Before 'MOOO!' there were times when I was definitely at a low. I wasn't getting that much support from people around me.
I believe that everyone experiences depression to some degree at some time in their lives. And there are probably millions of people who live with a low level of sadness and heaviness day in and day out.
When I was drinking I was thinking I was having a good time but it came back twice as bad, the depression. It was just a vicious circle - drinking, not caring about myself - and it gave me a bad low.
We all relate to having highs and lows. Everyone gets depressed.
I had slumps that lasted into the winter.
Oh yes, I certainly have low days. I feel that in treating the depression, it's not so much that I've become happier as it is that I can be unhappy in better ways.
I'm much more prone to feeling down a lot. I just feel sluggish and unmotivated.
Why were you feeling low? Why does anyone? It creeps up on you from time to time.
I've been riding on the crest of a slump lately.
I'll always have to force myself to see the positive, because I'm wired badly, I'd say. I'm just naturally a bit under, a bit depressed.
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.
I seem to be able to get depressed quite easily without any reason.
I write a lot when I'm feeling bummed, but other times, you get locked in, and it's totally personal. If you're really low and writing, you're not thinking about anybody at all.
I think a certain amount of depression is sort of a normal state of mind to have. Deep depression is another story - and I wouldn't say I've been quite there, but you know I have been quite down at times, I have not wanted to leave the house for days on end.
Believe me there are days when I don't feel great.
Nobody is immune to feeling depressed.
There are different levels of depression - when I got low, I got really, really low.
I am profoundly in the D's - discouraged, depressed, disheartened, disgusted.
I had had some months of depression. Not serious enough to keep me from work. So, I guess you'd call that a mild depression.
I've definitely had times in my life where I've been depressed and not able to do anything at all.
Many of depression's symptoms - exhaustion, insomnia, nausea, headaches, weight loss, weight gain - are physical ailments.
It wasn't like I was clinically depressed, but I was so down. I think I was probably depressed. Nothing went my way since college, and I put my head down and kind of pitied myself. That wasn't the right way to go.
The field was wet, the lane was wet, and the spirits of my mechanic and helper were damp.
I have my moments when I am down and low. But I gather myself when decisions are to be taken.
Once you get depressed, you don't really feel like doing anything. You're kind of discouraged about yourself, and then the weight gain, too, or that makes me more depressed.
