Title: how do you know..
Post by: l a c e y on March 16, 2009, 04:44:21 PM
if you have depression?
like i mean what if you haven't gone to the doctors or whatever it is to get it diognosed or whatever you do.
how do you know for certain.
is there a way to know, or some kind of serious test you take.
or do you ask your doctor??

Another easy way to do it is see if they eat a weeks worth of pills in a day.  akudood;

Don't self-diagnose. Just don't, seriously. If you feel you may be suffering from depression, go see someone who can tell you if you really are.

You can go ahead and look up common symptoms, but don't bother trying to label yourself as depressed or not, because chances are you're not going to be accurate (and neither is any online test) and you may well make yourself feel worse.

In the negative sense (ie. the one dictionary.com won't give you hocuspocus;), to ruminate is to think about something too much. To have a (usually negative) thought rolling inside your head again and again and again, only making things worse by making you more worrisome.

and either way the point is she could at least look it up before asking everyone to look it up for her. it would be easier and less degrading.

Degrading? Only a judgmental faggot would think that of her (for that particular reason).

Everyone judges subconsciously whether they think they're judgmental or all-tolerant, all-accepting beings of love. To be constantly asking people what words means and spelling them wrong and using them wrong gives a bad impression no matter where you are.

um maybe, but it's still both easier and faster for you to look it up on your own. it's easier for you, and it's easier for others.
