While many are not listening, some are listening, thankfully. More need to listen if they hope to assist in healing. Pretending to listen is harmful. Either truly and honestly listen or go on your way, honestly admitting you won't be truly listening. There is often major healing in just allowing people to tell their stories in a setting where they feel heard, truly heard, understood. Love to All! ![]() WC

I believe you are right on re: trauma and abuse.
I believe my brain -- and my life -- would be different if I had the proper intervention at the time of the trauma and abuse. Instead, there was no intervention, which was par for the course back then. (I am in my 50's.) We know better now! ![]() Let's encourage more research. Maybe share our stories. I want to have more hope for today's children... or are they also falling between the cracks? ![]() I think some of us, if not all of us, need to be courageous and tell our stories in order to incite more attention ( and funding) toward issues of mental health (outside of the pharmaceutical companies)? I could go on and on, but won't. Not in this moment anyway. Do we have the courage to show and tell, shedding light upon what needs more/better attention? ![]() WC

In the US, mentally unstable children are getting lost in the system, especially if parents are unable to advocate for them.

And many times traumatizing parental practices have been passed down from one generation to the next or the parents need mental illness treatment and are not getting it. I have a libertarian POV but when it comes to health care--I am becoming a socialist! People cannot reach their potential if they are not mentally and physically well.

i have started talking with my friends about marriage....I have a lot of problems with my marriage...and I have been married 63 years...we still live in the same house but I am frequently very frustrated and angry....so I have been looking at the 7 deadly habits and the 7 caring habits that are recommended for married people...I am finding that this is very hard to do...it takes me time and work to not get so angry about my wife..i bring it up here because my marriage causes me a lot of stress and causes me grief and depression and fear...
the 7 deadly habits are not recommended... Last edited by little turtle; Feb 07, 2018 at 11:20 AM. |

major depression....I was diagnosed that way....
but a long time ago depression was in 2 categories-------- endogenous depression or reactive depression... that makes more sense to me....I thought I was endogenous.... but it is not that simple...I wish i knew more about the causes... |

depression is awful no matter what causes it....awful
I hope more help is on the way...I hope the world is very stressful now and things are changing so fast.. I tend to blame myself...and shame myself..i have taken on what I saw when I was a child and some of my relatives were made fun of for being mentally ill..

![]() Marriage, like any long-term relationship, is work. I'll have to review the 7 caring habits. I am not having any major problems in my marriage (20+ yrs.); yet, I don't want to develop any problems, either! Thanks for mentioning this. ![]() ![]() WC

I take lamotrigine DT 100mg twice a day, buspar 10mg and amisulphride 50mg at night. I would be calling my pdoc tomorrow to check if he can prescribe me an anti-depressant. The sinking feeling in depression is quite terrible. |
