Do any of you ever get sad or depressed?
If so, what do you do to overcome it? Or do you just relish in it, let it wash over and it automatically disappears over time?

i feel close to giving up on life cuz of my external circumstances (mostly money problems), but just the fact that there's so much to do and see in the world stops me from leaving. Plus gaming , and the idea of seeing my loved ones be sad which I'd hate...those stop me as well.

Yes, every day. It doesn't help that people don't understand nearly enough what it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ like.

Every moment I don't distract myself with something else is a moment I can fall into stinkin' thinkin'.

How else could I drop 3000hrs plus into a video game in a year? And try to be helpful on the forums... it's just to keep my mind occupied.

Er, well... with my condition it's kinda different and more severe than just depression.

If people are legit depressed, they should talk to a friend/family member. If it's really interferring in life or giving people bad thoughts than they should probobbly see a doctor.

Sad? Sure. Sometimes an old photo or possession can trigger sadness, for example yesterday I was looking at a family photo taken when my mother was 19 years old, and it made me sad for a little while. Sadness will pass if you just endure it, maybe think of a happy memory to offset it.

Depression is a whole nother animal. I was severely depressed from age 17 to 21. Never did seek professional help, it would probably have been better if I had. After four years of it, I became angry enough to break out of it, and the anger eventually smoothed to healing apathy.

Not saying that would work for everyone however. My advice is to get professional help.

depressed, all the time. sad, when i think of how my loved ones would feel if i did something to myself. unfortunately i dont really have anyone that i can talk to about my metal wellbeing, including my loved ones, so i think discussion topics like this one are great for me because it allows me to talk about it a little bit even if no one is reading this. it also helps to know that i am not the only one struggling with my mental health. i cant overcome what i am going through but i normally try to distract myself from my own conscious by trying to make peoples days in video games. single player games arnt enough of a distraction, i still find my mind wandering in negative thoughts so i prefer multiplayer games with voice coms, such as csgo and r6. i do my best to act positive on the outside but inside im hurting. i am doing my best to not give up and you should too. maybe you could also try multiplayer games with coms but just please dont give up. by just posting this discussion topic you let a lot of people know that they are not the only ones dealing with depression, so thank you!

Not sure how long it'll last, but I've finally got some motivation to jump into a game and try to mitigate this ♥♥♥♥.

This is one of the most relatable things here, thanks for sharing.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥, guess I can't play a game right now, gotta go visit for someone that passed the ♥♥♥♥ away.

Yes, I used to be a /doomer/ but something happened that changed my outlook. Being in the hospital for 6 days this summer, being violently ill and not knowing why I was feeling worse instead of better and worrying I might need even more surgery, and a "minor" complication (debilitating pain and nausea for 5 days after internal scar tissue ripped) helped me realize that life isn't so bad. I now feel like I want to get up and do something. Unfortunately, coronavirus means I cannot. I don't drink as much anymore though.

I've been depressed all my adult life. And will probably stay that way until I find a woman I really like who's willing to love me back...

As for how I deal with it? Listening to music, playing computer games, sleeping, and the company of my cats...

I used to be depressed until I decided I wanted to get myself out of the mess I was in.
Through wisdom it shall give you comfort & hopefully, answers, and you'll find true hope in that.

Depressed? Once years ago, then i became the storm. Sadness? An unfamiliar feeling.

Ah.

So basically with all that text you explained that you actually don't know what depression is. Neat.
That whole message might describe the ego, super-ego, and id, more-so than depression, but it has some relevant application to understanding what is going on psychologically.

Sometimes you just need to appease 1 thing & it might be something that isn't what your conscious mind thinks it needs to improve its emotional-state at the moment - in part because the conscious mind tends to look at things more like puzzles to be solved & like all of your problems need to be solved at once & also right now, in order to make yourself feel any better.

...which isn't actually the case, but its easy for people to misinterpret / incorrectly assess their own emotional needs in this manner.

Despite the fact that the scope of my problems is pretty huge, I can usually handle depression by appeasing some primitive desire.

Right now I want to eat breaded chicken. There is no breaded chicken to eat here.
(A fresh bean burrito would also be pretty nice but... same deal.)

That's not happening. That's NOT AN OPTION!

...so, I'll have to just get through it.


When I'm not so depressed that I want to just curl up & die, I usually can find myself, somewhat without realizing it, gently singing to myself...

Right now I seem to be attached to the melodies of Figaro Castle & Coin Song (it's pretty easy to shift between the two, depending on whatever is exactly being felt, at any second, because one is simply a key & tempo variation on the theme of the other.)

Whether it be the break-up of the conscious / ego, sub-conscious / super-ego, and unconscious / id - or something more like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfYbgdo8e-8
...either way, perhaps that gentle singing is one part of my mind trying to comfort the other...

Artistically, I would accept this as the correct interpretation & even have a way to portray it but it will be a long time until I am able to finish such a work & will probably get a lot of backlash for it due to "self-inserts"... oh well. :winter2019sadsnowman:



...I guess that's good enough to press the "Post Comment" button on, but I'd also like to address the other situation I alluded to of being so depressed that I want to just curl up and die... I find the only remedy for that is sleep - even if it's not currently a time that is correct for sleeping - but I'm usually in no mind-set to think about sleeping when this happens. If I am not also angry, then I tend to curl up in bed (if possible) and listen to River Twygz Bed Extended, until I fall asleep.
If not River Twygz Bed, then something else like "10 Hours of Redeads Moaning", "Crown Dungeon", "Yoshi's New Island Title Screen", or something else comparably awful.

When I feel awful, the only music that "gets" me is something that sounds sufficiently awful, so I do not listen to anything good sounding, not even a depressive, minor-key, song - because when I feel awful enough, I feel so much worse than even what those traditional "sad songs" express.
