    1) stay in the moment and think about the moment
    2) share your time, your talent, your energy, or anonymously give money to a worthy charity
    3) practice acting happy
    4) be organized
    5) spend a few minutes enjoying nature
    6) sing a song

    Do you have any prof that the Chemical brain exuce is false? No you dont r-tard… Stop acting like a fucking genius and open your fucking eyes.
    You’ve NEVER excperanced depression.
    But i sure has hell hope you do one day. What comes around goes around *** hole.
    You are only still a kid, it shows. Mabye when your older you wont be such an ***** who thinks he knows fucking everything.
    Come back with better evidence and stop making an *** out of yourself.

    ive met lots of people with depression for no reason, and the chemical in the brain excuse is bullshit considering tougher people arent pussies

  • 7 baqua55 // Feb 8, 2009 at 9:18 pm

    Dumbass,
    You cant prove something is fake without evidence.
    You’ve never felt depressed so you will never understand.
    being depressed is not acting like a ***** emo or telling everyone how your life *****. You’ve probably never even met someone who was depressed…

  • 8 ZoltanKH // Feb 9, 2009 at 2:33 pm

    i dont claim its fake, im just here to tell you the fact that it is fake.

  • 9 brandon4757 // Feb 11, 2009 at 10:39 pm

  • 10 baqua55 // Feb 12, 2009 at 10:37 am

    You right…
    Theres no point of me talking to an ignorant teenager who knows nothing about the fucking subject of depression. :D
    Resarch on a subject before you claim its fake.

  • 11 ZoltanKH // Feb 14, 2009 at 5:58 pm

  • 15 baqua55 // Feb 24, 2009 at 1:49 pm

    ZoltanKH,
    Theres a difference between beeing open minded and being a total ignorant ****** bag.
    Your probably some retard 15 year old who just hit fucking puberty. Quit making an *** out of yourself and get the **** off youtube.

    You deserve to have fucking AIDs.

    One thing is certain, that violent TV programs can cause depression in people.

    Other things that cause depression or can worsen it is the lack of basic social programs within a country. America today is one of the worst offenders by not providing health care to everyone, basic unemployment payments so people can love, free college, low crime, low TV violence, etc.

    Countries that provide these good social programs have much lower rates of depression.

    lol @ S.A.D sufferers (seasonal affective disorder)

    I wonder if they named it that on purpose

  • 20 courtez09 // Mar 8, 2009 at 9:20 pm

    lol. i like your thinking

  • 21 courtez09 // Mar 11, 2009 at 9:17 am

    i dont think you’re too scared, i think you just wanna live. i mean think about it…the true depressive isn’t scared of anything because they don’t value themselves.
    You know, i was thinking about that the other day, I used to say i **** myself. But in your entire life, theres only 1 person guaranteed thats gonna be with you the entire time…and its you. So you may as well try and like you, eh?

  • 22 SILIEIEIK // Mar 12, 2009 at 6:12 pm

    same and im 18 but felt like this for years

  • 23 lee155912000 // Mar 12, 2009 at 6:44 pm

    I do that too

  • 24 lee155912000 // Mar 12, 2009 at 7:32 pm

    I feel worthless too
    and I have thought about ending myself but liek you I’m to fucking scared to it

    I have no self confidence I can only fake to be a little bit confident around my family and close friends I feel like a piece of ****
    I’m 17 and I **** myself

    I suffer from Panic disorder and agoraphobia, and I would ask that you make these very informative videos a little less depressing themselves.
