I'm starting to feel hopeless, depressed and all.. I easily get angry. I wasnt like this before. I was sooo optimistic before..... But.. times have changed I guess..

So.. how do you guys cope with depression? When you feel stressed and know there's still a lot to do as if there's very little time left, what do you do? When you start to feel hopeless, how do you counter it? How do you stay sane? My niece says I shouldn't take life seriously.. I think she means I need to stay positive. But just how....?

I've been on citalopram for 3 weeks. I know that's not long enough to really tell if it's working or not yet, but are there any early signs at all? Like increased energy levels or whatever?

I'd love some help. I need some hope

My boyfriend is a very defensive person and tends to feel like I am criticizing him when I am not. I realized that it is probably a defense mechanism because he is insecure about himself. He has a deformity on his body that no one knows about and I know he is ashamed of. I think it has affected his sense of self-worth and esteem internally. I would like to help build his self-esteem so that he feels he is a good, valuable person even if he has the deformity. What is the best way to go about doing this?

He is also going to get a surgery in the next few weeks to correct the deformity, though it won't correct it 100%. I am not sure how to handle the emotional/mental changes that will occur in him and our relationship after his surgery, nor do I know what to expect. Any advice for that as well?

He's 55 and has always lived with my parents. Hardly ever worked. Has ocd, and a really bad attitude. My mother died in 94 and my dad had a complete breakdown a yr later. My brother had my dad sign everything over to him, house cd's bank accounts ect. There was a will i saw in 84 that everything would be split equally. He took advantage of dads illnes and dad died in 2005. Brother was a mamas boy and she also had mental problems. He has no friends, sees things only in black and white, if you don't agree with him, your wrong. He hates everyone and is so tight with his (Dad's) money. Still wears clothes he had for over 20 yrs with holes in them. I haven't spoken to him in a yr and don't want to. he's afraid of germs and washes clothes in pinesol. Just thinking of him makes me sick. So what do you think of big brother? The song, Mother by Pink Floyd comes to mind for me.

i have been on wellbutrin xl for 4 weeks now i still feel very depressed, if not more so. i have quit talking all together at home in fear that i will break down in front of my brother or mom. it hard to get out of bed, i just go thru the motions at work not even realizing whats going on, and come home and sleep. i dont see my MD til 10-5-07, do you think i should give it time and see if the meds are just taking time to work or give him a call to see if there is something that can be done now???

I have a mini-pharmacy of anti anxiety, ADHD, anti depressants, ant-psychotic meds due to the constant medication changes my son has gone through since January!
Most if not all of these are controlled substances.
Can somebody tell me how to properly dispose of not just the pills but the bottles and packages properly?

This information would seem useful personally and in relating to others. One might be a better friend by dispensing a swift kick in one case but in a different case that swift kick could be devastating. Also, I've noticed that whereas vulnerability is closely associated to loveableness, there are also those who seem , consciously or un-consciously, to cultivate an air of vulnerability which is effectively manipulative. Again, I'd like skills in recognition and response, both in oneself and in others. Suggestions?

I have a 13 year old daughter with autism, she's a wonderful child, & has come a really long way. I have been reading that wheat & dairy free diets seem to free their bodies of yeast which have been said to "fog" their brain, & prevent them from expressing themselves more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your time.

Have seen a fair few questions from people who say that they are going to definately end it all, and I wonder why these people keep talking about it, are you trying to prove to yourself one last time that everyone and the whole world is screwed up so it'll give you more to push you over the edge?
Or is it because deep down inside, you still have a little bit of hope or reservation about committing suicide?
I'm not asking this to offend anyone, it's genuine curiousity.
And yes, I go through the same thing too with severe depression and suicidal thoughts, but if I was seriously going to end it all, I wouldn't be sitting on a computer and talking about it.
No, I'm not trying to piss people off, this is a legit question.

For the last 10 years I've tried Paxil(Aropax), Cipramil, Effexor, Prozac and Zoloft and even mood stabilizers combined with antidepressents and always after a few months, the medication stops working.
Right now I'm on 60mg of Paxil and am starting to get suicidal thoughts and it's annoying the crap out of me, because I know it's my illness making me feel this way and I don't want to die, I'm just sick of the pain and my doc has given me a script to take tranquilizers on top of the Paxil to help with feelings of agitation because when I become very depressed, I become agitated as well.
Does anyone else with moderate/severe depression have this problem as well with antidepressents losing effectiveness over time?
