OK. I have given a lot of thought to the idea of experience, life & what depression means in the very recent past. I have decided ultimately that I can't handle simply submitting to the depression, because while I like the viewpoint I know it holds me down - but also I can't do the drug route. I just can't, it doesn't work, it makes me uncomfortable and ultimately more anxious & depressed.
And you know, really, I can't do the therapy route, either, because you have no idea how uncomfortable that makes me, as well. I cannot and could not ever in any situation since I was born successfully express my true self verbally & I'm not suddenly going to sprout an ability to eloquently describe my emotions. Not to mention I have an embarrassing inclination to cry and it all just snowballs into this slightly traumatizing experience that I don't like. I really don't like.
Therefore, I was wondering what alternative solutions there are for depression without just masking it with medication?
