No just searched the threads he started and focused on the ones he was asking for advice on life, surprisingly not that many

Just dont see how i can even begin to offer someone advice without at least understanding what it is they are going through.

Not likely :sick:
 
even with all of this i feel super low. i just wish all of this is over. one way or the other
 
I think this thread is having an adverse effect. Perhaps it should be closed. :erm:
 
...Just remember you might come back to face the same **** you avoided this spawn.
 
Hey Acid, you said you did the medication thing 3 times. If you don't mind me asking, how long were you on the antidepressants each time, and did you feel any different while you were on them ?

1 yr or so at a time. first set of meds made me bleh (tried them twice), the others didn't have that effect but I didn't feel much different. Doubt it had an impact at all.

There are so many different antidepressants. What works for one person might not work for another, and what works the first time may not work the next. You have to keep trying with your doctor to find something that will work for you. Normally, you should see a difference in 2-4 weeks. If you don't feel any different, that antidepressant is probably not the right one and you need to go back to your doctor.

I know that depression must be one of the loneliest feelings in the world and you must think that none of us can imagine what you are going through. I can only tell you once again that only you can get through this. No matter how much support we give you, or how much support your family and friends give you, only you can climb out of that lonely place. If you really want to feel happy again, you will find a way. You have to want to get better. IMO the first step would be to try the medication route again.

Edit
You must remember that depression is not an emotional sickness, but a real medical condition. Depression simply means that the chemicals in your brain are out of balance. You just need to find the right antidepressant to regulate those chemicals. You must also remember that it is this medical condition that makes you susceptible to all kinds of dismal thoughts.

How did you expect the anti-depressants to make you feel ? Remember, it is not happiness in a bottle. Pursuing happiness is a job you have to do yourself; pills cannot do it for you.
 
really dont know how it was supposed to make me feel to be honest. ive felt better without them

been depressed for as long as i can remember. and thats from age 4-5ish. just feels like it will never be better. that its a part of me so deeply engrained its on dna level

sometimes i wish it was because of traumatic events or bad parents or abuse. you know, something tangible i could point at and say "thats the mother ****ing reason why" and then form a plan to get over it.

ugh. hurts my brain trying to think why/what/when

maybe i should be an ******* and troll some posts. that always cheers me up

To me any challenge is easy. All it takes is determination, a plan and a desire to accomplish. Being fulfilled by that? (or volunteering at church bake sales or whatever)... nope. That "happy meter" doesn't budge.

I was following this thread from the beginning! I somehow relate myself to your posts but this is first time that I think i have something to add to your thread, hope it helps.
I'm having same problems here (but not as bold as yours) and the only times that I feel less depressed is the times i'm determined to achieve something!
Now, you say there are no challenges in your life, nothing can puzzle you or keep your mind busy, maybe it's because you did not face the real challenge! Maybe you have a better IQ, stronger capabilities, etc... and yet you are trying to fight an ordinary person's battle! Surfing, Sky diving, traveling... are bourgeois hubbies, they are not challenges, or goals! You need something REAL, you need to make change, you need to create!
Maybe you need to go on a mission (I'm not talking about the religious nonsense)! Go work for red cross, Doctors Without Borders... I dont know... do some voluntary work in some war zone... in a third world country...! Do something with REAL risk and REAL outcome and achievement.
