DEPRESSION

[wastegal]

i never quite understood the meaning of depression what the hell is it? feeling sad, having nothing to do...

maybe you should stop watching TV, read Quran, Pray 5 times a day +sunnah, eat healthy, exercise and sociallise, seek knowledge, work, pay sakaat... the list is endless

counseling and drugs wont help you darling, unless its me you go to

[Nomand]

question why do you feel depressed? what is it that you do or you want to do but cant? which makes you feel left-out or depressed once you answer that question then that is the cure.

alhamdullahi that i was never depressed and hope not in the future.

Sis, im really sorry to hear that. But let me stress that no-one here is qualified to give you any serious medical advise. Given that your praying all the required salah's, all i can recommend you do is go see someone. Councillers can really help, dont concern yourself too much with their intensions. Just simply go and talk to a trained professional, and inshAllah, they can talk you through your problem. I have a really good friend who is suffering from depression, and i didnt appreciate how the symptom can come in different packages. And with the 'discipline' of psychiatry/councilling it may seem a daunting place to get involved in, but i swear to you, my friend had gained alot of good from it. Good luck my love, and inshAllah may everything go well.

What do you do when your feeling depressed??

Pray?!?

But ive been praying constantly... soo hard but i still feel the same. I need a cure because i honestly dont think i can living in this kind of state. Alhamdulilah no body has realised that ive been depressed.... Ive been to the doctors and he says i need counselling... But why would i tell a stranger how i feel? Why would the person care... If i was to go counselling, i would sit there knowing that this man or woman is just waitingfor the money to clear in there bank.

I try and do everything whole heartedly and i feel as if everything that ive worked for is worthless... pointless... Therefore im pointless.
i pray and pray... Once my dad saw me praying and i was crying at the same time and he grabbed me and held me and gave me the biggest hug ever.. tellin me he loves me... But i still feel like shit looooool...

You must be thinking that im talkin shit... But... I dunno. Im just a lost child.

Dont mind me Enjoy your day/evening

Wasta gal, depression comes from confusion, and confusion comes from shaydaan,dont let the shaydaan confuse you, u know whats right and you know whats wrong, calm your imaan and be greatfull for what you have.

[Wise-Man]

I hope you get well inshallah. but, why are you depressed and what are you missing? well, sistah, this life is too short and if it is really worth of anything, our prophet peace and upon him would have chosen to live longer. You never know when you gonna die, you might not even get up from your asleep when you go to bed at night.. It is that simple...!

On the other hand, remember this hadith whenever you feel upset or insecure.

"Whenever you see someone better than you in wealth, face or figure or anthing else which you lack, you should look at someone who is inferior to you in these respects (Bukhari, Muslim)

There are some people who are blind, deaf, handicap, poeple who got paralized because of illness and they stil manage to survive with all the problems they undergo. So if you are healthy and God has given you that brain, say alhamdu-llilahi and try to say acaadu billaahi whenever you feel pessimistic.

Well, keep praying and dont ever give up Allah's mercy

Amat-Allah : I dont think i would be able to talk to someone at all.. Just bring back the past will be hard and im scared to go back there.. but thanks

Keyse : i use to think that but if the shaydan had a hold on be then why wouldnt it stop my from prayering?... If that makes sense..

Wise-man : You are sooo right. And alahamdulilah that im alive and health. I think that im just not grateful for i have.

[Keyse_0208]

ok, in that case fuk it.. u might aswell just ride it out and see where it takes u

Sis, then im afraid if you dont confront this 'demon', your state of depression will just continue and more worringly develop into some more sinister and dangerous. Please, think about seeing someone- or even a private therapist. Talking about your problems is 1/2 away from a cure. I promise you. Take care.

Salam,

You really need to understand that there are many different types of depression. I googled it up

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_p ... Depression

do some internet search. make sure you understand depression and the symptoms

SO the point is make a list of your symptoms and GO TO A DOCTOR and take someone you trust.

Then gather as much information as you can from the doctor and other sources(ex. internet, islamic sources etc). What you need is information! And the next step is up to you.

You might be depressed so be it.
You might not be depressed.maybe a change in diet is required, excersize, releasing stress, life management etc


The best advice i could give is that you inform yourself. The more you know the easier it will be to find a solution.Don't allow the problem to escalate.
SEE A DOCTOR

May Allah(swt) bless you, give you good health and strength in your life.amiin

W/salam
