Fix yourself. Everybody's life sux if they want it to. For those who believe, no proof is necessary. For those who don't believe, no proof is possible.

It’s a deliberating condition that is brought on by situational / external stimuli that you feel you have no control over. It can be as simple as living in a clean apartment. Your dishes are overflowing onto the floor and trash piled up so you don’t go into the kitchen. Eventually You deal with it and spend a whole night cleaning up and feel all good about yourself and swear to God your gonna use the dishwasher from now on (had one all along). But it’s endless vicious cycle and it isn’t just one thing it’s every aspect of your life. Your boss is threatening to fire you because you have 6 reports due you cram for a 90 hour work week get it all done feel great about yourself and back to fucking off again. The answer SOUNDS SIMPLE. just do little simple things every day but in reality you have these days you can barely move and it just isn’t that simple. It just isn’t. That’s depression. |

It's at least partially genetic. It's an IQ issue. My grandfather was a scientist who was quite brilliant. He also had catatonic depression back in the days when shock therapy was prevalent. Did some bad things to him. I'm a computer programmer myself. I'm not brilliant or anything but I won't say I'm an idiot either. Always done well on IQ and gifted testing. |

Economic depression can lead to personal depression if they think there is no way to do anything for themselves. Sorry I got a headache These are the times that tries men's and women's souls! May we come though it victorious! |

Anonymous User ID: 83693105 United States 08/11/2022 08:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People need energy to live their lives. That means food. People need to work and exercise in order to express life. That means purposeful employment. Something to have, something to wish for and something to dream. We are caught in a web of lies. The future doesn't have to be bleak but there are many working to make it that way. Read: Desiderata. Then read National Lampoon's Deteriorata. The choice is up to each individual to follow his/her own destiny. |
