    It can for a while, like while you are drinking it...but when you start brooding about what it wrong while you are drunk, it tends to make it worse...though it doesn't stop me from having a few beers to "help me fall asleep" *winks at cooloner*

    yeh i know what you mean. but im not dependent on him luckily. the longer i dont see him the more i dont feel i need to. kind of weird. he just picks my mood up, however if im in a reeeeaaalll bad mood then it transfers and puts him in a bad mood too. but if im ever sad about something he always helps me out and makes me feel better.

    we have to be sad sometimes to remind us to appreciate when we are happy. all things aside, you are alive, you chose your own destiny, you are in control, you can do whatever you want. doesnt that make you feel good? you set your own boundaries.

    so you would not recommend trying X?
    I've always seen it as pretty shady, dunno why


    yeah, the tiredness was a big part of my problems, the depression made me more tired, the tiredness made more depression etc.
    It hink what actually got me out of that was all the Vault I bought when it was on sale [​IMG]

    I don't htink that's weird at all, slowly your brain shifts him back as all kinds of other things take place as the focus

    sorry to get technical - but theres feeling sad and theres depression - then theres all the shades in between.It can be a really gradual thing that you are not aware that is happening - it CAN creep up on you over several years - if you have an addictive personality for instance.like you might run out of things that give you a kick - and this could lead to serious illness - so you might suddenly make a decision (if you're working on yourself) to try something completely new that you've never done before - it's a diversion,but a diversion that has good odds off paying off.Alternitavely you might just go back and do something you did before - that works - at any cost you must - like for me - conservation - chopping down stuff and planting stuff i know would do the world of good for me right now,if i could find the right place.Whole different story if you've got kids - you don't have so many options - and probably just as many if not more parents have feelings of just wanting 'out' and for them the key is finding a way to do it without involving any seperation.Like my friend nearly split up with his wife cos living in the same place for years was driving him mad.In the end they compromised (just about) and are moving to new zealand (from uk) for a year.Some might say at the kids cost - e.g. changing schools etc but he was left with no option - else he'd become ill and then no use to anybody for a while

    technically, depression means a feeling of sadness
    clinical depression is a whole nother ball park

    no it wasn't

    depression is sadness, clean cut
    for it to be considered clinical depression they have a checklist, you have to have 7 of the 10 (or is it 11?) symptoms

    like there is any freedom in that though...
    no matter what it's a trade off
    you have to at least risk freedom to be able to kill
    wait.... I could be a uthenizer in Oregon, who's to say they didn't want to get killed by way of ax :D

    not necessarily, there are so many job options for a psych graduate, especially if they are willing to keep schooling and specialize
