Depression? Anxiety? Help me out, guys.?
ByI’m a naturally happy guy, a true optimist. I wake up and see that it’s a beautiful morning and that makes me smile; I see that it’s a rainy morning and I love the beautiful sounds, or a gray and cloudy day and I love the colors. I’ve never woken up unhappy…until now.
I had been staying up late but waking early for a job, so I was getting <7 hours of sleep a night, but I didn’t see it as a problem. After a couple weeks of this, however, I started feeling sad or upset, drained of energy, I couldn’t fall asleep when I wanted too, but when I slept for really long amounts of time when I did, and not regularly either, reduced sex drive, and later a sense of hopelessness. These are major symptoms of a depression disorder. They would come in waves between 3-5 hours long, generally, but I found I could fight them off by hanging out with friends of something, or at least push them to the back of my head.
Every couple of days I’d say, "I’m done with this" and I’d feel better, but then they’d start up again. A bit after that, my symptoms changed. Instead of periods of intense unhappiness, I just get general unhappiness for longer, but not nearly as bad. In addition, I would occasionally by irritable or my heart would start beating really quickly.
I had another period of happiness, four days, and now my heart’s beating has become more pronounced. It’s noticeably stronger - I can sometimes see it beating by vibration in my stomach if I really look - and at times will quicken. In addition, I’m still not completely happy, but doing better.
So lemme ask you all…What’s wrong with me?
Also, my grandfather suffers from anxiety and my aunt depression, if that helps.
It is kind of difficult just to say you are depressed because you don’t mention any reason for that. It could be a physical problem. Have you been checked up by you physician recently? Sometimes the symptoms you mention is related to a physical condition not a mental condition.
Try and get a complete check up including the thyroid gland because some of the symptoms could be from a problem with that.
Wish you luck!

Do these bouts of anxiety and depression appear to stem from being around anybody in particular?? Do you feel suddenly anxiious and blue when you start your shift at work or go visit your aunt or grandfather?? It is entirely possible that you are absorbing somebody else’s pain and stress…. and carrying it around as though it’s your own without realising from whence it’s come ….. (an empath)….try something for me ……. next time you get low and stressed either notice whose company you are in and remove yourself or say to yourself that "this isn’t my pain and stress … i don’t own it"….. or both….. this would explain why you feel better when you hang out with people who you have fun with … hang out with your mates more often …. key to happiness ~ work out the things you don’t like doing and DON’T do them… then work out the things that rock your socks off and you do like doing and do them A LOT.
bless u

I know how it is. I’ve been in this situation so many times where I just felt lost and had no idea where I was going in life. It made me depressed and my quality of life was just at an all time low. I’m 36 years old and have been struggling with these issues for over a decade. I just don’t know what is wrong but I’ve been able to adapt and get everything back from when I was younger, I’m talking 17-18 when I felt I was in my prime with my sex life. I started having problems after a break up with a girlfriend that I thought was the one but she basically tore my heart out. I was about 24 years old and when I started dating other women, my sex life was doomed. I’ve had it all from erection problems to all kinds of performance problems. Some were in my head. Anyways, since then I’ve tried all kinds of things. You know about viagra I’m sure…Who doesn’t know about that stuff haha.
At that point in my life, I tried it but couldn’t get it all the time due to the doctors and my age. I knew a buddy who would steal the stuff from his dad for me. I just noticed that it’s terrible stuff. I try to avoid pharmeceuticals as it is. I noticed I would get terrible migraines and an occasional blurred vision which truly was scary…Sure the erection was great but the side effects blew… In the meantime years passed and I found the love of my life again. The sex was good, the erections were great. No problems at all. No more viagra was needed for quite some time…Then all of a sudden, well you can geuss. Sex life down the toilet again.
I was in my 30’s by this time and just was stuck again. I suffer from depression so all this time I’m thinking I’m going through another low libido spell cause of it. Now I go to the doctors cause I feel ok talking about my problem. I’ve been on the cialis crap and some other one I can’t remember nor do I want to look it up lol. Anyways it’s all the same crappy side effects that just make everything terrible.
I did some research and after a while everything started to make sense. I hated pharmaceuticals and a friend told me about the herbal way to get an erection and all these good articles about it. He said chinese men have been using these herbs for centuries to cure there problems in the sack. I figured what the hell…might as well give it a shot if it’s not going to give me any side effects. I tried a couple of these out. To my amazement, both of them did what I needed so I kinda just have fun with each one. I’ll explain why. I just needed something to get up. This one I found called vigrx plus was the one for this. It’s all herbal and after a couple days of taking..you take it daily, I noticed right away my junk just wanted to stand straight up, sex drive was something that was crazy..you really can’t handle yourself ..lol jk but you are like a teenager again… Check this stuff out at hughs-reviews.com because I saved money on it at the time there along with this other supplement I got there too…Check for coupons and updates. This one I just wanted to see if it worked cause it was suppose to increase your semen quality and amount. So right there I’m thinking damnn that must give you one hell of an orgasm. This was semenax, and I fiddle with it every once in a while when I want to load my wife up. She’s always impressed with the amount and she even says it tastes better!! yippy if you know what I mean. Overall, I’m so glad I took the herbal route of keeping my sex life up to par.
Struggling with it for long really messes with you so I know and feel ya when people talk about it. Good luck and I hope this helps you.

time you all took note
what is vitally important is to choose your healing route- for this problem —– carefully from good information—that means knowing druggs/meds treatment for this can/will be damaging to your mind and body .drugs only mask the symptoms they do not cure.
This info well –it will save —years of suffering = if you apply it ..
All treatment recommended by the doctors should be tested and approved and quite rightly so.
That makes sense
It costs millions of pounds to test and approve just one treatment.
Drug companies pay for most testing and will only and I mean only look at treatments, which show the promise of good deal of a profit, –they will actively dismiss any therapy which does not have profit potential— thus your doctor will only recommend therapies that have been tested with profit potential in them.
Despite The fact that some of these other therapies mentioned below do have overwhelming benefits some, which have saved massive amounts of suffering
Drugs are not the answer for any mental illness– at best they mask symptoms
This is a fundamental principle grasp this fully –
Have you heard your local doctor recommend, Massage Spiritual healing, reiki Light therapy, Colour therapy, the violet ray therapy, Osteopathy, Electrical Frequency devices. Karma therapy and u wont because no one can put a patent on these powerful therapies .
For much more info/ detail and research behind this protocol
Go here http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/theholistichealingofdepressiongroup/
Upon joining this group you will be sent a file giving the info –or go to the files section within the group and u will see it there
Print this all off save it and enact it and share it — of course someone to help you get these therapies in your life is invaluable but do not be swayed by anyone trying for short cuts …
.
1,get someone to massage your back and legs at least 3 times a week use peanut oil or a mix of 50-50 olive and peanut oil.
2 use the violet ray machine an Edgar Cayce device google search this — 3 times a week on the other days especially on the spine….we use it every day with very positive results
3.get a tent sleep out side 3times a week utilising earth energy - nature can help big time especially with how you feel how much energy you have
4 study and apply good nutrition— adele davis books =protein minerals =iron essential fatty acids omega 3 6 9 protein etc
5 ensure your thyroid is working well get it checked
6 ensure you do at least I hr per day some kind of voluntary work when you are able..the reasons you are ill , or poor or have allsorts of bad things happen to you is because of karma —–usually from past lives but some from this one –voluntary work will offset your mistakes— how much it offsets well that is down to god and how much you do. Healing us is in direct proportion to the help we give others ie your healing comes with helping others achieve theirs so if people are doing very little in helping others —they suffer more and longer…and if they are doing a lot they get well faster….so now you know what to do ,,and like a lot of us are already doing being of service.
7 be amongst people who are giving, friendly who have time for you who love you , choose your friends well . choose your company well.
8 be or get to a place which personally love or like
9 get and do some work which you like or love
10 ensure you do no acts which hurt or inflict on anyone –don’t want to add to your karma do we !!!
11 spiritual healing and reiki find good therapists who offer this service in your area many spiritualist churches which are all around offer this for free as part of their vocational offerings to the divine.
12 focus your mind - think good positive thoughts, laughter, look at comedy, play good uplifting music,
13 avoid at all costs exposure to violence, murders, suffering ,death ,tragedies, -feed upon good things uplifting things, things that feel like a breath of fresh air..
14 Positive affirmation- that’s right programme your self in the mirror , thoughts are things words are things actions are things , all have influence, few people realise these things can have an effect on themselves .
15 a detox —— toxins can influence how you feel big time
16 hugs get plenty of them in your daily life you would be amazed at how people feel after a few decent hugs. find a big tree and hug that.
.
17 loads of exercise running walking climbing but something which you enjoy
18 rid yourselves of all aspartame laden foods and drink and many additives ==ensure water intake
A total cure however is tied up with karma so you can imagine just how important is the voluntary work. The more u do the better u will feel .

Voluntary work is a very good idea especially when u consider this principle
,.all our healing yours and mine is linked right alongside our efforts and contribution to others.in direct proportion to the help we give others
ie your healing comes with helping others =so if people are doing very little in helping others —they suffer more and longer…and if they are doing a lot they get well faster…
.so now you know what to do ,,and like a lot of us are already doing being of service.
Do not even dream of healing to come to you if you are doing wrongful acts , wrongful words , wrongful thoughts.
1 hour a day will make a difference to you and to others
