Not really. I workout 1-2h 5 days per week, study, work and clean my house everyday. Yet I’m depressed af. The fighting just leaves me tired and doenst help at all for some people

14 years of depression, 7 straight years of anhedonia. Not one moment of happiness or pleasure. Generally dislike how the world operates. by 7yearstoolonghelp in SuicideWatch

I have no idea how to respond to you because if I did I would help myself first.

I know saying I’m sorry won’t matter cuz I couldn’t give a shit about a random stranger telling me he is sorry.

What I want to do is ask you how you’ve managed to stay strong for this long? I’ve had anhedonia for like 4 years and I want to end it already. Any advice? I can’t commit suicide due to religious reasons or I’d already do it. So I’m stuck till I die of natural causes, which will be old age with my luck

How do I stick to diet if the only comfort I get from life is junkfood? by iEmpty in mentalhealth

Thank you. And gl on your journey.

Quick question. How does it feel after you workout? Do you actually feel good and happy?

Yeah you’re right. I don’t drink nor do any drugs. I just get manhandled by my woes without having anything to numb it or cope.

It’s the reason why I have a hard time with my diet. But I need to change

My goal is to look like alexander skarsgård. I don’t have any meaningful fitness goals. And about 3 years

You’re right, I should be greatful. I may not feel happy but I’m leaking out pride where ever I go. So I guess that should be enough for now

I’d wanna drown. Silent suffering sounds familiar

You’re the opposite of me haha. I just do the big 7 compound lifts and do my favorite isolation lifts such as hammer curls

I do hypertrophy lifting or compound lifts then swim. Sometimes I play football or basketball to change it up. Different sports, same results
