Post Book Depression の小説・ストーリー

Amora said, "It's challenging to treat patients who have ceased engaging with their surroundings. Usually, doctors prescribe multiple medication therapies, especially those that stimulate motor and sensory functions, hoping the patient can better recognize their environment. But, in your case, I find this condition quite advantageous. I will provide you with medication therapy that will continuously lock your consciousness. There's no need for question-and-answer sessions or healing to treat your depression. The best way to forget is to send you to your beautiful dreamland and keep you there."

The thoughts that scare m‌e. She listens. Don't judge. Just nods. “S​arah, you have po​stpartum dep‌ression. And possi‌bly anxiety. It's common. Treatable. Not your fa​ult.” ​“I should be able t‌o handle this⁠.‌ I’m strong. I survi‍ved—​” “Y‍ou sur​v⁠ived a lot. A⁠nd now yo​ur brain⁠ chemistry is working aga‌i‌nst you. That’s not weaknes‍s. That’⁠s​ biology.”​

To know that there are people who were actually interested in what I had written still blows my mind. As you know I haven't updated this story in a while. First I was stuck in a week or week and a half long bought of depression. I've struggled with that and anxiety ever since I was in high school, I just didn't know what it was at the time. I have been on medication which helps however I just get into this little rough patches where I just don't want to do anything. Not clean my house, cook any food, not write, nothing. It sucks a lot to be honest.

"I will talk to my son once we leave. Please." "Okay. But don't take it all down on yourself. Otherwise, it will get worse." "Okay. Shall we go now?" "I have prescribed some poultice for your heart attacks and concoctions for your stomach bloats." "Stomach bloats and heart attacks? You said you found nothing!" "Well, those are the early effects of depression. You need to hold it together, boy. Apply the poultice around your heart when you feel burnt up with emotions, take the concoction twice a day for your stomach, and stop worrying too much."

"How are we?" "Good," Yessica said. Then, because Dr. Chen's office was a place she had learned to be precise: "Actually good. Not performed. Not white-knuckling through the day. The gray is lifting." Dr. Chen made a note. "I feel like myself again," Yessica continued. "I didn't realize how long I'd been a smaller version of myself until the original came back." The medication had been calibrated correctly. The therapy was working. The support system had held. Postpartum depression was not something you recovered from by deciding to, and she had learned that the hard way. But the treatment had worked, and it was over.

"I had severe postpartum depression. It is a medical condition caused by a rapid drop in hormones and the trauma of an emergency surgery. It affects one in seven women." "And during this time," Kostas pressed, sensing an opening, "did you ever have thoughts of harming the child?" "No." "Did you have thoughts of harming yourself?" Aurora paused. She thought about the window. The water stain. The gray river. "I had thoughts of disappearing," she said honestly. "I felt that my family would be better off without me." "So you were suicidal." "I was depressed," Aurora corrected. "I sought treatment. I took medication. I recovered."

I missed him a lot. Lately, I had become more emotional than ever. It was even worse than when I was pregnant. My aunt said it was postpartum depression. According to her, I had not given myself enough time before returning to work. I had jumped right in after giving birth, which was a big deal. She had told me to seek therapy but I had not done so. I thought it was something that pass in a short while but I was now being proven wrong. Maybe that was why I had lost interest in things that used to make me happy for example my job. Thirty minutes later, Mark and I stepped out of the gym.

I could feel the anxiety building, the anticipation of what I was about to say. “A few years ago,” I continued, “I went through a very dark period in my life. I was overwhelmed by the pressures of work, my personal life, and everything that came with being in the public eye. I became depressed, and I started taking medication to cope with it. But instead of getting better, things got worse.”

Nowhere else but up. “Aiden is right,” he continued. “You need to talk. Be open. Admit your fears. Overcome them. I can be your friend and support you, but to be honest, I think you’re suffering from depression, and you need professional help. Aiden can guide you through the exercises, but it all comes down to you. What you want. How much you are willing to fight to get it back.” He met my eyes. “You need to find that belief in yourself, Richard. You’re the common denominator here. If you don’t believe, nothing we do is going to work.” He sighed. “You need to stop living the future you think is going to happen and grab the here and now and change that future. If you don’t believe, you’re alr

The boys garnered some wood blocks back at the cabin’s tool shed, while me and Nica flumped at the cushioned sand, gossiping and opening up about our worst regrets. “Getting toppled by the exacting expectations. You can’t please everybody, even your parents,” remarked Nica. She took a momentum before she added, “Actually, I have chronic depression. Please don’t tell my brother I told you this. I had to pay a visit to therapist, periodically, costing a quarter of my monthly earnings as a full-time model. I’ve lost my appetite, looked extenuated. Thinner than my body today. After all those plights, I managed to rise up to the occasion. I moved out from our house and still trying to find that p
