Depression

Are we feeling recharged and energized today? Yes and No. The most common answer thats in definitive. Yes you want to go out and do something active, but you tell yourself that you need another hours rest or a nap. You talk yourself out of doing anything active and yet you just sit around and be lazy. Sound Familiar?

Today I am just writing some various thoughts come to my head and we will be jumping around all over the place. This should make this post somewhat exciting over the rest. ^_^

As described in my first paragraph, I have suffered through this stage many times and have come to the conclusion for the answer. Depression. Well What is Depression? Basically a chemical imbalance in your body and/or brain. Depression can be very destructive for your well being and also people around you. Not only does it affect you, but also people that care about you.

There are times when you might think the world and everyone in it is against you. You become irritated, judgmental, mean, angry, more tired than usual and have no energy. Depression is overpowering at times and can seem your in a hole that you can't get out of. Don't fear, there is help!

There are many ways that you can seek help and assistance with combating depression. The first, which has always been my life saver, is friends and family. They give you support and direction plus also the love that you so desperately need in a time like these. The second is a Therapist. I've only experienced a small portion with one, but what I've experienced has been alright. As weird as this may come across, sometimes putting things out before a stranger can take a load off your back.
The third is Medications. Personally I've traveled this path with high expectations and not good results. If this is the path you seek then I HIGHLY recommend talking with you doctor and asking LOTS of questions. The drugs can be wonderful and make the world seem right, but inside your body and mind, they are reeking havoc. On so many of the med's that are out there for depression I keep finding a common denominator for them, or a side effect if you will. "Taking this Perscription may cause more depression or you to have strong thoughts of suicide." I'm sorry if that is a side effect, i'd rather deal with this on my own with out drugs to amplify those thoughts!

So in conclusion on this blog today. This was mostly for depression, which I've recently just came out of and hope to not get back into.

If you have any thoughts/suggestions or questions. Please do not hesitate to ask for help from wherever you can find it.
