News of Depressive Disorder NOS

Hello,
i had a major depression for the past 10 months ( that started without any obvious reason btw) and then suddenly all the symptoms and depressive beliefs went away ( i wasn't on medications ) . i started feeling "normal" once again, i could interact more with people, study...etc
then my mood kept going higher and higher, my level of activity became very high as well, i talked excessively, and when i had no ...

Up until a couple of weeks ago I still had some optimism. I thought, if I keep trying, I will find someone to love me. If I keep trying, I can fight my way out of this. I'll get a job and everything will be fine. But then I met someone I really liked who basically had sex with me then dumped me and ever since then I've relapsed. I am now addicted to painkillers ...

Hello,
I most probably suffer from depression for many many years but i tried to fight with it on my own but now i feel i cant go on with antidepressants. I avoid them for so long because i know they cause weight gain and i dont wanna put on at all. Do you know any antidepressants which dont effect weight or causes only weight loss for sure?

thx for answer

alright well this all started this year before going away to school for the first time. I was in the woods and had an interaction with derealization might of been due to marijuana i can't remember. Anyways I had what I thought was bad anxiety at school. I began to notice I wasn't sleeping as good waking up with sweats etc. I decided to do cocaine (i told myself i shouldn't) and had a horrible ...

I'm having suicidal ideations . The urge is so strong. I am only staying alive because of my mother. She is the only one who cares and loves me. I am only living for her and have been for a while.

Besides my mother I do not know what love is or what it feels like, I do not feel it for anyone nor do i feel it from anyone. I feel totally empty, no ...

Hi everyone. I'm not sure if this is the right place to post my problem, I hope my post doesn't bother anyone. I'm not a native English speaker, so I apologize in advance for any mistake.
"Brief" introduction: I've suffered from anxiety for as long as I can remember, and even though I've learned how to deal with it over the years, this doesn't keep me from having a relapse from time to time if ...

The part of the article I read about the Fischer Wallace Stimulator is their return policy. If someone does not find it effective they can return it for a full refund but only 15% are returned. I would take this to mean a lot of people are satisfied with it.
Has anyone here tried it?

Hi all,

Just looking for some advice about the nightmare I am experiencing at the moment. I've recently come off of Mirtazapine (due to weight gain and the slowness it gave me) and been put on Venlaxafine/Effexor. Been on it for around two months now, but on an increased dose for around two/three weeks. Anyway, I have been getting horrific mood swings (worsened by increased dose) which I generally always get when starting anti-depressants but ...

I'm slowly recovering from depression. It's a daily battle but, compared to where I was in June of this year, I've come a long way... Much quicker than some and I wish you all the best. From dissociation to fearing my intrusive thoughts, to coming to peace with my mind and learning to befriend my symptoms rather than fear them... I've truly come a long way. The only thing I battle nowadays are the spur-of-the-moment ...

Wow, this is tough...I'm used to being on the other side of the sounding board. But I know when I've been licked, and when it's time to go public.

I've been coping with bipolar disorder for 20 years, but that's not the problem. From May 2014 until the early weeks of August 2014, I was trapped bedridden by an illness that my physician still hasn't named. High fevers and a basic inability to move kept ...
