Bench, not enough.

Anxiety and depression, not fixed yet... slightly better than it was.

Training and getting my diet in check has helped a little with the feels.

I know you probably got that answer already but there is only one way: you have to get out there man.

For years I was like you struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, classic stuff. One day i've had enough and I decided that finally I would take responsability for my situation.

Slowly but surely I started taking action ; talking to people, getting out of my comfort zone, taking hobbies and even approaching women at some point. It's like a domino effect, once you start taking small actions your confidence increases as your brain gets positive references.

So you get more confident and the whole process gets wayyy easier. The hardest is to actually start. Trust me it will suck but you have to learn that YOU are ultimately in control of your happiness and thoughts. It's all up to you. You're a man stop acting like a victim. Great men go after what they want and they aren't afraid of failure for they know failure and pain is growth. Women get to play the victim card and rely on society.

Be proud of being a man and start taking action now. As Ghandi said : ''Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.''

Get out there and and enjoy the grind. Good luck.

>How to get over depression and anxiety?
I shitpost on /r9k/. Nah, just kidding.

Anxiety has mellowed with age. I still feel anxious when I talk to strangers, including ordering pizza delivery. But it's not nearly as bad as it used to be.

Depression is basically a sign of intelligence. If you're not depressed, you're a fucking idiot.

>Depression is basically a sign of intelligence.

What if you're intelligent and rich?

Kys

Make me, tough guy.

mdma

Didn't help me, I work, excrecise, pretty OK diet, yet lately I have crazy mood swings from top of the world and suddenly I drop into pit of despair... I can't control it no matter if I socialize, talk to people, even went on dates and had a gf I still can't get rid of these swing, even considering anti depressants.

Any advise still would be welcome.

Shrooms could be the answer to your depression. It works like magic for me. Also ketamine but is harder to get and expensive in comparison.
I heard people say before but I don't know about that. I did mdma recreationally when I was younger and I wanted to kill myself up to 1-2 weeks after doing it. Maybe there is a therapeutic dose or something

You might be bipolar

2pl8ts 4 12 reps

Omar went vegan?

You helped.

What if, I newer felt like doing anything? I go school, go to work, workout and etc just because I got use to it. It's like a habit for me. I newer felt excited about anything, I newer was really interested in anything. All my life I just that everyone else does, and just do enough, newer more.

>I newer felt like doing anything
so what, there are things you have to do to better your life.

just do them

Maggots that don't know what depression is actually like always post this lmao

It seems like you have clinical depression

>t. never locked himself in his room for months at a time doing nothing but watching the same cartoons over and over again only leaving to shit and answer the door for delivery

kill yourself faggot obviously life isn't worth living.

Things that helped me:

- Lifting
- Cardio
- Eating clean
- Meditation
- Doing a course at the local community college (leisure or professional)
- Not smoking
- Not doing drugs
- Not fapping
- Not drinking (this last one I'm flexible with depending on the circumstances).

being a sack of shit doesnt mean you're depressed you waste of space

this is like me desu

I've never felt happy though, I never feel excited never anything

I don't like anything
how sad is that

>whaaahh I get sad sometimes and I don't like it when people to tell me to take responsibility for my actions so I try to belittle them by implying that I'm sadder than them

I'm . What are your goals in life right now? What do you truly want? Be honest with yourself it can be girls, friends, money, peace of mind whatever. Track what you really want in your life right now and start taking actions toward that goal. I had those mood swings as well where I would feel fine some days and trash other days.

Through introspection I realized that it was because I actually didn't do anything to get what I wanted. I was only going through life on auto-pilot going to the gym, working, etc. while trying to feel ''happy''.

It's much better now and I feel much more energized. Also, remember it's okay to feel like shit sometimes. Nobody can feel on top of the world everytime. Accept the fact that right now you're feeling likfe shit and that it will pass.

It's not about being sad, dingle bopper. It's about having a chemical imbalance in your brain

lmaoooo

Actual depression isn't based on where you are in life you dimwit. Look at Robin Williams, he killed himself even though he was super succesful and doing what he loved.

You were just a piece of shit, so obviously when you stopped being a piece of shit you stopped feeling like shit.
Thats not what depression is, thats being a piece of shit.

I never even said anywhere that I've ever suffered from depression lmao, you're a fucking idiot.

yeah m8, which I was only able to overcome with SSRIs

now I maintain a healthy life style lifting and eating right and cutting out all the horseshit like drugs

I still occasionally feel like complete dogshit but for the most part I manage it without SSRIs

Robin Williams was a drug addict and didn't take all the steps towards managing his chemical imbalances

I should add the first thing I did was see my doctor and get medication & therapy. Those allowed me to do the things that managed it better. If you're somewhere shit like the U.S. with a joke healthcare system that Trump's about to make worse you're boned I guess.

wish you guys would lead your advice with "get help/meds" instead of being a second rate greg plitt

meds help getting you in the habit of taking care of yourself which does most of the work in managing your brain.

Take pills like she did.

Stop watching porn

I know my goals and I taking action towards them, even when I have this bad mood periods I try to snap out, it's just sometimes everything seem so pointless I really trying to engage myself in order not to fall but sometimes it's just gets me...

I just realized, at this very moment, that I have no reason to live and want to stop.
That the only thing keeping me alive is my family. The tyranny of love that keeps me chained to this world that I can't escape.
So..is there anything fitness related that I can do right now to take my mind off of this or smooth things over in my heart and head?
It's starting to get to me a bit. lol.

>she will never camwhore again

why live

just kill yourself faggot obviously you fucking hate your family and friends

Only correct answer

i don't think i should right now
i have to wait for the right time

Lifting won't make you stop being depressed.

At least I just enter an "uplift depression" state where I want to kill myself but I'm positivist about suicide, like "HOT DAMN, I WANNA KILL MYSELF!" instead of "AWWW I WANNA KILL MUHSELF...".

Anxiety is LITERALLY just getting out there, though.

Stop being a cookie cuter

intense regualr excersise might be the best treatment for depression. antidepressants also help of course, but only excersise has all positive sideffects.

I usually just go and lift. It helps me forget about my depression for a few hours. I'm trying to stop watching porn because I've heard it fucks with your dick and it also makes you more depressed. Its fucking hard though. I love to watch those JOI/POV videos, where they don't show the guy/dick. To me those vids are more "personal" and it feels like your the one who is in the room with the women.

I know its fucking pathetic, but I think the reason why I watch those kinds of videos is because I'm lonely as fuck and those women give me some kind of connection. I know its beta as fuck, which is why I am trying to stop.

>and it feels like your the one who is in the room with the women.
talk to a real woman man, that shit is sad.

drugs/herbs

How old are you?

I try man, but I'm so bad with women now. It was a little easier in high school because most of the girls I talked to were all aspie fucks like me, but now that I have gotten older I've realized that I really have no game.

No women my age wants to talk about the internet/memes all day.

23

Thanks big guy

Arguing with gf about dumb shit

Got me in my feelings now, time to go listen to new Drake album and do push day.

What are my internet friends up to today?

You sound bipolar. Get sure to get evaluated properly by a psychiatrist. If you have bipolar or bipolar type 2 (a milder variant of bipolar) you won't be good with a regular anti depressant. You'll need lithium or lamotrigine.

If you have a regular depression then anti depressant and therapy should do the trick. You can't exercise away a depression, the same way you can't exercise away cancer. Though I'd recommend working out anyways as it sure helps, but doesn't cure.

Don't listen to this pharmaceutical shill

I have type 2 bipolar disorder. Depression and anxiety are just things I've learned to live with I'll never get over them. And I'm on 4 different drug therapies but they change over time.

Lifting is the only constant thing in my life that I actually enjoy.

Dont fuck this up nigger,just dont.
You wont find a girl like this again.

>not being type 1 master race

This is actually exactly what me and gf were arguing about. She wants me to consider taking meds because of my mania that comes every couple weeks.

Fuck anti psychotics they make me sooo sleepy and store fat. Also make me feel so dull and blah.

Besides, being manic is fucking lit

How long does it take for the meds to work?

zoloft

I do all of those except mediate and I only fap once a week, still ended up getting depressed.

Depression and anxiety?
I talk about it openly

I've met my share of sad rich people. typically more fucked up than poor people unless they're self made. And then they're the type who's never satisfied.

Is that you Kierkegaard?

Mindful Meditation

It's been shown in studies that it can reduce anxiety and stress, which may or may not be related to your depression.

For depression it's a long road. It stems usually from childhood for some, other cases arent impossible though. The best thing i feel like i did was to meditate and read No More Mr Nice guy by Robert Glover: 7chan.org/lit/src/Robert_Glover_-_No_More_Mr_Nice_Guy.pdf

also reading models by mark manson and applying the general aspects to everyday social life.

Generally social life is one of maslows basic needs, which you might like to read up on.

Knowing what a root cause might be to your depression and talking about your problems to someone such as a therapist or to a therapy group can help, it's nice to know people are listening to you.

Good luck user, you'll beat it.
