Original thread - Original Post by DesertMouse1

After going through a recent event where someone very close to me was feeling depressed and suicidal, thought I'd make some GA's to get a point across. If you are feeling this way, there is help, and people out there want to help. You're not alone and you are cared about. If you are not of this state of mind, realize that you could be the difference between them getting help, or comitting suicide. You will most likely never know how, who, or how many you helped, but that should make no difference. It just matters that you were there. Go and be the best you that you can be. If anyone out there needs someone, i accept all steam friend requests and will reply as soon as i see your message.
Try and keep the thread alive for a while so that more can see it. May i suggest pictures of cats? Anything really.

I've dealt with depression for over a decade, plus PTSD and some health complications which also make things even worse than what they are. But at least I had people that helped me. Friends, family, and even strangers from support groups that made things easier.
You should NEVER think you are alone, because there's always someone willing to help if you look around you. This might sound clichΓ© but it's real, there are terrible people but there are also extremely kind ones. πŸ’™

Also, if you can and you feel strong enough, please lend a hand to others in need. I've done this for years when I am confident enough that I can take on other people's problems without affecting my health to the point of getting me down.
Remember it's important to help others, but also take care of yourself.

Diagnosed depression isn't a joke (as in diagnosed by a professional and not by the patient, don't confuse it with other symptoms!). It's a serious condition and it shouldn't be taken lightly because it's not a physical illness. Just like cancer ends up with death, depression will escalate to suicide or cripple you in many ways.

Everyone feels "down" once in a while, but for some people it's a daily pattern of depression. The good news is that it is treatable.
Usually through therapy, medication, or a combination of the two. Antidepressant medication, despite some side effects, can help lift a person from the depths of depression within weeks of starting medication therapy.

If one medication doesn't work for you or the side effects are too much for you to live with, keep in mind that there are many others your doctor could give you to try.
Make sure your doctor knows about any other meds you are taking and always ask questions about your medication therapy, if needed.

Btw, DON'T get self-diagnosed, it's a terrible idea. You might be sad or during a grieving period, so always check with a doctor.
Besides, I don't know about other countries but over here antidepressants are only available if you have a medical prescription, so you will only be left with a possibly wrong diagnostic and no way to deal with it.

Just for your information, the actual OP, mentioned by Mully, is a man. Because DesertMouse1 is rarely on SG anymore, Mully just revived the thread. So the conclusion a miss.

He's fine. More than fine, I would imagine. He was married and his wife is pregnant, if I recall. :)

Those are great news!! Last time I knew from him he was uber busy but happily married, no I'm unsure if I wished him the best for the baby or I'm just learning of it, I have a terrible memory tbh. Thx Tzaar!

I don't think he ever announced the pregnancy on SG, but yes, truly amazing news to hear. Hopefully he'll take a moment to stop by and fill everyone in. I think it was Mully who told me. :)

I know how that feels. In my case it's caused by an intractable chronic back pain condition, we've tried anything possible through several years and nothing has worked out.
I don't feel alone or anything like that, I have friends, family, etc., but my mood is usually down and I have little mental energy to do things that other people do on a daily basis with no effort.
Here it's possible to get most antidepressants without prescription, but I wouldn't recommend it anyway because their side effects can make a big mess sometimes.

Thanks everyone for the GAs! :D

Thanks for always being there for me when I'm feeling down, Mully. Thanks for making me laugh and smile even when I didn't want to.
