There are many causes of depression. Most people do not know when their
depression started. It's as if they were depressed their whole lives. For
others it was the result of a tragedy, traumatic event or injury. For those
who are unsure what caused their depression, knowing, and doing what can be
done about it can help a great deal and possibly make it possible to recover
on one's own.

People typically do not get the nutrients they need. Most people do not take
multivitamins and they've never been told about the importance of the right
kinds of fats. I'm sure that caught more than a few of you off guard. Yes, I
said fats. Did you know that your brain is 60% fat? That's right. And if
you've ever heard of neurotransmitters then you probably know how important
they are. Well, they move IN FAT. YES! The wrong kind of fat is like trying
to swim in syrup. The fat neurotransmitters need to function properly are
Omega-3 and 6s which are found primarily in fish, and to a lesser degree in
nuts (mixed with Omega-9s and 12s which are not as good for you) The worst
fats are solid at room temperature and include saturated fats and trans
fats. If oil is heated it will turn into trans fat so obviously fried foods
are bad for your brain, hence neurotransmitters, hence your emotional
health. Fish oil capsules are cheap and will make you feel significantly
better in 3-4 weeks at a dosage of three 1g capsules twice a day.

If you believe you've been depressed your whole life then you've probably
grown up in a dysfunctional family. Most people have. Some people cope with
that better than others, some just hide it better. I sincerely hope that
everyone will choose to read "Healing the Shame that Binds You" by John
Bradshaw. It discusses how we are taught to feel ashamed even before our
first known memory so that we build defenses to hide it before we even know
that it exists, and then the shame, that we don't know is there, causes us
problems our whole life.

If you want to get better, and anyone who's depressed usually say they do,
please take those two simple steps.

Read my other messages and try to apply them:

and see a psychiatrist who received a degree in psychology in the last five
years.

Alternatively, you could try getting some sort of training yourself,
rather than adopting the most patronising tone possible in order to
deal out monotonous drivel that offers no hard evidence for its
content and, to anyone with half an ounce of training, looks
suspiciously like complete bunk.

Having looked at your site, which contains more of the same sort of
unsubstantiated rubbish contained in your posts, I can only hope that
your own qualifications aren't in an IT- related discipline because,
to be completely honest, the presentation is even worse than the
content (and believe me folks, there's real competition there).

In fact, do you have any qualifications? Or are you a psychiatrist who
received a degree in psychology?

Dear, oh dear...

Your website is about you and your self-promotion. I think you need more
help than most of us here. Or do you see your life as worthwhile if you
pretend-play being the good samaritan on the internet?

Thank you for your sweet words of encouragement. You do need to read more of
