Anyone in your family depressed?
I am one of four children and believe that at least two of my siblings are depressed. I'm the only one getting treatment. We don't discuss it. It makes me sad that there is such a stigma that we can't be open with one another. Anyone else have siblings that are depressed? Can you discuss depression with them?
No. I'm just the one who had to watch their garbage. They are all too crazy to be depressed
two of my uncles suffer from major depression but I don't talk to them about it except when we're all very drunk and in pity mode lol
depression goes way back in my family.
I don't have any siblings, but I have a husband who self-medicates w/alcohol..His whole family has suffered from mood disorders at times, but none of them has ever sought any kind of treatment.
my dad, and two brothers have both had some form of depression. My dad also has manic depression.
depression goes way back in my family too and everyone still wants to deny it even exists..still
my mom was depressed...she is currently on medication as am I
My whole family has the crazies. Just different kinds. The best we can hope for is that maybe if we put our heads together we can equal one sane person. :P
How many self medicate? My brother and father abuse alcohol.
Mostly mine don't. I think they are so used to crazy they don't notice anymore. There is an alcoholic streak in the genes, but nobody in the last few generations qualifies as one. I medicate with natural remedies and meditations since I can't afford Rxs.
