I was browsing through the discussion interest - depression, and noticed lots of pessimistic messages and discussions here. Why not take this opportunity and with the festive season round the corner to cheer our fellow mylotters up? Leave a few quotes or comments which you think might help. Merry Christmas!!

I never said that, you should read more carefully. And also, I suffered with depression for 28 years and got myself out of it and haven't suffered with it since using these techqniues so they must be effective to some extent.

Do you really think it's that easy? You can't just snap out of depression just because it's Christmas.

Imho, that s why there is a category listed as depression, because this is where people/ mylotters who have experience certain situations or events in theor life, including me that need someone who c an relate to then maybe have experienced the same before. So anyone can offer their solutions or console those in time of depression. You could offer your experience and give examples wherein you thriumphantly overcame those experiences. We can never remove antone for feeling a certain degree of depression, sadness, disdain, lack of enthusiasm and self esteem. Imho, that is what make each and everyone here a unique person. Well it's good advice to cheer up our fellow mylotters, but maybe give them a bit of understanding of their dilemmna and offer choices to overcome them or move forward. My two cents only. Anyway, Merry Christmas also to you fineexistence and your family.

I guess you are right. And thanks for sharing your thoughts..though it does sound pessimistic. Hope you feel better after airing your thoughts and exchanging ideas with fellow mylotters. Merry Christmas once again and hope everyone who is reading this can put aside their unhappiness (at least for 2 weeks) and fully enjoy this season of joy and merry-making. Life must go on afterall. :-)

Everything discussed if fine, but how do you cheer up a person who fights with you, hollers at you, refuses to accept you explanation and threatens to call up the whole neighbourhood if you try to explain. She starts to cry and shout without any reason. Its for all these things that I am also going into a depression.
