Depression comes in all sizes and shapes. Glad you found Neuro Talk. This is where I come when I am depressed. You will make a few friends here too.
Each person is so different emotionally. Breaking out of a depression may take your doctor, maybe even some council. It couldn't hurt to talk to someone. Also right here is a good place to vent when you are blue. Don't hesitate to talk to anyone here on NT. Lots of good people, who experience the same kind of feelings. Sometimes it is brought on by illness or injury, some are just prone to depression. For me, something weird happened that put a new spin on my life. Threw depression of years right out the window.
Small story, I have told to a few.... I was bummed out, mad, depressed and went for a walk on the beach. The whole time I was chattering to God, " what am I suppose to feel"" What should I feel and how do I get better"" What do I do when I feel like this" I picked up a shell that was cup down. Not found in these parts. On the inside of the shell was written in a silver marker one single word, the word was "Joy" For what ever reason, years of anger and depression flew right out the window. Don't know how long it will last, but this worked for me.
I hope you find a spot where you know peace, and can feel joy again in your life. I am here to talk to anytime. ginnie
