Please guys someone help me. I'll try my best to explain what's going on since last 3 years. So my mom is depressed (I think). she's always upset and doesn't feel like doing anything. I am currently working from home and on my break all I hear from her is how she cant do anything. she has stopped talking to people, everything stresses her out. She don't wanna go out and don't wanna stay in as well. She don't wanna cook and if we say it's okay if she doesn't feel like cooking she gets mad that she can't do anything. We tried everything but I am unable to help her. I offered to listen and she talks all the time about how she's frustrated but nothing helps her. I don't know what to do. She gets stressed out about every small thing and ends up doing nothing all day. She's always upset and nothing makes her happy anymore. What should I do? Please don't ask me to be there for her cause I am always there and that hasn't helped at all. We live in a very small town so there's no mental health docs nearby. I offered to take her to a nearby city and go see a therapist but she doesn't wat to do that cause she don't want people to think she's crazy. I tried to reason but nothing helped. I also don't earn a lot to actually afford a good therapist. I am lost, I can't do this anymore. I don't have anyone to talk to and i really need help. please tell me what can I do?? Please someone help me.

Replymake her to meditate and get peace from inside, and day by day make her to do small small things.
ReplyOk. Sounds like your mom has given up and has lost all hope. She is not alone. More people feel like that than you realize or what she realizes.
I kind of battle with that at times. When a person has many life defeats, that cascade for an extending amount of time, accompanied along with stress. It takes its toll, emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually.
They now have Virtual Therapists (online). I have been investigating them a bit. Whether it's a Therapist, Psychotherapy, Nurse practitioner who is a counselor. Psychologist, Psychiatrist, etc.
The fees are very reasonable, too.
She really needs to see someone. It is like she feels as if she has fallen into a whole, and she can't get out of it. I know what that feels like too personally.
You can google it. You can find one in your area too.
Besides that, I have a suggestion.
Both of you can listen via YouTube or find an app that has podcasts of your choosing.
Listen or find Dr. Joe Dispenza. He is an international lecturer, author, and researcher in the field of Quantum Physics. It has to do with Neuroscience. He is incredible, and he presents this in a very engaging manner. Just listen for 5 minutes. It will expand your thinking in a very profound way. When I listen to him, I play his YouTube videos 5 times each and take notes to get a grasp of the reality of what he is saying. It is also entertaining in his delivery. Try it.
