Depression can be affected by getting enough pure water, Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, selenium, folic acid, calcium, magnesium, chromium, niacin, Vitamin D, B vitamins - all of which are best derived from food <br />aromatherapy using Lavender essential oil helps too<br />good luck :0)Michellehttp://oaksblogs.com/index.php?p=1_13_FREE-Stuffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666053994943294128.post-13960391242130841492009-08-26T21:06:44.299-05:002009-08-26T21:06:44.299-05:00I think there always can be times that you can get...I think there always can be times that you can get lost, epecially if depression runs in your family, or if you just have depressions and you don't know why.<br /><br />I've dealt with this most of my life, and although I have been on meds, I have never felt they really solved the problem. Maybe they lelped mask it some, which is NOT what you really want for depression!<br /><br />I'm nearly 60, and I am still in this in and out cycle that I've been in for a long time. I hate it so much for my family, my husband, my son and his family.<br /><br />I want to be a normal person, whatever that is!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666053994943294128.post-69965654990599692962009-08-21T10:31:32.266-05:002009-08-21T10:31:32.266-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07564171760376635806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666053994943294128.post-64687814224610826202009-08-17T01:42:41.400-05:002009-08-17T01:42:41.400-05:00I love long posts too. they always have so much c...I love long posts too. they always have so much content!

Luckily we have some people who cheer us up and inspire us to get up and start doing what we were doing. Maybe you just need to relax, be alone and think about the next steps you will be taking to succeed. Don't let yourself go down just because you didn't work out or ate a little bit too much. Just forget the past and concentrate on what's next for you!<br />:) *hugs*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666053994943294128.post-82246969985056797972009-08-14T17:35:33.795-05:002009-08-14T17:35:33.795-05:00I'm with Monica and Auburn.

I got "lost" for a while in College, and my (incredibly overprotective) parents sent me to a therapist, who, despite my preconceived hatred, ended up being wonderful and incredibly helpful. They never actually diagnosed me with anything or gave me antidepressants, so it might be a good option if you're not quite at that level where's it's something, but are at a point where you're not really functioning at 100%.<br /><br />It's a tough world out there.

Keep 'em coming!<br /><br />I'm sending you an email ... too much to say here ... long posts are awesome but comments that are longer than the post may be breaking a social barrier. :)<br /><br />Hugs!!Jogging Auburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07533173045947568210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666053994943294128.post-90086658891733326712009-08-13T22:47:21.911-05:002009-08-13T22:47:21.911-05:00Yeah right, I LOVE long posts!

Its fun to find out famous people are just regular people, too.<br /><br />I had a whole 3 years of what you are describing. I was a zombie. Except during the beginning of my depression, I said mean things to nice people. I really regret that.<br /><br />As long as you are snapping out of it, Im happy for you if you are happy for you :) KEEP BLOGGING! Oh and do your hair and makeup, that always helps to motivate people!Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07759826087739490609noreply@blogger.com
