I do one cycle of Qigong a week and it helps me to feel good. I have been seeing a therapist for a couple of months, and he made some comments that really made me think.
I experienced severe depression as a child but I was able to overcome it and have been able to live a relatively normal life. The therapist said that from our conversations that he was certain that I have been living my whole life with chronic depression. He said that even though I felt normal, that he felt that I didn't have anything to compare it to. He wants me to agree to getting an anti-depression perscription. I am not keen on the idea of taking medications. I feel like I am used to the way I feel and getting by, I don't want to have side-effects, or to act weird.
Is there anyone on the board who has had an experience with Qigong helping them or someone they know with depression?
thanks
