So let's play the game. This time I recommend you to read the Power of Now. You're so identified with your depression that you absolutely refuse to let it go. That's your ego, it's not the true you.
Have you tried to give up all drugs, eat healthy, drink plenty of water and walk two hours a day? Of course you haven't. Duh! It would work. |
This is obvious to me that such a comment doesn't come from someone who has experienced Clinical Depression. I don't do drugs. I eat every day. I drink lots of water. But all these things don't scratch beyond the surface. I function pretty well. I've been going to church more often. But the depression still hangs over me. Did you know you can live an active lifestyle and still be depressed? Neither did I, until I experienced it first hand. How do you explain the taste of a fish to someone who has never eaten fish? You can tell them all about it, but until they taste it themselves they won't understand. They have to taste the fish for themselves. I can't thoroughly explain my feelings through this website. You'd have to experience them yourself. Besides who said I was complaining? My spirit may have been vexed, but that doesn't mean I am complaining. I can see some people don't understand what it is like to have a long-lasting depresion, and I can't explain it in the right words. Trial by fire perhaps... I'm not really sure to tell the truth.
