I have suffered with deep depression since I was a young teenager
My psychiatrist told me that my brain doesn’t make enough serotonin
So I take 7 tablets 3 x a day so I can feel the energy and happiness like a normal person
Serotonin is part of the brains messenger system, the feel good chemical. 90% of it created in the gut it regulates mood, sleep, memory, digestion and the rest.
I still struggle with suicidal thoughts, I starve myself, I go back into that black hole and relive the trauma over and over.
It has and always will be an up and down journey, a battle which right now Im winning!
If you have any experience of depression, just know you are not alone no matter how alone you feel
Talk to someone, don’t do what I did! Its hurts you and all those who you love. I regret it everyday
