OP, I can't promise you it will get better but I can say that if you hold on things CAN get better. I have had generalized anxiety disorder and depression for about 14 years now, and have gone through a few episodes exactly like what you are describing and one time I had a plan to kill myself and everything. I didn't go through with it, and eventually things got slightly better enough for me to dig my way out. It is not easy. It will take work but you are not alone. I've been there. I'm sure thousands of others have as well. I know this probably doesn't help too much but I'm a stranger on the internet who cares about you.

Hi OP, I’m an executive sales recruiter with one of the top recruitment companies in America, I’m one of the biggest billers (best recruiters) normally lurk here for the lulz but I can likely help you with your interview concern/ worry. I school candidates all the time. Can you be more specific around your concerns? What type of jobs are you going for?

Lol i drank vodka and had 4 prescriptions xans oxys sleep adderalfor 5 years it doeant help im lucky i didint kill mmyelf or anyone fuxkint trumps pill laws took my pills away i guess i should be grateful doing better now not being a fuxked up drone trump 2020 give me back my opioids lmao

Kill someone. The prison setting will force you to socialize.

I die inside every night because my pony is gone

Lmao fagg

the gym helped me with my own suicidal depression. even if some days are blankly robotic, going gives you a goal to work at, some control over your own life, and the chemical effects of exercise can help you feel a bit better too

>have nobody to talk to about it
This is probably the worst part. I’m just so fucking lonely. I have my mum and my psychologist. My mum doesn’t know just how bad things are, and I always feel like my psychologist can’t be bothered with me.

Everybody thinks I’m lazy and some sort of freak because I don’t have a job or have any friends, but it’s all because I have anxiety and depression. It makes me feel so guilty and ashamed.

I legit don’t know what I’m going to do. It’s just getting worse and worse. I’m not even suicidal so I can’t even do that for attention points.

Get a job, stop leeching on society

>How do you deal with depression and anxiety
Drugs but I got a DUI on Monday and now I'm trying to force myself to be sober. Going to outpatient starting tomorrow hope it goes well. I wish I wasn't such a fucking pussy and I could just end it already

Sounds hippie as shit, but meditate. Or at least adopt that frame of mind. It's all about programming your mind.

Think about "what" is experiencing anxiety, depression, or any negative feeling. Shitty things come at you, but are they happening to YOU. Or are they just negative vibes being experiences by your body?

Learn to control your experiences. And also. Look up "Mental Karate by Thumpasaurus"

Also I agree with drugs. But be smart about what drugs you use. I recommend CBD, THC, and Psilocybin. But always remember Timothy Leary's main point "set" and "setting" are the most important factors in any drug experience. Your mindset, and your environmental setting. Know what you're trying to achieve and be in a place where you can achieve that mind-change when you trip.l

If you have a decent relationship with your mother you should try to talk to her about it if you can. If not you absolutely need to either tell your current psychologist or find a new one, even if you don't want too, make yourself. They can possibly prescribe something temporarily to help you get your emotions in check temporarily to help you get back on track. That is how I had to get out of my. My doctor gave me some meds to help combat my anxiety for a few weeks and I managed to get a small foothold back in life and drag myself out of it eventually. But I had my mother to help me through it. Other poster is right though. There are proven physical and psychological benefits to exercise in regards to depression. Even if all you do is walk a mile a day or something, start there and move your goal post a little at a time. Don't look at it as "I have to get better" Don't make it one enormous task. Compartmentalize your goals. Breaking down your goals into smaller achievable ones can make it much easier and you are less likely to get discouraged. Best of luck OP.

Aim lower. There is nothing wrong with working "shit jobs" like fast food or any entry level hospitality job. Probably don't work retail as you may have to maintain a persona more-so than other jobs.

Any job is a good job mate, don't let the teenagers and neets on here tell you otherwise.

Any job you have hopefully will give you some self worth and the feeling that you did something today. It will also give you perspective on your own life which may be something you've lost without realizing.

If you have nothing to lose you should take a day off to just not do any of the things you would normally do. Take a journal and a pen and just go to the beach or to the woods or to the park and spend the WHOLE DAY just out there, enjoying nature and rwiting out every insecure thought you have. It reminds you that this society we created is artificial, just something humans put in place that doesn't actually matter. None of it matters. You're alive, there is nature, and you can take a day just to remember what it is like to be alive.

Just want to say I'm glad so many people are trying to help OP. Good effort Yea Forums. keep it up.

second this, don't give a FUCK about status, if you're surviving and you have honor in yourself (not pride, pride makes you an asshole) you're a good human

i have a feeling /b is now 2/3 reddit, 1/6 trumpcels and 1/6 russian bots.

Age and country? Will help if we know

22 Australia.

Unironically start lifting. It helps to vent out some stress and gets you in great shape, also it can rise your testosterone levels. After a while unless you are a complete incel get a gf or some slut to fuck and feel good about what you are doing. Drink beer like a man, smoke some tobacco, eat some real meat and fresh vegetables and not so many burgers and shit. After a while sleep comes naturally and you start to feel "normal". This is the phase where you might want to look for a job, you will find that it is much easier this time around.

Go to any other popular board and Trumpers are way more prominent than here. It's surprising.

You've got so much time if you're only 22. Basically you need to communicate with your mom about all this. Sign onto job agencies and get shifts labouring or whatever. That'll give you a job for now that doesn't require interviews. Then just take up a course or whatever in order to help with getting a job. Just take the first step.

I've been doing a lot of meth.

i have a friend who didn't leave his house for about five years.

he had a great deal of anxiety and agoraphobia (i think?) and just didn't leave the house.

he's currently a university professor, and overcame all of it. don't assume your current state is an indicator of your future state.

one of the things that humans understand poorly is their central nervous system status. you're very much in a state of fight-or-flight and you need to learn how to downregulate.

massage, meditation, exercise are all ways of potentially downregulating your nervous system. most of us are way overstimulated. you may just be one of those who have a "sentry" type nervous system- someone who is really sensitive to noise / stress, which is a great gift in many ways.

you just have to respect your gift and find ways to lower your stress levels.

am i having a stroke? what the fuck are you saying. take a handful of your opiates and solve your problems

Just so you know, thoughts of death and suicide/wanting to die/disappear are perfectly normal, and most people have them at some point or another in their life. It's when these start to interfere with your normal life and you start to focus on them that you should start to worry about it and do something. It sounds like you may already be at this stage so you need to get some help, whether family, friends, or psychologist/therapy if possible. Exercise every day and eat well. You'll find a way out.

This.

Stop masturbating , it goes away after a week or so

>smoke pot
>play vidya
>jerk off
>bang a hot escort on leolist
>music

Basically just self medicate with pot, sex with strangers and various hobbies to keep my mind of my inevitable death. Y

Microdose indica before bed. Kill the anxiety to let you sleep which will do wonders

Crazy to find out dany had brain surgery and was basically a vegetable during got filming.

Anyway. The solution to your problems is get off the computer. You spend hours a day and make the computer your home base. End that entirely

The things to take mind off are the exact things that put self in this in the first place.

End vidya completely. For a month.
Humans are supposed to socialize.
Video and pot etc have to be #5 in your life. Not #1 or 2. If you spent that time exercising or learning a language or hiking you will draw lifelong happiness from those.

Learn people skills and you'll crush job interviews.

How to win friends and influence people. Dale Carnegie. It works. Being hired for a job is mostly whether or not the interviewer likes you

Dont drop the soap

why do you fucking care what they think? Just say 'fuck it, shit happens'... there's no use getting all bent out of shape about it. You're not the only one and there are people much worse off than you. Also, it's not so bad being a solo type. Extroverts are overrated and obnoxious.

Not OP but I needed to hear this advice too. Thanks guys and thanks OP. You're not alone

All the Chad's left when people started spamming FB/IG/WWYD threads all fucking day. I myself just came here to see all the whiny little liberal twats butthurt over Trump being cleared of any '''''RuSsIaN CoLLuSiOn''''''

faggots.

I was in your spot a year ago OP.

Still don't feel great, I drink too much and smoke too much weed.

I'm slowly ruining my life, but I found its better to find enjoyment in the small things, as it's better than not existing at all, sometimes.

for instance I too enjoy video games, I play them most days and when I don't have work for most of the day, but toward the afternoon when the sun is setting, I take my dog for a walk and to be honest some days that walk is just as enjoyable as playing on my PC for 6 hours.

I find myself thinking most of the time that I hate people/society and I wish I lived like a hermit in the middle of nowhere, but sometimes when I actually leave my house and do things with my friends I occasionally interact with really nice people that change my mind momentarily.

What I'm saying is, you find yourself in a hole occasionally, you can either make that hole your home or find a way to climb out of it, I'm not perfect so I do both from time to time.

and then you're like 'fuck... should I use my last 20 bucks for gas to look for a job or buy a shit ton of ramen noodles so I can eat something for a while?'

OP, Mate check out Jordan Peterson, I’m currently reading his book “12 rules for life” and it’s actually life changing. I know it sounds bullshit and cliche, but it’s real.

Check it out, you can make it man

100 people grinding seeds into flour get replaced by 2 people operating a windmill that grinds twice the amount of flour.

1000 people painting books get replaced by 1 printer.

Where is the delusion?

The fact that a cheaper more efficient means of production is harmful to people and out society is fucked up beyond belief.
I have no solution, just super curious what our society looks like when automation fully dominates and there are far more people then jobs.

4-aco-dmt.
Do research
A lot of it. Then order online.

Therapy helps. Medication may or may not, but you very well may not need it.

Seriously, OP. Find yourself a therapist. I did, and it feels like my life might be turning around.

Just drink, abuse anti deppresents and anti anxiety meds. That should fix it.

Dude, you need to tell your psych about how you feel about your relationship. He's a professional you've hired to help with a problem, and he needs as close to absolute knowledge as possible to do his job. You wouldn't water down your transmission fluid so your mechanic didn't see it was low, would you?

Since money has become an all dominating uncontrollable beast, guess the subtle enslavement into narrow paths of living will intensify in the future.

Not OP, but feel the same
To all the people that recommend psychologists, psychiatrist, and therapist; how do you know which one to go to and how exactly are they helpful? I don’t know much about it past the Hollywood depiction, talking about shit makes you feel better about it with the occasional pills?

agree with this guy, but if you can’t afford a therapist like I can’t, check this out Jordan Peterson is a bomb ass clinical psychologist dude his shit hits home

The idea is that psychoanalysis is supposed to bring you closer to realizing what's wrong for yourself. That, or your therapist is essentially your tripsitter through dealing with bad memories, experiences, or harmful perceptions of yourself and you eventually have a catharsis. You have to have an idea of how you want to be a "better" person, but they can help you get there.

I used to like him a lot, but I feel like he's somehow changed since he's gotten big. Also, be careful of the alt-right slip n slide. Jordan Peterson means well, but some others have a bigger agenda than helping people help themselves.

I see a psychologist. You should know beforehand that a psychologist doesn’t have a medical certificate, and can’t prescribe medication. If you are looking for medication you need to see a psychiatrist.

Psychology does help. It’s important to know what’s happening in your body and why you’re feeling the way you are. The thing about mental health is that it’s isolating, and having the option to sit in a room with someone for an hour and just talk about what’s going on helps plenty. Even if you don’t put what they say into practise, it’s nice just to get stuff off your chest.

Thanks anons that really cleared up some things and sounds like something I’d want to pursue, insurance wiling.

Get help... Go to your doc, tell someone...
