Hi everyone,
I always feel really tired, bored and unexcited about everything. I'm not interested in much and I have a lack enthusiasm. I see other people laughing with their friends and I always feel in a shell. How do you cope? Thanks ![]() |

As for coping. I think everyone finds their own way of getting through. Finding a forum like this is helpful. It makes you realize that you are not alone in your depression. It is a day to day struggle, but talking to others helps. Do you have a therapist? If not, you might want to consider this option. There are medications that can help you get through the worst of it while you and a therapist work on the underlying causes of your depression. I can't speak for everyone, but some of the ways I cope are through biofeedback and meditation. It doesn't take the depression away, but it does help with the anxiety that goes along with it. If you are able to, walking helps as well. Not necesarly on the street, where there are distractions, but in the woods and parks where you have the quiet you need to think. Remember that any thoughts you may be having concerning low self esteem, disinterest in life etc. are all artificial. They are symptoms of your depression and though they feel real, they are not who you really are. Sam2 |

Thank you so much for your post. It has really given me a great deal of insight.
(((hugs))) Sometimes I can't focus on whatever people are talking about as much as I try and I seem to be caught up in my own thoughts. Thank again. x ![]() |
