hi all..
i just wonder if anyone ever feels the way i felt yesterday...
i was out on the night with few girlfriends and we were having a great time,when then suddenly i just felt like this something has overcame me,i didnt get up and dance like the rest of them but sat there and coulnt even move,i felt realy sad and didnt know why,had tears in my eyes,which i had to hide..and just sat there..feeling depressed and horrible for no reason,i am generaly happy person,have no relationship problems or anything which could cause this..i do suffer from candida,and read few articles about people with severe candida syndroms feeling depressed and weak..but i have been on a diet for about 3 months now and it shouldnt realy get worse with the time,or could it?
Anyone,any ideas?
Many thanks.

RE: Sudden moment of depression
Hi Monika,
Feeling depressed, having mood swings and all those sorts of things happens to everybody and, unfortunately, it's not easily possible to just pinpoint it down to any one particular thing.
For some people, the changes are subtle or come on gradually over time, whilst for others, they can be very sudden as you yourself experienced, and the level to which peoples mood changes can be subtle or very large depending on the person and the other factors. It could have been a change in hormone levels which could be caused by any number of things, time of the month, what food you've eaten (or even not eaten), stress, tiredness from work etc. etc.
If it's something that you notice keeps happening, it may be worth trying to keep note of what's happened in the time leading up to it, and see if there is a common factor i.e. type of food, lack of drink, lack of sleep the night before etc. and once you narrow it down you'll know where to start tackling the issue.
Love and Reiki Hugs

Hiya!
Can I ask-I know you said you were out with the girls-where you drinking alcohol?
I have felt like this when Ive had a drink. I can sort of remove myself from situations and become isolated.
It doesnt happen very often but it has happened before.

RE: Sudden moment of depression
Thank you both for your advise,

Thanks so much again...take care.

RE: Sudden moment of depression
I've had thisa few times - once after a reiki session. It's not nice but doesn't last long. I wouldn't say its the same as depression. As has been said before different things may trigger it with different people. Try not to worry too much though.
RE: Sudden moment of depression
Hmm I had a similar experience last week, all of a sudden I just wasn't all there. The feeling I was experiencing was not a good one and it knocked me out of sync for a few days, made me paranoid and i'm still not back to 100%.
I think what happened to me may have something to do with lack of exposure to direct sunlight, which is something I have in no way been getting enough of over the last 3 months. I'm making a concerted effort to rise early and spend as much time as I can in direct sunlight, im eating better, drinking more water and doing more excercise.
I'm still going to see a doctor to see if they can help me get to the bottom of what I experienced but I will not be taking any drugs from him, I'd much rather be referred for acupuncture or some other form of holistic therapy. I have also being giving myself more reiki than I ever have in my life haha (reiki is amazing, its like a hug from god)
I would say to be positive, try not to let your thoughts run away with you and remember to relax. Being around friends and doing "usual" things seems to help me get back into myself and doing things you enjoy provides a welcome distraction from any unwelcome thoughts which may appear.
