Depression!

[bravekhalsa]

what are you going thru?

[cyb3r_wolf]

everyone goes through depression, sometimes it can even be good for you, like in tests etc we get depressed and the outcome of that depression is usually a good result if we study hard.. but in some cases some moods and feelings can trigger off depression such as sadness or anger or feelings of being hurt or even being scared. Usually when someone feels nobody likes them they ask questions and go through a depression period.. teenagers go through depression as the teenage years are sometimes hardest, too much too soon...

I think this is a very common illness in our society.. but most of us are good at hiding it..

Strange question to ask at a Sikh site when Sikhs are the most Chardi Kalaa people!!! :umm:

Why be so depressed?

O my mind, why are you so sad? My True Guru is Perfect.

mansa kaa daataa sabh sukh nidhhaan a(n)mrit sar sadh hee bharpooraa ||1|| rehaao ||

He is the Giver of blessings, the treasure of all comforts; His Ambrosial Pool of Nectar is always overflowing. ||1||Pause||

whenever i get sad, i just remember this shabad and i realize i was sad over the stupidest thing...

we only get sad/upset because we havn't realized that everything is in Vaheguroo's hands and we need to have trust in him and in everything he does.

vaheguroo jee ka khalsa

vaheguroo jee kee fateh!

getting sad is different than depression. You get sad over something and then you get over it. Depression is when you sometimes don't even know why you are feeling down all the time and you just don't get happy and always think negative things. Thats depression. Don't get the 2 confused Bhenay!

haha, i know the difference, but i was talking about in the case of sadness. Overcoming severe depression would take a LOT of naam simran and kirpa. :umm:

this is a real good topic to discuss abt. manjot veerjee is right.....even if there are ppl undergoing depression, they conceal it. furthermore depression is not as easy to diagnose as feelings of sadness hence the slight confusion with these two. :umm:

it can be treated with some medications that fixes ur chemical imbalance in ur body..

anti depressent pills work.. no one should be depressed..
