Turns out my ex-girlfriend, (The only one I still talk to), might be pregnant, which fucking sucks because she keeps saying she wants to kiss me again and I can't stop thinking about her. I really hope to god she isn't, neither her nor her boyfriend are mature enough to care for a kid. How fucking hard is it to use a goddamn condom? Fuck, I really wish something good would happen, this depression shit is really getting old.
[QUOTE=NeoDement;28498619]you look fine but really bad fashion sense [editline]8th March 2011[/editline] surely cutting yourself is an even worse way of dealing with it[/QUOTE] not really. im a cutter and it does help me without the need of doing it again. it doesnt have such an addictive effect on your body as i will asume drugs have. but it does give you bad scars and everybody will think you are emo.
The trick is not to cut in places people will see, such as the shoulders, thighs.
trick is not to cut at all.
[QUOTE=ScoutKing;28502697]trick is not to cut at all.[/QUOTE] excatly. teach me this trick.
[QUOTE=jani_killer;28502719]excatly. teach me this trick.[/QUOTE] self control.. ta-da. Seriously, if you don't have the mental composition to function without inflicting harm to yourself, then you need serious therapy, and heavy medications. There is no go post on facepunch about it. Its go to a doctor now if you are in that position. if you don't want to go get help for it, then simply just stop.
Alright so, I have no trouble going around and talking to people on my own time but whenever I tell myself I need to find a job related to talking to customers and etc. I freak out and blackout thinking I will end up screwing something up. How would I go on to approach beating this?
[QUOTE=NeoDement;28501865]The trick is not to cut in places people will see, such as the shoulders, thighs.[/QUOTE] Tried it. Yeah, people will see. People still do see. The scars won't go away and it's embarrassing.
To whoever reads this: I have no argument or way to stop you over the Internet, nor do I apparently care as I'm talking to everybody to reads this post and not specifically you, right? But please don't hurt yourself because you're down. If you do, those scars will follow you everywhere and you won't be able to look at yourself in the mirror as it'll remind you of this time.
Talked to my mother and arranged a doctors appointment:) Each week I grow more and more suspicious that I am in fact bipolar as I crash terribly each or almost each night.
I think most people who are depressed or have a depression feel worse at night.
[QUOTE=sp00ks;28511791]I think most people who are depressed or have a depression feel worse at night.[/QUOTE] yea especially when you can't sleep because then you get to think too much. and it's often only you so there is nobody to talk to.
Callout: You're [B]all [/B]exceptionally great people doing selfless things for others, making them feel better and be happier. Thank you all for existing.
nvm i missread. you're quite the awesome fella yourself spetzaz, you seem like the guy i want to be my friend forever. BTW la deg til på steam
Ditto man, lets talk tomorrow. Right now I've got to go fix my sleeping cycle. :buddy:
yea i feel and early night today too, been too little sleep all week.
i had a breakdown.. 5 minutes ago.. my mom is frustrating me.. i dont really know what to do.. i was about to take my jacket and walk to my dads place..
[QUOTE=Freze;28512461]i had a breakdown.. 5 minutes ago.. my mom is frustrating me.. i dont really know what to do.. i was about to take my jacket and walk to my dads place..[/QUOTE] hey man i'm here for you, so tell me whats bothering you and i'll try to help you. what is your mom doing that frustrates you so?
[QUOTE=sp00ks;28511791]I think most people who are depressed or have a depression feel worse at night.[/QUOTE] My sleep patterns mostly have me up at night, alone in the dark. Very depressing.

But please don't hurt yourself because you're down. If you do, those scars will follow you everywhere and you won't be able to look at yourself in the mirror as it'll remind you of this time.[/QUOTE] That's really true. It's an uncomfortable reminder every time I shower or even get dressed in the morning. The memories associated with why I did that come up everyday and sometimes I'm just not prepared to deal with it.
[QUOTE=Freze;28512461]i had a breakdown.. 5 minutes ago.. my mom is frustrating me.. i dont really know what to do.. i was about to take my jacket and walk to my dads place..[/QUOTE] We would definitely highly appreciate if you could tell us a few more details about your breakdown when you are able. I can virtually always be contacted through these methods: Steam: [URL]http://steamcommunity.com/id/genkaz92[/URL] Skype: Genkaz Email: [EMAIL="Genkaz92@gmail.com"]Genkaz92@gmail.com[/EMAIL] anyone else is always more then welcome to discuss anything depression related, or mental disorder related with me. I would also be happy to simply talk about various topics. I took my first pill of Adderall today, so far the effects have been extremely positive and are working dead center as I am interested. For experimentation purposes, I attempted a game of tf2, and immediately noticed that I was endlessly calmer, more focused, and generally more immersed and self aware of the game. Normally I would often have short rage bursts, and be generally in a very spiky mindset. That time it did not even remotely come to it, and I actually chuckled at a few funny moments. Another more conventional example would ofcourse be the fact that I started working on school without having to go through a mental struggle to actually start and stay concentrated on it, it feels endlessly lighter and easier. I finally feel like I could pay attention to something for the exact amount of time that I would want to as opposed to my brain putting up a block every time I attempted even remotely submerging myself into anything. I will definitely post updates.
so, i was in Health Science Tech today, and i was reading about blood pressure. Apparently depression and hypotension (low blood pressure) apparently have a possible relationship. Kind of interesting. interesting, if you're like me who like to look at the medical/physical aspect of what can cause depression. interesting read.

Speaking of breakthroughs, the university of Kansas has been doing one on fish pills. I can wholeheartedly say this actually helps, my dad put me on it. Take 2 fish pills a day (they're cheap and coated in sugar so they taste good) and go for a 30 minute walk, even better if you walk somewhere like to work everyday. It is said to work better than anti depressant drugs! If you don't want meds, give that a try instead.
I doubt the fish pills actually help in comparison to the exercise.

Obvious placebo.
[QUOTE=ScoutKing;28532837]placebo[/QUOTE] Well, saying that ruins the effect. Although, it's probably really only effective when used alongside exercise anyways.
-snip- Sorry I'm such a whiny fucking cunt.
I feel like such shit right now and not being able to recognize and identify what i'm feeling is only contributing. Is guilt a common symptom of depression?
[QUOTE=Monty Pie-thon;28534197]I feel like such shit right now and not being able to recognize and identify what i'm feeling is only contributing. Is guilt a common symptom of depression?[/QUOTE] I think so. It sure is for me, anyway. It's usually the reason I'm depressed. You might be different though, so I don't know if you'd be able to relate.
