Any one Here SufFer Mental Heath Issues ???
If I have to live the rest of my life without freedom, then you can't count me in.
The fact that we live in a society where we're approaching getting to the point where 51% of the population will vote away all of our rights for an $1,800 stimulus check will break my mental health if that day comes.

Thanks for the honest replies 👍🏻
A Combination of factors over the last year 18mnths have got to Me.
Struggling quite a lot of the time recently to keep it contained , This continued lockup
& Denial of Life as it was Coupled with the 24/7 Doom Gloom Death Propaganda from
MSM & Government 🤬😡🤬 & Yes There is a China Virus, it’s all the lies & hype around it
To in-still Fear into Folk I can’t abide.
It’s a Real struggle to walk around supermarkets with the sheep wearing bits of paper / Cloth/
Scarves etc over their faces - Really is Boiling Me.
And those utter Fucking Twats that say have you got a mask 🤬🤬🤬 No you Dumb Fucks you can
Clearly see My Face it isn’t covered- They very soon Shut up & Fuck off If/ When I Tell Them I have
Mental Health issues.

I think it's implied in my post that the lock-down is getting to me. Aren't you still in some level of lock-down too?
And the reality is - if this is how the rest of my life will be, I will be chronically depressed, and effectively have perpetual mental health issues.
Put another way, my answer to illuminati's question is:
Yes. Right now.
But this will go away with freedom. But I have no faith that we will have freedom throughout the rest of my life here in The West. And why do I think that? Because I'm surrounded by fucking idiots who would give up their freedoms for a one-time stimulus payment.
None of that was unclear. Furthermore, all 2020 data reports mental health issues went up. This isn't some insignificant matter.
Are gyms closed where you are, Josh?

I don't suffer from mental illness. I enjoy every minute of it. Insanity doesn't run in my family. It gallops. (Arsenic and Old Lace)

I think that's most people.
Exercise almost completely eliminates these problems for me. I had no idea just how much working out helped me until taking a sustained layoff.
It's hideous to me that Bill Gates never recommends to anyone to exercise, or to eat healthier food. Now every cure is a pill, and 1 in 9 prescriptions in Canada is a benzodiazepine.
-
This lockdown really has been no big deal for me.
My wife and I stay home most of the time and only go out to get food and to doctors appointmdents and to the pot office for my Ebay stuff.
Of course I`m al old fucker.

I havent really been working out due to my COPD but I`m planning on starting soon and jut going at my own pace.
But hitting the gym does releive stress.

Wow. Ontario is such a piece of shit. We're still on lock-down and curfews.
I will wear a stupid mask when I'm out I'm out, if it meant everything else is normal. Fortress said that, and I have come to terms with it.
I walked past the LCBO today [Ontario government liquor store], and it was filled with people wearing masks loading up with alcohol.

Old...and looked like Mark Wahlberg did at 20 when you were 60.
I mostly stay home, too - but I want to get on a proper strength gaining program. Really, that was/is the biggest issue for me. Everything else was fine.
Sounds like we both benefitted in some ways from some time off. But I feel like I'm recharging my cellphone over and over when it hits 90% power, lol. Enough already.

I'm curious how fast you get back to peak form. It will help keep my mindset strong.
I don't agree that "age is just a number", but I do think a lot of people unnecessarily talk themselves out of being able to do things because they hit a certain age, and that's a drag.

Age never ever entered my mind but breathing is essential.
I feel awesome but when I exert myself a bit too much,I cant breathe for shit.
That`s why my old train fast and hard rule has to go out the window and I jut have to listen to my body now more than ever before.
I`d hate to survive Cancer then die of a heart attack.

Well we share a good few traits 👍🏻
I’m constantly now questioning my complete sanity & seriously contemplating letting
It all out - That wouldn’t be pretty or fair on many people though.
I’ll battle myself & get to a better place - I hope 🤞🏻👊🏻👍🏻

My doctor reckons I'm paranoid. He's not quite said it, but I can tell he's thinking it.
Just because your paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not after you

Sorry to hear you not been feeling well but please don't beat yourself up about it, during these trying times it is entirely expected that a lot more people will be experiencing mental health issues. I agree it is very disheartening seeing so many people easily taken in and manipulated by the powers that be, in a lot of cases they never think to even question what they are being told. All the doom-and-gloom media coverage really annoys me too, I had to stop reading the Daily Mail because it was so over the top.
I hope things get better and you start to feel better. Hang in there.

I took 75- 5 mg. Diazapam one time not long ago throughout the course of the day...........never felt relaxed or even fell asleep.
I must have been a bit loopy because I called my therapist who sent a priest, a cop and 2 psychiatrits to my house.
I told them all if they had no warrant to get the fuck out of my yard or I`d go beserk.
One of my better day to be certain

Nope, I follow below:

3) Keep routines no matter what.

Some good advices there - especially number 2. Remain kind, but keep your distance from drama unless you absolutely must be involved. Some people thrive on this sort of sh1t to fill the emptiness...

You guys are nuts
-
If I remember correctly
Major depressive disorder- intermittent type
Alcoholism
OCD - mild
That’s what the psychiatrist said. It made me sad, so I drank a bottle oh Johnny walker and punched him in the face 5 times 5 times

When I look back at the root of my own depression etc- it was caused by other people who "thrive on misery/depression and doom/gloom" - the old saying "misery loves company".
Today I recognize these people for what they are...
-
Non bodybuilders think they all have issues due to the need to have a muscular body, so... Do we all have issues?
-
I wouldn't eat, shower, or get out of bed for days at a time. I always tried to stay hydrated, because that is obviously what goes first.
Unless you struggle with it, you have no idea.

That’s Good to Hear 👍🏻 💪🏻
As long as I keep away as best I can from my Triggers & Keep working on self hypnosis
To calm & correct my wayward thinking I’ll get Better.

I'm also talking about depression and anxiety in general. I remember my senior year in High school, when my mother and father, seriously talked about divorce.
I literally shut down. I remember my father screaming in my face "You are going to school!"
I was like a zombie.
I guess what you can say is that I internalize things.Then when it builds up over time, I do not handle it well.
I will likely lose my shit when my mother and father die. I still have not lost my Grandma's either.

Most people have some mental health issues. It is a matter of degrees. Someone who has full on paranoid schizophrenia is definitely on the worst end of the spectrum. Most of these people cannot function is society. One of my late aunts was paranoid schizophrenic. From middle age on, she was in and out of the hospital, when she was out, she'd go off her meds and she was homeless by choice. Amazingly, she lived into her 80's....longer than any of her siblings.
I suffer from depression and have for as long as I can remember. Fortunately, it is fairly mild depression and easily managed with a medication and positive practices.
It has been said that this pandemic is causing a lot of mental health issues for people of all ages. I believe this to be true. Since its onset and with
the unknown duration of the pandemic, I am both bored and disinterested in doing much of anything...this a bad combination of feelings. I felt better when the weather was warmer and it was enjoyable to work in my garden. Winter has never been my favorite season.
do you have SAD ? I do but have managed to beat it, still some days in the winter I feel not that well, but overall I have overcome it. I take Vit D and on sunny cold days go walking.

Yes, I believe I do have it. This is why I take vitamin D daily and whenever weather permits, I spend time outside. The one thing I am not doing this winter is tanning, which is something I did in the past because it is supposed to help with SAD.
Why are you not doing some training??
-
I have a family member who is hospitalised due to it, the reality of the state of mind to the individual of whats not happening is very sad but also dangerous as they can become very unpredictable.
As we get older our minds get like our houses with our possessions overloaded, leaving us with less room or ability to cope, sustaining good mental health as we age older due to healthier lifestyles will be one of the greatest challenges for this generation.

You need the specific wavelength of uvb2 waves 'bro'
Do you mean why am not tanning? Because I am training, as in working out. I purchased the X 3 Elite band training system a little while back. I workout four days a week. For example Monday I do push movements and on Tuesday pull movements as outlined in the program. Then two days off, two days on and one day off. All the equipment fits in a relatively small box that I can slide under the bed when not in use.
There are three reasons I am choosing to not go tanning. Firstly, the tanning stores were part of the original Covid 19 shutdown in Oregon. They're open now, but the idea of getting into a tanning bed that someone who could possibly be contagious just used before me seems crazy stupid. Although, they are supposed to sanitized between customers, I'm not ready to trust the clerk to properly sanitize the bed and the room it is in. Secondly, I was paying too much for the number of times I went. Lastly, my dermatologist advised against it.
I may look into purchasing a light therapy box (full spectrum lighting) which is said to help treat SAD.

What would that wavelength be? uvb rays are not as bad a uva, but they can still cause skin damage. What I miss most about going to the tanning salon is red light therapy, which actually helps repair skin damage caused by UV rays.
Can you not hire a home sun bed ??

Mental illness runs on both sides of my family. I have a lot of family members who where at one time drug addicts or alcoholics. A few had attempted suicide; a couple succeeded.
I've always struggled with general and social anxiety, i have a very introverted personality, but i can be extroverted at times and get along with most people. I have a "switch" that i can choose to be social or completely anti-social, which i prefer.
I prefer to be alone and at times in years passed i felt depressed. I know one time i felt like garbage for about 18 months and literally would not talk to anyone or leave the house.
I get very anxious around large crowds of people, i despise going to crowded places that are loud. I've been like this my entire life. Oddly enough if i drink a few beers it takes the edge off, but that's not the best way to handle things.
The one thing i learned was to ditch the meds and find an environment that you feel comfortable in. Move out of the big city and get a job that is less stressful. Most people suffer from bad living conditions and overly stressful jobs. Some people thrive in those environments, most don't.
I used to sit in traffic for over an hour every morning AND every afternoon. It drove me crazy. BUT i found that carpooling with other people made it tolerable.
You see, there is always a way to fell better or at least "improve" your situation. Like someone said above, as you get older you fill your head with stuff, sooner or later you run out of room and it bothers you. Learn to "let go" of things that do not matter.
Best advice i have are three things:
1. Learn to let go. When something happens think to yourself "is there anything i can do about this RIGHT NOW?" If the answer is yes, then do it. If the answer is no, then let it go. Most people who struggle with anxiety and depression have problems letting go.
2. Improve your environment. Live in a quiet place that suits you. Work for a person who isn't a jackass and doesn't stress you out on purpose to get more out of you. Only work 40 hours a week. It is possible to have a work/life balance in any field, you just need to shop around. Money isn't everything, you should focus on yourself.
3. Put yourself first. Always think about yourself before others, don't ruin yourself by suffering through silly things for you employer or family. You have a commitment to your family, but you have to focus on your own well being first on order to be the best provider for your family.
I've seen both sides. Worked myself into the ground. Stressed out to the max. Had panic attacks. Wanted to just run away and disappear.
But i told a bunch of people to fuck off and leave me alone, i moved to a relaxing and beautiful part of the country, i work a 9 to 5 job (90%) of the time, my boss is chilled and relaxed. My house is always clean and quiet. Nobody ever gets to me anymore, i cannot remember the last time i was actually mad about something or someone. My GF understands my "let it go" mentality and has calmed down a lot too.
Also, learn to meditate. ;)
