Dating app or just dating, you might want to back off of that until you feel positive about yourself and who you are. Dating, don’t jump into anything until you know who you are and what you want.

This is the classic catch-22 of depression. Loneliness makes depression way worse, and depression makes forming relationships way harder, keeping you trapped in a cycle. Being depressed makes you significantly less attractive to women, and coming off a breakup can absolutely destroy your confidence.

At the same time, nothing helps one get over a breakup and restore confidence faster than some consistent casual sex. It’s not a permanent fix, but it can give you a valuable shot in the arm to boost your confidence and will power to help you make the changes you need to make to really move on.

However, if you put yourself out there and fail to score, it’s only going to make things way worse.
