by working out, that post workout "high" is the only thing keeping me alive

Stop caring about things you have no hand in.
Start doing shit you can change.
See the depression as something intended to stop you, and be the mature and strongwilled man to counter that feeling.

I was depressed for years, from about age 15 to 20. I can still remember the day that I "snapped out of it". I was doing my usual moping around about how nothing ever goes my way, and how everyone hates me, then I came to a realization. Nothing goes my way because I have no skills and the only time I apply myself is on a whim, and I then give up before I can learn anything, and no one likes me because im insufferable, and I never want to do anything. Truly, just figure out what is causing your depression, then figure out how it's your fault, because in all honesty, it almost always is your fault.

I don´t. I sit and wallow until it passes, then get on with stuff again.

i want people dead

I am a 25 year old user suffering from chronic anxiety, stress and depression. My default state is to be stressed and anxious - the few moments where I can be relaxed and not a worried emotional wreck are very precious to me. I am 25 year old KHV, very ugly.


Cultivating self efficacy is crucial. Does it really matter if your life is shit if you can change it for the better? If you have the power to change your life then you do that because the only alternative is to rot.

Mindfullness is also important. Too much time is spent wasting thinking about anxious and depressive things. Learning to clear your mind. let go of everything and just enjoy the small things sometimes is very useful.

Also limit internet exposure... it really fucks with your mind.

I live in 3rd world country.
I live in grounds with roomates.
I motivate all with IED.
If they not leave house before 7, bomb in room go off. Not big bomb. Only filled with screws, marbles, small plastic explosion.
Already kill one.
We are not all going make it.
You either do or don't.
When I first need motivation 3 years ago I was laying in bed think what do in life.
I am unhappy. Out of shape. Papa killed. So I decide if I don't change I kill myself.
3 years later I not kill myself. Only roomate.
Allah willing, I will make it.
No more skinny boy. Big arnie first blood killer.

I dont know much time i still will endure, but i try to live one day at time.

Basically i do for my mom, i dont want her to be sad

Im big guy, so big as my pain

Im 21 and probably been depressed since I was 16 or 17. Got so bad that I literally didnt leave my room except to make coffee or go to the bathroom or eat. I got down to about 135-140lbs and im 6’0”. After that it got “better” but only cause I stayed stoned all the time, then I switched to alcohol. Ive been sober about 10 days now and while I’m still depressed im starting to feel motivated to make changes I know are necessary in my life. I hope we all make it out of our own personal hells bros.

try to spend time with family. try to get sunlight and not binge on junk food and porn. i'm not always successful but what can you do. the depressed brain has a will of its own. sometimes you just have to lie in bed and let it pass, like a common cold.

Anyone got man in mirror meme?

conversing with people honestly takes all my sadness away just enjoying talking to another person is something special and should be done every day its really a great thing asking someone how their day is or what plans u have on
like u and everyone else are the same right why not talk about that and what u might have in common u cant do that stuck inside all day on

That could be years. I'm already 2 years off 30.

I don’t. I avoid doing things I don’t want to do. But I tricked myself into liking my job and woking out, so I only do those two things now.

>im gonna look like a sick cunt in the coffin

I don't think i just keep going. Thinking will not solve anything, just do it (TM) and don't give a fuck.

It’s better than being at home alone doing nothing meaningful. At least there’s something to be gained

stay strong frogposter, we're all going to make it

Keeping a flexible fitness routine helps. I don't always do it at the same time because I'm incapable of maintaining a schedule for long but I always do it. I don't enjoy it but I don't dislike it. I don't really have fun or enjoy things anymore but I still get satisfaction so thats a big part of why I lift and exercise. Think going on a roller coaster vs climbing a mountain. A different type of fun. Results don't care if youre depressed, if you put in time and work you will make progress and gains. It's better to be a depressed loser whos in shape than a fat depressed loser.
