Description
GET IT? 'CAUSE THE OLD SAYING, "DEPRESSION HURTS?" SEE WHAT I DID THERE?Are you, or is someone you know suffering from hiccups?
If you notice the signs of hiccups, get help.
These past few weeks, I feel like I've been slipping.
I can't control my emotions, and it's becoming harder to keep my temper down at work. This has never been a problem for me before, until recently. I've broken down at work a few times now, and I keep needing to LEAVE work because I feel like I could hurt someone. This is scary!
I feel fine one moment, and in the next, for no reason, I feel a wave of emotions come on. I try to rationalize with myself and think "man, there's nothing going on, just do your damn work," but I just can't keep it down. I get red, and I start shaking and crying and no matter how hard I try, I can't stop. It gets worse every single day, and I can no longer function at work.
There is absolutely something wrong with me, there's no mistake, and so I scheduled an appointment with a professional exactly one week from today.
My gosh, this is all coming out of nowhere.
I really hope I'm going to be okay...
Oh yes, and I actually made an OC comic.
How 'bout that?

There are a multitude of options for this mental stick in the mud (yes I said mental, deal with it). First, take a look at your situation such as your job. It could just be the work environment that is just not for you. Two your financial situation, it can possible be your living standards as well as the actual costs for such a location. Three, social life. Now I am not saying that there is anything wrong with you liking a girl's show. But, you should look around at the society that surrounds you other than these online chat rooms and comment sections. They will probably criticize or alienate you for what you like individually. I mean, you're a brony for crying out loud. You dug your own grave of fear, paranoia, acceptance to society, and yes depression. I hate to break it to you, but the world is an unfair place. Either you change with the tide of the world or die trying to go against it. So man up and get back out there.

PLease don't stop loooking for the light and if you feel as if you've been slipping, remember that you are amazing at what you do and many people, including me, look up to you. And since someone asked, I will also insert a virtual hug.Β Β

-Ah, my knee! This is the worst thing to ever happen

Dudel, if you need a hug and a head that's always screaming, lemme know. I got you.

I went through similar problems, but with the right help it will get better. Having good people around you is also very helpful.
Hope it get's better for you. You'll be in my prayers.Β

I used to have depression, but now I don't thanks to pills. Lots and lots of pills. Good God my life is meaningless.

but if depresion is worse, then what is it if you have both? the worst?

Don't tell me you got a... uh... mental problem or something?

That is almost exactly me in pony form... including the depression...

Depression.
The worst problem in my life.

Depression is worse...take it to someone who cares! Just because your life stinks, Mr. Worthles-One-Shot-OC, doesn't mean you should spread it around.

It's true, depression is worse than hiccups.
I hope you get better soon. When I was going through depression, writing some stories helped me.

First up: funny comic. It's awkward and uncomfortable and occasionally I like that sort of anti-punchline. Reminds me a bit of that old gag where you ask someone, "Hey, what's worse than X?" "I dunno. What?" "The Holocaust." And they either gape at you or laugh at how horrible that joke really is. But this isn't quite as wrong and still damn funny.
Secondly: I think it's really brave and also a good sign that you're talking about the problems. I've very recently had some strange turns in my moods and, given my family history, I have a suspicion that I might have some... symptoms of my own. I'm not ready to say the D-word yet. But since you posted this comic I assume you've met with that professional. You're a really funny guy and I think a lot of us jokers often paradoxically have these kinds of issues and nobody really gets it because we always seem so damn upbeat (forgive me if I'm projecting more than I should).
The point is, you're doing something about it, you're not letting it go unabated, and that tells me that you ARE going to be okay.

Lol, that one pony is like every generic OC who has the super depressing backstory and is depressed all the time XD
π: 0 β©: 0
Damn, that'd be awkward.
Have you tried seeing a psychiatrist? Psychologist? Any professional help?

While I can't offer any real advice, just try to remember all the people who love and respect you for being yourself.
I hope your appointment fulfills its purpose.

Why is it that it is my favorite artists on here that is suffering from something like depression? ;_;
π: 0 β©: 0
I'm glad you are going to see someone. I struggle with depression myself, and have for my whole life. I resisted getting help for many years until I finally got it into my head that needing talk therapy or drugs is no more a shame or a personal failing than a diabetic needing insulin. If your brain isn't working right, there are people who can help you fix it, or at least try. I hope it goes well.
Also, the comic is still funny in a dark sort of way.

YAY! OC comic!
I know I'm a little late to the support party, but I felt I still needed to give my two cents.
It's very mature of you to be aware enough to seek professional help on this. People aren't usually so aware of the danger. And I'm sure you'll be fine, especially since the meeting was several weeks ago now and you don't appear to have posted a journal lamenting a downward spiral into unrestrained bloody violence!

I remember when I used to get intense panic attacks as a little kid. It was very confusing and scary not knowing what was happening with your body. I'm glad you decided to seek help, that's always the first step to recovery. My best wishes to you and I hope you feel in a better state of mind soon

I know I might be some tacky 13 year old and usually my age is brought with the stereotypes of being narrow minded and selfish. But I try not to be like that, sometimes I slip tho. Anywho this ain't about me. I know I don't even know you, but I care for every single human being because every life matters, sorry if this is cheesy. I just wanted you to know or anyone to know, send me a note cause I want to make a difference to someone's day to show them that I care. And this isn't coming from some 13 year old who is sad over some phone crap thing she didn't get, no i've been suffering with this mental problem for at least 2 and a half years. I want to make myself better by making others better. So yeah... *cough* Hiccups? Β

Cute comic.
And I hope you're okay too.

Shit man... I'm really sorry to hear that. I'm glad to hear that you're getting help for it though. Hope you feel better real quickly!

Awkward! 
By the way, donΒ΄t worry. IΒ΄m sure everything will be alright. IΒ΄ve been where you are, or at least I think so. ItΒ΄s all a matter of time, although some exterior help is always welcomed. On my own, it took me a few months to overcome that depression, but I did. With professional help, someone with a mind as active as yours should be fine in no time!

Stress is a big contributor. I have technically-kinda genetic depression. Well... I'm super prone to it. I have to take medicine that lowers my anxiety which usually causes it. I've seen and lived with it enough to know how to handle it. If anything... Be around family/friends that make you feel better and appreciated. Also as I've read before... Smoking the weedles can help make depression and anxiety worse. Not saying you should stop, that's your choice, but that could be a contributor as well. If anything just be around loved ones. NEVER be alone when you are depressed. It makes it worse.

You will. If someone like me can trudge through it to the other side, you can too. If you ever need to talk or just vent, pm me dude. I'll do everything I can to help.

*DIGITAL HUG* Β You have brought me so much joy. Β You have brought so many joy. Β I don't know if that will help you in anyway. Β I hope it makes you feel better know what you have given to others. Β I know it helps me. Β Every time I make someone laugh or lighten there day. Β It makes me feel better. Β It's not a cure all, but keeps me going. Β
I hope you find your path that makes you someone you want to be. Β It will be a tough road to walk, but at least it seems like you won't be alone. Β

Dude...
Well: making it to a psi ward and spending a month there was the lowest point of my life, but feel happy: when you are at your lowest, there's no direction remaining but up!

It can be scary to be on both ends of uncontrolled emotions, because you don't want to hurt people or scare them, and just as well, you become afraid of what you mightΒ do. Whatever the cause, I hope you find out what it is and get better soon!

I'm glad you scheduled an appointment. That was one of the wisest things you could have done for yourself.
Some people are going to give you anecdotes about their trials through depression and pain here. I won't bore you with mine, except that I will say EVERYBODY deals with some sort of emotional/ mental problem. We all deal with these strange problems, so don't feel like you're alone. Most people will go out of their way to help you.Β
If you need a person to talk to (albeit, a complete stranger nonetheless) please don't hesitate to talk to me.
Get better man, and maybe you don't believe in this sort stuff but I'll pray for you.

Good luck...We're here for you & we certainly don't want to lose you!

After reading the comic I was like, haha, that's Β cruel kind of humor that's kind of an understood joke that is kinda funny, but doesn't inquire a whole laugh.
After reading the description, I was like BRUH. I hope you get better, remember that we all support you! ^_^

It's good you scheduled an appointment with someone to talk to. Β I hope that helps.

I'm suicidal myself, so I know how that depression hurts. It hurts a lot. Hang in there. Things will get easier.

It does hurt...

I did something like that at work last night.
On of my coworkers was talking about how she can't turn to strenuously because of her back, and I was like "Yeah, I hear ya, my back's been hurting too lately. Probably pulled it yesterday or something" and she says "Well I've got a slipped disc, so I can't do anything too strenuous at risk of going to the hospital."
"Oh... yeah that sounds... much worse."
Anyway, hope you get the help you need, dude. Depression blows ass. The fact that you managed to get a comic is done in your state is impressive, though. I can't do shit when I'm depressed.
