Depression | Lived Experience

9:26 am PT5/22. Thank you ! I was sexually abused in my early childhood. Nobody knew until my 18 or 20. I’m 76. I went many years without a diagnosis. At 37, I started my walk as a Christian and years later, I got regular treatment for depression. I firmly believe in getting help and I’m against of the concept: if you are a Christian, you should not be depress. The same way doctors help with physical wounds, other doctors help with mental health!

Thank you for your honest and sincere sharing. This is one of the best Med Circle videos in my opinion. Love Med Circle.❤

Thank you for this, it’s so validating. It’s like you’re telling my exact story with depression. We have the exact same circumstances and the exact same challenges with depression! Very healing ✨

Thank you for your wonderful work. You've helped me and countless others. ❤

Thank you both so much. Very informative.

Greetings from Cleveland, Ohio ... Gratitude, Love and Appreciation 💫

This was SOOO valuable!!! My therapist has been telling me I have depression and I didn't understand what I was saying or doing that made her think that. Now I get it. The lottery story made me get it. THANKS!!

Great comeback story, thanks for your strength Kyle!

Thank you!❤

I have soooo much unprocessed grief surrounding my younger Brother and then my Mom ❤❤❤❤

OMG. I don't know what caused me to visit this interview today, but OMG. Thank you both. Hey, guess what! I'm a polyphasic sleeper! LOL Among other things. On the subject of BPD's acceptance: I have a concern that it's the 'in' thing now, like ADHD was 10-20 years ago. Defense attorneys blame BPD for murders (I really hope their clients were fully evaluated), school counselors blame it for miscreant students, TV writers use it as a convenient plot device to wrap up complicated storylines. I've had a number of friends in my life who really did and do deal with BPD every day. It's not easy, simple or benign. It ravages lives. Hearing a circle of 13-YOs chatting about BPD like it's an allergy really worries me because I think it's a convenient catchall when the insurance runs out. Jackie, you have a new follower!

I'm 35 a mom of two. I am physically happy of what i have become but deep inside I am very sad. I feel pity of myself doing everything for everybody (family). Kids still young 6 and 3. I don't know what is this inside me. We are not broke i have my salary that can compensate the needs of my kids but what is this is in me that feels pitying my whole being. I just wanted to feel loved. I just wanted to feel special to the people loved most. But how can i deal with this because if i will tell my husband he will just laugh at me. I did everything to achieved what i have become. All i wanted is to fell loved. I wanted them to tell me that i am loved. Im so tired.

Lovely interview

I used to like MedCircle because of its content, now I like it more because I have much empathy for Kyle. Good job!

There is nothing like the feeling of hopelessness and helplessness. Mindfulness meditation helped a lot. The workbook "30 Days to Reduce Depression" by Daniels was a good starting point.

“Stay Happy” -Blast from the Past

Hi all from San Diego

I study from medcircle video of youtube that having anti psychotic drugs after a parent's death is just for a low period of time. For limited time then after grieve over then drugs could be stopped.

U look so good Jackie 👌
