Depends really, if it's meme internet depression which is really just sadness caused by being a failure, then the advice offered so far is good.
If it is the real deal then you wouldn't be asking this question since you would be aware that what you have cannot be fixed and that medication only turns you into a zombie.

for me, i just had to wait it out. When i was depressed, i did nothing but sleep. eating food seemed pointless, playing games seemed pointless, doing work seemed pointless. lasted for a couple weeks, no one around me helped me. They just thought it was a phase

Working out, eating well, having a rigid sleep schedule is something that works good for me. Practicing mindfulness has also done wonders for me, alltho I realize this isn't for everyone. You could give it a try with an app like Headspace or similar.

thanks mod

Drugs, routine, forcing myself to do things outside of my home. Mostly drugs though

go to a doctor
i got a script for anti depressants recently and i feel better than i have in years.

If its not some hard chemical imbalance in your brain which is rare, then the only cure for your depression is your state of mind.
Only you can cure it by changing and accepting your worldviews, life expectations etc.

Don't let it to take you down, to eat you out alive. Be stronger and embrace nature my friend.

Rock bottom is great. No better motivation tbhwy. Drink up, smoke up, isolate and stay in your head. Run all the people out of your life and lose everything you care about until you're about to lose your mind. Makes normal life seem like easy mode after you've seen what a self created hell is really like.

I feel like this. Medication has fucked me up and it doesn't even do its job of stopping suicidal thoughts. So I'm stuck having no energy no motivation only thinking about killing myself and I feel like I will never improve no matter how many times I go to a therapist or how much willpower I try to put in it. I have no idea how people have all this energy to spend on their job, I feel so spent all the time.

I don't wanna shower I don't wanna pay bills I don't wanna run errands I don't wanna play games I don't wanna watch movies or tv I don't wanna talk with anyone or hang out

I literally never want to do anything...I wanna get out of this feeling already

By crazy effort and sheer willpower. For me personally it was nofap, exercise, better diet, and meditation. I also stopped smoking cigarettes and cut down on beer.

Generally, self improvement is the key to loving one's self. You also need to change your outlook, as in depression isn't a disease but something you can conquer.

I hope you crawl out of that pit I once called home.

This one knows.

drugs. the good kind though.

in all absolute seriousness, take a psychedelic. eat some mushrooms or acid. it will completely change your perspective on life.

if you're adamant about legality, look into a ketamine clinic. they're getting popular lately and have a lot of glowing reviews from people who suffer major depression (it's like a monthly visit for ketamine infusions I think, something like that. not an everyday pill either way)

Depression is generally caused by a lack of Vitamin D OR a lack of a breakdown of vitamin D. When you get sunlight you absorb the vitamin D. this builds up in your brain. when it builds up in your brain, you become depressed. When you exercise (at least 20 minutes of legit sweaty exercise) it breaks down the vitamin D and turns it into endorphins, which makes you happy. Its the reason why animals and even cave people weren't ''depressed'' despite lacking all the modern day luxuries that are supposed to make us happy. Nature designed us to not be depressed despite running for our lives every day. HOWEVER we are now living outside of nature, so were going against what is actually 'healthy' for us.

Psychologically speaking, the best cures are to maintain a healthy mindset. having nothing of importance to do is no good, but having something impossible to do is not. the happiest people have reasonable goals that they can obtain but aren't too easy. then when they eventually do achieve those goals, you set up some new ones.

Sleep (sleep earlier and dont go to sleep on your phone), working out (at least every other day), finding people to talk to (even online but preferable in irl) has done wonders for me. Also meditation and picking up an instrument and continuing drawing.

I've been depressed for a year now. I started drinking coffee like 4 cuos a day. I know it is not the best solution but Im not gonna waste time feeling sad and unmotivated. Yeah it fucks with sleep and hearth but i dont give a fuck i have to keep going because the world doesnt care about me being sad Im the only one who legit cares about me. There are too many ways to die already wasting my life away is the worst one. Get w fucking monster zero cal chugnit down and start doing something.

Caffeine increases concentration, energy, releases endorphins. The downside is high pulserate and reduced cerebral bloodflow if taken much.

It doesn't go away, the trick is to stop thinking, just breathe and do things as they pop up in your head. Once you begin doing something simply breathe and stop thinking again.

I can't take it. I feel like I'm sinking deeper every day

Exercise, talking to happy people, cleaning, and enjoying nature

exercise, clean eating are all good. Cognitive behavioral therapy is ok, but i think really it's just about understand how your own thought patterns work.

Bit of an odd solution, but worth considering, is start taking cold showers. I know that sounds mad, but it seriously has a positive effect on your nervous system.

They are hell to endure, especially the first one you try, but if you can get through the first 20 seconds without turning up the heat, and fight through the wall, you'll find that afterwards you feel amazing..... almost euphoric. If you are feeling depressed before you have a cold shower, you sure won't be feeling like that after.

I see you are a man of culture as well.

it kills me
