Severely depressed, lost, and needing help?!
Question: Severely depressed, lost, and needing help!?
Senior year of High School I began to experience an unfortunate feeling that would not leave my body, or my mind!. I was usually the hilarious kid, with the funniest things to say, and now couldn't even crack a true smile!. 4 years later I've just about had enough!. According to "Psychiatry", which I don't even believe in, I suffer from the following on a daily basis: Severe Depression, Anxiety, Social Anxiety, OCD, Seasonal Affective Disorder (in the Spring/Summer), and a general feeling that I live the unluckiest, shittiest life I could've ever drawn up!. I've been taking Lexapro on and off since I entered college, and whether or not it's finally wearing off, or it's just worse depression setting in, I'm finally so fed up with pharmaceuticals I don't know what to do!. Meds have ruined my life, and I'm tired of buying "natural remedies" at the vitmain store to try and counteract all the ridiculous side effects they bring!. If anyone has any answers to how to cope with these SEVERE problemsWww@Answer-Health@Com

Put a blindfold on and walk around one day with it!. Do not take it off!. I think the next day you will have something to feel happy about!. Other than that, go hang with some jerk who is drinking moonshine and clogging on the porch in the Appalachian mountains while counting how many teeth he has left on one hand!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

OOooo Severe Depression, Anxiety, Social Anxiety, OCD, Seasonal Affective Disorder
Thats a good one !
Whenever people get depressed like this, its usually because of a repressed emotion, "depression" is like your subconscious telling u to deal with your emotions, just like a pain on a cut is tell you to put a bandage on it!.
Most depressed people I've met were that way because they couldn't bring themselves to confront whatever was really ailing them inside!.
Here's a suggestion for you, buy yourself a large bottle of vodka, a keep drinking until you can be "honest" with yourself
If you don't know to to achieve that, just take some paper, and start writing and while drinking!. Hell, this is how most of the great works of literature are born anyways!.
Oh, and don't drink more than 500ml at once or you might die!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
