My husband
suffers from acute clinical depression. We are working on getting him off 3 Prozac and 2 uptake inhibitors a day. (After liver flushing, colon cleansing, etc...he is down to just one Prozac a day...)
This is how he describes it. Walking down the street, he feels like he is disconnected from his body, like an out of body experience. And then he is sad because he is sure that most everyone can see this whole body disconnect. He feels awkward and out of control.
Imagine a day when you are feeling off...a bit depressed and disconnected.
Magnify this feeling about 10 times, and this is what a truly depressed person feels every single day. A real sense of hopelessness and helplessness. Like there is no happiness now, or in the future. It's like looking into a big black tunnel or despair, and that is your reality, and that is your future.
There is no real joy. Never, ever do you feel free to experience this.
Pretty sad, isn't it?
