Suffering chronic depression. Are there answers?!


Question: I spent my life taking care of others. My words so often help others as they gobble them up and go on their way, only to return when they need more guidance. Now I find myself disgusted with every human being. I am disbelieving of the selfishness of seemingly every person, the lack of giving, the perpetual taking. The coldness and childishness.

I am not a bad person. I am a persistent giver, but giving does not work for me anymore. I am highly educated. But I can take no more of people. And American society becomes crueler by the day.

Having often spoken to counselors, it comes clear that I have been chronically depressed for 23 years. I am Christian, and I love my Christianity, but still I am very unhappy and permanently depressed. The depression over the years time and time again ruins my home life.

Seeking kindness anywhere. Find cruelty and selfishness everywhere. After 23 years, what could be expected? I will not need coldness, I doubt anyone can help me, but still I try.

The standards set by Christian religion are admittedly, even proudly, idealistic. Your expectations of yourself and other people are not based in reality. Practice "Acceptance".
People are just people, everywhere. Americans are good people - - with a lot of pressures and problems due to wealth and technology. They were not put here to change just for you, so stop demanding it.
Depression is bottled up anger. It makes you impossible to relax with. So people are driven away eventually.
Analysis is coldness. You are tired of being cold.
The love you seek is never to be found while you apply the "Accounting" principles of giving and taking to the souls you deal with, including your own.
Ask yourself: "What is to be more feared than the aloneness that you long for?".
Take my words, and know that you are not so different from those who have taken yours.

Welcome to America...The land where Hundreds upon hundreds risk their lives everyday to get in on the 'Freedom' that we all enjoy...I'd almost laugh to see them enjoy our 'freedom' of shitty, unefficient and life-dangering prescription anti-depressants...If you feel like taking your own life for a whirll, you could take our prescriptions, and watch your life wash away between your fingers..

Have you found Heroin yet? It's worked wonders for me..would you like to see my track marks? they're quite impressive.. I've shaped them around the American Flag..

Sounds like your having some sort of anxiety or hormone imbalance, I would seek a doctor for medication

well i am really trying to understand what you are writing and it sounds that you just need someone to talk to. then go and enjoy a day at a spa, and pray, because GOD does not want you to be depressed he wants to take that from you and heal you from it.
but, if you ever need someone to talk to please let me know and we will talk my address is carriendewayne@yahoo.com

You really need to get yourself to a mental health counselor. I also suffer from major depression and the therapy and medication really does work.
