They only way to make it feel better is to talk to your Family Dr. and get some help. We think we do it ourselves, and we sometimes make it worse or think we feel better but are just storing it for a rainy day! Good luck
Thinking too much...
does it happen to you constantly? coz sometimes us, women, feel very low and depressed before or after our period.
is there something in your life that you want to do(achieve)
Hello!
I am bi-polar, and I come from a long line of women who are bi-polar. Even though there are times when we can reason out why we are depressed, like we just moved, or had a fight with someone we love, or went through a life changing time in our lives, there are many times when we are depressed and we don't know why. This is because our moods change based on our brain chemistry. It is great that you are monitoring youself, and your moods. A couple sure signs that you are in a depression that needs medical attention are that the people around you started noticing it, you are thinking about death, and that it lasts for over 2 weeks. Doctors do take this stuff seriously, and you should too. Depressions are very normal, but when they get as deep as yours has become, sometimes we need help to get out of them, and get back into our normal lives. It's not your fault, nothing made it happen, it's brain chemistry, and you may be on a medication for a while to help your chemistry get back to normal. :)
It's good that you realize that you have a problem -- that really is the first step to recovery. Now it's time for you to reach out to someone for help, like your husband, your family, or even a medical professional. You need to realize that depression is an illness that often requires medical intervention -- it's not just a passing "mood" that you can get over. You may need to rethink your self-imposed ban on traditional medications, or you might look into alternative treatments like accupuncture, massage therapy, pet therapy, etc. Good luck, and I hope you get the help you need soon.
i went/am going through this, you might need to talk to someone...in the meantime try to keep busy, I have to make myself walk/run/exercize otherwise I draw the curtains and watch tv and get depressed....good luck
