donaldstott 0 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Depressed... according to the doctor Ignore him / her....Theres no such thing as depression. Read Tony Robbins. One of the most successful experiences took place some years ago with a group of patientsdiagnosed with clinical depression (one of the most profound forms of depression) for some time. What the researchers did was put this group of people over a period of 10 minutes per day in a room with mirrors 360 degrees. During that time they asked them to put the biggest smile in the world. The exercise was repeated for 21 days and then the results were evaluated. The success was truly inspiring. More than 60% of patients were no longer depressed and the majority of the remaining sample stopped taking medication. There you go Craig, all you have to do is fill a room of your house with mirrors, then gurn at yourself all day- ffs.............. Hope things perk up for you soon. Ignore the window cleaner Craig...... Get the book, awaken the giant within (ebay a few quid or pm me your adress and I'll send you mine) think you can even download it now. Lots of sceptics but it will sort you out, guaranteed. A rather simplistic approach. The issue being depression will pretty much strip you of the motivation to do anything, let alone read a book and help yourself. Don't get me wrong Tony Robbins is fantastic, I've been to his seminars and he has the ability to make a real difference (whether it's lasting is a different question). Like most things though unless you want to help yourself there is little that anyone else can do. I went to see a hypnotherapist and he helped me come through a low-point. The missus used to be on anti-depressants and my advice would be to avoid them if possible - very addictive and lead to quite horrid mood swings. Regardless, Good luck Craig.

The Fish 10857 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 (edited) I'm a little tipsy Re: the "there's no such thing as depression" I'll say this. Shut up CT you're simplifying an incredibly complex issue into a sound bite without any consideration of the underlying history. Hope things improve Craig, but don't for the love of God, don't surround yourself with mirrors (that's sure to push you over the edge ) Edited May 18, 2010 by The Fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
