No, I'm not judging anyone who is clinically depressed. I'm not calling them lazy asses or anything like that. I was diagnosed with clinical depression myself and you know what that let me do? It gave me permission to act depressed. I thought that I was allowed to be like that because I had a certificate that stated "YOU ARE DEPRESSED." When I met the man I talked about he told me that I was a pathetic individual. I was shocked needless to say but he only did it in my best interest and hey, it worked. It shocked me into thinking that maybe it was me who was perpetuating my depression and u know what? he was right. It took SOOOOOO much effort but I eventually dragged my sorry arse of my bed and went for a run. I changed the way I stood, walked and spoke and that is what made the difference. Unfortunately I suffer from a different menal illness these days (one that exercise doesn't fix, but helps) so life has been hard lately but you've always gotta put in effort. If your depressed and not even trying to get better then thats no good. So before you slam my advice, I have been there. I've tried to kill myself (what an idiot I was) and I've made a comeback from it, and it was all through the way I stood. Now whenever I feel myself getting depressed I put on the crapest music (ohh u should hear it) and attempt to stand on my head for up to 30 seconds. By the end of it I'm more concerned with my sore head that feeling down. Don't bag it until you try it.
