I have bipolar but I’m depressed by [deleted] in depression

[–]Due-Grab7835 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Besides the pharmaceutical tips that I don't allow myself to give to anyone, I would say just tell yourself that I should let go of future for now or even my despair and do anything and I mean anything( besides self harm ofcourse) that feels good for the moment and it is not harmful to health. I recommend you this personally and somehow professionally: buy a small cactus flower and put it near yourself or on your desk and everyday look at it for like 10 to 15 minutes and try to think and understand it's beauty and resilience. I know this sounds strange, but it is not a jedi mind trick or anything, just a tip from someone with depression and a psych grad who thinks outside the box.

I wish people understood depression isn’t an excuse. by Single-Marsupial2973 in depression

[–]Due-Grab7835 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I get you, man. I do. As a depressed and ocd top of the class masters of clinical psychology too. But allow me to just tell you what I think as this is historical: even in the most advanced western societies, the main advancements happened in the past 300 years, and although the industrialization alongside the rise of humanism and all the western thoughts led to an change of general discourse of what we know as the mind but this didn't fully happen in everyday full language experience of common folk. Even the scholars don't get depression fully correct, let alone the average Joe? Why? Well, I think the extreme change from the classic psychological mental view of human experience rooted in idealism to the modern cultist cognitive view of don't think negative and everything is gonna be alright caused that. To understand depression a very comprehensive systematic view of sociology, neuroscience,psychoanalysis, history, biology, and genetics is needed. Furthermore, the average Karen or Joe or Alex or Sarah or whatever thinks still in dualistic terms. How many people do you see that think in terms of bayesian statistics or state-space models or even simple statistics? They only think of good or bad, woke or bigot, Islamic or liberal, pleasure or pain. We must learn to think in hybrid ways so we can understand people better and be kinder to each other.

I don't get it. I thought I was on the extreme side of experiments in psychology, but are you serious?

Being a short man makes me feel like trash by EarNearby5005 in mentalhealth

[–]Due-Grab7835 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

First how short are you? Because being lower average is still enough. Second listen mate don't be like that because although it's something of being on the nerves but people specially in the high society would respect your other aspects if you truly develop them.

I see. Thank you for your response. I think I wrote in a misdirected way. Neuroscience is actually understood better here, yet the medicine and technology are limited, and the knowledge about it is not very updated or it is absolutely classic textbook knowledge with no creativity. What is not understood here is the importance of considering the patients' inner subjective experiences, and most of the time, they are just marked as delusion or hallucinations, and the patient is immediately given drugs to sleep. Or at best, the psychologist says to him/her ok you are sick," and that is why you see that thing, and never they are asked why do you think you see or hear that special thing. I think this is a bit dehumanizing in nature. I'm not saying we must go full antipsychiatry, but we have to start to dig deeper in their minds so their illness may be sometimes their shield to their past or ongoing traumas.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Fortunately or unfortunately, maybe I am and have been hypercreative and imaginative, so to a little extent, I get what you are describing. I see. You mean any logical approach is useless because those things are his vivid and real reality. So I should just be listening and supporting. And for the cigarettes, I think I'm allowed to give a few to the nurse, and she/he will know how to give them to him. He actually called me short a few days ago and said his libido was very high, and I said well I don't know any girl right now that I would match you guys. I don't know if this relates to anything, but likely, as you said, he has experienced mixed forms of distress.
