Wow I never heard anything like this before
So original. If you looked on google no article will ever mention these things never said no one ever

[myTake Owner]

Haha, yeah, one can find similar advice elsewhere. I simply wrote about what I'd personally seen help the people around me, and what's helped me over the years too.

What about if it's your work making like this.

[TripleAce]

If work is actually contributing to depression, its possibly considered a trigger. Triggers have to be managed.

The options are
1. see if you can get a sick leave from work
2. change jobs if possible
3. Try better managing the stress/problems whatever is causing the depression from the job, if possible

[myTake Owner]

Your job causing depression?
That's definitely possible and something I dealt with before.
Sometimes, there are things you can do to make things better but other times, it really does take LEAVING the job to be happy. That's what I did, and it helped me tremendously.

Over come depression by lifting it :) put all of the sorrow frustration and self hate to the gym that is what I do saaaan depression is for the weak also trying marry jane and some beer will help in my opinion

[Opinion Owner]

Depressed and alone? Do what ever the heck you wanna do that's how you over come depression too

[myTake Owner]

I disagree, I don't think depression = weakness.
Life isn't always easy to deal with and saying someone is weak because they have trouble coping with difficult or situations or traumatic events is a bit presumptuous, no?

@Annoynmous

Clinical depression is not all about JUST feeling sad. ITs goes much much deeper then that. Going to the gym to release certain chemicals is helpful but not even close to the solving the underlying problem. Mary Jane can help but its really not for everyone. IT can actually trigger situations that are not good for depressed people.

[Opinion Owner]

Everyone has there own way to over come it in my viewpoint it just takes will power to get rid of it

[Opinion Owner]

And do any of you have depression? Because you guys seem to have no knowledge on this subject

[myTake Owner]

Yes, of course. I've dealt with depressed family and friends all my life, and have suffered from depression myself. That's where this Take came from, I wrote about what has helped the people around me and what has helped me.
That's why I say depression is weakness, too many people think that which is why so many depressed people are ashamed and don't seek help when they really need it.

[myTake Owner]

depression is NOT weakness*

[kep79]

I suggest antidepressants.

[Anonymous]

[myTake Owner]
