Depression

I have never experienced any feeling of depression in any of such situations that you have cited. I am fully satisfied and contented with what I possess,achive and do?I always hold myself responsible for what ever circumstances I encounter and meet/address to those in a balanced state of mind.I happily accept the situations and events in a relaxing manner,I pass through my life.I never blame any external agent for any suffering ,I experience.

I have felt this way...often. I am very grateful for the things in my life. However i been blessed with being bipolar. I never know when i will be happy or when i will be sad. I just have to remember that the depression will pass and i will be able to see all the good in my life again.

I have felt depressed for my finances but my husband his always there for me to support and he never makes me to feel about anythig for longer time by God's grace now we dont have any problem for finances we are managing things well. I feel every person will feel depressed some or other time but the greatness is you should come out of it very soon otherwise it might effect your health and cause lot of problems, every one should have some or other person to share their thoughts.

Depression doesn't need a concrete cause. It doesn't necessarily relate at all to what's going on in one's life. Often, it's a chemical imbalance, and the best cure is medication. With or without the assistance of pychiatrist or counselors, people who suffer from clinical depression are going to be depressed if not properly medicated. I guess you can tell I have clinical depression, but three little pills a day squash it and allow me to get on with it. Everyone on my father's side of the family is eithr depressed or bipolar. My father was bipolar. My brother, sister and I are depressed. Several cousins are depressed and one is debilitated by bipolar disease. If we all take our pills, we're fine. If we don't, it's a disaster. I don't know if it matters, but life-long depression doesn't have to get in anybody's way. Almost everyone in the family has, at least, a Ph.D. We all have very responsibile careers, and we enjoy great circles of friends. My brother is the president ofa university. My sister is a congressperson. I'm a teacher because that's what I love, even though I'm qualified for many other areas. I'm not saying that you've done it, because I don't think that was your intention at all, but many people think depressed people are just spoiled brats who never think anything's good enough!

Yes,sometimes I feel depressed because of many reasons.Maybe it is because I fail in an exam,maybe it is because I lost something important,maybe it is because I finish something not perfectly.But I can modulate my mood quickly.In a word,I think we can't feel happy all the time and we should learn to face the problems in our lives and try to overcome them then you will feel less depressed.

Depression - never comes to my life. Though i am not so well paid or in a happy financial situation but i feel very happy with what i have and what i am. When i was in school i read a short story about happiness. The story is like - a powerful king is very ill but the physician can't able to find any reason for his illness. One of the physician's say that if the king wear a shirt of a happy man he will be recover soon. So the people of the king try to trace out a happy man. But the task is not so easy. They work hard and hard but not able to find out a single happy man. At last they were able to find out a happy man. But what happen- the happy man has no shirt to wear. So i want to happy man like the short store without depression.

This is an interesting topic. Depression for most people is about how bad that person feels about themselves. So, most depression is about self. I believe your on to something when you say "just plain ungratefull for all your blessings". Gratitude will change your emotions, which will change your mind set to joy and happiness. I believe you should believe in yourself and be thankful for what you are achieving in life and what you already have accomplished. Replay those thoughts over and over and over again - to get yourself "out of the ditch".

i think you are just not contented...just find contenment in what you have.just be happy

I think we do have moments of feeling depression in our life, for no reason. Like not long before, I had the exact feeling of what I can do and what ability I have, such kind of douts for my life. But it's common. Just when we encounter some difficulties in doing some certain things, like striving for a promotion, pursuing a cool guy...and tured down. we wonder what at all can ourselves achieve in our life. No need to visit a psychiatrist. we can heal it all by ourselves!

If you have these feelings then maybe your are depressed. Clinical depression is not something that you can easily dismiss. It won't go away on its own. You can't just fix it. If you truly feel that you might be missing something in your life and you are sad and feeling that you don't deserve what you have then these are some of the signs of clinical depression. I should know, I have been diagnosed with it. You really need to seek medical advise. Like I said it isn't going to go away and you can get help so that you feel better and can stop feeling badly.

Even if I was ever depressed I would never never see a psychiatrist. For what? Pills or shock? Thank God I am always good with life, if you are depressed go out of your mind and observe outside and you will see some beauty!

Yeah,nice to meet you here.My answer is yes,but i don't think we are suffered from depression or something else. As far as i am concerned,it is the desire from the bottom of our hearts leading us to ask more,not satisfing with our present achievements.Maybe it is our common humanity,namely,the so-called one of the seven deadly sins--insatiability.Don't worry, it can be transformed to a kind of drive force to push us up,if we confront it with right attitudes.Sometimes,this sort of feeling is not good,because under this overwhelming depressure we will be exhausted by working so hard in order to reach our future goals. Relaxing is important also. just take your time! you'll make it!

I have found myself in this situation before, but I don't think it signifies me being "ungrateful" for my blessings, nor taking action as drastic as seeing a shrink. I was simply overwhelmed and stressed out at the time. By sorting through my priorities and clearing my head, I was able to enjoy all the blessings I had in my life with true happiness and appreciation for everyone around me. But for some, depression is a deep and sometimes uncurable emotion. It saps all hope away. I don't think you should trivialize this by implying that some people are "just plain ungrateful." Depression is not a controlable emotion that the person can be blamed for. Those are just my thoughts. Thanks.

well i think that all people experiences this.. anf its just the matter of time when you will experience this

Depression hit all types of people and even the ones that are in a good place . It is a sickeness and can happen to anyone . My father has it and he does have reasons and has a hard life , and I believe it is harder to get better that way . I am a sad person . Sure , I have an okay , but sometimes wanting more is hard , and seeing ,loved ones suffer that you cant help .

Depression doesn't always mean something wrong is going on in your life. Depression can happen to anyone at any age during their life. Its often caused by a chemical change in the brain. Often medication will help a person thru this type of depression. I've suffered from depression several times before. Sometimes it was caused by my life, but not always. If anyone is feeling depressed for no reasn then I would suggest they see their family doctor. Its quite possible its a change in their brain's chemicals.
