What makes you depressed?

Welcome to mylot. I get depressed especially if I have big problems. But I try to manage myself to solve it with the help of my loved ones, friends, and families. Have a nice day!

I get depressed when things do not go as I planned. I picture everything out in my head how something should go and when I try to execute it, most of the time it does not go how I saw it. I am still working on how to deal with the let down. I did read on another post, in another discussion, to say "bless it." I have tried this today, actually, and it really does help in a way. I have been trying to make up a back up plan when things do not go the way I planned. However, it makes it worse when the back up plan does not work.

I feel depressed when I can't pay all my bills. I also feel depressed when my health acts up. I read joke books, watch a movie that is a comedy, and put on some music and dance. Usually by the end of all that, I'm happier. If that doesn't work, then I try going for a very long walk or window shopping. Hope this helps.

What makes me Depressed?? EVERYTHING!!! How do I deal with it?? I DON't.....I just sleep all day and Cry.....& yeah I'm extremely Moody too. Thanks for asking though. :)

sometimes i feel depressed when i did something what i thought was good, but no one praised me. i also feel sad when i did something imperfectly. at that time, i would tell myself, that's no big deal, forget it. and you know, everything can fade with the course of time. in fact, i dont always get depressed now.

Many things make a person feel depressed.It may be simple things like loss of thing/s with sentimental value to us or unexpected turn of events in our lives. Other major causes are longtime and hopeless illness, financial difficulties, bad relationships and most especially loss of a loved one.

My husband and I are currently living apart, because he is in Arizona and I am in Canada. We are waiting until one of us can get some kind of immigration papers, so that we will be a landed immigrant, or a dual citizen in the other person's country. We want to be together so badly, but we are apart right now.

Currently, my whole financial situation. I'm going to be taking a bunch of classes, and my book voucher is only for $100. For just one class, I'm having to spend a little over $140! Then, my GI Bill won't come until Dec/Jan! I can't afford any other expenses, at least until I get that money from the VA. Then comes the issue of a lot of PT jobs I'm looking at, but they'er wanting a lot of extra hours (meaning no time for classes), or they want a lot of heavy lifiting, of which I can't do, due to my injury in the Middle East. Very depressing. I'm still trying to do some PT job searching...

Everything seems like it can depress me...I am a manic depressive,I have PTSD,Bipolor, and psycho effective...I have my ups at time when I'm feeling real good but the slightist change in my life or my day it all goes to He** and then I have a hard tine coming out of it...Alot of times I end up goin gto the hospital and everything...I take alot of pills that do help some but not completely...I just try to think of the good things that I do have in my life to try to keep me out of that depression...It's alot of work and most of the time I don't think I can make it through the day..And I do go to thyerapy once a week only if I can get myself to even go out side......But my kids and grandkids keeps me busy most of the time so I don't have time to sit and think of all the bad things but it still doesn't make me completely undepressed...

For me life is what give me depression. Best way to deal with it, is to enjoy life and take it easy.

work, so much things to do while so little time.

I hate being depressed and the harder I try to deny it the worse it gets. Especially when things always seem to go wrong. If it wasnt for bad luck I'd have no luck at all. Ive been told to look at the good things. Kind of hard to do. I smile and pretend since I cant afford real therapy. Life goes on, thats the way it is.

Getting too much emotional and worrying negative things are main leads for depression
