do people on this website realize you can work out, have a job, have hobbies, eat healthy, and still be deeply depressed? i get that people are trying to help but it’s kinda obnoxious when people present these solutions like they’re easy fixes

Climate change is literally tearing our existence from the ground up and people are telling OP to distract himself from the problem than coming together and understanding we have to change something

Yeah sounds like you’re legitimately depressed. Been there due to bipolar so even tho my depressive episodes were rooted in chemical imbalance rather than actually being depressed about something, my life etc. i still know how it is.

I got out of them just because of my chemical stuff in the brain changing too probably, so I haven’t had to actively do something to get out.

What I find the best thing in the world to be is caring about life and yourself by finding things that you care about which optimally begins with the most basic things.

It’s hella cool to care about yourself, health and body cause you gain wellbeing and success in various areas from that.

It’s hella cool to find a passion that you can also strive for making it a career cause it fulfills you.

It’s hella cool to do those things. Like you can level up so much by work and dedication and caring about life and yourself that life is so fulfilling to live.

Like imagine being the hottest, best looking, most successful and richest person in the world. Life would be hella f***ing fun and fulfilling. And even tho you might not become the richest or hottest man in the world, you can level up so much to a point where life is extremely fun. Rewards gonna take time to show and you being able to feel rewarded, but man it’s hella worth it.

If you find the energy now (if you’re not depressed in such a bad way where the energy totally lacks) to put in the work to become a man that is able to live a fulfilling life do it. Work on your body, eat healthy, find an actual passion and nurture it by work to master it (there lies huge potential to find the best career for yourself, there’s ways for a lot of things).

I think the passion thing is the most important tho. There’s this saying that goes something like “however you do the small things in life, you also do the big things” and vice versa. So if you have a passion that you are absolutely obsessed with and put energy into it by work, you will put the same passion into the smaller things in life.

i get that pathologizing normal negative emotions is damaging but depression isn't something that "heals." its an inherent chemical imbalance that you will have to live with unless you take pills and s***. yeah you can fight and treat the psychological part but it'll still be there

That’s like saying you can’t treat cancer unless you get chemo

Take the pills or suffer, ur choice. And I assumed the chemical imbalance was a thing that could be regulated by your lifestyle, no?

rt. i know people think exercise is a generic answer, and i'm not saying its definitive. But I can vouch for myself even if its only a little it helps.

Nothing does matter, and that can turn into a liberating thought cause it just means go out and do whatever makes you happy, the consequences are finite (don’t do anything wrong or super stupid of course)
