A meaningful dialogue about approaching depression
He says:
One of my biggest “pet peeves” (to put it nicely) is when people say “Just get over it”. I believe depression is a manifestation of much greater issues that need to be resolved. Medication may help us cope, but until we get to the core of the matter depression will always be with us. As you say, “depression is a manifestation of much greater issues that need to be resolved”
My answer:
If we want to come to grips with what depression is, we got to have the courage to examine in-depth. And alas, even the so-called great authorities on this subject-matter fail to reach the real Cause, due to fear… Indeed, we try to compensate this fear and inability to see, through medication…
So it´s kind of a very insidious and perilous journey one is pursuing…Dante had Virgil, we have no one…There is no guidance, one gropes in darkness with intuition as the only weapon…For sure, on the way one encounters scary inner realities no one wants to acknowledge or look at, things which are dismissed as far-fetched or totally phony… yet this apparent nonsense, is going to be tomorrow´s truth.
That is why I am very grateful to meet a fellow treading the same way.

About julienmatei
I feel un inner urge to express what I see, to communicate and share with others all these impressions. Often the things I see are there, not yet manifest, but waiting... to be observed, talked about, and embraced.
These new insights need another approach, a more vivid curiosity...
Due to fear and prejudice we prefere to see only "the offcial " truth - but THE OFFICIAL TRUTH IS DEAD - being dead, it has nothing to give...
We can continue pretending Death is fascinating or...we can take the trouble to LIVE...
THE NEW has no definition yet...
Again, IT requires another "perception", the courage to apprehend everything differently, from a totally new angle, with new confidence and inquisitive touch. This blogg is not about interesting concepts, it is about participation...finding new solutions, inspiration, togetherness..
