Hey people. I have chronic depression. I feel hopeless, sad and unhappy. I'm always depressed about something.. Sometimes i'm just depressed for nothing. I'm currently injured and can't do mixed martial arts and i feel hopeless .. :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: People doesn't help me either .. they turn me down. I used to hang out with people before but they always make me feel bad. I was ready to kill myself numerous times but just never did it. How can i cure depression? I don't want to rely on drugs. I have very bad anxiety too. :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: Thank you.
I'm so sorry to hear that phump.. I would never have guessed! Are you seeing a councillor or anyone? Where in the world are you?
You may want to read this thread http://www.hipforums.com/forum/topic/458019-treating-depression-and-anxiety/ Head injury is fairly common in contact sports, especially boxing and mma. This can be a cause of depression. You may want to consider giving up mma, or find a martial arts form that is less likely to cause head trauma.
Have you considered employing the non-contact element of Tai Chi? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tai_chi or even Yoga?
You don't mention what your injury is. Cycling helps me a lot, something I can do for hours on my own, get to see the countryside, doesn't cost anything once you have the bike. Not much help if you have a broken ankle though.
Get a new hobby that you can do. There are tons of things to do and learn out there, even though your mind makes it feel like there isn't anything.
