    Actively seeking depressing content is a sure-fire way to stay depressed. What kind of sad circlejerk is this place?

    Get help. Outside of the internet, if possible. You deserve better.

    I just want to encourage anyone who needs to hear it to get help. It really helps.

    Your regular doctor is a good place to start, or even urgent care. You can feel hopeful and alive again. I know.

    I really know. Good things are possible for you.

      I’ve started on antidepressants and they make me feel better but they don’t stop me from wanting to feel bad

        That’s a great start! Good for you! Sometimes the medication needs to be adjusted, but more often there are leftover negatives thought patterns that ought to be examined.

        Counseling is the perfect sidekick to medication, allowing you to address root issues while the fog has lifted.

        Good luck 👍
