There is only meaning to be found in God. Depression can only be stopped by theosis, which, in turn, can only be accomplished through union with the Lord, Christ.

We can supress traits wich could increase your chances to become depressed or traits that genetically structure your brain to be in some way (example: "you have the temper of the -family male line surname- 's").
So at least we could change some internal and inherent factors to make life a little more tolerable and be more positive towards the world whims
Basic citizenship income that allows you to pay for rent, food, minimal entertainment and alcohol (reduced alcohol tax for non-workers).

Is that why the Nordic and Benelux countries have such high suicide rates?
People need a sense of purpose and fulfillment.
Obviously there isn't a one size fits all solution for that.
>>28573339
eliminate social media
Depression is largely genetic, euthanize the depressed so they're the last medically miserable generation.

Develop sense of unconditional self love and internal locus of self esteem, practice real Indian spiritual yoga and meditation, eat healthy non GMO food, breathe deeply, spend more time outside, break any substance or behavioural addictions.
Depressed people, when is the last time you actually breathed so deep your belly expanded a few inched forward and your chest rose a few inches? Even long before I did yoga, I noticed when I quit fapping the breathing would get naturally deep and strong after 3 weeks and would consists more of full breaths int he belly rather than the shallow breaths in your upper chest. I suspect that most depressed people breathe very shallowly in their upper chest./

You don't, any more than you eradicate happiness. It's a part of life. If you mean clinical depression, though, the funding of mental health services would surely go a long way. As would a de-stigmatizing of mental health conditions and mental health care in the popular view.

It's not cold as fuck in the Benelux countries.

It ain't evolution if it's a human hand guiding it. Depressed people are potentially useful. They're used to coping with a shitty life so when times are actually tough they do better. Abraham Lincoln is an example of this: he was pretty clearly clinically depressed, but his outlook helped him to lead the nation through a grueling civil war that claimed 620,000 lives.

Depression is just an emotional state. It's an important distinction, because some people get the idea that they should be happy all of the time and never go through periods of sadness, which is wrong.

Drugs are indeed the solution to all problems! As an anon said yesterday: You are no longer depressed, you have become one with depression!
>>28573339
deprssion spelled backwards is nossioped which is sanskrit for unhappy reality which means the only way to not be depressed is do the opposite of this because it's backwards so lie to yourself all the time and lie for your ego and say the chick rejected you because she thinks you'd be the only person to fix her from this cruel world but she's gotten used to the cold and hates change

This. Taking my daily magnesium made me realize that I never had anxiety in the first place. Used to get random heartrate spikes (it'd fucking race past 160bpm at rest, had it measured at the ER even) for no reason and taking magnesium put an end to that. I took benzos and all sorts of psychiatric shit which did fucking nothing.
