At some point in every person’s life, they feel down. I don’t think there is a single person out there who has always been happy all of the time. If there is, and you are reading this. Please give me whatever you are on.
I read in the media some time ago, that Tom Cruise slammed Brooke Shields for taking anti-depressants after the gave birth and suffered from the baby blues- post-natal depression.
Who does Tom think he is? He has no estrogen, or FSH or any other female hormones. How can he understand the baby blues and condemn mothers for using happy pills?
Brooke Shields took anti depressants. Other people drink to take their problems away. Other people use drugs, have promiscuous sex or they go sky diving or end their own lives. Everyone deals with depression in a different way. Depression being, manic, bipolar, chronic or just PMS. Depression is depression no matter what word quacks put in front of it.
The problem in “curing” or “aiding” your own depression is to ensure that you self sooth for only a short time and not turn the remainder of your life into a pity party and focus only on feeling better.
But for the short period of self soothing, self medicating. I fully support it.
If people went to doctors for everything, they would be poor, doctors would be rich and we would be weak people. I’m not saying don’t go to a doctor, all I’m saying is try help yourself first. You can discover your own strengths and weaknesses while doing this.
If you do decide to go the medical way and not the self destructive route. Or the unconventional medicinal way. Don’t be ashamed of it. Speak openly to your doctor and he or she will give you a little something to put your mind at ease.
Its perfectly normal for human beings to feel down. Even animals feel down. Elephants are highly emotional creatures. Dogs and dolphins are sensitive. Heck you know a dolphin has feelings when they are the only animals that pomp for pleasure.
Wolves howl and cry when a pack member dies. Vultures and most bird species are loyal to only one mate for their entire lives. If their mate dies, they are down.
Everyone has feelings and we can all have smiley faces all the time. Unless you have had botox and you have a permanent smile. If not, take a happy pill and smile away your problems.
Happiness is only a pill away.
