What would you do?

If this was your situation, what would you do? A parent just died, dog just died, away from children who u have barely got to know bc you are away from spouse and you are going crazy wanting to come home, but you cant. If you were genuinely depressed, would you just deal with it or would you find anyway possible to make yourself feel better? Like drinking or cheating? Would you be more likely to do these things? How do people deal with depression?What would you do?
First, you should talk to your spouse and let him know how u feel. I would not suggest drinking or cheating because, the initial effect may be good, but the after effect would be 2x as worse. You have to ask yourself what makes you happy, and try to get what makes u happy. Sometimes when, I'm feeling depressed I play video games, or listen to techno music. I think you should seek counseling, and try to finds to make yourself happy, and at the same time taking control of your feelingsWhat would you do?
First why are you away from your loved ones? is it for the best? if there is nothing you can do to change that just try to stay close to them, call them as often as you can and make sure they understand.





drinking or cheating? nope... that will only make you feel guilty and more depress. Sorry about the lost in your family.. that is something we have to accept.. we live to die.





the most important think is to get it out of your head, the more you think about it the more will affect you.
Why do you refuse to go home? Be specific, please. ...ah.





Deployment. Call your base hospital and ask for counseling. Go regularly and work on living day to day. God bless you
First of all if you try to deal with your depression by drinking or cheating you are only going to deepen the depression because then you will feel horrible about the cheating and it will damage you self esteem and self worth thus making the depression deeper. If you try to drink your blues away then you will only feel worse, You will physically feel awfyl from the hangover and you will emotionally feel terrible because you may be able to momentarily drink your blues away but ALL your problems and worries will be there waiting on you when you wake up.....along with a pounding headache.


What you need to do is what i did when I was so depressed that I thought i was literally losing it. I spoke with my physician and he put me on Celexa, an antidepressant, and WOW, did it ever change my life. I am more balanced, calm and rational. I think this is the best route for you. Good luck and don't give up! There is light at the end of this dark and lonely tunnel.
I know that for me, drinking and cheating would only make me feel worse in the end. I would work on truly making myself happy, and that would probably start with counseling and a good support network. I wouldn't want to put a bandage on the problem, I would want to fix it from happening again.
i don't drink and wouldn't if depressed go to drs. get a medication change your diet and as for the cheating why would you do that you just said you felt bad ,cheating on your spouse and kids would make you feel better ? go to the doctors !!! call now and set up an appointment .
Seek counseling and pray..
I send my condolences to your family and the one who has died. May God rest his heart in eternal peace. This do become a hard, stressful, depressing situation when knowing that under all mean, although you make to see them while in your situation becomes sour returning to your home, however all you have is to pray about, stay strong, in one way or another there will a way to get in touch the kids. If its possible, you can work things out for them to visit you which perhaps would be easier for both of your. I know for instance, those in immigrants in USA knowing that they are out of status or with expired Visa, they can go back but coming back is a huge problem with INS. This kind of situation happens and it best to process for the kids to join you where you are.
i tink dat u need 2 make urself happy and if dat means cheating den id go for it.. dat sounds cruel i know but u seem depressed... stay away from drink cuz it'll wreck your life tho... xxx an im sure dis will all work out 4 u in the end so keep ya head up
find an honorable way to ';Deal with it.'; remain loyal to your special someone no matter what. find a safe alternative to drinking that does not have side affects or does not promote addiction. there are herbal remedies for depression.(St. Johns Wort) find a different mindset, meditate. learn to feel the depression, recognize it and then let it go, let it go far away from you. the longer you hold onto it the worse it might get.
