Depression Research Project Question
Hi everyone, I am new here, but I thought this place would be a good place to ask questions about experience with depression. I have depression myself and am doing a research project for a school project. That being said, what are your experiences with depression in daily life? How does depression affect your daily lives? Don't feel pressured to respond of course, and only share what you guys are comfortable with. I will not ask for/include any other information besides your experience that you share (will not reference usernames)
That's a good project. For me depression is not just feeling down,it's about being overwhelmed and not motivated in day to day activities. Lost of interest in things that used to make you happy. There doesn't always have to be a trigger. It can come out of nowhere. Sometimes even little things will bring it on or add to the depression. I have bipolar depression and am currently on medication and am getting help through counseling and support groups. Can still be hard tho. Even just getting through the day is hard. I think u need a good support system at home as well as outside help from a professional.
I've never heard of bipolar depression what does it mean tho
@tidyCoconut1094 Bipolar depression is another term for bipolar disorder, or for the episodes of depression that people who have bipolar disorder experience.
