I think i have depression what can i do?!
Question: I think i have depression what can i do!?
I think I'm depressed and I'm not sure how to handle it this time!. I had it a few years back and was really quite ill!. I went on tablets but they made me fat so I stopped them!. In the last year I've had 5 jobs varying wildly in career from childcare to retail manager, office work to home carer and have left them all with days of starting!. I don't even realise I've left half the time!. I just make a wild decision out of nowhere then find myself back at home staring into space!. My family and partner are finding it hard to work out and so am I !
I don't seem capable of working anywhere!. I used to have a good job in recruitment until depression got me 3 years ago and i've never stuck at anything for long since!. I can't even cry!. I just sit looking at nothing then stuff my face with biscuits which isn't helping by the way!. I can't see a dr!. they only give out more tablets that make me fat plus i get awful dreams and blurry vision!. anyone else got depression!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

See your GP!. I know you dont want to, but they really are the best people to see!. they wont give you medication unless you want it!.!.!.in fact they dont like prescribing tablets,so dont worry about that!.
they would know about other "treatments" like counselling, mental health services in your area, specialists, herbal remedies!.!.!.!.that really is the best thing that you can do!.
aside, anti-depressants dont make you fat, but if you dont want to take them then thats totally fine!.
hope this helps-dont be afraid of getting treatment from a professional!. this is pretty common-gps see on average at least one person with depression every surgery, and they know exactly what to do!.
good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I feel sorry for you and your family but you must go see your doc!. Not only can they try you on different tabs (which may help) they can refer you to a community phsycologist who can help you get to the bottom of your problems see why it's happening (it's not near as bad as it sounds) I think it's more likely it was the extra eating that made you put on weight and not the actual tablets!. Some tablets make you feel more hungry!.

I take Wellbutrin XL (300 mg) for my depression!. It is a great help, I have no side effects other than a few weird dreams and restless nights in the beginning!.!.!.and the best side effect of all: WEIGHT LOSS!. It will either lose you some weight or not!.!.!.but it will not gain you any!. No one I have heard of has gained on it!. It also will not make you tired or out of it!. I feel great!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I read a book called calming energy which is very good!. It expalins how food can control your moods and depression!. Depression can be caused by what food we eat and our attitude to it!. I would have a look at your diet and research online how it effects us!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
what you should do is go seek a therapist/psychologist instead of psychiatrist cuz they give you medication while therapist help you resolve your problems!.!. it wud help you especially if they used CBT:)Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've had depression on and off!. Depression is seeing the future as not bright!. It is a lack of HOPE in your life!.!. thinking that everything is Hopeless!. If you can, give your all to the present moment!.!. ie!. Now!.!. focus on enjoying whatever it is that you are doing!.!. right in this very moment!.!. because it is a PRESENT!. The past is gone, you can't do anything about it!. The future is not yet!.!. Living this moment and giving your all to it!.!. suddenly, you will find your vision enhanced!! Your sense of smell enhanced!! Go out and look at some flowers!. Your depression will go!. Meanwhile, I will say a prayer for you that the spirit of Depression which is also Oppression will leave you!. I speak Hope over you!. I speak Life over you!. I speak Joy over you!. I pray that your breakthrough will come for you now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

hey am in the same truck and (football!.!.) is right, i have depression too went to the doctor all they can do is give u tablets, when i started having tablets it made me a bit relax but so lazy and sleeping much more then ever before, so my doc told me to come after i finished these tablets but!.!.!.!.since i didn't find it helpful, i didn't even bother to go, soo the best thing you can do is ( as i did) if you are drinking alcohol you must give up, also if you smoke you must quite it, because these are the things which cools u down since u have depression, as a result it makes u more relax and leazy which u don't feel to do anything, as (football!.!.) mentioned above, u need to go gym, and do some activities, am really sure it will helps, since i had the same experience!Www@Answer-Health@Com
