once I had a therapist and I asked do I have depression? She said no you aren't depression which was no help
@depressed_ghost so common in anything medicine. Theyre better at saying whats not wrong than what is
A really common component of depression is blaming yourself or feeling like you are "attention seeking" or just lazy/weak etc. I honestly wouldn't listen to anyone other than a doctor or therapist when it comes to your mental health! I have battled depression most of my life, but I finally found treatment that really helps (combo of medication and therapy) along with simple things like sleep, regular exercise, nutrition etc. If you are feeling sad every day, I would absolutely reach out to a doctor or therapist who can help you. Good luck, I promise you it does get better and there is effective treatment out there, just got to find what works for you ❤️
Hey best advice would be talk to ya doctor about how your feeling etc
@chezza what about a counsellor?
@depressed_ghost yes possibly a counsellor could be helpful
