Please, people, consider my advice: don't try to heal by yourself, look for medical help. When I was a kid (7 years old), my mom got depressed being a teacher in public schools of Brazil. I took decades to understand what happened, and till now I don't understand by complete. She was very religious and believed that she could heal by herself, using her faith. The result was that she got dived into a so strong depression (deep depression doctors called) that they friends just realized her problem when it aggravated, and she was observed having strange ideas and doing strange behaviors, like burning things. She was slowing entering into madness (I cry each time I remember this). Depression was cured by doctors help, but the sequels of trying to "hack" or heal by herself... Today she is not on depression anymore (she is not sad I mean), but has many sequels, all very difficult to treat and medicate, almost none improvements on this by decades. Strong headaches, labyrinthitis and other side effects all since this trauma. It's past 20 years already and it's not cured. Today, we don't have money to look for a good and paid doctor, and we are still trying the public hospitals of Brazil. I have a startup today, and I strive to monetize it, to be able to pay for high-quality treatments and travel with her to find good doctors and therapists despite her unprivileged location (small city), the kind of people that is really interested in deeply investigate the causes to heal her. I did not have concluded yet, if it's is so difficult and rare to threat it, or if we had just bad luck till now. As many people with depression, she though on suicide many times during the old hard days, and her religiosity and beliefs stopped her and gave strength from doing that. The curious here is that at the same time her faith was one of the causes of aggravating of her problem, also saved her from doing an extreme action (suicide). |
