[SRS] Depression Discussion and Support Thread Part II

[BigTimePlayer]

Feel like my mental health & health issues are affecting me from being with anyone. I feel like I'm not well enough to be with anyone, but it just gets to me at times. Not sure wtf I'm supposed to do in the predicament I'm in anymore.

[BigTimePlayer]

no point to life if u arent getting laid

gonna hop back on the xans and oxys

Don't abuse that chit man. Heard those should only be taken in severe cases & can become really addictive.

What is with the misc depression thread, having to neg left and right.
Well tonight I went to bed early after a chit run/HIIT workout, got up thinking it was at least 2am which would be good because I would have less time to eat/kill, freakin 9pm. God this sucks.

[300BLK]

Tried this Alpha Lipoic Acid, apparently good for many different problems/symptoms....doesn't seem to do anything for me. On the other hand, taking a digestive enzymes supplement before every meal seems to be slowly helping. Symptoms seem a lot less apparent since I started. Makes me want to drink less too.

[bicephurls]

I have lurked on this thread before...never thought I would see myself posting in it. It's funny, some days I think I have major depression and have thought about suicide (but would never under any circumstance do it, just poisonous thoughts), and some days I feel "alright." I found myself today saying "oh today was about a 3/10 on the scale, pretty ****ty," which got me thinking, when was the last time I've been consistently happy? Probably not since I was a child. But thinking in this fashion can't be natural...I need to start appreciating the little things. I just remember that as time goes on I get stronger and stronger and I've accepted that life will be chitty the majority of the time (aka very stressful) but it's worth it for those blissful moments. (just planned a spring break trip with my buddies to South Padre; having something to look forward to helps with my daily struggles tenfold). Just appreciate what you have, especially your family. Was thinking about my mom and brothers today (my dad a little bit too, but he's a different relationship dynamic), it's just so weird to see how my family has evolved; I can tell everyone wants to be really close and be a normal family but there is some sort of barrier that keeps it from happening. Seems like both of my brothers suffer from some sort of mental illness, as do I, but we never bring it up. It's like we are as close as you can be without being called distant. Really feel bad for my mom though, I want her to be happy so bad and she struggles so much with the daily routine.


That turned into a personal rant, but I just wanted to let all of you brahs struggling that there are people who love you. Life is beautiful, we just have to find our stride. Falling back into old habits is never good (alcohol is my vice, which I am ashamed to say at age 20), but there really is something out there for everyone. Fate has big plans for everyone. I just go through my day and make sure that I respect others unconditionally, respect myself, and do what makes me happy - as long as it isn't self-destructive. I think it's also interesting how everyone has their own pace. I feel outside pressure from everyone, especially my father, to lock down a prestigious job before college gets out. I want this very badly also, but sometimes you have to find yourself first.


Good luck brahs, we will all make it in our own ways. Don't lose faith

no point to life if u arent getting laid

gonna hop back on the xans and oxys

Terrible mindset man. Getting laid doesn't matter at all honestly..no one knows if you are getting laid or not unless you open up to them about it, plus it's nothing to be insecure about. Very overrated aspect of life IMO, there is someone out there for everyone. Find the girl you truly love and getting laid will just be a little side-gig.


I feel very odd trying to give advice only being 20 years old, but I feel a lot of the pain in this thread as well.

I'll add 10 years to that argument. Those pills are causing your depression not helping

"Find the girl you truly love..."
Sorry to burst your bubble, but we don't live in those times anymore. I had to learn the hard way, trying to look for that wifey, sloots gon sloot. Plus even in a relationship, sex is a big part of it, a healthy relationship requires sex, if not in a relationship, a healthy spirit requires sex. Unless you develop some kind of reject mentality, you won't be truly happy without a sex life.

Way to burst my bubble bro

I wouldn't take the misc memes and posts in general too seriously around here. It is a shame how hypersexualized the culture is.

[hidingwithmusic]

I've returned to college this semester and ive taken my first exam today. I think I made 100% on it. I don't think that I have made that on a math test since elementary school. What motivated me was making a C on a homework assignment. I've made all A's on every homework since. I'm feeling good and I'm ready to bust my balls for the rest of college.

[Sanguivorant]

Still depressed, mostly about my height. Since I can't change it I just have to develop ways to cope with it.

I found myself a mentor that can help me when times are tough. He's my French professor at the University, around 5ft, pretty successful, has a wife and two children. People in the class seem to respect him.

I also went to see a counselor yesterday, which wasn't helpful because they could only pair me with a female, and to explain the kind of chit I have to put up with to her was not only difficult, but she couldn't understand how I feel and that it's all in my head. Yeah, because the snarky comments towards me, glances and sneering is totally something that I come up with in my head. The patronizing tone that most people use towards me is imagined. Getting bullied and picked on by the same person throughout highschool because of my height was all a dream.

Anyhow, the point now is to figure out how to cope with being 5'4 for the rest of my life. Once I just accept myself and accept that there are some things I will never be able to achieve, I will start feeling happy.

Why not try someone else? I'm sure there's plenty of psychiatrists and psychologists in your town.

This couldn't be further from the truth man, please don't think like this.

I don't get laid all that often anymore, but recently I went through periods where I was extremely successful on tinder and in bars and I wish I could tell you I was really happy, but I wasn't. It's not all about that at all.

[300BLK]

Yeah well, no. Just like you need good food, valuable entertainment, secure shelter, clean water...basic needs. Sex is one of them. Your life doesn't have to revolve around it, but people who don't have enjoyable sex often, are 9 times out of 10, miserable if not depressed people.

[Sanguivorant]

Nah, counselling is not going to work. They're not going to tell me anything that I myself don't already know, seriously. The only way is to figure out how to cope. It seriously sucks being stuck in a child's body. It's almost as if I will never know what it feels like to be a man, and to be respected as a man.

Those are the main issues I have with my height:

-Not feeling masculine enough because of it.

-Not being taken seriously by women, seriously the last relationship I had was when I was in highschool. A girl is willing to phuck me yes, but doesn't want anything to do with me romantically and it sucks.

It's a hard concept for people to grasp. You won't become happy just because you're getting laid, but you're not going to be happy if you aren't getting laid.

How tall are you? (edit: just saw you said you're 5'4''). I'm short, have dated plenty of short guys. Confidence is > height for me. It is a deal-breaker for some women, but not ALL women. Try online dating. State your height. Don't hide anything. There are plenty of shorter girls out there who date short guys and vice versa.

[Jackz244]

Those are the main issues I have with my height:Not feeling masculine enough because of it.

- I stand in at 6.1.I dont recall when i was 5.4.3 grade?I can curl 100+ lb biceps.Not many guys on this world can do that.I have 21 inch arms.Meaning my arms are bigger then 99,99% Of all males.Meaning when i walk people notice that.People notice me.Iv been attacked many tiems.Woman assume im just ''meathead''/I suffer from depression,resulting in life.Life i had.LIFE.get it.Life.You suffer mainly because you are shy or you wish you were taller.I had a m****ing life handed to me,where i witnessed death and destruction.That ****ed up my mind.MIND.MIND.GET IT.Woman in this country want some stable guy with good money.Most are Gold diggers.Iv been approached many times by Gay dudes to do them.Because they liked my physical size.But whats good.Really.God gave you small height.God gave me most.But mind is tricky thing.By the way my therapy starts in about 10 days time

[Jackz244]

Honestly if you havent been once to mental institution.You arent depressed.Ok.Been there,done that.Been to shrinks.Done that Depressed because you are short?Cant get pu..y.And thats why you need support?Wtf

sure sex is important but i'm much happier right now than i've ever been in my life and in my 20's i was having sex pretty reg so you're phucking wrong *******.

Not every girl is a cheating slut for fuks sake. Plenty of people have healthy relationships, where they love their girl and she loves them. Get off the misc

And you know that after one session?

It's a hard concept for people to grasp. You won't become happy just because you're getting laid, but you're not going to be happy if you aren't getting laid.

Been on a dry spell for a while now, still happy. The only reason you think that is because you're either a virgin or have had sex only a few times

Honestly if you havent been once to mental institution.You arent depressed.Ok.Been there,done that.Been to shrinks.Done that Depressed because you are short?Cant get pu..y.And thats why you need support?Wtf

Gtfo with that attitude

[coozapalooza]

I still think the 9 out of 10 number is a little exaggerated. The misc is not representative of the entire population. There are also a lot of people comfortable in their own skin, or can find happiness elsewhere. It's not a healthy place to rely all your happiness on.

As I said, I have been very busy with work the past few months and haven't had a lot of time to go out with friends or anything, so I haven't been getting laid lately. But there were periods not long ago where I was getting laid multiple times a week by several different girls and I assure you I was no happier, and even when I was feeling happy it wasn't because of that.

[Sanguivorant]

And you know that after one session?

No, I don't know but again it's a last option, and even the counselor that was with me asked me, "How am I supposed to help you?" It's not like a counselor is going to grow my limbs or something. I'll keep going, see if it will make a difference, though I did request that she pair me up with a male counselor who was <5'6.

[Aaronza]

What is the action that a general doc is going to take if I go in and tell them about my suicidal thoughts?

....

Your problem is your attitude, not your height.

What is the action that a general doc is going to take if I go in and tell them about my suicidal thoughts?

There's a chance she will contact the police and/or your parents/family. They may put you in an institution against your will. It all depends on how severe she thinks it is

[BtchW8]

[QUOTE=300BLK;1421595391]......agree to disagr
so you're saying I was happier when I was getting laid?

[MrDevereaux]

Does anyone else on antidepressants find they kill your sex drive? It's almost non existent at the moment. I guess it could be low T as well, I don't know. The only time I seem to get good solid wood is during the middle of the night or first thing in the morning. Fukking sucks.
