You go to your doctor.

I stop looking for comfort and attention on an anonymous image board and pursue counseling

Who cares this world is dead anyway

start with light exercise

Pull the trigger scoob

But you are a special human, you are too complex and superior to be affected by your nutrition, mental and physical habits and sleep time. Right?

This'll sound nuts, but I've been using medical herbs (read: what most of the world's population uses)
Funnily they work and don't have the side-effects of prescriptions.

Not even OP but clearly you don't understand how depression works

Man you make it sound so easy, what if you do that stuff anyways?

I had severe depression which made me lose 1 year in highschool, I spent that year mostly at home playing vidya and going to Cred Forums ( which helped my english a lot saince I never did a course )

Sometimes I still feel like shit, but yea, keep telling yourself you are too complex to be cured, uou clearly are better than everyone else, your depression is special, your pain is unique, you're THE special snowflake, humanity would be blessed if it ever got another human being like you on the planet

Keep waiting for the cure to come out the door while you do nothing

...

By playing H-games

since*

you*

fucking typos dude, now the autists will make fun of me and ignore my point completely

kek

how can someone that doesn't even have the motivation to play vydia suddently go "hey guess what depression is stupid let me run 3km to feel better

>Everyone with depression experiences the same thing
Let me guess, you feel like crap every now and then so you're "severely depressed."

I don't have depression but several loved ones of mine do. Each of them have radically different ways to cope, but there is no such thing as a "cure". Taking care of yourself certainly helps but that can only do so much.

Not that user, but you're right.

I don't have the issue with the special snowflake thing anymore, but it's difficult to interact with other people because it all feels kinda fake where I'm at at the moment, y'know? Everything else is taken care of, but human interaction's pretty darn important and it's the one thing I have issues with.

I do every one of those things and I still frequently feel like complete shit.

I wait it out. If you are confident that your determination is more powerful than your depression all you have to do is wait for it to be over

I hoard and organize digital data. Pic related is my picture folder.

Food aswell but that's a very bad way to deal with it as you fuck yourself up even more in the long run.

You should probably try to seek professional help, if you haven't. Good luck, user.

I did and do all those things.
I wanted to die in my sleep, and still do. Now I'm on antidepps so it's not as bad, but everything is still, for lack of a better word, shit.

I've done everything you suggested and more. I've taken more pills than I know what to do with prescribed by my psychs.

Nothing makes me feel better. The only reason I am not dead is because my death would negatively affect those around me in a serious way.

I wake up and look at my revolver every morning wondering when I will finally snap and just blow my fucking brains out in some distant forest.

op here its not self-diagnose depression I was tested by a psychiatrist they said I have Bipolar disorder they wanted to put me on meds but fuck that shit man they are not gonna drug me like a sheep..fuck man maybe ill feel better with the pills..does anyone take meds?

>People like OP are the ones flooding this board with all kind of not videogame related shit, from ABLOBLOBLOBLO I'M SO UNHAPPY to VOTE (INSERT CANDIDATE HERE), ruining videogame discussion for everyone

I genuinely wish you get the courage to commit suicide.
Seriously. I wish you were dead. Both of us would rest from the other.

>but fuck that shit man they are not gonna drug me like a sheep
you're fucking stupid

do it faggot

Here, have the actual clip.

dev with us on agdg

Shit, i was diagnosed with that too, I should be on meds for 5 years now, but I always stop taking them because I end up feeling like a angry zombie for months

It helps but it doesn't erase

Leave home. It works. I only had $400 dollars in my pocket too. You'll be fine. Life is only a shitty MMO after all.

not op, but thats exactly what i'm planning to do, hope it leads somewhere

your reluctance to kill yourself hurts the entire human species

>human interaction is important

Different levels work for different people. 90% of my social interaction is through work, and that basically amounts to short polite exchanges. I don't have real life friends and only a handful of internet friends. And I'm in a good place, both in life and depression wise. I'm not craving interactions nor do I get that urge to hide away in my house. Don't worry too much and just find your comfort zone.

Whatd you do once you left? Tell us, user. I wanna hear your story.

I like you

I started meds. Treats depression and anxiety. Now not only do I pull ballsy stupid shit, but I don't even want to kill myself. Life is on an upswing, anons.

Stop being pathetic and work on fixing your problem.

If it's beyond your capabilities, see a doctor.

Yep, because exercises, sleeping habits, and mental/physical state rule your body

its pure ignorance to think you will perform your 100% if you ignore your body, your mind and your body are connected

by doing exercises you are making your body burn fat and hormones, by not eating shit you are avoiding sugar rushes which fucks with your dopamine. thats science

I said that I basically missed a whole year of my life, lost all my highschool friends, and a highschool year, its ironic you think I don't know how depression feels like

maybe there is no cure, but there is treatment, the problem is not the disease, its the pacient, if they never leave their confort zone they will never outgrown their problems, simple as that. nobody wakes up and thinks
>GODAMN, I FEEL AWESOME, FUCK DEPRESSION THIS MEDS ARE GREAT

they take some meds if they feel like its necessary ( I did ) they change their lifestyle ( takes some time ) results show up, its a daily battle

I feel it too, I'm failing at college because I'm starting to feel like dogshit again, I live in third world country, when I see people from america or canada for example I envy them so fucking bad, everything here is shit, but I'm trying my best to change, I still feel anxiety sometimes, and my english is shit when I try to speak since I have nobody to interact with

There is a shitload of people in this world, you simply are not alone, someone else is feeling, have felt, or is gonna feel the same way you are feeling right now, and sometimes you just gonna start to activate the ''fuck it'' mode and not care about people at all, just do your life, kill yourself by killing your ego

you are not hotshit, and even hotshit people still fuck things up, don't be afraid of fucking things up, everybody sucks in the beginning

But I guess I'm not reliable since instead of studying/some of my hobbies I'm wasting my time trying to help people online

I can have crippling anxiety and depression. I also might have hormonal issues that may be contributing to my mental health issues, or may be the result of them. I'm not sure, it's all one big vicious cycle now.

My doctor put me on Prozac though and things look better at times. I have major sinus issues which may or may not be because of my anxiety/stress and my eating habits; i.e. drinking a shit ton of soda and not enough water.

Work through it, user. I believe in you. Gotta hang in there.

>I live in third world country, when I see people from america or canada for example I envy them so fucking bad
Why everywhere else is turning to shit too

>On lithium , celexa and risperdal
>going on 8 months
>Lithium count is still below normal in blood tests
>literally taking 1500mg a day
>cant hit .5

Medication has never helped and seems that it never will. I don't know why I am alive anymore. Psych and shrinks can't help me apparently.

I've lost weight, got fit, got a girlfriend, done hobbies, done fucking everything else and i still see no reason to continue living other than the act of leaving hurting those around me.

>do this
>still thinking about having no reason to live as soon as I go to bed or as soon as I'm not doing anything
I mean sure it distracts you from it since you can't think a lot while doing shit but that's about it.

What did you do next user?

>lithium
Like, the batteries?

alcohol and weed and cigarettes and sleep

drugs.com/lithium.html

It's apparently the holy grail when dealing with bipolar issues. That said I am some fucking weirdo who is abnormally tolerant to all medication.

Play games like Persona where I have friends and a girlfriend and not an addiction

I'm the user you replied to

Try to read

>How to Win Friends and Influence People

Social interactions are just a skill, don't take things personal, and like any skill you need to practice

By reading this book I learned how to be more social and making people like me through nice selfless habits, but I'm toxic cunt by nature, I think my taste is superior and shit like that, but your negatives traits you need to avoid, at least when you are meeting people

you can also be the ''friendly asshole'' that guy that left and right fucks around with you, but its your bro and its by your side

Its normal for me to not truly connect with people, most people are either retarded or fake as plastic, there is not much to do except play around them


But if your already get off your confort zone and the ''snowflake syndrome'' you are doing heavy progress man, don't give up

I drink and draw.
Feels good being mediocre at something

>mfw retards self diagnose themselves with depression and then shitpost on Cred Forums about it for attention

fuck off

I feel like that too, lithium seems to make me so apathetic towards everything and everyone, it doesn't help my motivation at all, just makes me really energetic but still see no reason at all to do anything.

i just want to move out and share accommodation with a few like minded people. I'd go out with them to force myself to socialise and hopefully due to common interests we'd make something together too.

to quote Ernest Borgnine: "I masturbate a lot."

I don't even want to masturbate, it's a fucking chore. I basically do it for maintenance every 12 days because if I don't I don't get to sleep.

>have a few close friends who are looking to all move in together
>want to join them so I can get out and socialize more
>can't because poorfag and 50% of my income goes to paying off a car
feels bad
feels bad

>got professional help with depression I had been keeping a secret for years
>no longer have the desire to kill myself because I'm too interested in culture of entertainment, food, and people in general and fear death too much
>still lonely and unhappy alot but trying to see what I can do about it

>friend who I hadn't seen in a while, who I thought was stronger than me kills himself
>earth has become a little lonelier

>blogpost on Albanian cow-tipping imageboards and post picture of frogs

I wonder if he made the right decision

losing a friend like this is probably one of the worst things, but don't follow suit user

>born in a third world shithole (whatever it's Brazil herp derp 2008 memes br br gib moni etc)
>battling depression since always
>work as a barber, making enough to pay bills and some vidya

>month by month it's less effective
>will probably spend my whole life in this third world shithole

I don't even know.

what else? come here to funpost.

i've been to europe and it sucks go to argentina or chile

easy way to make money without experience?

gib money predates 2008 by about 4 years or more.

I come home, fap, eat and then go to sleep praying to god I never wake up. on the weekens when i have no work I just drink til I pass out.

>take prozac for 3 months
>after first month begin having the worst fucking nightmares of my life
>wake up drenched in sweat often times shouting/screaming
>have fucking sleep paralysis set in and freak the fuck out as I am not-asleep but not-awake but fully aware of the shit going on around me imagining shadows and shit skulking outside my room
>literally shit myself that night
>begin hearing voices calling my name throughout the day
>basically stop sleeping entirely toward the end of the second month

Fuck prozac. I wouldn't subject my worst enemy to that kind of experience.

I think honestly I just wanted to talk about it. I'm still too afraid of death, but I don't think I'm going to stop saving retarded reaction pics anytime soon.

not video games

fucking kill yourself

Channel your depression into an intense self hate then push it deep into the recesses of your being so you can't even feel any more then invent a persona and be an ironic asshole all day then come home and hate yourself and then use that hate as fuel to become the best at video games by beating the shit out of yourself every time you make the smallest mistake

YMMV, bro. Not all medicines work the same for everyone.

Prozac already saved my life like a dozen times.

So Europe sucks and Argentina is the place to be? Like, wtf.

Can you get out of my head

that's funny because I pretend to be a likeable happy person at work and out with """"""friends"""""

Actually yes, Europe looks like congo rn i literally rate argentina and chile higher

Go to a counselor.

Look up local clubs for things unrelated to video games and go to them regularly.

Listen to depressing music (AJJ) and read depressing books (Catcher in the Rye) if you're starting to recover and need to revive your emotions.

Get a new hobby.

Learn to program and get a nice job and make friends with coworkers.

>make friends with coworkers.

Work out, eat better, get some decent sleep.

You'll still feel empty and dead inside, and always will, but won't feel that incredible lethargy to the point where turning off the computer to go to bed or the like (pissbottles and friends), which I mean we've all been there. It sucks.

Don't hold out hope for ever becoming a social butterfly, but your health is a large part of enjoying your hobbies.

Must be nice to be able to pretend to tolerate people.

When you're in the software development field, it's different.

If they're cool people, you'll want to hang out with them. Then you'll realize they're all as depressed as you are and you'll all help each other get through it.

Get a new hobby

Counselling is the only way. I am depressed as well but I am going to counselling and have been prescribed anti anxiety Medicine because my palms are actually sweaty and I find it hard to breathe when I am in public.

You just hold it in for the next however many years until one day you may not feel like shit.
What helped me was joining the military. Boosted my confidence and its nice to talk shit with other people.

good goy these pills will fix you

what should i use to learn programming. i've tried before but all it tells me is to type some shit without explaining what im doing

Why are you so hung up on the special snowflake shit

go outside

youtube.com/watch?v=zOgR4NsidZg

You should take a break from the Internet my little friend.

Learning programming is closer to learning a craft or trade. They'll only be able to show you the basic ropes and the rest will be seeking guidance as you work on your own projects.

I watch Kamen Rider or Sentai

The key is to not give a shit about anything while you project your 42 layers of irony on everything as you watch society struggle with little problems such as terrorism or other bullshit like feminism

yeah ,but i dont get what im learning though

because you're fucking STUPID

take a class.

im just asking for help , no need to be a dick

figuring out what the hell you wrote actually does is something that happens when you're bugtesting to figure out why the code didn't run like the book said it should

And you probably won't for a while until pattern recognition kicks in and it "clicks".

It's very sink or swim approach.

Listen, try code academy. It's pretty much what you'd learn in a class.

Where is that cute girl , the one in your picture?

In her classroom.

>my distraction isnt working anymore
Welcome to the real world, everyones depressed. Just because you cant handle it doesnt make you special.

I want to eat that mushroom.

Only a very small percent of humans are actually depressed. Quit projecting. Just because your pitiful existence is eternally dulled, does not mean it's the case for all people.

i'm not quite there yet. someone tell me a good current multipayer game i can buy off of steam so i don't wanna kill myself this week

>multiplayer
>good

If thats the case and 99% of people dont feel like me, big deal. If 99% of people dont like grapefruit juice and i do should i jump off a bridge?

All you have to do is quit projecting.

...

>game
>good

Go for a run

So you're grammar doesn't work either?

Wew

Kill me, Pete

Get a job, shove down your bullshit, and make friends.

It worked for me, it'll probably work for you too.

and then once your friends become usless throw them away

Mushrooms, if not Ayahuasca.

try battlerite senpai, its very fun.

Well, you're not wrong. Gotta cut off severe liabilities, but some negatives are worth taking.

Yeah, it's pretty easy to hold down a job and do nothing but subsist while being a walking ball of functional self hatred. Sabotaging nearly every potential human relationship is just par for the course.

Fuck it. I'm beyond done. Will sleeping pills and booze do the fucking trick, or is it a meme?

just off yourself off of a tall skyscraper, no pain

alcohol, usually marijuana too but i have to pee in a cup for the next couple months.

I just want a gf who shares the same interest
Ive been a bit sad later because a girl that browses 4chanive been talking to online for 4 months straight has been offline for 27 days

that desperate to believe you had a girl talking to you? pathetic desu

girls are useless distractions,focus on your goals first

haha no girls on the chan
weve done voicechat before
Who says you cant do both
