I cant go back

26 Replies

I enjoyed myself today for the first time in probably 20 years...I never imagined the misery a human can go through could be so much. I was a happy kid sometimes, looking back it was more like a manic bipolars happiness. This is the first time I've ever been centered and at peace. It is possible to come back from the deepest of depths of depression and despair.

Thank you for sharing!! So glad to hear about how you’re doing. To be at peace is a serene state to be in - it makes sense to not want to go back!

I hope you enjoy tomorrow as much, if not more, than today.

What do you think helped this breakthrough to occur? I’m happy for you. 😊

It's a combination of a few things. Number one was figuring out I had thyroid disease after a drug overdose about 6 months ago. Two antidepressants. Three finding out that I most likely have celiac disease because I have most of the symptoms. This disease can deplete your neurotransmitter levels like seretonin by wreaking havoc in your gut where most seretonin is made. So I'm hoping as my gut heals the less I will need antidepressants and my body will produce it's own seretonin, gaba and dopamine.

Thanks friend

UPDATE: Things are getting much better in the past 28 days. My concentration and energy has gone up considerably. I'm starting to breathe very deeply and just be relaxed in the moment. It's a great feeling. I think things are going to get even better and I could possibly reduce my amount of antidepressant as my thyroid disease is treated and my self diagnosed celiac disease can heal and my body can create more neurotransmitters on its own.

As the depression and anxiety is almost fully lifted, I realized that it took everything away from me. It did help me see what is important and I will always be grateful for that. I can never go back there though.
