Why am I like this? I've cried for no real reason several times in the past few weeks. Doc tried lowering my antidepressants last week because my head has been in a fog after doubling it 6 months ago, and maybe that will change in a while, but I really don't have anything to be crying about right now. No recent tragedies, the last death I mourned was probably my grandpa 3 years ago.Sure the world is in a shit state and I don't like hearing about it and paying 2x for gas. But that's hardly worth shedding a tear over.I know you can't really psychoanalyze me over 4chan, but how do I at least keep the waterworks under control?
Crying can be due to stress and feeling overwhelmed as well no? Its not just because you're sad. Some cry for extreme joy or maybe out of a lot of anger for example. So maybe try thinking about that?
>>34502032you haven't said anything about the state of your own life. do you have social connections? do you eat well? do you move your body at least a little bit? are your responsible for daily tasks and are they complete? your mind, spirit, and body have needs, it helps to fill them, antidepressants do not automatically suppress or fill the human drives for survival and satisfaction
>>34502032No man will ever love you fucking ugly bitch.
>>34502032>Feel like crying for no apparent reason constantlyYou're depressed and in dispair.
>>34502219>No man will ever love you fucking ugly bitch.Get some help, OP never mentioned it's a woman or not, and even if it did, don't you have empathy?
>>34502253How can he be depressedHes on antidepressantsLmao
>>34502289>antidepressantsThat's fake and gay. I'm sorry I gave you a spoiler about life, but psychologists have no idea of what goes in our minds, these medicines they give people are only useful to poison your minds, to fog your thoughts, and turn you into a zombie, of course you won't feel depressed, your brain will be fried.
>>34502215>social connectionsFamily and a couple friends>eat wellAs well as a burger can>move your bodyI've been hitting the gym and going on walks now that winter is over, and immediately started crying after getting back one time>daily tasksI need to clean up more, and I'm behind on some work stuff, but that's hardly a new phenomenon for me.I've had my problems, sure, but they've never made me break down like this.
>>34502304Yeah, the fog is why I wanted them reduced in the first place. But last time I went off them cold turkey I had terrible insomnia lasting months and basically OD'd on melatonin and Nyquil trying to get any damn sleep. It wasn't pleasant.
>>34502304psychology and psychiatry are separate and one is for-profit psychologists have a very great idea of what goes on our minds; go read any psychodynamic or psychoanalytic text from jung or shedler or mcwilliams or fromm and you'll see they're only talking about the human experience in terms of emotions. no where is there the discussion of "biochemical imbalances"; human beings are a feelings-based operating system that is shaped by their relationships and experiences psychiatrists have some literature, just clinical trials, cause and effect, efficacy. i don't really fuck with antidepressants as a first line treatment because the range of the human emotional experience can be analyzed in psychotherapy without medicationdon't be so retarded
>>34502340I'm sorry to hear that. Sadness is the natural state of life. We're constantly struggling and only sometimes we get a space to breath, and we're soon dragged into the same cycle all over again. You can probably try helping yourself with introspection, and adopting good habits, and checking on your hormones, I think this is better than any anti-depressants.
>>34502340>drugs didnt work so I stopped those drugs and added two other drugsWhy do we even bother with people like you
>>34502361You can't even help yourself buddy...
>>34502368Fuck else was I supposed to do, just not sleep until I go completely insane?
