Every few months I go in and out of depression. I never quite get out of it, the closest I've been to happy in many years is just being numb and not taking in anything around me... just being sort of a robot.

It's getting worse every time. It doesn't have anything to do with drugs, which I guess is good because from what I hear that can fuck your life up pretty bad. Not that I don't use, I'm just 100% sure it's completely unrelated.

Some days I randomly just wake up all orgasmic and happy for no reason, and then soon enough feel like shit again. But that's once in a blue moon.
 
all i can say is that ive had a problem with depression for as long as i remember

and ive noticed if you are socializing regularly, exercising most days and getting outside and eating well then it puts the odds of feeling okay higher

i kinda wish i woke up happy sometimes

to the future!
 
same thing happens to me and is happening right now. I'm getting to the source of it psychologically and am really starting to wonder whether i am bipolar or not. my father is and i have a rather large family history of mental illness from anxiety, depression to schizophrenia. Great genetics i must have.

routine really helps me. staying so active i can't think about it also works okay. Today i realized i just haven't had any fun for a really long time, no release, relaxation or anything. Everything i have been doing is for work, someone else or in preparation for the future... maybe it'd be a good idea to take a break from everything and try living completely different for a week or something.
 
Why rush to diagnose yourself with something you possibly don't have? Maybe your diet isn't great, or you're not getting enough quality interaction with others (emotional as opposed to shallow convo), or not enough exercise? Or maybe it's none of those and infact you're just seeing things as they are.. I mean society sucks fucking balls you know :)
 
Are you living a life that you want?
Not even close. Could change it with one thing that I'm kind of sitting on right now. The reason I haven't done it yet is it's either going to make me happy forever, or make me want to kill myself.

Who said it wasn't because I don't get enough interaction? That's part of it.
 
If you're not happy with your life, change it. Even if there are risks, it's always worth it if you're miserable right now.

dude, if you have chronic depression, you don't need a doctor to diagnose that for you. That's one of the few mental illnesses you absolutely know you have without expert opinion.
 
i think lots of people forget how things add up. Bad eating, lack of excessive, not using your brain, being lazy, not enough sun, to little water...

By them selves just one isn't a big deal but add all of them together and you can really mess your self up... a healthy lifestyle can do wonders for people.
 
I'm waiting for a certain event to happen and it'll either all fix this and I'll be a happy fucker for the rest of forever, or I'll jump off a bridge.
