Something About Depression

Oakland, CA - We should be happy or at least not sad at all. The reason I know this is because I used to study a lot about Depression. I learned a lot and I know for sure everything I am able to tell you is true because I use to be in depression and let me tell you something for sure depression is no game it can take you to suicide. You can hurt yourself so much just by not even sleeping in the night thinking of your problems. When I use to be in depression I can tell you my experience was bad use to not eat a lot and the thing is that now I think to myself and say how come I didn't use to eat a lot and when you are in depression is when they have realized is that when a lot of people eat a lot a lot that they even start gaining weight. I used to take classes on how to make me relax and at the end I didn't want to leave the program I was in because they taught me a lot and they even taught me how to help other people who have depression. Here we go first of all the first step is to never give up because it's going to take time. You should have always something to hold on in your hand for example I use to always have a rubber hand around my wrist and when I would be scared of anything i would pull the rubber bland and I would feel a little spank in my body so that I was able to wake up and make myself relax when I would feel scared. The second thing was that when I would get home I would have my own notebook to be able to draw and write whatever I wanted. For example when I was feeling sad or depressed than I would start writing and drawing I remember I use to draw a lot of a guy when he was trying to steal my phone from because I didn't mention in the beginning that I used to be in depression because I was going to get my phone stolen outside of my schools and what the person did was hurt me with one hand to try to get what he wanted and what I would do was scream. Thanks to god nothing happened to me and now I am here ready to talk to you guys about my storm going through depression but now I am a strong girl and i am not scared of anything because I know how to protect myself and I am proud of myself because I didn't let depression take me away from my parents yes it can be something hard but ones you get threw it you will feel more strong than ever. Don't be afraid to talk to the person you love the most because they can help you get through this and always know that god is the only one that can decide when to take you away from this world because he brought you to this world.
