Mr.Mister Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 (edited) I come from a family with a history of mental illness. Severe autism, depression, chronic stress, anxiety... I feel so grateful to be healthy. Yeah, I have a chest deformity, I'm too sarcastic and grew up socially inept, but we are so lucky to be here in this unique time of history. Our problems is what makes us perfect. There is no need to be depressed. I dont think any words here will make you believe in optimism, because getting out of the depression trap is something that is purely experienced. May sound strange, but read books. Self-help, philosophy, science, history, anything but fiction. It helped me seek a higher power, not in a religious sense. Having a positive connection to the absurdity of the universe and this species is what got me excited about life again, and I found discipline in being the best version of myself. I changed my attitude so much and found myself stepping out of my comfort zone and making really awesome progress. I think through the monotous indoctrination of the public school system, we lose our natural love of learning. We get scarred and end up feeling weird during teenage years, hormones just making things feel more powerful. You are an adult now, its time to realize you are in control of your emotions. With awareness. My parting words my friend are this: This life of yours is too short for bullsh*t. This world is a playground, but be mindful of the other children please. Yes, im stoned.

Mcquiz Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Really? So you didn't contemplate suicide just because it is believed to be the "coward's way out?" But, I think you've already made a coward out of yourself by venting about it in a video game forum. Seriously, do you even believe that some random people in internet - who you haven't even met in real life - will offer you advice that'll sort all your life issues out? I don't think so. It's your effing life, you're your own problems. And hey, you're your own solutions too! Seeking help from random strangers is not gonna solve anything. Just go ahead and sort it out by yourself. Even if you fail in doing so, people may say that you've failed but no one will say you retreated like a cowardy bitch. Good luck! Your kind are the reason why people think that French are a bunch of rude assholes. But road out of depression is simple. Self improvement.

Oh, come on.. I was just telling him that seeking advices from random strangers is not gonna help. I don't get why people like you and Happyness think I'm being mean to Kfranchise. I've never been rude to people as I'm extremely easy going. And, oi, don't be pulling French people into this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people who sign up to those sites most likely struggle to leave their own houses! So talking to strangers on forums is the only way for some. Have you ever heard of a face to face discussion about depression? I haven't because it can bring the other person down, and the other person doesn't want more problems in their lives, at least in my experience. At least with the written word the objective stranger can get to the meat of the issue without much hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

universetwisters Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Don't kill yourself man, that would suck. If I were you, why don't you try out a new hobby? I personally do model trains. Model trains are awesome, being able to make a miniature world that you can call your own and control everything in it. Real fun, really takes your mind off things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

im_stoned Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Depression hasn't been the worst thing for me. I mean I get to sit on my couch and do jacksh*t but smoke weed all day. However my social skills are pretty much non existent at this point. I'm going to have to basically learn how to ''walk again'' Probably poor choice of words I just don't know how to say it. The longer you sit on your couch doing jacksh*t the more useless you become. I had to learn this the hard way. With that said I have a lot to look forward too. Honestly if I didn't get depressed i wouldn't appreciate a lot of the cool stuff coming my way real soon. I feel like it's made me appreciate life more as weird as that sounds. It's takes time but you'll get their. I'm not out of the woods yet but i'm slowly getting their. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGodDamnMaster Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I know how you're feeling man. I've been diagnosed with depression and anxiety and it's f*cking awful. It really ruins your life. No energy, ambition or positive outlooks on life. It sucks. My mom has it too and she's on government disability that it's gotten so bad. She can't even leave the house without feeling like complete sh*t. I used to be the same way, but I made the effort to get out of the house and get a job, lose weight and get accepted into college. I know it's hard, but the best advice I can give is what I did: tell the pain and the negativity to f*ck-off and man-up to take control of your life. That's how I got through it.
