I remember being told by my parents to just âthink about myself more positivelyâ so the âjust snap out of itâ section really hit hard. Depression is like a train coming right at you, full throttle, while youâre tied to the tracks. You canât just âstop being depressedâ on command. Iâm sick of people thinking that itâs a choice that someone makes. If I had the choice, Iâd rather not have depression.

OH MY GOSH! I was almost in tears when you said that people with depression feel guilty of not having a good reason for being depressed. I feel depressed all the time and I keep telling myself that I need to stop feeling this way, I have no right, I don't have a good reason for being depressed. This opened my eyes. Thank you đ¤đđ

I could remember several years ago, I suffered severe depression and mental disorder after losing my job. Started my journey on alcohol and cigarettes. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until my wife 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.

My mom told me that same thing, that "I shouldn't be depressed because there are people who have it worse than me". I tried my best to describe how I feel and time and time again she tried to invalidate my feelings...it's awful, like I'm stuck and can't leave this pit. And the people who were supposed to love me and give me the strength to live, failed to do so

As Stephen Fry once put it - "depression doesn't have to be "because" of something. Depression just is, like the weather. Some days the sun shines, other days it rains. You can't tell the weather to buck up or snap out of it."
And as someone who has been diagnosed with chronic (ie life long) depression for over30 years now, I can tell anyone going through the rough end of the experience right now that the sun will rise again. It always does. And you will be there alongside me to celebrate, I hope.
Fighting your way back from the deepest, darkest places is no picnic. I know. I've been there many times and I have no doubt I'll be visiting again at some point. So, if you reject everything else anyone says on the subject, let me assure you all, you are genuine, real life heroes. You wouldn't be here if you weren't. My hat is off, ladies and gentlemen, and my fingertips are resting on my right temple. Carry on being the heroic warriors you are. Show the rest of us how it's done. My utmost respect and humble salute to all of you.

"Others have it worse" is one I heard a lot. What made it worse is that I had a front row seat to see the validation of that statement while watching my own sibling spiral on almost a daily basis, so I went decades believing there was nothing wrong with me because I was never as bad as my sibling. Meanwhile, I was manifesting my own version of depression left untreated because I didn't think it was there. Then one day, it got really bad. I couldn't physically move from my bed except to go to the bathroom a couple of times which was a miracle I could manage that. But all day, I laid in bed and drowned in my own thoughts. The next day I was feeling better enough to pull myself out of bed and make me something to eat. I settled on a bowl of plain instant rice, which wasn't very substantial when you hadn't eaten in 36 hours, but it was better than nothing. That was when I started to think, "Okay...maybe there is something wrong with me. That was a classic sign of depression yesterday." But I didn't know who I could talk to or how to start that conversation so I did the only thing my muddled, clouded brain could think of at the moment: I made a Facebook post about it and hoped the right person would come to me. I said something to the affect of, "I was depressed yesterday but I'm feeling better today," which wasn't a lie. I was feeling betTER, just not my best. The very first comment was someone reprimanding me for using the word "depressed" to describe what they called a "fleeting sadness" because "there are people out there who have actual depression." Then the comment after that was someone agreeing with the first comment. The third comment after that was my cousin reprimanding them for focusing on the language I used and not on my feelings but by then the damage was already done. I had gone right back into my thinking of, "There's nothing wrong with me." Then what followed was another five years of letting it fester and get worse before I finally revisited it and got the support system I needed to help me through it. I still struggle, but it's a lot easier to deal with now that I've gotten medication, proper coping skills that I learned in therapy, and a great support system of people that I can talk to openly and honestly about how I'm feeling, including my wonderful and supportive partner.

At 12 i had depression because of my sick mother, i was a top student but started failing drastically because i feared losing her plus we spent so much for her treatment. People kept asking me "why do you look tired", "why do you have lazy eyes", "why are you not interested", "are you sick", "why don't you talk ", "you look lazy", "why do you eat too much", "why don't you get out of your room", "why do you listen to sad and depressing music", "why are you scared" I was tired of such questions because no one could understand one's self struggle and problems. One time i had a "friend" who was like "why can't you be normal like the rest of us, you act so abnormally and you should stop it" like it's not my fault i do things the way i do, it's just me. This hurt and now I'm just trying to heal mentally.
