1415482 tn?1459702714 Whether or not you think someone has it worse doesn't matter. "Normal" people have depression and anxiety as well. These are not only our symptoms. However, in our world what we want is to be out from under this rain loud while others may want a new car or a better job. We have a better understanding of compassion and depression than most of the world will ever realize. My favorite saying is "We all live in cycles. Notice the ironies of life and enjoy them.
Avatar f tn I do the same thing when I am at my weakest point and have the worst depression and anxiety. I do think that it is the depression that does this. Depression makes you feel guilty for nothing and over everything and makes you say "I'm sorry" to everyone for no reason. I don't know if you are on meds for your depression and anxiety but try to fight this guilt with the power of your own mind. We really don't harness all the power that the brain has.
Avatar f tn I made so many mistakes and I fix them I was forgiven for all of them but I still feel the guilt and the sadness and most of all I feel lonely.i cry almost every night asking myself why I feel this way and nothing seems to help. When I try to talk to someone else about it, I dont get anything but their silence and their judgement or they will simply ignore me. I need to find something that will help me.
Avatar f tn Can immense stress/ Anxiety Depression/guilt over a shady sexual act cause your body to release a dormant virus from many year ago. Can you have gotten a bad flu/ EBV many years ago that you didnt even remember, even in childhood. And this virus was released to make you ill again and also active enough to spread to another sex partner by kissing or breath??? Can this re-released virus be what causes real symptoms that resemble ars in people?
Avatar n tn After 51 years of undiagnosed thyroid diseases, temper rages, severe skin disorders, a problem with being too hot all the time, occasion depression, routine severe ansxiety, and on and on. Where would I be now without her? Dead probably. Whatever she needs to know about, that you can't tell her, can be shared in therapy or with a very close family member, or religious counselor if you feel you need a "buffer.

Avatar m tn Yes the guilt is overwhelming. So is the depression and anxiety. Lexapro has helped a lot with the depression piece. I am hoping the counseling will help me get my life back. Not just my life but my wife's as well. I did recently have my annual physical. Besides my Vit D being low and my cholesterol a tad high, everything else was fine. Today I have CT Scan's as part of the Blood Clot monitoring. This is all very frightening as you can imagine.
Avatar m tn I commented on someones post about what you can live with and I can live with the guilt of not telling her until years have passed! Probably not the right decision but for now seems like the only way! Kind of an off base post but I just wanted to throw this one out there......
Avatar n tn Hi - I made two mistakes in my life, had protected intercourse with two prostitutes. I am completely overwhelmed with guilt and can't get over it. It will never happen again. I keep thinking, what if i got a disease what would my life be like. It's borderline depression inside but not outside. How have some of you dealt with these types of situations ?

Avatar f tn At the top of the forum index page there are two buttons - Warning signs of Depression and Symptoms of depression. The symptoms page follows the DSM (Diagnostic Statistical Manual) which is what pdocs used to diagnose mental illness. The other one, warning signs, covers DSM symptoms and a few more related signs which may or may not be present, like anxiety, irritability and alcohol use.
Avatar f tn If you have experienced five or more of these symptoms within the same two week period,especially if a depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure are among your symptoms, this could be indicative of an episode of depression. The symptoms should not be accounted for by another illness, drugs of abuse or prescription medications.
Avatar m tn It may include feelings of sadness, anxiety, emptiness, hopelessness, worthlessness, guilt, irritability, or restlessness. If you have depression you need to get help tell your doctor about it for sure he might have something to help you.
Avatar m tn I would also like to add that I feel extremely guilty for something I did (infidelity) and was stressing about it for a while when these symptoms began about 2 months ago. Can depression stem from guilt, anxiety, and stress? Any help is much appreciated. I feel horrible for what I did and have learned very much from this whole situation. I am just trying to get back on track and move forward. I really wish I could forget what I did and feel normal again. Please help. Thanks for reading.
Avatar n tn t have to experience guilt over any feelings but feelings of guilt are part of depression too. My best suggestion is to discuss this all over with your psychiatrist as perhaps you might have bipolar instead of depression and mood stabilizers such as Lithium, Depakoate and Lamictal are used for that and anti-depressents sometimes worsen mania.

1337734 tn?1336234591 Yes it is hard when our spouses become caretaker but it could be the other way around. It is okay to be sad. I finally realized my guilt and depression were hurting my husband. On top of me being really ill I was upset which upset my husband. Now that I have accepted my life for what it is I am happy and my husband is happier.
Avatar n tn You still need to address these issues with a professional...they will help you with the feelings of guilt and regret, and your anxiety and depression. Those things can improve, but it will take time, and work with a mental health professional. I strongly urge you to make an appointment so you can start moving forward and finally put this behind you.
Avatar f tn We do lots of stupid and impulsive stuff, and guilt is there to teach us how to get along with others. But too much guilt held onto for too long stops being a learning tool and becomes depression eventually. Shame is a similar feeling, very much akin to guilt but often based on norms set for us by others we feel compelled to follow or set by us and we feel compelled to follow. Again, it's a learning tool, but held onto too long can lead to a loss of confidence in ourselves.
Avatar m tn People,don't lose faith,depression can be treated with the right therapy and the right medications,it's a question of finding the right meds for your depression,it's trial and error until you find the right one or combination and then life can become so much easier.Always consult your doctor when coming off meds and don't stop cold turkey because the withdrawl symptoms can be shocking.Don't ever think you're alone either because you're not.
2190999 tn?1504988891 I have read that one difference between general depression and bipolar depression is a persons energy level. It's a matter of feeling unable to perform even the simplest daily tasks because of overwhelming fatigue, instead of the general depressive sadness, hopelessness, ambivalence, etc. Does that make sense to anyone? Another difference is the depth of depression. The suicide rate for bipolar disorder is considerably higher than general depression rates.
Avatar f tn Actually a family member with bipolar had strong feelings of guilt during episodes of depression that would keep them up at night. They actually had done nothing wrong but fixated on what could have been done, that is they had worked in the past as a teacher in a neighborhood where the children were poor and did a lot to help them but kept thinking what else could have been done.
Avatar m tn I have been struggling with guilt and depression about this happening and cheating on my girlfriend. I have also been filled with anxiety since I have been reading a lot on the internet and the symptoms I have are all in line with HIV. So, my questions are: 1. Does the exposure I had put me at risk for HIV, and if so how bad is it? 2. If I was exposed to HIV, would the symptoms come on this fast? 3. Should I be worried about being with my girlfriend?
