Message boards NOT being real life...

im depressed because i have a turtle head and there no loo roll in this fucking house

there has been research done by many leading psychiatrists to suggest that many of the drugs used to treat mental illness when replaced with a placebo drug create very similar responses in a person.

in my opinion, and i'm not a doctor so it is not a qualified one, there is no amount of drugs that will help someone who thinks they are depressed until they come to a point when they decide to re-take control of their life.

what is the difference, surely the symptom's are the same. isn't depression much like a self-fulfilling prophecy?

Depression messageboards?!?:spangled:

Do them boards have a humour section. I wonder if some people post links to suicide websites for those looking for the next step. I bet they only have 2 Smilies

isn't someone who suffers from depression the same as someone who thinks they're suffering depression? :think:

if a put a after that does that make me a bad person?

i dunno.. never broke my leg i think..

buy my guitar

I have listened to you lot and guess what?

Im cured!

your right, its all just in my head so why should i take tablets, why should i see a psychiatrist?

I dont want to, ive been telling people, my parents, martin, my doctors, my mates that i dont want to take the tablets and that this is just me and they all say i should (but i haevnt been recently and everyones quite angry at me)

I dont want to take them, and presumably, seeing as its not real, i shouldnt have to.

Seems im cured, althoguth not sure how that works if i never had nething wrong in the 1st place.

Oh dear. Another thread thats veered right of the track

wasnt my fault this time

i put a normal reply in, and brid started going off on one.

im being good today, possibly because im totally cured.

It you want to just do it

Yes.

Im joining ya tho -

The way I see it, if someone thinks that someone else can help them on this board then its up to them what they post. Wheres the problem? Ive had loads of help off people on this board when Ive had problems. OK, everyone may not be comfortable in doing that and thats fair enuff but obviously some people are. Its up to the individual. I'd rather get help off people I know than a bunch of strangers.

And, by the way, some of you make it sound that getting over depression is a piece of piss. Its a lot easier said than done.

But it can be done?

Yes.

A good 2nd half usually gets me over the depression of a shocking 1sth half.Although a shocking 90 mins can make me depressed for upto a fortnight.

You were fucked when we played Charlton then!

woo! yay! hooplah!

oh. wrong board

You have trigged a flashback:evil:
