I've got an appointment next week with my GP to see If I have depression. (In the UK)

Is there anything I shouldn't disclose?

Are you a virgin?

Well not unless you're serious about getting help! Although saying that, Perhaps it'd be a good idea to not mention your Hentai addiction.

tell him everything if you want help. unless you're a danger to yourself/others they won't lock you up but offer you meds. then again, I'd disclose that anyways to make sure I'm safe.

No, I'm 20 this year and a Uni student.

Uni? that explains a lot.

I have thoughts about suicide but I wouldn't act on them. Only if I was in a position where I know I'd be fucked for the rest of my life.

I used to socialize and go out drinking. Even went to Spain with the "lads" but for some reason, I've gotten depressed over the past year and a half. I hate talking to people now as it feels like I'm wasting my time.

I've just failed my Unversity course because all I did was lie in bed and sleep. I had no energy. I want to get up and do things but I can't. I did nothing, just lied in bed and all my hobbies became boring.

For like 3 months I just lied in bed. I didn't eat for days sometimes as I just couldn't be bothered anymore. A lot of people have said I've changed.

Also I'm not a virgin thanks for asking though.

The pic was just something I had on my desktop.

Thanks again for any advice.

You should definitely disclose that you hate Jews and think psychiatry is a Zionist scheme.

Most GP's in this country aren't trained in mental health, over diagnosis of depression is a huge issue here.

You're better off seeing a clinical psychologist or metal health specialist, unless of course you just want to be diagnosed so that you can say you have depression because it seems to be fashionable at uni these days.

Op -
Honestly, I'm very right wing and hate the "depression" trend. I always thought it was some made up shit (I know people actually have it).

I know a lot of people go "Ugh I've got depression" and are basically lying. That's why I want help just to get out of this slump I'm in. I've talked to people and they just recommend seeing a professional.

Thanks again for the help!

Anyone here actually have depression and would be willing to give me signs?

How autistic do you have to be to need a doctor to tell you if you have depression or not

Cause I don't want to make a false assumption and self diagnose myself. Seems smart to get a medical opinion from someone smarter medically than myself.

It should be obvious to you if you're depressed. That's like walking into a restaurant and asking the guy behind the counter if you're hungry or not.

quads confirm

thread closed i guess

Whatever you do, don't get prescribed an SSRI.
That will not help with suicidal thoughts

If you really want to.
Micro-dosing LSD will cure depression.
Did it 7 years ago, zero relapses.

A quad, then three dubs in a row.
Dang.

I went to GP in march about growing depression, put me on citalopram 20mg and been great since. First week on it can be tough but will change your life afterwards.

Don't talk to people about depression who've never had it because they can't understand it. You often get this patter of "oh go to the gym it releases endorphins hurr durr" that kinda shite. Talk with your gp and maybe find a councillor and you are golden.

so you're not a uni student then, you're a failed uni student. And in the UK of all places lol

it will make your rates go up/ you will lose sovereign rights.

the entire psych industry is feminist.
take your pills whatever they are and enjoy your slow ride to suicide.

This is anecdotal because fluoxetine 40mg prescribed by my doctor pretty much stopped my intrusive erratic thoughts, most of which were causing my suicidal episodes.

The only real issue with SSRIs are that they give you blood pressure problems if you drink or smoke weed. Also no psychadelics while you're on them.

Some do help though, depending on the reasons for your depression/trauma
