Morrissey on depression:
"there is no one who can tell me anything about it, and there is nobody who can help me."
Rokybird says:Chronic endogenous severe Depression is a bio chemical disorder of the brain without a cure or effective treatment. Nothing will touch it. Not meditation or hope, which is just a form of self delusion, can touch it. Not a beautiful day, not a beautiful child. POst partum Depression sends mothers into sanatoriums all the time. Sometimes they kill themselves or their kids.
Rokybird says: After 45 years of Depression I know very little about it. I know certain things make it worse; food allergies ,mercury poisoning,toxic metals, food additives ,vitamin deficiencies.
A few things may be helpful;such as vitamins,or exercising but even that can be limited.
Real meditation which is not the candy store version hyped everywhere does not cure it. Even sitting in front of an Enlightend Being doesnt cure it.
I think it is bio chemical disorder of the happiness center in the brain not a psychological disorder. anti depressants just make one feel numb.
No supplement that I have tried has cured it.
If your nutritionist gives you a long list of supplements to take they are just guessing at best or con men at worst.
MOrrisey:
a few quotes:
Some people say depression is your art.
I think it makes me extraordinarily unique. Who on earth would want to be Van Halen?
Ever fancied Prozac?
I know little about Prozac. I've tried it of course. We all have. But it just didn't work for me. So there's no appeal in something that doesn't work.
Have you every been in analysis, Morrissey?
"I have, yes, many a time, and left in extreme disgust. I find the billing unrewarding, certainly. But I have been steeped in personal depression for so long that I feel there is nothing any doctor or psychoanalyst can say to me. I know all about depression and the weakening of the human spirit and struggle, and there is no one who can tell me anything about it, and there is nobody who can help me."
Were you happier as a teenager?
No, I was never happy then. Not for one day. But I think I've probably touched upon that in the past. I've mentioned it somewhere! I never thought it was possible to get this old. I thought when you reached 35, you were shipped off to Anglesey. But I don't want to go back. There's nothing happy there for me. I'm getting happier as I get older but that's
sheer perseverance. I've just stuck with it. I never enjoyed life in my twenties, not one minute of it. It was a test of endurance that I'm surprised I survived. Professionaly, of course, I was doing very well but personally it couldn't have been worse or more difficult for me if I'd been living in a mud hut in Leeds.
Do you feel loneliness even though you could easily be surrounded by people?
Yes I do, because loneliness has nothing to do with how many people are in the room with you. I'm now thirty-three, which is not young, and I feel I'm just a very lonely person, and will remain so.
