I have been depressed for a long time, but after taking shrooms few months ago, l feel much happier and highly motivated and my ADHD gone , lost a ton of anxiousness and had a few epiphanies about how I should live my life. I decided to buy an ounce for backup, but haven’t yet felt the need to take any more since then.

I suffered severe depression several years ago. I could remember several years ago after divorce with my wife which brought me into my disastrous journey on Alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd.
Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.

Depression has effected my memory the most. Its gotten to the point where I can barely remember anything about my childhood or the names and faces of people I've known for most of my life. My memory spans a week at most before things get extremely hazy. Can't even remember the feeling of being happy. I'm not saying that I'm never happy, I probably am sometimes, it's just that I'm not able to recognize emotions I'm feeling. Funny thing is, I can't even remember why i was ever depressed or angry I'm just stuck with these feelings without ever knowing why. I could set something down, blink, and forget where it is. It's still where I left it, it's just that it was immediately erased and it's like the item became completely invisible despite it being right in front of my face. This just sucks to live with daily and I'm only 18. ADHD sure as hell doesn't help either.
Didn't even realize it was this long.

I didn't know how serious depression is until I felt it, you can't describe it to others about how you feel. Depression makes me sad all the time, can't focus on anything , talking with someone and also thinking of something at the same time makes me socially less active, always losing the arguments. So , it's really sad to be depressed but happy to see these guys talking seriously about depression..

Thank-you for taking depression seriously. My whole family would just say get over it, stop being so emotional, it got to a point where I could not get out of bed, yet I was doing everything that was recommended. I am starting to see the light.
Wow, so many kind people! Thanks so much guys. Everything is good 7 months later hah! I’ve been hitting the gym, taking life a bit slower, accepting myself the way I am and learning to love myself. Deleting social media is partly part of the reason I can accept myself and definitely getting some fresh air daily, even if I’m busy I always make it a priority, otherwise I will be sad. I even missed a party due to needing some time out! Exercise and prayer/breathing helped me out. Hope you’re all okay ppl!

I’ve had severe depression for nearly 9 years. I was a straight A student. I’m in College now and it’s been harder to focus, to put concepts together, and sometimes it take me a long time to even count. I don’t remember much of my life, I loose memories quicker, and I can’t remember what I’ve studied for long. It feels like my brain is deteriorating. I don’t even know how to approach the university for help.

from my experience i can say that depression makes me wanna neglect things, especially logical thinking. because more i do so, more i remember past and more i feel horrible. i think this is kind of self defense mechanism to avoid feeling even worse. and more you ignore present and past memories, maybe your brain starts to degrade because it is not used and it gets dusty like all machines do.

Depression as an illness, has a great deal of aspects but for someone never to have been there, just imagine an individual totally losing interest in life, losing interest in anything & everything they used to enjoy. Nothing inspires them, excites them or motivates them anymore. They just want to shut off from the world & in many cases 'just sleep'
Some have thoughts of rather not being alive because life is giving them nothing, some very unfortunately go further & try means of ending their life. Some tragically succeed.
Then theres the many cognitive issues of such a person & in my case dibilitating mind chatter...something at it's extreme, I wouldn't wish on anyone.
I'm fortunate to know & understand things will subside & improve, i'll get my zest for life back in time. I just need to hang in there & make little steps that I know will help.
For me (& many others), it's prolonged periods of 'chronic stress' that brings on bouts of depression.
Stress were the individual feels overwhelmed & helpless or feels severely let down by unjustices in society. Were people don't seem to care anymore about whats right & wrong, or atleast enough.
Real depression is nothing like being fed up for a dew days, it's a totally different animal & experience...it's an illness just like any other illness that comes on & is awful to cruel & tragic for sufferers.
Because it's not physical, in that it can't be seen, makes it much harder to associate & sympathise with. This could be the main reason why it's been a tabboo subject for many many years & so, not well understood by most.
All the very best to all.

If depression can cause memory loss, could I assume it could also cause loss of intelligence? I ask because I don’t feel as if I know how to properly diagnose an engine anymore. It seems as I fumble through and then second guess myself. I know I’m getting older so I can’t bend and twist like I once could, but removing parts feels more difficult that it was just a few years.

Depression, among some other mental disorders, is a double whammy. Not only are depressed people suffering and in immense pain that robs them of life and even basic functioning (let alone, joy), people who don't have clinical depression say things like, "You're just too sensitive, lazy, spoiled, ungrateful, etc." And they compare situational depressions (such as loss of a loved one, which has a REASON and a time frame) to clinical depression and think that time will fix it or that "you should be over it by now." Worst of all is when people say, "What do you have to be depressed about?" That's just it. It's not about a reason. It's a chemical imbalance. When the brain is the very organ that needs to function to let you help yourself is not functioning properly, it is nearly impossible to do the things to "help yourself." When people tell me to go for a run when I am so depressed I can barely get out of bed, I equate that to telling someone with a broken leg to go for a run to help their broken bone heal. It's so easy for those who don't have depression to stigmatize, judge and blame people who do, which makes depressed people not reach out to their loved ones for help, which makes them feel lonely, hopeless, and on and on. It's a vicious cycle and a cruel illness. And the "advice" people give to depressed individual is often akin to adding insult to injury. I hope all depressed people who are reading this are hanging in there and not beating themselves up for something that is not their fault.

There’s an interesting hypothesis according to which antidepressants move the brain into a state of increased neuroplasticity. So then when having CBT treatment you create new neural paths easier - patterns of hope, positive self talk and acceptance. This means you can also deepen the depression by strengthening the negative neural paths. This helps to explain why some people don’t benefit from antidepressants (as in drug resistant depression) and why the combined treatment of meds+therapy works. This made a lot of sense to me and since learning this I carefully choose how I talk to myself and which patterns I choose to engage in. What and how you think actually translates directly to your brain’s structure and chemistry. So don’t underestimate the power of words.

This explains a lot if loss of focus in school, memory loss, and so much more in my case. I always thought I wasn't smart enough or didn't have the ability to focus, but rather, I noticed I'd have these problems the most during my time of depression and severe stress. Thank you for sharing this.

Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

When you tell people you have depression the most common thing they say is "everyone gets sad from time to time". It's so hard to explain that depression has nothing to do with sadness or happiness, it's a completely different state of mind, where even minor inconveniences in life are seen as the greatest obstacles. Sadness, grief, pain, happiness, all these are normal feelings of life. Depression robs you of the ability to react normally in almost every aspect of life. Just like any other disease.
