Depression doesnt care if you are rich or poor, young or old. Your friends/family/work collegues might not even know, and they might even question it if you told them. saying things like “youve got everything going for you” or “pull yourself together”. Trouble is, if it were that easy you would have “pulled yourself together” Its not about what you have or have not got, what you have lost or gained. Its all about what you perceive. If YOU think everything is bad and there is no way out then whether it is fact or not, to YOU it is fact! Remember that EMOTION is not always FACT. and however hopeless and out of control things may seem. It is just for a season. You will get through this. You will get through this! EMOTiON is not always FACT.
I hope you enjoy this piece of music I have composed. A lot of thought has gone into it, and my intention whilst writing, recording and editing this tune was and is for just YOU to turn helplessness into hope. I hope with all my heart that I have succeded. Please rate and comment. Never ever give up!
This is a musical experiment. I know that when you feel low if someone were to talk to you all bubbly and happy it would not help you, that person needs to bring themselves “temporarily” to your level to gain rapport and show understaning of what you are going through, they then need to gradually bring you out of your low mood, very carefully, in small steps not large. This tune I have composed tries to do this by music. It starts off quite sad and thereofore I hope on the same wavelength as the listener. It then slowly and carefully progresses on to much more positive chord sequences, speeding up in pace just enough to awaken the fight in you, then ends by being slowed down but with positive chords and notes. I would be very interested to see if this helps someone. My theory of building rapport, showing empathy, slowly being more positive, all without words is an experiment that I hope provides comfort. If just one person gains something positive from this then I am happy. Never give up!

‘Our body grows up …
‘Our body grows up with time but our mind grows with experience.’ ? Is it true that it’s like that? Is it true that the obstacles in life might actually be isting you to grow up? Is it true that there might not be limits to growing up?

The areas in our …
The areas in our lives where it hurts are the areas we have work to do on ourselves. So don’t run from hard times. Go through them as the hero in your own story and grab that brass ring as you go around. You will gain wisdom this way.
Life is like a child….just because it becomes difficult doesn’t mean you stop loving it.
—-bipolar and on meds, no longer suicidal and loving life.

“Without bad, what makes good, good?”
Is something I live my life by, and hope others will see its true meaning. Just have faith, and hope for the best.

No, comitting …
No, comitting suicide is definitely not the way out. We cannot live without both “good” and “bad” times, this is the LIFE. No one`s ever happy or sad for very long. So, just BELIEVE that whatever happens – is just the way as it should be, even if its bad. Because even “bad” things can turn into “good” !!!! And we can learn a lot from that….!!!!!! BE OPTIMISTIC AND STRONG!!!!!!!

Well, something luckily has changed…but sometimes the sadness comes back…it’s very difficult when the girl that you love (she’s not yet my girlfriend) suffer really from depression…it’s difficult to keep in contact with her…when she’s says that she’ s not streght enough to answer to a phone call because she’s depressed
