RIP

Do you guys know if we have members that are mental health professionals? Surely we can cheer each other up and provide moral support in this thread but it would be really helpful if there are people who know how to properly address issues such as depression.



As mentioned by others early in this thread a lot of people that suffer from depression is because a lack of money.  I doubt anyone here is willing to just hand out money to people suffering from mental illness.  Moral support only goes so far when you can't afford the necessities to live.

Hello bitgirluk, sorry for your loss. Losing a friend can't be compared to any precious thing in this world.

This is a serious problem that the person dealing with it doesn't even want others to know that they have it, why? because they are afraid that people will make fun of them. Depression is truly one of the hardest disease to fight with especially if you are alone and no one is helping you to cheer up.

If someone is on this condition too, feel free to message me, let's talk about on how beautiful life is. Keep on fighting!

Our mind is a tricky little thing. I went through ups and downs so many times and looking back it always amazes me how the way we see our own situation can be different from reality. To give you an example, when I was at school and my parents were paying my bills I was so happy with the little things. My ups and downs depended on a bad mark I was given at school, or the fact that I won against my friends in a computer game. A simple thing like going to the cinema with friends could make my day, even though I had very little money, no car, no job and had to live with my parents.

Later in life I had it all up a level. My own house, a girlfriend, a job, a car, and it started to take much more to make me happy. A simple meeting with a friend or going to the movies became like eating or drinking. To feel good I had to spend a lot of money, earn a lot from investments, or win in gambling. I was missing all the little things that I loved as a teenager. Back then, buying a new book or a computer game was the event of the day. Now it's just a couple clicks in an online store that I can do while taking a dump.

The bottom line is, when you feel down think about all the little things that you're missing out on. They are happening all around you! You usually aren't depressed because you're in deep shit all of a sudden. You just fail to appreciate the good moments and lose balance.

Mental imbalance is now on the increase this days I just watched on the news now how a man killed himself just because he couldn't afford to pay bills and take care of his family need and children out of school because he can't afford to pay the fees. My question is why is it that it men that suffered much from mental stress then women.

Sorry for the loss of your friend.
Mental health issue is a serious health challenge that many do not know exist.
In my country, most people think that it's only when one removes clothes and start walking nakes on the streets .
They fail to understand that mental health goes beyond that.
I have been depressed quite a few times, mine was triggered by family related issues and such at times, I tend to be want to be alone.
I can stay in the bedroom for the whole day and I get flared up at any slightest provocation.
I also tend to scream at my kids.
People may not understand what a depressed person passes through each Time.
What they need is care and assurance that they are well loved.

If you are in a place to help someone from relieve their mental strength then just do it,most of the people will cry once their loved ones died but they never care about how they are living their life.

Even myself realized that much strength but I have the mental strength to get out from it.

I lost a friend recently who took his own life. I had no idea how he was feeling to the run up of this and didn’t get to say goodbye. I feel guilty that I didn’t see the signs. I also suffer from depression and anxiety myself but have been in a good place and reshaped my life in the past couple of years.

I’d like to offer this thread in my friends memory to chat to anyone who is suffering from mental health issues and needs to vent or offload. I’m not a counsellor or professional but I am a caring person and will offer anyone my time to offer a reply.

Sorry at that,I attribute depression to an increase and The reason for this is the constant pressure of life.
Poverty is the real cause of depression,Most depressed people do not like to show their feelings.
We can avoid this by providing support from friends.

As of todays many people and young men/women here in my country the Philippines suffer from mental health isseus as well and one of them is deppresion that usually starts from bullying others and to a fact that is because of acceptance.

As a registered general nurse, it hurts me more when I here of issues like this. sorry for your loss. someone will even ask that what is mental health?
It is the psychological well being or adequate adjustment, particularly as such adjustment conforms to the community accepted standards of behavior.
It is also defined as the full and harmonious function of the whole personality. It is the adjustment of human beings to the world and to each other with a maximum effectiveness and happiness. This places emphasis on element of personality made up of ID,EGO,AND SUPEREGO. An individual is said to be mentally sick if he or she fails in his adjustment with his or her environment and so exposed conspicuously. Any family member or friend found exhibiting signs that you consider a failure in adjustment should be taken to the nearest psychologist for immediate action to be taken.


people today here are so mad especially for kids who makes time bully verbaly that they dont care what the other person will do. Also to my concern the one who bullies have the problem as well and the same time the victim, from my point of view is the affected one. The reason I must say is yes, acceptance of people meaning they are body shaming results low self estem and the last thing that victim would do is to die from the results of depression.

Hearing this kind of death news is really so hurting. Specially when that person is a friend. Depression is a disease which has no medicine but prevent by own. Its really hard to give those person company where they believe that there's no way left for him/her. Sometime great counseling can heal their mental pressure where the chances rate is lower.

I have no words to give you condolences for your friend death. We can learn a good lesson from this that if we do something like that from mental depression and think that there's no one to think about us then its completely wrong because we have so many well wisher like OP who will surrounded by complete sadness after committing this kinda unwanted things.

That's a big loss, human lives seems to go wasted. First of all we need to be very careful in handling such circumstances. When one is into mental stress it is very hard to find whats running within them. What can be done by us is the consoling words. One who committed themself to die and someway escaped will never think of suicide.

I'm suicidal and the sole reason is because of lack of money.  I can't afford to have somewhere to live and afford food.  I'm under constant stress because of this and want to kill myself.
As someone who has been in this situation, I can say that the best thing you can do is find strength in yourself. If you can't, then turn to someone that cares to help guide you. You can PM me any time to chat about things if you would like, and that goes for anyone reading this message.

If you are young you are time rich, anything under 40 and you have time to work things out.  Even over 40 you can get your health and wealth together.  Go see someone and sart to work on a daily routine which will condition your body/mind for the better.

The truth is that a lot of mental illness comes from lack of money. 

Its for sure a contributing factor. If you dont have good solid finances you dont feel settled in life.  I have always found therapist or counselling helpful at all times.  You also need to consider being physically fit and eat a decent diet + no alcohol/drugs.  Its a challenge.

Wow! That must be painful for you and I can relate with the guilt you're feeling. Sometimes we only see the value of the person when they are already gone and then we feel regret that we didn't do the right thing when they were still around. Sometimes we are too busy with our own lives than we can hardly notice the changes in our loved ones behaviors but with the story you shared, it is an eye opener and made me think of my loved ones at this moment. Sorry for your loss.

So sorry about that but in all no body have the right to take his own life no matter the the level of your anxiety or depression, we all need to know that depression is developed when you lack the motivation to face life challenges that comes your way. But in all just know that everything fades away with time.

You have ZERO clue as to what the hell you are talking about. Not motivated for lifes challenges??  Depression doesnt Fade away it gets a little better or worse it NEVER fades away.
