Depression
Hi my name is Jon I am from Ireland I am 42 years old who suffers from Anxiety and depression so i am here amongst my fellow miners to talk about it.
It developed about 2 years ago when i was shopping by myself in a local supermarket where I felt kinda lightheaded and collapsed, I was ok as soon as i got air these series of dizzy spells continued so went to doctors and he said they were panic attacks. I am much better now since i got prescribed medication and found the love of my life he makes me so happy and I love him dearly. Anyway i was physically abused by my father at a young age used to pick on me and hit me for no reason also i was sexually abused by my head master at school so alot of this anxiety only coming out now in me but getting better. No matter what situation you have been in Mental health is amongst us all but hidden under the carpet my partner Stephen has helped me so much about talking about this we have helped each other as he has had a few issues in his life but everyday we grow stronger together so if anyone is feeling like this please message me or comment as would love to help others just like Stephen helped me this is my first story and feel great talking about it I am not ashamed I am only human. Love, Peace & Happiness.
I can relate to the panic attacks, though perhaps not triggered by the same experiences, I've always had a little anxiety and have most surely experienced my fair share of depression through my life. It does get better, if you want it to get better. Welcome to Steemit!
Thank you Tommy for nice message hope your ok now I want to get better so bad so i can actually work again Ive started looking which is good so up and onwards
I have found the diversity of jobs online to be a good thing for me, since I prefer to work under little supervision and my hours are a little weird. Online I can have as many attacks as I want and they are not as bad because since there is no people around the preassure is less. Not having people around while you are working can also be bad, so finding balance is key. But even if it's a little lonely from time to time I prefer to work from home. I would suggest upwork.com since that's the agency I have most experience with. If you can communicate you can find work without leaving your house, or you could make the world your office.
A lot of my depression comes from feeling like I am not moving, monotony can literally hurt. At the same time I enjoy the rituals that I create for myself, which are monotonous but that's my own monotomy haha. People are weird in their contradictions. One of the reasons why I enjoy working on the internet is because my world is a little bigger as my office extends as far as internet services can reach so I don't feel as trapped.
Nice one very inspiring I dont like crowds i feel the same way thats why i recently started trying to mine cryptos and make some sort of living sometimes i feel lost because i dont know what direction to take i do feel social media has been good for me keeps you intouch with life but to trust people is my problem as so many people out there just want to back stab or bitch etc
It's hard to trust people when you've been hurt before, but how many have you hurt unintentionally? When I walk into a new relationship or any interaction with another person I assume I will get hurt, but I also assume it will probably be unintentionally and that somehow helps me not to take it as a personal attack which in turn helps me in looking at it from a different perspective.
Overtime I have come to see people's actions as a reflexion of themselves, not necessarily as a reflexion of me. Things seem to be clearer for me when I take this approach.
Crypto is the future, there sure is money in it. But you are going to have to work hard to benefit from this. Steemit is an excellent place to become aware of the many options available to profit from this technology. Take a look around, I am sure you can find some inspiration here :)
