Symptoms of Clinical Depression. More Information.

Could You Fit the Definition of Being Clinically Depressed? For More Information Read This Article!

This article discusses the symptoms of clinical depression as well as how to detect whether you have this ailment or not.

When discussing clinical depression, one important point that must be discussed is that it includes a number of quite contradictory symptoms. As an example, the inability to fall asleep or sleep all night is associated with depression. This is commonly known as insomnia. On the other hand, a depressed individual may suffer from “hypersomnia” or sleeping too much.

Another distressing symptom of depression is the loss of your appetite. However, it should not be mixed up with anorexia which is an ailment distinguished by a twisted view of one’s own body. An anorexic who is in actuality extremely thin, looks at herself as being obese. It is essential to note the difference between lack of appetite and anorexia. This is another situation that illustrates the contradictory nature of depression symptoms, and that is that a depressed person commonly develops into an over-eater.

Frequent episodes of crying or sobbing can also signal depression. When this happens, it is critical to recognize that the crying and sobbing has nothing to do with a sorrowful life experience like the passing of a loved person. In this instance, it is not atypical for the clinically depressed individual to really not know what he or she is crying about.

WHY IS BONAIREGREATESCAPE LOOKING FOR DONATIONS/SUPPORT?

In a sane, rational world there would be no need for health education and information
We could go to our doctor and received unbiased up-to-the-minute information on ALL KINDS OF THERAPIES.
Unfortunately at this time in our evolution this is not the case.
The huge Medical/Pharmacartel are determined to protect their PROFITS NO MATTER HOW MANY DEATHS THAT MAY CAUSE. (it would be called genocide if the truth were known)
In spite of this fact millions of people pass the responsibility for their healthcare to their doctor and expect that they will be looked after. The truth is that today’s doctor is not able to give unbiased advice because his/her living is dependent on ‘following the herd’; it is not possible for a doctor to recommend anything other than the standard treatments (no matter how ineffective they may be) and keep his/her job. It is not possible for anyone in cancer ‘research’ to do anything other than chase the impossible silver bullet treatment, otherwise he/she will be out of a job. The funding will stop. So, unless a doctor or researcher is guided by his/her heart rather than their bank balance there is no chance that there will ever be a successful cancer treatment.
A recognised successful treatment has been available since 1834 and a new scientifically based treatment was recorded in February of this year. So the treatments do exist to ELIMINATE CANCER AND HEART ATTACK AS ‘KILLER DISEASES.
The question is how many people know about these treatments and how many are prepared to stand up to their Consultant or Oncologist and say (what I had to say) NO THANK YOU.
(Statistically you will live longer with NO TREATMENT than you will with the Treatment of Choice)
How many people can listen to the dire prognostications from their ’specialist’ and say ‘Sorry, it’s not for me. I’ll take my chances. If I am going to die I will die whole rather than in pieces. I’ll die with dignity. I’ll trust that a power far greater than me will guide and protect me. I will not accept an operation that removes parts of my body. I will not submit to chemotherapy which destroys my immune system and leaves me defenceless against germs and viruses. I will not submit to radiation treatment which CAUSES CANCER. No thank you. If it’s my time to go I’ll go out the way I came in, whole and holy, and if I choose to, I will seek other opinions and take advice from an unbiased source. I will reclaim my right to look after my own body in any way I see fit.
How many will stand up for themselves?
