I don't agree everyone taking anti depressants because of that

My friend know damn well her depression cause by traumatic s*** that happened to her and yea she going to therapy n s***. I don't think her or other people using these d**** thinking they going to cure this chemical imbalance

no

You do this everyday? How dramatic is your mood change before and after?

what are the odds that the environment had only gotten cleaner since leaded gasoline

it's thought that pollutants are to blame for rising infertility/sterility, I'm sure these PFAS, nano plastics, plus your local flavor of pollutant (mine is a jet fuel spill near the underground aquifer that 1mil draw their water from) are really f***ing with our bodies

to think that these things have no effect on our brain is ridic, but i don't say this to downplay other stuff that is also a huge contributor like the exploitation of the poor through a fundamentally abusive economic model

fellas i am sad and it is no fun

damn so what’s the cause of my depression then ?

Yeah that would explain it

how you always the sanest one in every thread

I’m losing weight, off soda, noticed i feel more attractive. Mostly feel the same in terms of depression tho

idk if i believe this.

Get into a daily routine, find new hobbies, get at least 30 minutes of exercise a day, try to spend an hour or two outside, set goals to achieve even if they're small, increase human interaction (not online)

ktt brain rot got most of our brains. We gotta cherish the few that are unscathed

ktt still the best forum

that's interesting usually exercise or general lifestyle improvements are the top suggestions for beating depression

There definitely could be a biological or genetic reason for how ur feeling

Personally I was depressed when very stressed

I have heard depression is rage turned inward.

Maybe i just have deeper rooted issues that need to be solved through therapy

Not for long....

I'd suggest magic mushrooms but those can make things worse they're very unpredictable

That being said psychedelics have been the best tool for introspection that I've seen/used

Therapy is ok but u need to find the right doctor

i have many times

its been the go to cop out for many for a long time but its over now

1/6 adults in England on anti-depressants. Holy.

I’m pretty sure if there’s something wrong with your body it can lead to depression easier

i've been microdosing for 4 months, every 3 days
on-off-off-off-on-...

yeah, i feel good, more motivated and happy to do my things (work and study)

Very slowly lmao

If I had to live in England I would be depressed too 🤢
