Take a Depression Test: for Abandonment Issues

Now you can take a depression test to see if abandonment issues are part of the problem.

Depression has SOOO many causes. Abandonment issues are SOOO often involved, and are SOOO devastating...

Depression and abandonment issues go together like peanut butter and jelly.

Fear of abandonment either blocks relationships or creates very stressful relationships. Negativity around relationships feeds into depressed, unworthy feelings...and blocks possibilities for warm human connections.

Be Gentle with Yourself!

Sometimes people take a depression test and it triggers unpleasant feelings. This one is especially painful. There is light ahead (and within!). Visit the links at the bottom for immediate relief.

And remember...ANYTIME you choose to grow, you have to start with identifying what needs to change. You must not allow yourself to get down when you see a need for change. Do not buy into the "positive thinking" that says seeing or naming a problem is creating more of it.

Changing and growing, learning from experience,--is what life is FOR. You can (and MUST?) learn how to change CONSTANTLY!~!

Ok. Time to take a depression test
for abandonment issues

1. Do you equate love with feeling insecure?

   Are your memories of "love" relationships mostly memories of feeling insecure?

   Does the thought of getting into a "love" relationship bring up expectations of being rejected, hurt, or abandoned?

   

2. Do you find yourself attracted to "unavailable" people?

   Can you see a pattern where you are attracted to people who are unavailable?...already taken, not wanting a relationship, moving away, in a position of authority, and so forth?

   Or have your relationships been with people who have been unavailable in some hidden way...can't commit, emotionally distant, in relationship with someone else, mentally stuck in a past relationship, mourning a lost love, endless turmoil, depressed, addicted...and so on?

   Here's a trick. Think of someone you know well. Maybe a former significant other. Maybe a parent. After you take a depression test for yourself, imagine how they would do, if they took one.
   

   Truth is, most of us could do with a mental health test!

3. Do your insecurities and fears sabotage your relationships?

   Have you ever noticed that your neediness, fear, and distrust create difficulties in your relationship?

   Could your negative expectations be a self-fulfilling prophesy? Do you "create what you are afraid of"?

   Do you ever stay in a relationship because you figure you are lucky to have one at all, ...that no matter how bad it is, it's better than being alone? and maybe "this is the best you can do"?

Did you know that the number one most important thing for healing from depression is supportive relationships? Can you see how abandonment issues block your ability to have deep, long-lasting, supportive relationships?

When you suffer from abandonment issues, your energy goes to self-protection. There is no room for the vulnerability, trust, and risk-taking an intimate, committed relationship requires for the long haul.
