Depression isn’t real.
Depression isn’t real
depression doesn't exist.
Everyone gets sad just people overreact when they are sad
Psychology is a fake meme pseudoscience.
if youre depressed have sex literally
and work out
Based and redpilled.
>people actually think depression is just "the big sad"
depression can be caused by brain inflammation which is a very serious issue especially because it is not an acute problem that doctors recognize as needing immediate care so people can go nearly their entire lives suffering from it (brain inflammation) and never reach their full potential.
>Spend all fucking day inside and don't interact with others in person
>Eat nothing but garbage microwave and fast food
>Stay up all fucking night and don't give yourself a healthy sleep schedule
>Don't do anything productive with your life and go without any goals to complete
>"WHY AM I SO DEPRESSED"?
Depression does exist, it's just very preventable. It's when you let yourself fall into that negative feedback loop that it becomes an issue to get out. Just don't fall in the first place and that's that.

I keep trying and I still don't get a bf.
Breaking your leg is not something you catch from the sky. Take responsibility for yourself and your life. Push forward. And it's gone. Fact.
>''Depression isn't real'' says mentally healthy man with perfect life
>Low endorphin levels
>Just be happy lmao
Ok.
You could then say that depression is the lack of conviction to push forward and overcome it.
>the people in this thread post on /pol/ and jerk off to Trump
>itt anons who dont understand brain chemicals
Depression is literally a chemical imbalance in the brain, that's all.
>fall out of the sky
>break your leg
Checkmate.
I sure am glad you 12 years olds are so smart.
So I guess Robin Williams sat inside all day eating garbage and doing nothing productive with his life?
And why do you think those decisions get made in the first place?
This. It sounds like a meme but it's true.
I was depressed for years. Used to look out my window at people walking in the summer and almost cry because I wish I could be outside with friends and happy.
Forced myself to get out of my comfort zone on a regular basis, joined gym, eventually just got the fuck over it.
I do all those things because I am depressed and I was depressed long before I started doing those things, sure they probably contribute but i'm extremely skeptical of them being the cause.
That's the land, bro. The sky doesn't actually break your leg.
I think for some people depression is the result of being aimless, working towards something productive is the best way to overcome it.
In real life you will always be wrong because being sensitive and a giant whiny bitch is the new norm and yes, depression is real, however depression isn't sharing 50 IF U HAVE ANXIETY U PROBLY EXPERIENCE THESE TRIGGERS EVERY DAY XD. Too many 14 year olds self diagnosing, if they had to spend a week on an actual ward in lock up pre-diagnosis they'd probably find out what depression and mental illness are.
>muh chemical imbalance
Yeah my doc told me same thing turns out it's all made up and they don't know why shit happens.
Fucking psychologists are hacks.
Death is literally your body not breathing. Thats all
yeah all the depressed babies here correlate well with the influx of liberal faggotry on this board
>coked up celebrity with real mental issues is my go-to argument for depression
>Highly successful retard who's never been depressed a day in his life giving advice on depression
>There's only 1 kind of depression
Congratulations, you went from a 2 to a 5 on a scale of 10. Some people are naturally 8s.
Or maybe it's the other way around. The depression is the reason you don't leave house.
I honestly almost agree or at least i do with anxiety. I used to just get anxiety off of some things like going outside and talking to people. I changed myself, pushed myself and after about a year i got up in peoples faces who were talking shit and told them to shut the fuck up or else and my heart was fine. People who have anxiety always just mock the "try new things argument", and then say back "well i tried but X went wrong and it came back", no fucking shit. Its not always going to be perfect for you in life and that's something everyone has to deal with. I was ugly, weird looking and skinny fat. I used to get zero girls or even looks or ANYTHING from them but now its like flys on shit with me and them because i changed myself into a 8/10 face bodybuilder and i'm very popular with girls even though i've been bulking for 8 months now and cutting in the next wo weeks. You can try and make a change but some things are just out of our hands. I work a shitty job getting paid shit and i'm trying to start my life and get a job at a bank or something with a high MW but its hard. Even that, i get depressed all the time i don't really have any family like i did when i was a kid. I have my dad who's a bipolar mess who told me if his gf wasn't around he'd khs and my grandpa who's very old and i think maybe sick. I wanna start a family and have that feeling again but its hard to find a good girl in todays america and i don't know if i can stop my kids from becoming a victim of the addict gene like the rest of my family. I can't change bipolar genes or addict genes. I can change the way i look and my effort in life but sometimes its out of my hands. Sorry for the rant just needed to say this right now
Exactly.
It's called knowing better.
your fake depression isn't real grow up lol
>forced myself
You had a strong enough desire to do something about your situation, you were no longer depressed as soon as you decided to change your situation.
>If I call it a pseudoscience no one can make fun of me not understanding it!
Unlike the old days when Yea Forums was full of mature, happy, mentally stable conservatives.
What good comes from comparing yourself to others like that
Then why does it feel so real?
To be honest though unironically you should just deal with it.
Been depressed and self loathing since I was 12 and I'm still able to function semi-decently without bringing it up all the time.
Being as sad as 70% of the rest of the world isn't an excuse to be a worthless shit.
Depression is an obvious pitfall trap. You basically have to let yourself fall into it, but once you're in you can't just climb out.
I'm not depressed tho, faglicker
I'm not depressed but I don't like interacting much with people and that's okay.
The premise of the fucking thread is that depression doesn't exist.
>just walk up and say hello
>it works for me
t. professional MMA fighter
>happy despite being utterly depressed
Just let go. It's a chemical imbalance in your brain that nothing will permanently fix. Nothing fucking matters just sit back and enjoy whatever you enjoy. Life is a joke you might as well laugh at it.
t. manic depressive
were all freaks and weirdos but those guys a lot more vocal recently
>depression isn't a mental illness
>Robin Williams was still on drugs when he killed himself
Okay, buddy. I guess all the other celebs that have killed themselves due to depression were coked up, suffering from "real" mental issues, and just didn't pull their bootstraps tight enough.
Do you mean looks? It was never about looks. It was about self respect and making goals. You can't be happy unless you try to be. The fact that I'm posting positive responses and you felt the need to try to belittle me for it should be a clear as fuck sign that something is wrong with you.
They wouldn't be on /pol/ if they anything about the brain and chemicals that affect it.
Depression is real but just like being gay if it's all you have to tall about when it comes to yourself you become an obnoxious fucking faggot that no one wants to be around.
We get it, you self depreciate to cope, but maybe fucking tone it down, eh?
baseline happiness.
Gender studies is a valid and recognized field of science, if you refute this point you are a hypocrite and you do not understand it.
based
>I'm a machine with no will
Don't really have anything I want to do. Don't care for having kids or being in a relationship. No interest in anything as a career and the previous jobs I had over the years were soul-sucking and made me want to avoid them entirely. Honestly I don't even think i'm depressed, I just don't really care for what the world has to offer. I'm fine with sitting in gaming, watching anime and sleeping all my life. The fact people think you MUST do stuff with your life is the real depressing part.
Of course it's not real.
How wild would that be to consider it a real disease?
Everyone is happy all the same, all the time, all their lives.
Imagine thinking otherwise.

>Ask for help
>"Get over it. Depression is just temporary"
I fucking hate these people. A majority of the people I reveal my depression to don't believe me at all and say I don't look like the stereotypical depressed artist and end up making me feel worse by just blowing it off as a joke, not knowing I see a therapist once a week. The ones who do listen to me just offer platitudes and worthless advice like doing things I already do and cutting out stuff I never enjoyed doing as if they know me well enough. I just want to come to terms with it and live a balanced life instead of bouncing back and forth between being inappropriately happy to reclusive, suicidal, and back again.
Why does
>Depression is treatable
automatically mean
>Depression isn't real?
Depression is real. Depression is real as fuck. Just because they can be overcome, doesn't mean they don't exist.
Sometimes, yes, it is as simple as getting outside more, getting some fresh air and exercise. Sometimes it's a little more serious and involves therapists and pills. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist and isn't a real medical condition.
I broke my arm a few years back. I'm fine now. Does that mean compound fractures aren't real?
no shit you aren't literally no one in this thread is, I am going to bet that under 10 of these 34 unique posters have probably actually been to a mental ward
>not something you catch from the sky
>he doesn't know about chemtrails
Yes you can control it when loved ones die or getting laid off work
The only thing keeping me going on the grimmest of days is knowing I'll be dead someday.
It's a start, I guess.
>tfw had crippling anxiety last year that took months to get over and lost 20lbs in the process due to no appetite
I don't know if anxiety or depression is worse.
I think you're depressed and trying to pretend you aren't sadboy
Isn't this the "chad" who just recently tweeted about how much he hates Star Wars for like 12 hours straight?
Dude just don't get depressed, it's that easy.
So that warrants a response trying to put down a guy who shared how he improved himself?

>tfw was depressed as fuck
>tfw got a midengined sporstcar and that took my depression away
>tfw money buys happyness
I've been severely depressed for month for absolutelt retarded things but I can't help it.
One is that I can't decide on an online name. It's incredibly important to me to be able to play multiplayer and have a good name. It needs to be easy to pronounce, look good, be short, maximum 3 syllables, huge bonus points if it somehow describes a major part of my interest or personality, and it can't be made fun of.
Truly, all you have to do is just smile.
Poof, it's gone.
All your issues simply disappear.
Just smile, anons.
Let's not kid ourselves.
>get depressed when having to deal with people
>feel less depressed when alone in room with pet
>I just want to come to terms with it and live a balanced life instead of bouncing back and forth between being inappropriately happy to reclusive, suicidal, and back again
Jesus fuck this
i'd argue the depression. As a fellow over-anxious person I find myself being more productive with anxiety prodding me with a sharp stick.
And what exactly is wrong with him? Depression doesn't exist after all so it can't be that.
>if youre depressed have sex literally
>and work out
The most depressed i've ever been was when I was an olympic level gymnast having sex 2-3 times a day.
You're confusing depression with apathetic sacks of lazy shit.
>Will
Emotional sensations are chemical by nature.
Why do the people making these arguments always seem to lack individuality? If they've experienced some sort of " depression ", it's always the " failed normalfag " kind. Are these people unable to think that there are some people who find no fullfilment in working out, being social or things of the kind?
VIDEO GAMES
pretty much, yeah. Unless you believe you can do something like drop acid and not succumb to its effects just by using your "will".
Reminder that depression is just another fake pseudo science made up by trannies and soiboys just like gender studies to give them an excuse for being so fragile.
I wish I was dead.
Ah yes let me just get support from all the nice people in my life.... Just don't be sad LOL
lol shut the fuck up liar
have sex
DUDE JUST GO OUTSIDE I MEAN, UGH! COME ON IT'S SO EASY
he's right and wrong
depression isn't real
it exists only in the mind
You probably have some form of bipolar or borderline disorders. You should see a therapist.
because you aren't, seriously, get over it like everyone else; if you have a serious behavioral disorder or are on the spectrum then check yourself in and receive medication as well as training to handle yourself.
have penile sex
haha depression is this easy to cure
It's because the word "Depressed" has been watered down thanks to all the people using it when they feel slightly upset. In addition, most people think they know depression because they've felt really upset at one point, probably from grief or something and then thanks to that they give shitty advice.
If its fake why do trannies kys? Magic?
this is utter bullshit
neck yourself, normie
holy based and redpilled
it is unless you're a tranny or soiboy

ya it is. just get over it bro
>Just be yourself bro, works for me!
my ex told me she thought I might have borderline personality disorder
Just stop being sad lol depression isn't real duh
Have sex.
this but unironically, smiling releases endorphins
I feel you, it's harder to come up with one than I thought. I came up with one that I thought looked good with my 12 year old mind, but I never thought at that time that my name was going to be needed to be pronounced at some point because voice chat was not a thing, and it didn't look like it ever would be.
...and now it's way too late to change it so I'm stuck with one I don't really like and a major part why I don't have a mic.
I cleared mine and got my file closed in less than 2 years by shaping the fuck up. If you put yourself in an echochamber of negativity you deserve it. No one is going to help you except yourself at the end of the day.
>Extremely depressed
>Time goes on and the problems I was depressed about fade to the background
>Depression goes away
He's correct. Fix the problem in your life that's causing depression. or don't I dont care about you faggot.

Not all forms of depression are the same. It's a spectrum like gender and race.
>medication
Yeah no did that never doing that again. I'd rather want to fucking neck myself 24/7 than be a soulless automaton who can't even get a chub for even a second. The meds are great at making you not sad anymore but they leave out the part where you don't feel anything anymore
depression is like, an invention of the Jews, so niggers can like, cuck us out of our white women.
It's funny that you're trying to rationalize people being actually happy with their lives by applying your own sad schedule to their lives, seriously stop being depressed lol

There's genuine medical depression, and then there "depression," where you're just kind of a dipshit.
Just be happy and get back to work.
You know depression destroys all motivation right? Those things aren't a cause, they just make it worse.
I do and I'm actually quite happy with my life, I just came here to laugh at people in this thread and tell them to just stop being depressed lol

Nigger I was literally depressed from 13 years of age to 21.
I mean at least it's easy to change it on literally every platform?
If you don't like it, change. Which takes my problem further because I'm willing to spend those $10 per name change on any platform I'm active on. One time I changed 3 times within days on Blizzard because I couldn't decide.
I feel less lonely though, thank you.
>2006

what you got user?
Okay I don’t know if I’m depressed but I hope someone here has an idea of what I’ve got. About two years ago I was going through an extremely stressful time of my life. An in constant anxiety that seriously affected me and intense stress. Then a person who was angering me every single day forced me to repress my anger, as in force whatever chemical/neural reaction to not go through because I just wasn’t in the position to scream and let it out. One day I do that again and suddenly I feel something in my head and I lose the ability to feel emotions. Fucking nothing, like I’m a vegetable but I can still do anything else. Two years later and it hasn’t got much better. No money for doctor and no one to reach to. What the fuck is wrong with me?
Are autismbux real & enough for me to live a life of non productivity? Honestly seems like the only path I want to take that isn't killing myself.

The booze helps me forget. Fuck weed though that shit is for fags.
I tried that, I also went with my real life nickname for a while and it was alright, but then I realized that I don't like it when people I don't know are calling me by something so close and personal.

Americans are degenerate, soulless garbage people. It’s partly about their culture that has abandoned valuing any form of discreetness or empathy. You always have to one-up others and be right even if you don’t know jack shit about the topic.
that's not depression and your doctor will know it
If you're happy all the time, chances are you're retarded. The retarded are blissfully unaware of anything and don't have the capacity to really feel anything else. You've heard of the saying "happy as a clam" right? The clam is constantly content because it doesn't have a central nervous system.
Perhaps recognize that the person you are currently, is not the person you were previously, and the person you are currently is not the person you want to be, else you'd feel no desire to change.
You and trannies are no different. Just man up you fucking pussy.
Same advice goes to you, tranny.

What exactly do you expect, retard? Are you one of those spergs that thinks others should know you better than you do? If you don't want people discussing your depression, don't fucking mention it.
depression is the biggest normal fag "illness", you fucking retard.
Nobody fucking cares bro. Look out for yourself and your interests, fuck everybody else. Shove your competition off a bridge if given the opportunity
Robin Williams didn't have depression you fucking mongoloids. I mean, he probably did, but that is not what pushed him over the edge.
I blame the media for this shit.
Robin Williams suffered of Lewy Body Syndrom/Dementia. It is a degenerative disease (IE, gets worse as time passes) with no cure. It causes symptoms hallucinations, pains, nightmares, paranoia and so on. It gets worse and worse and never gets better.
It makes life literally unlivable at some point. No wonder he killed himself. He wasn't simply depressed or sad.
>confusing depression with apathetic sacks of lazy shit
but that's exactly what depression means these days - just like wolf whistling is "rape", being angry at people online is "ptsd", and making people angry is "harassment / online terrorism".
There needs to be a new word for the actually depressed.
this
>If you're happy all the time, chances are you're retarded
Or just Amrican. They don't have a brain. People become smarter when they are depressed. Being sad is a key to moving forward mentally. They are always happy because being American = living life on easy mode
Most physical diseases aren't real. A lot of them are made up and take advantage of crazy people and hypochondriacs to sell overpriced medication. There's only a few basic variants of illness, most lung diseases are just different stages of chest infection.
Cancer isn't real. Have you ever actually met anyone suffering from symptoms of cancer itself? It's always people suffering from the side effects of the "treatment" for cancer, ingesting harmful chemicals and radiation poisoning.
constant physical pain causes depression

He actually had a real mental illness, user. Look up Lewy Body Dementia. It is probably one of the worst things that can happen to you as far as diseases go. Doesn't kill you, only makes your life pure suffering, has no cure or treatment, gets worse every year. Nothing you can do about it other than die.

Why is it so fucking hard for people to realize that other people's experience of mind and self might not be exactly the same a their own?
Like, I don't even want you to understand how it is to be someone else, only that it's not like everyone else out there is just your mind (and mental pathologies) in a different body.
Holy shit that's pretty good, I would vote for that.
Clean your penis.
Good boy user, now try reading the rest when you are able to. No pressure.
Oh shit, sorry. I was trying to go to Yea Forums. Must've made a turn at /pol/ on accident.
Please proceed.

Uh huh, what? How does any one of these contribute to depression? They'rw convenience or entertainment.
The good jobs are here.
I'm a bit hesitant on taking the advice of someone who's career it is to get professionally kicked in the head
Depression is a jew scam tailored to make wageslaves feel bad for not working.
being suicidal because u don't want to contribute to this mess of a society does not mean you have a mental illness, its the appropriate response to your surrounding,
You have a job?
The retardation of the line I quoted invalidated the rest of the post. Sorry kid
genuinely why are you here
Why would I want a silly name? I mentioned that I don't wanna be made fun of.
of course he doesn't he shitposts on here all day
I'm convinced these people are just too self-absorbed, selfish, or just simply too dumb to care about others that aren't monumental in their lives or a product of their work. It's really disgusting to see people operate as if the world revolves around them, only them, and aren't aware of how they're acting.
>try to better self

There is no point.
I thought about killing myself every day for over four years. Then eventually I improved my mental state and got better. I still have rough days occasionally, but i did overcome my depression. It's just a state of mind that you get sucked into by thinking everything will stay the same. But that is never the case unless you let it. Sure, some people do have actual chemical imbalances going on, and i feel for those people. But for myself and the vast majority of people who are depressed, it's their own responsibility to snap out of it and move on. It won't happen immediately but it is entirely possible. Just let yourself get a little older and expand your mind set, guys. Things will change.
Narcissism is actually really common, and they straight up lack the ability to understand that concept.
Ironically, people that understand empathy have to realize that narcissists are completely incapable of empathizing with others because they’re just hardwired differently
Depression is real and the Blue Cuckmark's advice is how you combat it. Taking responsiblity and pushing forward overcomes it. Feeling helpless and sitting still lets it win. Sissy ERP and joining Team Creme mean you surrender to the depression and you die.
Aniki would be more supportive if he were here. You're not the boss of this gym.
Yes.
I post at work too.

but HOW

He is right tho

Had a hearty chuckle out of this.
Me and my Peeps are still here, kicking depression in the taint.

How old are you bruh, it doesn't take a rocket appliances degree to learn that too much estrogen or too much testosterone can make you depressed or manic. Come back when you've beaten the 10th grade.
I had crippling anxiety for nearly that long and put on about 20 pounds. Although I was getting over some health problems and was at my wit's end worrying a medication wouldn't work or not. Sometimes relief after years of suffering causes an emotional breakdown of euphoric levels. It literally kicked my ass mentally, and feel like it fucked with my outlook on life.
I'm now stuck in being aimless with a inherit goal but no starting line. I feel like I'm a loaded gun ready to fire with no target to aim at.
Have sex
That's surprising. What is it you for work?
>Wake up
>Get out of bed
>Shower
>Go to work
>Go on date with gf
>Post online about being depressed
I wonder how much older I'll need to be.
I mean if I gotta wait for my deathbed for a bit of peace, so be it. Just wish these things were a bit more concrete sometimes.
It's no longer taught to kids. Instead emphasis is placed on the self, to focus inwards and try to pull out what you are. Problem is most people, even lots of practice, are terrible at introspection and can't understand their own motives at all. That's why so many kids are gay or trans now, getting a child who does not have a complete sense of self to examine himself, is a terrible idea. You end up just fucking them up, because they look in and see nothing at all.
ponis in vagoo
The mind and mody are codependent. Treat one badly, and the other will suffer, its as simple as that.
You sound like you're projecting. Can you confirm, to any degree, that you are not also an apathetic sack of lazy shit.
>I fucking hate these people.
>The ones who do listen to me just offer platitudes
>or worthless advice like doing things I already do and cutting out stuff I never enjoyed doing as if they know me well enough.
What the fuck do you want them to do? Suck you off?
>telling people who dont know you well enough to know anything about your life or habits but expecting them to be able to give you any meaningful advice
Sounds like you're just a narcissist bro.

oyy lol
This. Life is not going to be fun for him when the CTE starts to kick in
Now explain away the dude from Linkin Park killing himself. Was he suffering from LBSD too?
What if you are forced to be in a place where you don't want to be surrounded by people you hate,deprived of your freedom,family and friends,with a maximum of 4 hours of sleep and forced to work like a slave for 150 euro a month or else you are severely punished by the state and society.
Depression is 100% real and a lot of times you have no control over it
This is quite video games, hmm yes.
if you own it proudly, its impossible to make fun of.
no-one has made fun of me in game and friends just find it sorta goofy which is the point
Okay but what does that have to do with my statement?
>depression is a meme
neet for 15 years here can confirm.i am still happy and dont want to kill myself yet
lol....just b happy bro...?

What kind of shithole are you living in that still has indentured servitude?
He had child traumas and decades of drugs abuse
When you work from home you can shitpost AND work at the same time.
That is not depression, you fucking retard. you are reacting negatively to your surroundings.
actual depression is much rarer and your surroundings don't effect it. most of the people posting ITT do not have depression, even if they really want the cool points.
Other people aren't actually real. Anyone that isn't me is just a complex facsimile of intelligence without any true soul or rationality. As such, any perspective or opinion other than my own is inherently flawed and any other experience is half formed and can be ignored.
I am the only one who exists. Other people are formed from clay and lack true understanding. It only follows from that that there are no such thing as mental illness, as I don't suffer from any and other people don't have minds that can become unwell.
Are you suggesting that I should have anything to be proud of?
It's just amazing how emotionally unhealthy virtually _all_ child populations in America appear to be these days. We are already emotionally unequipped to pull ourselves away from tearing ourselves apart as is - larger portions of the adult population with worse emotional health can only hurt.
What can I talk to people about that they actually attempt to converse about, Im decent looking and not fat
I can't just say hi to a normie and talk about video games
I also do martial arts, but no one except jocks care about that either
I'm not but what does that have to do with it. People work on incentives and there's no incentive for lazy people to claim depression when they're anonymous.
And none of that is known to cause severe depression which results in suicide, amirite?
You missed an important step
>dump fake friends
>make real friends
Shamelessly bumping my own post in hopes for answers
Your mind does a terrible fucking time realizing the world your mind wants, pal.
He's right about everything. I told my crush I don't watch Star Wars and now we're married and have 3 kids.
That's not bad, assuming you're not just making shit up.
How to I get a job as a programmer, user? I dropped out of college, and my current job isn't long term. I feel like shit mooching off my parents, but no jobs ever call back
>other people aren't actually real
Chances are good you're gonna die from another person, and death is as real as it gets
Games that have main characters with depression/anxiety?
Based as fuck
the least you can do is be able to take some bants aimed at your ingame name damn
>be social
>have a gf
>exercise 3-4 times a week
>still depressed as fuck
Tried opening up to my gf at the time about my past and why it still gets to me. Tried explaining that even most of the time I would just be down for no reason at all. Her response was "Oh I'm tired we'll talk in the morning." Broke up with her two days later. Started surrounding myself with a different group of friends and finally started opening up to people and honestly it's helped a lot. I still get depressed randomly for 2 or 3 days where I just wanna be a sad bitch but nowhere near as much as I used. Depression is a real thing.
LISA
Stop doing martial arts. Subconcussive hits are not good for your mind
Like, seriously, make it a goal to earn enough that you can afford to talk to a doctor. That's deep emotional trauma that you can't just yell at yourself to be better and expect to fix it.
Thank you. Currently lying in bed shitposting on Yea Forums.

Cool. Now let me enjoy the embrace of my JubJub.
Pretty sure this shithole is the number one cause of my depression but I can't leave been here since 2005
I fucking hate this place
First and foremost, don't come to Yea Forums (let alone Yea Forums) for advice.
Second, seeing as you lack the means for a professional, get yourself a way to fund some trips to one. They won't be coming out of their office to scoop you into their arms and whisk you away.

Congrats, you lobotomized yourself. Enjoy having people constantly complain about how uncaring and cold you are while having to deal with assholes who push you just to try and get a rise out of you like some kind of game.
Sure? I played a little and she was just sociopathic.
>having a gf you never opened up to
Whats the point
Dont ever, ever expect women to empathize or understand. they are automatons for dumping your cum inside
A good name can't immediately be made fun of. It can't rhyme with a nasty word. It can't change from nice to rude by replacing one letter.
It's pretty nice.
I don't know I went to top school and interned in silicon valley
My gf told me she wont have sex with me anymore until I get a vasectomy.
haha, same.
I don't mean people don't physically exist, I mean they're basically machines that think they're alive. Of course they actually exist, they're just not sentient. Yourself included though you probably don't see it that way.
I'm not saying it's easy, and not knowing how or when things will start changing for the better is part of the challenge. A lot of it depends on how willing you are to change things. It may sound a bit asinine, but 'suck it up' has pretty much been the main philosophy behind how I changed things around. Life sucks sometimes, you just gotta power through and not dwell on it.
Too much of anything is bad for you, including convenience and entertainment. All of the things you listed are bad for your body if done too much, especially when put together all at once
>What the fuck do you want them to do? Suck you off?
Not him, but listening to him and ask him to put words on his toughts would be a good start.
Trying to give advicee right off the bat to people in that situation just makes it look like it's some sort of easy fix situation and that you act like you know everything about it.
Basically this. But downplaying it to the point of
>just don't get depressed lol
is kinda idiotic. Go and say that to someone who lost their child or similar and you'll get punched into the face. The negative loop is breakable but you cannot know when some really bad shit happens.
im also indecisive about usernames and i try to follow this image
Try actually talking to people outside of the internet, or atleast outside of Yea Forums. I doubt you'll find your bf here.
It's hard for most people to think of depression as a symptom and not necessarily a problem in and of itself. A bad cough could be from anything from a bad cold to something that's literally killing you. Most people realize that is someone's hacking up their lungs it may be at a point where tea and honey won't help.
I think if most people were able to think of it in those terms then they'd understand that depression could be a symptom of some poor life choices or it could be related to major chemical imbalances that require further help.
You (and like, everyone in this thread) should probably find something better to define your self-worth and image on than sex and image. It's incredibly damaging and a trap. Volunteer somewhere once a week. Decide that you're going to get really good at woodworking and make stuff. Read a bunch and write reviews on Goodreads or something. And I'm being serious here; find something more fulfilling than that vacuous hole.
Fuck. Guess I'm gonna have to go back to my "top" college.
What is a good videogame about depression?
Depression isn't being sad, it's the body and brain not reading signals to feel emotions properly. It's constantly misdiagnosed and mistreated because psychology is about as credible as a science as witchcraft is, and because of that there isn't any working treatment for it. Fuck kids pretending to be depressed. I just want to feel again, I haven't in 12 years.
Persona 3
Can you just get a gf/wife already and stop pretending you're gay online? There are too many of you straight fags doing this.

>How does excissive stimulation that leads to anhedonia contribute to depression?
What a fucking retard holy shit
I don't feel happiness anymore. I laugh, I smile, but I'm hollow. I don't enjoy video games anymore, I just use them to distract myself. I used to feel empathy for people but that's almost gone too. I'm afraid it won't be long before I become a true monster that the world will only shun.
Nier; mainly the older brother version of the main character.
During my 1 year long manic episode I got a job, contacted my family, got my life back on track and the depressive episodes no longer came
It's a fucked up kind of mental disorders cancelling each others out.
People just love to wallow in their self-pity. Regardless if depression exists or not, your not doing yourself any favours by exclamating how much more depressed you are than others on an anonymous imageboard.
I just scrolled through this whole thread looking for video games
ask me anything.
>actually raising such a pathetic piece of shit that he kills himself
I'll punch them first
um haha sorry but the definition of depression has changed and you need too to
This hits too close to home, user. Please never give up.
>Depression meds make you into a robot
I'm tired of this meme, depression itself makes you feel like an emotionless robot, anti-depressants are supposed to change that.
I don't eat particularly well and I don't go to the gym, but that's all. I've been depressed for years and I just kind of think myself into really bad mental states. My family talked me into taking medication, because I think they believe I'm going to kill myself. I feel okay now, I still think about how pointless everything seems and how I'll probably never have anything to look forward to in life, but the meds make me numb.
He came to the brutal realisation that he sang in Linkin Park.
I need a legitimate doctor to tell me the actual answer.
>No money for doctor
Shit like this makes me feel incredibly lucky to live in a country that has actual fucking healthcare, I had three years of free therapy and might possibly be eligible for more at this rate
>be diagnosed with clinical depression
>literally parts of my brain are broken, straight up don't work
>These biological faults are medically detectable and visible on most brain scans
>"Depression is temporary just get over it lol"
fuck you.
People need to understand that for helping someone that's depressed you don't "give them advice' but you work it out together step by step and LISTEN to them
>t.
>just bee yourself
oh fuck off, I stopped being a neet, got a job, and sort of started doing what these tards call "taking control of your life", but it doesnt do anything, you still dont feel like anything, I dont feel sad, or happy, or whatever, the only time I felt even remotely good is when I was taking pills, but since I am "financially Independent" I cant afford them anymore
also, what these people dont understand is that not everybody is the same kinda person, just be yourself doesnt work if yourself = shit. I am socially awkward, have no hobbies, no interests nothing, I cant just say hi to people because I have nothing else to say after that. Besides, these people giving this retarded advice? they never actually followed it themselves, I dont know what weird countries they are from, but noone actually approaches complete strangers in the street/cafe/library and strikes up a conversation. Also, twiter threads should be banned
Only monsters are going to thrive in the world that is being socially engineered right now
Go to therapy. It helps.
>excessive
What about any of those things is excessive?
It's casual everyday things, activities, hobbies, entertainment, fun. Socialising is never necessary to have a good, fulfilling day.
Pressing through certainly hasn't lifted my spirits yet. Making progress is nice. It just isn't enough to keep the engine going.
I'll have to hope that "more time" is all it'll take and that I'll still be kicking by then.
That's pretty hard.
Why would I pretend for years?
Won’t describe the situation but it could take a very long time to get the funds to even see a doctor just once. I really just want to know if there’s at least one person out there who has gone through something similar.
I sincerely hope you’re not serious.
How's your day going?
Sorry pal you're experiencing what most people suffering from legitimate medical gender dysphoria are, your diagnosis has been hijacked for a loooooong time :^)
Mainly cause I've been more of the listener type. Would listen to all her problems whenever she needed. Then she would constantly complain about how sad I always. So when I finally tried explaining to she was to tired to listen. Also all the shit I did growing up I kept bottled up for years. 28 now and didn't start talking about till about 3yrs ago to people.
That's pretty good. I almost followed all of them, except I put a hyphen in the middle for God knows what reason. Not changing in though.
What caused that? Drugs? Brain trauma? Genetic predisposition?
What's your antidepressant?
for me it's lolis
um he just became depressed bro anyone can get it dont you know??
Stick to videogames and politics you chicken-head fucks
You're not alone, but you can't stay alone in it either. Do what you can (and I know exactly how much it sucks to have to help yourself when, well, you're in need of help to begin with) to try and get help.
The controllers or our society only want braindead goyim farm animals, preferably female or those with a female mind. Anyone that doesnt fit this mold is being phased out through an endless number of controlled variables.
The goal is a sea of interchangeable economic units with no culture, history, pride or ability to fight back.
Why should it be easy? You have a job, so atleast you're not completely closed off from the outside world. Did you make any social connections at college?
If it's going to take as long as you say you best get started sooner than later. The longer you wait, the longer you're going to be looking for someone with the same situation rather than answers.
I just got straight up real sad boys hours one day and went to visit the school nurse and she was like "aw dude you have depression" and now sometimes I get really sad and don't smile and shit, it's hard dude
went on a hike yesterday and had a fucking panic attack in the woods for some reason. had to wait like 3 hours until i was calm enough to drive back home, good shit
I ran out of my pills back in December. So now I shitpost here to cope.
>Cancer isn't real. Have you ever actually met anyone suffering from symptoms of cancer itself?
Yes my grandmother, next retarded question or are you gonna preach about vaccines cause autism next?
oh it is real, you just don't know when it will come. But it makes itself known once it arrives
>t. someone who has never suffered from depression
Not sure if it works like this for anyone else, but I feel waves of sadness every now and then even when in the middle of doing something fun. I feel physical pain from it.
>I sincerely hope you’re not serious.
I am being dead fucking serious. You basically have emotionally lobotomized yourself. Your brain is fucked and it's going to take time to un-fuck itself. But good luck trying to get people to understand that. I would suggest you start learning to fake emotions.
Claiming solipsism is fucking cheating, you know there's no counter-argument to it
Go make an appointment to get that refilled user. Just do it.
Me.
I can't do it.
Honestly this. Interacting with other people has caused nothing but sadness for me.
Okay.
I read a webmd article on depression and I think I am all of the things in that article, or at least like, 4 of them maybe, or, well, it's more like I get fleeting moments of 2 of those symptoms but anyway I'm like depressed
you have never taken a martial arts class
we don't hit our sparring partners on the head, you get kicked out if you do that shit
You can't if you keep up that attitude. Believe in yourself for once.
This thread is some of the most entertainment I've found off of Yea Forums in ages.
I hope you all feel better soon.
How can you do that when everyone in the modern first world has become a disgusting degenerate? Just take a look at the people on this site. None of us are an exception.
Even the best of people today would be considered degenerates just decades ago.
I don't trust anyone else since I've seen how shitty can be from my family and from watching other people (I used to eavesdrop on people a lot).
What happens when you get a bunch of degenerates who are incapable with relating with others? Society begins to break down. That's exactly what's happening with the modern generations. People don't know how to communicate and with laugh at others when they try to open up about things. They can't handle serious conversations and instead opt to make light of everything and avoid real connections. I'm not saying everyone has communication problems to this extent yet, but many people do and the problem will only grow with each generation.
Yeah, user, that's actually mental illness.
I've known several people who act like you.fap exclusively to 2d/3d girls and they try to pretend they're gay for some odd reason online.
I guess the attention is nice, since you can just RP as an anime girl and you'll get a shitload of responses, idk? You tell me why you do it, because I don't really understand.
>why can't everyone who I decide to throw a burden on just be a trained therapist, drop what they're doing and do all the right things to help ME
Making unreasonable demands of others, and then getting mad at them for not being able to help shows an obvious lack of empathy for others and an inflated focus of one's self, like a narcissist
Maybe he should spill these thoughts to his therapist so he can get treatment for his personality disorder? Mental illness and depression are often linked
well man it doesnt have to be that. I just offer you do something fun with your nickname its worked well for me. otherwise you're going to spend forever coming up with a 'cool' name that actually gets gayer the longer you spend on it.
a 'good' name takes 30 seconds tops to come up with.
I am being 100% genuine when I say this. I think you might have autism, have you ever seen anyone about it?
No way! My school counselor said I might be depressed which basically means the same thing so I've been telling all my friends I'm actually pretty depressed irl #sadbois
Have you played any video games today?
Fuck off loser
