  1. i'm a depressive but i don't hate myself. my depression is caused from external sources not internal ones. i once had a therapist who told me ALL depressives hate themselves and she spent weeks trying to convince me that i hate myself and all my problems are caused BY ME! man, did she get mad when i continued to resist her lies. why would i hate myself? - i'm the best friend i got. i'm extremely ethical, very smart (smarter than any therapist i ever had), funny, dependable, loyal, honest and i have great taste in music and movies. and i don't cause my problems, my problems are caused by predators and idiots who keep interfering in and screwing up my life. as far as i'm concerned the problem with depression in this country IS THE mental health industry. i'm not allowed to see an actual psychiatrist, they price themselves out of reach of 90% of those who could use them, the therapists i've had have been irresponsible and incompetent, at best, and the industry has shifted from "therapy" to pushing PILLS as the cure all for all your problems. its sickening as hell.

  3. i'm a depressive and suffer from ptsd and i once had a therapist who told me if i was a depressive i HAD to hate myself. i kept telling her the truth, i don't hate myself. quite the opposite in fact. what i "hate," what causes my depression is the abuse i recieve from others. and the horrible state of the world. the germans have a word for it; "weltschmerz." it means world pain. but the therapist persisted like she was trying to convince me to hate myself. but, quite frankly, i'm too smart for that. i didn't go back to that therapist. it's sad when the patient knows more than the "expert." which is something i experience all the time. one thing i know. i desrve a helluva lot better treatment and respect than what most others offer me. i think that's true for 90% of humanity. thanks for the wonderful video.
