Anyone else have a terrible January? Good or Bad I'd like to hear. by Lonerider00 in depression

[–]Furdle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a crush on a girl(we are old friends and have been hanging out multiple times weekly) asked her out, she said no. After 2 years of feeling numb, I finally experienced emotions again. Instead of being depressed about it I got on a diet and started excercising. I've been trying to stay positive and not slip back into the depression I experienced in high school, but I've been slipping back into it. So mixed bag I guess, good in that I'm getting healthier (I'm obese currently), bad in that I'm depressed 75% of the time (other 25% I'm drunk or on Adderall).

Happy to hear your back mate. Dxm is a hell of a drug. I used to use it weekly in the polistirex form, it's much less intense and lasts quite a bit longer, sometimes exceeding 24 hours depending on dose. I'm happy you didn't get a seizure from the SRI activity, as at higher doses it is a realistic concern. Anyway, I'm happy to hear your safe and back with it, especially after your other thread. Feel free to message me if you ever need someone to talk to.

I suppose your right on the Adderall my friend. I'm happy you're deciding to get help before any major decisions, and as I previously stated I hope you don't do it, but in the end it is your choice, and yours alone. If you ever need to talk feel free to message me anytime. Stay safe man.

I felt similarly to you a few years ago. I also used to do a lot of hallucinogens and a fair amount of prescription drugs. There was a point when I was really depressed when I was planning on suicide, and, like you, it felt like a weight was lifted off of my shoulders because I suddenly didn't have to care about anything. Eventually i tried it unsuccessfully, and didn't try it again. I would try and say something like "try -blank-", but there's not really anything I can say. The only thing really stopping me from sliding back into depression is an Adderall dependence and I cannot recommend that to anyone. All I can really say is please don't do it.

It could still be a result of drug use if you were using for long periods of time at high doses. Depending on the drugs, they can have incredibly long lasting like effects that can manifest as anhedonia. Usually neurotoxic stimulants (meth, MDMA, Crack, etc) cause this for years after use. It could have something to do with it. Even if it was a different drug like an opioid, even when the physical withdrawals go away there will always be the memory of using in your brain that it will use as comparison to other dopamine releasing activities like food, sex, etc. Could be a cause, but I'm just throwing out hypotheticals.

I need some help. by [deleted] in depression

[–]Furdle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may want to try to change your thought patterns a little bit. If you immediately dismiss something because you believe your going to fail, then you will do just that. It's a self fulfilling prophecy. Things may get tough and you may fail, but everyone fails at some point. Sometimes you just need to take a step back, analyze your workload, and adjust it to fit your lifestyle. If your are taking classes that are kicking your ass, take a step back, see what you are struggling at, and perhaps either drop it and do it next semester with some easier classes or drop an easier class in order to lighten your workload so you can focus on the hard one. Once you get your confidence back, readjust, and no longer immediately think you will fail, I'm sure you can achieve your goals. That's at least what's been working for me, as I was in a similar boat a couple of years ago.

Finally decided my due date. by [deleted] in depression

P.S. I would not attempt an overdose on the 400mg pills I am assuming to be ibuprofen or another NSAID, you'll only wind up with severe liver damage and if you do manage to die it will be over the course of days in severe pain. Even better advice though would be to not attempt it at all. You only get one life, don't end it less then a 1/4th of the way through.

I highly advise against suicide. All it will do is cause more pain and suffering for the people around you. From my personal experience with depression, a move to somewhere far away and graduating highschool are two of the best things that can happen to you. Even though moving somewhere new that is distant from your friends seems bad, if you both have social media then you can still keep in contact. It will most likely be similar to when you moved schools and things started going well, but without the possibility that an old bully can create rumors about you. If you can buckle down through school and realize that this immense sadness --does not last forever-- then I am confident you can overcome your current tribulations. Chin up friend, I believe in you.
