I Struggle With Depression. 10 Things I Wish People Knew About It

I Struggle With Depression. 10 Things I Wish People Knew About It

It is hard to describe what feeling depressed is like. It varies so much for different people. For me, there are days I feel like I have a heavy weight on me and I cannot move. The simple act of getting up is overwhelming, as is anything else I might try to do. Other days it is just a pervasive sadness. I might put on a happy face for the sake of those around me, but inside, I feel a physical weight of sadness.
I did not want to admit that I might be dealing with depression for a long time. There is such a stigma surrounding being depressed. I didn’t want people to think I was broken or that something was wrong with me. Even once I was willing to take on the fact I was depressed, it took time to find the right combination of medications so that I finally began feeling some semblance of normalcy and stopped dreading getting through each day.

TEN THINGS I WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT DEPRESSION

There are many things I would like to tell you about being depressed, but that could take a whole book. Here are the top ten things I want you to understand about my personal experience with being depressed.

1. YOUR PROBLEMS WILL NOT CAUSE ME TO BE DEPRESSED

Many people feel like they should not share their problems with a friend who suffers from being depressed. This is absolutely not the case! Being depressed is not caused by feeling sad about something going on, and your willingness to include me and confide in me will actually be a pick-me-up. I want to be a loving and caring friend, too!

2. DEPRESSION IS VERY COMPLEX

There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to who suffers from depression or how to treat it. It does not care if you are rich or poor, black, white, or purple. It can affect anyone. Adding to the complexity is that there is no one cure-all for it. Every person is different and needs different combinations of therapy and medicines to deal with it.

3. I NEED YOU

Even on days where I act like I do not want anyone near me, or where I do not even want to get out of bed, I need you. A text, phone call, or even a meal can mean the world to me, even if I cannot properly express that it does. So please, never feel like I don’t need you, because I do.

4. NO ONE IS AN EXPERT

Even if you have been around people who are depressed, you are not an expert. How it manifests is vastly different from person to person, so how your Aunt Milly reacted and what worked for her may not be how I react or what works for me. I know you are well-meaning, but understand that even doctors don’t fully understand what causes people to suffer from being depressed yet.

5. THERE ARE NO MAGICAL FIXES

Being depressed cannot magically be cured by getting outside more and going for a run. While these activities may help, there is no magical fix that suddenly will cause a person to overcome depression. It is important that I be in touch with myself and sometimes force myself to do activities I do not feel like doing to keep myself physically and mentally healthy, but this will not fix everything.

6. DEPRESSION IS AN ILLNESS

You know the compassion and empathy you give your friends who suffer from cancer, lupus, or fibromyalgia? I need the same empathy and compassion. While you may not see my illness manifest physically, it is there every day and I have to treat it every day.

7. I CAN APPEAR HAPPY

Being depressed does not mean I walk around sad all the time. It does not mean I have a cloud of darkness always surrounding me. I can laugh, joke, and have fun while still being depressed. I also can be grateful for my life and my circumstances despite being depressed.

8. THERE IS NO PERMANENT CURE

While I might overcome depression for a day, or a week, or a month, it comes in waves at times. There is a natural ebb and flow with being depressed. I can take medicines and get help to reduce those ebbs and flows, but there is not a permanent cure yet.

9. IT ISN’T JUST IN MY HEAD

Just like you could never fully explain the pain of childbirth to someone who has never had the experience, you cannot fully explain being depressed to someone who has not experienced it for themselves. There are no words that would fully bring you into what I am experiencing. Nonetheless, my experience is real and not just in my head.

10. DO NOT WALK ON EGGSHELLS AROUND ME

Laugh with me, cry with me, share your secrets and your sorrows. I want to be a part of your life, and I cannot do that if you are always walking on eggshells around me.

CONCLUSION

I hope this gives you a glimpse into what depression is and isn’t, and how you can better interact with those who are struggling with being depressed.

Therapists Reveal 10 Behaviors of Unhappy Couples

Therapists Reveal 10 Behaviors of  Unhappy Couples Relationships are hard work. At first, things may seem easy when you’re in the cupcake phase. Love, romance, and a genuine connection seem to flow like water in the beginning, but over time, these things may dwindle to the occasional show of affection. Unhappy couples result from not being mindful of the effort it takes to maintain affection for the long haul. The easy solution to an unhappy or toxic relationship is to leave it, but many people don’t. This situation is because deep down, they either want to save the relationship or they don’t want to be alone. In many cases, a human’s innate need for companionship is what keeps them in a bad partnership. Whether you’re reading this to figure out if someone in your  life is in an unhealthy relationship  or if you’re reading this for yourself, these ten therapist-curated signs can help you identify unhappy couples. 10 RED FLAGS OF UNHAPPY COUPLES, ACCORDING TO THERAPISTS 1....

Which Should You Do First, Cardio or Weights? Here's What Fitness Trainers Say

Which Should You Do First, Cardio or Weights? Here's What Fitness Trainers Say My workouts have basically been the same since I started going to the gym in high school: I do  cardio for about 30 minutes , then I  hit the weight room  for 30 minutes. In college, that was bumped up to an hour of cardio followed by an hour of lifting (which was not very healthy, and I do not recommend it!), but my timing was always the same: cardio first, strength training after. Ever since  I started going to Orangetheory Fitness  a couple of years ago, I've kept the format the same: I always do the treadmill portion first, which is about 30 minutes, then I'll do the weights (another 30 minutes). My thinking goes that I'll get the most taxing (and sometimes boring) portion of the workout, cardio, out of the way so I can focus on lifting. Plus, the cardio gets my heart rate up to crush the weight room. Turns out I've been working out all wrong for the past 15-plu...

Zee AJ Official -The Surprising Benefits of Fasting

Fasting has been practiced for thousands of years.  The great Eastern religions—Islam, Judaism, Buddhism and Hinduism– have long maintained that fasting is beneficial for the body and the soul. However, its bodily benefits have not been recognized in the west until the early 1900s when doctors started recommending it for the treatment of various illnesses, such as obesity and diabetes.  New research now provides new support to this age-old healing practice. 1. Weight Loss Fasting, if done properly, can actually aid in weight loss.  Research indicates that intermittent fasting, which includes everything from eating 500 calories or less two days each week to skipping breakfast or lunch on certain days of the week, allows the body to burn fat more effectively than regular fasting.  This is because intermittent fasting allows the body to use fat as its main source of energy rather than sugar. 2. Protection against degenerative diseases Research...
