don’t take Zoloft, I puked everyday for a month and lost like 20 lbs!.. .try prozac or something that begins with an L… your doctor will know what its called… those did not cause any nausea for me, nor do I think many other people had side effects with them

Good for you. You just improved your chances of beating depression by a hundred by gettingn off meds. Meds just alleviate symptoms like taking tylenol after getting your leg cut off. It won’t fix your leg. Try St Johns Wort and basically eating a good diet is so much better than a bad diet which causes a lot of anxiety and depression like corn syrup, sugar, and junk carbs. Get out and exercise too. I swear half of all depression is caused by poor diet and lack of exercise. Also, try volunteering or helping other people and hanging out with friends. Being sociable and doing social things helps out a lot bc it keeps your mind off your own problems and yourself. The problem with modern psychology is that it tries to fix you and focuses so much on you it turns you into a doped up narcissist. Fish also seems to be a good mood elevator as cultures that eat a lot of fish and omega 3 for some reason seem happier.

I just turned 23 years old and have suffered from major depression for about 4-5 years. My father passed away at 16 years old and I have never really been the same. I have been diagnosed with manic depression, g.a.d, panic disorder and bi-polar type two. Most of the time I feel that I have a good head on my shoulders but do lack energy and concentration wich can really hinder ones ability to function correctly. I also have an extreme amount of anxiety. I run at least 8-10 miles a week and meditate (although maybe not enough) wich helps but doesnt suffice. I choose not to take ssri’s because they make me feel like im a robot that just drifts threw life feeling relatively the same way all the time. Again I am looking to find a natural remedy for lack of energy, concentration, and releif of anxiety. Please do not suggest any type of religion. Thank you..
Yes the depression started 2 years after my dad died. Also my anxiety isnt about stress it is the feeling that death is coming numerous times a day, and before you say we all die I know that it doesnt help.
im such an idiot ahah my father passed away when i was 16 years old.. wow did i screw that up,.
