When you get so depressed….

call a psychologist, then a psychiatrist. One for talking, one for meds (if recommended). You're not just lying to them. You're lying to yourself. The act of simply sitting down with a stranger and saying out loud why you are depressed helps immensely. And every time you do it it helps a little bit more in the aggregate.

You go take your dog for a walk!

Don’t run to a message board full of marginally to clinically depressed men. Go see a therapist or psychiatrist and get actual help.



If you won’t do that, take $40 to L.A. and release some stress.

Lately I keep imagining what friends and loved ones are going to say when I die. Damn depression has me on the verge of giving up

Yes because following behind an animal picking up it's feces it's whole life is super fun.

I feel your pain, as I battle this almost daily. I get suicidal easily.

First look into therapy. Treat that shite like a lawyer after you just committed murder-be as open and honest as possible. Second, talk to a psychiatrist. They can administer a series of tests to try and pin down a specific diagnosis, then treat with meds if necessary. It’s helpful if you can do both in one clinic.

Finally, look to see if tms if available in your area. That and meditation have helped me more than medication. It’s expensive though. In MS insurance only covers it for “severe depression “.
