Mercury is in retrograde and that fucks with a lot of people
 Quoting: Malu nli


So is Mars (Retrograde) ~ Mars is energy ~ perhaps Mars went to sleep on one of your natal planets or on a cusp. That will deplete your energy big time! Mars goes direct on November 14th, 2020. Also, you may want to consider Mars square your Sun or Neptune, which can last 2 to 3 years & is the most depleting aspect of one's energy level.

Take a little Vit. D each morning until you can
get outside to let the sun do its job. Yo shouhave known
that by now: every Winter this happens and suicide
numbers rise. Yes, we are kind of silly to do
thigs like that, or dumb as mud?

Find something you have a passion for and dive in. Hard to think about the world when you're figuring out something new, something hard to learn, or discovering information you haven't previously encountered. That's one way I keep away from the doom and gloom side, figuring out new things.

Re: I'm Generally Really Upbeat. Lately The Depression Is Kicking My Ass
What caught my attention in your post was your reference to your chronic pain. Chronic pain reduces your endorphins to the point your body may not be able to replenish your brain with its feel good chemicals fast enough which can lead to depression.

Epsom salt baths help + valerian root (for muscle pain).

5HTP precursor to serotonin may help w/stress-anxiety (takes awhile to build up in system). Take before bed it can make you sleepy.

I take a Melatonin + 5HTP supplement nightly. Helps me get to sleep and stay asleep for at least a few hours (also suffer from chronic pain).
P.S. Yes, your vitamins too like other posters stated! I take extra D3, C, etc. daily as well.

Go for a walk outside. Go to town.

Get into something social. Play a sport or something.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79233713


Huh? What?

Going for a walk outside and I see people walking or riding bikes with no one around and they're wearing masks.

I go to town and I see zombies with masks.

What social activity isn't going to involves masks?

Got a beautiful lake with nature trails nearby. In April/May, 90% of the people enjoying this park were unmasked.

I went there last week and 90% of the people were masked.

It's some weird twilight zone and it's unnerving, unsettling and depressing.

All depression and mental illness is caused by outside factors. You are depressed because your subconscious mind is 100% aware of the fact that your current environment and the system you exist in is complete and utter twisted, festering GARBAGE. The world is full of cancer and sickness, every time you engage you drag some of that cancer and sickness back into the recesses of your mind. Doesn't matter how happy you believe you are, that cancer that has now been growing in your mind will eventually break you down.

The one and only solution is to take your ball and go home. Do not engage with garbage people and their garbage views and garbage actions at any cost. Do not engage. Avoid at all times. Not one second, not one thought. Nothing. Then and only then will that cancer that's causing you to feel like that start to die slowly.

I don't believe that in the least. You can take a perfectly happy and normal human being and turn them into an absolute mess in a matter of months just by putting them in a different environment. A happy dog that's abused and neglected will become a wreck. An abused dog put in a good loving home will eventually become happy again. No pills needed. It's all environmental. We live in a horrific mental and emotional environment in modern times.

Oh i agree with that for sure.
But ive known people that have "everything going" in life but still are super unhappy and suicidal too.
then again you never know whats making them depressed. all you know is what they tell you. so i guess they could be withholding the real reasons (like cheating or whatnot)

Re: I'm Generally Really Upbeat. Lately The Depression Is Kicking My Ass
Same here op, i have so much going on atm i am spinning out a bit tbh and my anxiety levels are through the roof as i am getting physical effects of buzzing all through body and it feels really uncomfortable. Hopefully in a few days that will go as things are becoming a little easier but never had this before.
 Quoting: curry nosher


That sounds terrible! :(
 Quoting: Fossy


Yeah doesn't feel good. The other day i was getting some funny burning smells that would not go away and put me on edge thinking i was about to get some serious health issues but realised it was open windows and early rising locals burning plastic trash over the wall thank goodness. Still, it feels like my tinnitus sounds so i hope it eases soon lol.

Vitamins can help.

Positive coping skills.

Working through childhood trauma.

Dealing with Control, when we can't control the world it feels bigger than it is, put it back into perspective with a list of positives and negatives.

Time management helps too.

Vision Board, goals and objectives.

HOMEWORK on yourself. You can fix issues if they are pinpointed.

Re: I'm Generally Really Upbeat. Lately The Depression Is Kicking My Ass
Not really just depression for me but a string of really horrible unfortunate events that seemingly won't stop. Very strange. Really almost paranormal. And yes, at this point I am feeling depressed (and I am not depressive). But more than depressed really extremely exhausted. Also been wondering if there's something going on or if it's just me, just really horrible luck.

The trick to depression though is to realize that you are staring at your own ego and feeling bad for yourself, generally. If you could step out of that and snap out of the self-staring, it would not have such a strong hold on you. I am not saying this disparagingly, mind you. I know what depression is. This has worked for me though and you might want to try it yourself. Just try to focus on something other than the self/ego.
