Did lifting cure your depression?

Did lifting cure your depression?

Lost my GF over last semester and lifted angry for the next few weeks. Lost my stomach and never been happier with my body. Focus on yourself, user.

Changing my mindset helped me the most, I stopped hating my adhd and accepted it and chose to work in tandem with it instead of trying to condone to society standards.

Did lifting help keep the depression away, yes, but only for a limited time.

Note these are my experiences and each person who suffers will need to find what works themselves.

No, but psychedelics and buddhism did.
>tfw HPPD

no

Yes.

No it didnt. But im getting mired by chicks everyday so that helps

Yup.
Feels good while I'm doing it, and for a while after also mires feel good.
And if I'm really in a bad way I can have one of those two hour fuck everything something needs to die/i'm going to murder some pussy to workoff this whatever it is I can't move or think afterwords tier workouts.

Now I only feel mildly depressed for the most part and that can be managed with food sex teas meditation sunlight and games.

No, but it keeps it at bay. And that's fine by me.

No, but I got the confidence that helped me to go to my Doc and get my medicine.
Just try to improve yourself, it won't cure it but it will help you.

It never goes away because life is pointless and then you die, swallowed by nothingness. Just quit being a whiny lil bitch and live your life.

Kind of

It helped me overcome my drinking and drug problems. But then i lost all my partying friends. Now I have some social anxiety issues i didnt used to have. Or maybe I always had them i dont know i started drinking when I was 15. I realized Ive never been on a date sober. I used to go on dates and have decent looking girlfriends. I knew I looked like garbage so I had problem being shot down by chicks. Most of my girlfriends would tell me point blank that they only went out with me cause I was brave enough to bat out of my league. Now Im okay looking and terrified of rejection

No, but it helps.....alot.

Couldn't imagine where I'd be and how I'd feel without lifting.

If I didn't have my dog all those years ago and before I started lifting, I would definitely have killed myself by now.

But now, I have a house in a brand new city, a college degree and a hot ass mixed race gf to share it all with.

Legit, would have nothing without the weights.

Cheer up user, it gets better.

I have it too man, shit sucks. How do you cope with it?

Cardio's better for it
run away from the sadness

RUN AWAY
RUUUN AWAY FROM THE PAIN

This is only the first step down the rabbit hole

I wouldn't say anything cures it entirely. I'm 35 and have suffered from this shit since I was 10 but I've learned to control it with mental gymnastics and have developed an outlook on life that manages it.

However, since I started exercising 2 years ago and dropped a crapton of weight, I've noticed that it makes it a LOT easier to manage to the point where some weeks I hardly notice it. Then when I'm ill or have a holiday and go a week or so without working out - it creeps back bigtime. So tldr, yeah it definitely helps.

>cant catch me gay thoughts!

I kind of like running light with music but once I start to get tired it stops being fun. Still force myself to go farther because I feel worthless if I don't do it but I periodically burn myself out and lose some progress.

It is really hard to actually get better at anything when depressed, I can maintain but that's it.

no but it did lead me to getting a gf which did cure my depression

Read some stoics user, understanding the philosophy and applying it helped me to get myself together and worry less about the mundane shit that plagued me down

A healthy mind is just as important as a healthy body

It actually did

It is the worst how I can recognize I'm depressed because I'm alone but if I actually say it a bunch of retards will tell me "um no that's not it honey". Happiest I've ever been was with a girl and the saddest I've ever been was when she started to pull away.

No, but I actually look good while I suffer, which is all that matters to me.

Not really, but its a part of the process. Lifting gives me routine and discipline, and seeing results in more weights lifted and looking generally better helped.

Stopping browsing /pol/ cured my depression.

Yeah actually it did

This. I dont see how polfags think complaining online will reduce the power of the jew. The board is already infested beyond belief with JIDF and CIA agents as well as pornhub shills and redditors. Get strong, have kids, teach them good morals and that is more than enough to fight the semetic beast. That is the final redpill

No, what cured my depression was to stop being a fucking faggot and realize that you need to learn to talk to people to get them to like you.

This and cardio helped me.
