Keeping myself busy fixing other people issues. Alcohol inbetween. Meaningless sex.
More alcohol. Sometimes other drugs too.

I work out a lot. Used to turn to drugs and alcohol, but working out is much better.

>>690743525
Are you me?

I don't . I bathe in my own self pity without any drive to wake up in the mornings. I'm a worthless NEET siphoning money from the governemnt to feed my hobbies while living in a 1 bedroom apartment. I'm 26 and have never had a job, failed college and was a drifter for a few years. If You don't get hep, you'll end up like me. The only beacon of light from society's judgement is the noose.

Fighting depression is pretty simple once you figure out certain things. I recommend looking at Louis C. K. He usually puts a smile on my face.

i dont, at this point i cant tell the difference between it, and the rest of my life any more

>>690743178
I just realise after a while that what i feel is not what i am. I can look at my emotions from a distance, acknowledge them and yet not be controlled by what they tell me.
Meditation helps seeing things from that perspective. It doesn't mean you're getting cold or empty; just means you balance things out.

I take my medication and go to therapy because I actual give a shit about my mental health.

Woman, alcohol, Xanax, synthetic heroin in any form usually dilaudid. - All at the same time hopefully.

Not really great for the mental health but it gets me buy. Xanax for work, when I can't drink. Hydromoph + drink for after. women when I go out.

Shit is about £400 a week though. dillys are fucking expensive. gets me through

>>690743178
Antipsychotics, but I'm bipolar so I can't take antidepressants. At least not without going batshit crazy.

Why dont you fight it? Have you tried anything?

Read Eckhart Tolle ya fuckin mungs. Drugs especially alcohol only makes shit worse

>>690747023
I've tried fighting with this state for the past year.
Even my teachers and the school psychologist told me to go to therapy but i don't have enough money. I just feel like i can't do shit anymore, I even failed the year because I can't keep shit together.

I don't fight it, i cope with it. It's part of me, if I ignored it my brain would hate me, and there's no getting better for me it seems, i still have hope tho; otherwise I'd have already dived off a building into the concrete.

>>690743178
I take fap therapy.

OP, I don't try to fight anything or try to fix anything. I wasted a lot of energy trying to do that. Plus it will just give you stress, and imminent panic attacks.

My life is about one thing; getting revenge on a girl who painfully rejected me for being a loser. I'm gonna make my life so awesome and amazing that she'll beg to be with me. Then I'll reject her and laugh.

I figure my emotions are wrong about what to do when I'm in that altered state, so I fight to focus on something decidedly meaningless but somewhat complicated and take like 400mg of caffeine, like vidya or advanced shitposting. That way I can't screw shit up. Unless I'm at work, then I just let it keep me from engaging in my environment and move by rote.

By being angry all the time. My goal is to go Super Saiyan and kill everyone.-

>>690748236

I popped them, then smoked them, smoking is 100 times better, now I just pop them to feel normal, and smoke them for a buzz.

Wish I never started them, same with the Xanax, I'm on 6mg of Zan and fuck ton of opiates a day maintenance dose, just so I don't get WD symptoms.

But with all of that in my system, if drink 1/4 pint of vodka and smoke some I'm fucked up

You just have to realise, your life is shit.
But the world is AT LEAST as shitty.
The world's going to shit fast, so what
you do in life doesn't matter.

When you realize that, you can start your
own treatment. I usually treat myself
with weed, booze, and friends.

Treatments may differ. Find out what
works for you.

I like you anon.

>>690749235
would you like some ice cream, honey? have you run out of tampons yet?

Easy, don't get depressed.

Find something you are passioned about and jump into it.

>>690749891
Easy, be a little kid, that has no clue of the harshness of reality, while living with parents

I was depressed until I realized that for my entire childhood-adolescence-early adulthood (Im 22), I was solely fixated on the crappy stuff my mom used to do and say to me. I let bitterness, hatred, urge for violence, revenge, ec, envelope me. I also was obsessed with correcting all the flaws my mother would angrily point out about me.

But then I learned that she literally is just another mother that developed anger issues and was taking it out on a nearby target. I put too much weight on her words when she was literally just vomiting her emotions.

So, I was depressed until then. Now, I am just fucking confused. Because all my early years I was fixated on solely that, now I have lost it. Feel pretty empty and aimless. But at least I'm a lot happier? I can talk to my family normally, I am learning to connect with others genuinely and not walking around with a stick up my ass constantly. Lots of great things. I grew a lot.

I just wish I found some meaning to my life now.

>>690749235
According to how the artist drew those cigarettes, the finger hes smoking be inhaled from the nail-side.

Lift your feels away brahs.

>>690743178
>>690743178
Used to smoke and drink a lot. Then I discovered psychedelic substances could really help me work through it. I'm much happier and more productive now.

i sleep a lot.

>>690743178

you don't really fight it. you just kind of live with it. from time to time it gets better for a week or two.

>>690751005
This. I gave up booze recently and took up fitness again. I feel so much better. I'm cutting down on the weed too.

embrace it :/

>>690743178
i transform it into anger and find something actually useful to put that anger to work for. if ive been putting off building something, cleaning something, exercizing.

if the anger is caused by somebody i wait until i've done enough physical stuff that i can trust i wont get into a screaming match with them, even if they want to start one with me. I go to them, and I tell them why I'm upset. if talking calmly about what's made me angry makes them behave even worse, that tells me it's time to get myself away from them, even if i love them.

>>690751608
Good lad. I was heavily into drink and drugs until last year. Now I'm addicted to making gains. So much better for body and mind.

Magnesium 300mg and sport

Does anyone have OP's picture without the shitty caption?

>>690743178
try a high dose of antidepressants
then go have few shots and good night
works pretty nicely

>>690750711

I had something similar happen around that age, 22. It's a great, but kind of confusing feeling because you don't have that big ugly altar in the center of your brain like you used to.

my advice, start figuring out what cool things you would like to put into the world. That could be something creative like art, or inventing. It could be something as simple as being very dedicated to a job, taking a big adventure, as far as your legs can take you, or maybe letting yourself love someone, be loved by them, and starting a family. The family thing tho, it might be a good idea to wait a bit on that. do it when you're good and ready.
