and you may already know what it is or have blocked it out.

I see in your post that you have a relatively comfy life, but take Robbie Williams as an example, you can have all the money and fame in the world and still be depressed (even he is on anti-depressants you know).

Don't worry that other people have it worse than you. (I hate when people try to dismiss your personal problems.) Your problems are your own and you are trying to deal with them by our own means.

Even try St Johns Wort as it is a non addictive pill for depression if you don't fancy anti-depressants.

I think you need counselling to help you see things in a diffrent perspective, or try to talk to family and friends, get them to point out your good points for a boost.

Good luck and post back if/when you tried something.

I think C is right on the mark lady. Zoloft might work but I,ve heard that ST John,s wort is great take care mark

Yeah, come to anonyblog for all of your health care needs. We provide nothing but the finest expert advice and now you can take advantage of our new perscription program.
After, you end up in the hospital with a severe allergic reaction. Then you can sue the anonymous expert who fucked you up.
Once again the experts are on the case with their expert advise. Who do you people think you are? You should not practice medicine on this website. Sure this person may need help but not from you. What a bunch of dumbasses.

Hey Blank...just because you're a grouch doesn't mean you can take it out on everyone else. If you're talking from experience...well, you should have checked for allergic reactions yourself. A little common sense goes a long way.
And before you start yelling at me for being so calm and the peacemaker...I'm not sane. I haven't been for since my father died. He went out for a walk one morning and dropped dead in the street. No warning. After that the depression I had been battling, successfully wihtout pills or patronising counsellors, swamped me anew. I lost my job, my friends couldn't handle my grief and they all buggered off, my landlords turned into bastards, the man I loved abused my trust in him and followed it up with marrying another woman a week after my dad died. I wasn't allowed to grieve properly because I had been trained since a child to never show how bad it really is. I've become a fabulous life actress where noone knows whats really going on in my head or my heart - like how lonely I feel, how cold I am inside, how empty everything is. My mother doesn't listen to me, my acquaintances can't handle that level of emotion, my job is shit (would get another one but sadly there aren't any in my area), I'm skint and the only reason I'm not dead yet is because Death hasn't come to call. I don't seek it, I'm just waiting for it.
No, antidepressants don't work for me. I don't do drugs or alcohol or cut myself - I'm far too practical *snarl* after all, it'll only be a quick fix. I'm not hugely overweight but of course, thats the first thing everyone looks at, because I'm not superslim. They think I eat too much...I don't. My weight is both genetic and hormonal - I can't get rid of it if I try, and I've tried.
Men hurt me and leave me. I'm unlikely to ever have children so I'm training myself to not want them anyway. The past 18 months have taught me that I have only myself...to rely on, to help, to blame, to love, to hate. There is no one else.
This is how I feel all the time, Blank...filled with despair and misery and hatred and rage yet I manage not to take it out on anyone else. Just myself.
So spare us the angry ranting, bud, coz the rest of us have enough going on without you being an anonymous insulting twonk with issues that you can't handle.
As for Anon, who posted first...you can beat it. You can win. If I can still be here, can still live and breathe despite the insanity in my head...then you've got every chance of finding what you need to beat back the darkness. And I wish you every luck with it.

Just because you have had a long bout with depression does not make you an expert or expert enough to perscribe therapies to resolve anothers obvious condition. I think you need some help. Maybe a good prime rib and clit licking would do you some good.
Blank

Get over yourself, Blank. The poster asked for advice; advice was given. It has been suggested that she see a doctor, and you can't get Zoloft any other way. No one is claiming to be an expert; no one is practicing medicine. We're just responding to a cry for help, the same way that we would if a friend in the real world cried on our shoulders.

I know that you will respond with yet another of your hateful rants. Go ahead. We all recognize you for what you are: an uncaring twat. We don't care what you think any more than you care what we think. You didn't ask for any advice, but I'll give you some anyway: Get some insecticide and kill whatever bug it is us that has crawled up your ass.

Blank,
You obviously have problems with your reading as well as with the inability to keep your anger and ignorance in check. Not at any point did I say I was an expert in anything, other than my own misery. I didn't suggest any treatments, therapies or anything else - on the contrary, I pointed out that they didn't work for me. I merely wished Anon luck in getting through their pain.
As for a prime rib...only if it's yours...preferably sliced, diced, fried in almond oil and shoved back down your own throat. Or, if you are female, go hump a wooden stake. Any splinters you get will surely be a poignant match for the arrogance housed in your personality.

Yeah...I can be angry too. It's not nice to be insulted, is it. But then, what is it they say? What goes around, comes around? Or quid pro quo? Either way, have a snipe at someone and sooner or later they will snipe back. You've sniped. I've sniped. Now let's leave this to what it's here for...someone to get some hope from other people offering support.

I still think a nice slice of prime steak and a good clitoral manipulation would do you some good. Women need some head every now and then.

Who is Robbie Williams?

LOL Really? Well, how's that for good old Deep South stereotypical behaviour.

that conversation has to be one of the most retarded things i have ever read.

I haven't read all the feedback. I am going on the question asked.
Well, yes, you can go see your doctor-but ask about the side effects of anti-depressants (as it seems to be the first answer to everything-yet thety don't tell you thet your body could be damaged for life and thus experience further depression), best still, ask for counselling-personally, I don't think prescribed pills work and counselling offers an opertunioty to explore your feelings.
If that does nothing-cos let's face it, the person psycho-anyilising you has only done training and not experienced it-OR THEY WOULD HAVE AN ANSWER AND WE WOULD ALL FEEL GREAT!
So, I suggest looking for alternative combats.
I am struggling myself-the unfortuanate bit is that I did go down the path of TOO much medication and to top depression, I have a frazzeled body. To put it another way, if I could go backin time, I certainly would NOT have tried anti-depressants or therapy. In fact, I believe that sunshine-if you can get it, positive influences around you (people), and if you really are in a shitcake mood that you can neithe get out of bed or want to live, then look into reasons why.
Is it your life, your partner, are you in pain, are you ill and don't realize????
If the answer is no, then, I guess ou have clinical depression. I would certainly explain it to a doctor, but not take his advice if it didn't feel right.
Everyone goes on about 'support groups'-well I've yet to find one that is actually genuine.
Yes, here are people better off and that just makes your dep[ression worse-so don't give it a thought.
Be selfish.
As much as it may pain you and feel bad, take a bath and add some essential oils-I know it is hard, but onse you are in the bath, you have to get out, dry and dress-. If your depression is not so bad that you have difficulty doing these things then do something more adventurous.
Due to pain, I can't (BECAUSE OF ANTI_DEPRESSANTS_I MIGHT ADDD). I thinkthe more you can force yourself to do, the motivated you wil get and the more perpose to your life you will see.
That is my opinion.
There are also natural remedies which your health shop eill tell you about.
Most importantantly though is that you don't feel that this is YOU.
There are hundreds af depressed people who feel they can't go on.
If you feel so worthless, then what do all those others feel like?
Can you hel[p them???
Can you accept them?
Can you accept this iss an illness of intense proprity as would be a broken neck?
I don't provide answers sorry, as I am copingwith depression myself.
Just think about what you CAN do, rather than what you can't.

I have now read some of the posts, and they are not very helpful.
Okay. I doubt if mine did much, but I was offended at some of the replies to the required email and I didn't post it.
This is not really supportive is it??
Everyone can be angry.
If I was as depressed as the person who rceived such an obnoxious reply. I would be devastated.
Do the people on this board wanr help and supoort or do the want to slag each ther off.....and I wonder why there is no world peace.
SHAME ON YOU

Now it's no longer early morning-where by I get up to find NOTHING, am SAD, look on the internet for help-I see that my depression is BAD. The posts-though the meaning true-the spelling is terrible. I hope they were understood.
I have tried anti-depressants (probably all) and have been left with terrible long term side effects (I was angry for a long time about it and about people still relying on them or even advertising them) We are individuals and some react better to them than others-though I still think it is a big manufacturing con in which depressed people 'die' from (whatever form)
As for the comments-no, they were not too helpful to one who is depressed and I wouldn't respond personally as it is neither helpful or productive (in fact suicidal to a depressed person).
My depression has lasted so long and I have developed pain from taking medication for it (not knowingly-such a long time ago), that I now have to spend my time dealing with chronic pain AND depression.
This isn't funny and I sometimes wish I could start my life over.
Failing this, there is not much more to do than actually sit and mope or mentally try and get in your head and do something.
I was bedridden for months and had NO-ONE. So apart from beig down, I was ill, my psychiatric record requiered no help in the way of pain, I could not get help. I was left to die-My dream.
I didn't and spent very many painful months in agony and still surviving.
It reaches the point beyond absurd when you realize that NO-ONE cares.
So-depressed or nopt, unless yopu have other help, I'm afaid it is survival.
You either die mentally or physically.
That is not very helpful-but it is the experience I have been through.
If your health is otherwise 'okay', I would try very hard to try things like walking in the sunshine. swimming, any exercise. BELIEVE ME . I am now unable to do so much because of ANTI-DEPRESSANTS.
wORK YOURSELF OUT.
iF i COULD LIVE OVER, i WOULD ASK FOR physiotherapy and not anything else.
One, you get to the appointment, and two, you have to exercise.
Ask for some kind of exercise routine and not be the guineapig of drugs.
And if youer depression is not so severe, then I think the answer lies within.

As for my 'blog', that is just what is going on in my head right now-perhaps obnoxious has had a bad experience and needs to be angry. Still-direct anger is not appropriate to those seeking help-you will go either one of two ways-answer him back and get frustrated with his further replies, or help (assuming it's a he-as I was offended with the first sentence and didn't pay much attention) Fuerther more, if the site is intended for help with depression, why were his posts allowed?
Probably to show how low people get.
I have been there and still do and yes, I do get angry when people start 'prescribing'.
It is individualistic and unfortuanatly, there is no way of explaining these 'GOOD DRUGS to people, if the high they have off them is overcoming depression.
No-one looks into the long term affects of not only withdrawel but of movement disorders-hence dystonia-LOOK THAT UP
Advantage-you feel great for a while- disadvantage-you can get all sorts of brain disorders, not nesesarily sraight away, you can die, you can become a shcizophrenic and much much more-the only people getting anything out of this are the ones who sell the bloody stuff and I could sue eli lily right now, I would if it would solve depression-but it won't-a campaign instead to sort the guy out and drain him would be more profound.
