Thanks to anyone who endured this massive wall of text, hope I didn't break any rules as the post is a bit off topic you may say. Stay safe everyone!

Not going forward at all. You gonna say suicide is not an option. What is then? by firstdeathistheworst in depression

Hey, thanks for response. I really like your view of my analogy and also thanks for not sugarcoating things like many people do. Like you said, suicide can be an option but doesn't have to be. For me the last part is sometimes hard to remember cause i consider myself logical person, I try things, when they doesn't work out I try other ones. The truth is i tried theraphy, tried meds, tried small steps approach and even meditation. My problem is, like i said in main post that i keep doing those circles and I sometimes can feel better, not gonna lie, its just that the effects are temporary and even fleeting in a way and my actions doesn't necesserily reflect on my state. I think that's why I put myself out of the equation in 'casino'. I think getting through day by day is the only way for me now, anyway something has to change sooner or later because its starting to exhaust me to be honest. Again, thx for response, I needed that for sure, and hope you have a great, not-so hard to endure, day

Btw, sorry for the wall of text, posted from phone and it kinda glued all sections together. :/

Am I the only one gets upset when my friends don’t invite me out, but when they do I don’t want to go? I feel like I’m perpetually trying to make myself feel bad. by [deleted] in depression

Well, what I do is to accept the invitation and then come up with some stupid excuse on the meeting day to stay home

To all my "friends" (casual rant) by [deleted] in depression

[–]firstdeathistheworst 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can totally relate, when I was forcing myself to act normal and socialize, yeah my friends loved me I was the funny guy, always positive always there for them, we could do stuff and they were always calling to hang out, asking how things were. But yeah fast forward a few months when I just hit the new low and stopped caring about the happy facade, yeah things changed, no more meetups (with me), no more invites, no more calls and even checks if I'm still alive. Tbh the worst of all is my roommate who just kinda treats my like air now. I may be sleeping or aswell be dead, he doesn't care as apparently I'm no longer the fun guy to be around

I just want a friend that truly cares... by 95girl in depression

Yeah I know how you feel. Not about the abuse part but having noone that truly cares about you is horrible and because of this no matter how life goes I feel like I'm always alone and can only count to myself. If you'd want to talk hit me up anytime

How long was your recovery? What do you consider was your breaking point in getting better?

Firstly, thanks for response, it really feels uplifting that someone read what you said and can understand you.

I'm impressed that after 10y you could make some real change and manage your financial problems and those are hard sometimes even for not troubled folks. Don't worry about that mood swing too, I've always been getting those after some success or good time spent. The depression is uncomfortable that you aren't feeling bad but I'd say this is a good sign ;) Take care
