I Battle Depression

I am intelligent and educated, attractive, young, healthy, and fit. I have family and a few close friends. I am not poor or hungry, yet I battle depression every single day of my life. I have read that this will never change because of brain imbalances. I do not want to take medication. I just wish someday I can break free from the shackles of depression. I came here to try to find people who feel similarly. What kind of life is this to be sad for no reason. So sad that I cannot even cry, just pain.

I am so sorry to hear that you feel like this and wish that I could offer you some advice but I suppose everyone is different. I do tend to get depressed but not so badly as some

When i do I try to relax by listening to music and reading or going for walks. Being involved with people i thnk is very good therapy, just laughing or talking..it does me good

I hope things go well for you and you do improve. Best Wishes
