Today I will be getting a little personal. I have been doing really well with being at home working in the situation the world is in right now. I usually have regular depression which I do handle quite well in my opinion. I am not prescribed any prescriptions to help due to me not exactly enjoying medications. I already take enough for my terrible migraines I get.

I know that I could have had a more worse day but depression is a different way of feeling. Sleep, work, and just being a person is hard. At least for me. I take a lot to stay on track and feel like normal. I do a lot of pretending and forcing myself to do the regular day by day things.

Depression: The persistent feeling of sadness or loss of interest that characterizes major depression can lead to a range of behavioral and physical symptoms.

My depression is definitely genetic. My mother has very very bad depression and has been medicated for it and some other family members as well. I have seen first hand how being medicated effects people and I just don’t think its for me personally. To any reader I apologize if that is rude or offensive because that is not what I intend to do.

I have a combination of depression and anxiety. I have personally learned that for me, my anxiety will lead to the depression stage that I am currently at. I had anxiety for about 3 days straight. My anxiety is a mix of paranoia, fear, sadness, and I have a lot of trouble breathing and controlling my emotions. I know its a lot but tis life.

This causes me to be super excited and ready for all things once and then after a while I will become super distant. Having both anxiety and depression causes me to be inconsistent on life in general. It is one of the hardest things now that I am currently a content creator. I have had better days which everyone does.

I always wish there was some kind of cure for this. Unfortunately there is nothing except medication to ease the feelings that we all get. I personally try to get as much correct and medical information as I can.

I know that sometimes with mental illness it has a stigma of shame and being hidden from the world. I come from a Hispanic family and it is sometimes different to express the mental hardships we are going through. As well with many other ethnicity’s and genders. I know from men it is harder due to the whole concept of ‘being a man’. Which I 10000% disagree with because that’s just not fair. Men are just as capable and emotional as a woman. It is important for everyone who needs any mental illnesses to get the proper help they would need. DON’T BE ASHAMED.
