What do you do when you feel depressed and frustrated for no reason.

I think you just need me time. Time to unwind and put things in order in your life. I find if i dont get me time Im more frustrated and short tempered. I have two kids, my daughter has adhd and I have worried she has a form of autisism, high functioning. She is not an easy child. MY son is a typical boy and they just always have you on your toes. My husband is in the military and gone alot. Its hard. Life is hard. We have to have time to unwind. If you have a hobby you enjoy spend a couple hours on that one day and try to give yourself certain times in a week to do those. Maybe some one can watch your son and you can go out with friends for a few hours and just forget the day. Take a bath and have quiet time. No stimulation. Its hard but you can do it. Your feelings are very understandable.

As a carer myself, I know what you mean - the slow, almost unnoticeable buildup of stress and anxiety over time eventually turns into a desire to roll over, pull the duvet above my head and stay in bed all day. You're not alone: there's bound to be a support group near you (well, there's usually something, if not an actual group). Talking helps, so my lady tells me - she's a psychologist, so I guess she knows. Personally, I find that a bit of "me" time makes a huge difference. A walk on the beach, a film with a bowl of ice cream... whatever it is, just some time to myself with no responsibilities is great. Check to see if there's some kind of carer support network near you - it could make a big difference!

Thats too hard I know, well not really that I can't relate much. Well, autism maybe really hard, but that is something that really need care and love. If god has given you such big sack of obstacle its just a matter of test and you can always carry it. For you, don't over think much. Learn to live with your problems. You don't have to pull yourself just to get rid of it, you have to sway with it until you learn the solution along the way. If you are depress, simply call God! Or uhmm. think of stuffs that can make you happy, or way better think of your problems and see it as something positive. Like the autism, see it that you are given a special child, SPECIAL. The bills, you have that kind your bills and it only equates to your earnings coz in economics your bill symbolizes your income. If you have bigger bills, you are rich! :) Just like that!

I just take a long and really deep breath. I have to calm myself down from whatever is causing me this great depression. Although one would argue that I have never really suffered true depression. Just a depression like state, that has left me frustrated. Perhaps a number of things have just compiled and really agitated me beyond all belief. If I really suffered depression, then I would be really worried and would seek help. For those depression like states, first I try and figure out what is causing me the issue in the first place. There is no use dealing with depression when I am unable to figure out what is causing the great deal of frustration the first place. Therefore, I just really take a step back, take a deep breath, and really do figure out what is going wrong and what is going on. Only then can I really deal with whatever problems that I may have.

good thing you are a member of mylot. at least you can talk to somebody and share some of your problems. in that way, it makes it a little bit stress-free because some of the members can advice you. or simply by just writing it, it kinda release what you are feeling. if you feel down, just take a few minutes sitting alone and let your mind free from thinking. take a deep breath and release all the stress. do inhale-exhale in a few times. and then, talk to the Lord. ask Him to give you more strenght and patience and courage to face all your worries and problems. in that way, you can feel that you are not alone. that God is with you in times you needed someone to talk to. just keep on praying and everything will be fine. keep your faith!

Whenever i feel frustrated or depressed, i do the breathing exercise, inhale and exhale. Then i try to relax. After that i say my short prayers then think of happy thoughts. It helps. Try it, it might help you.

I can't say I understand you but may be a little related to your feeling. There are a couple of relatives who deal with autistic childs, by now "apparently" they've got the hang of it with of course, help of people surrounding them, schools, in a word good guidance. But never the less, depression is what might be considered an illness which not necessarily means you have to be sad, hidding from people, crying all the time, I've learned that it has different ways of developing and looks that your situation is what causes it. Start reading, researching while you have the benefit of being online, there's a lot of information out there that might or might not fit you, so basically whatever helps you, stick with it. Personally, I used to work out in good and bad times, and that, for me was a big push under any circumstance that made me feel low. Hope you have a great day and remember, it's a situation, eventually you'll be able to handle it. Blessings.

Take a walk, talk to a friend, pet an animal, listen to music, do something that you love...
