4 years later and I still feel this way.
Man I’m thankful I can see my depression coming up before it get here fully, I can prep a lil bit.
Something ive noticed though is outside of therapy - which I am endlessly grateful for - I do not get a lot of sympathy about the stuff I go thru. Sympathy might not even be the word. Therapy has shown me how nice it is to speak a little and feel heard.
I suppose it’s part of being a man, and I’ll also acknowledge that I’m in a great position compared to others, I just wish it didn’t have to be this way.
It be feeling like everyone matters but me. It’s like people are dead mad at me for feeling down. I didn’t even know that was a thing.

but that shyt is dangerous though.
You just mid-key, inadvertently created a new movemente and uoeno it.
Sad Boys, we in it!
If we hurt, my diss while hurt in unison .
this could be very therapeutic and meditatively/soulfully unwinding, if we can collectively share our internal struggles, this can surely be a pathway to Neosporin-ing our traumas, struggles and inadequacies.
Just saying, albeit with modest delaying (cuz i didnt see this thread until today)...
I couldn't help but notice your pain. (Your pain?) Yes, it runs deep... SHARE IT TO A BREH!!!

You don't know shyt.

Here's some things that have helped me.
1. Deep breathing for five minutes at a time, go longer if you can, but start with 5 minutes. Find a nice comfortable place. Sit down. Breath in through the nose and out through the mouth. Keep doing this. If you're mind gets distracted that's fine but always return to your breathing. It can help to repeat a mantra. Look up mediation mantras and find one that makes sense for you to repeat and keep your mind settled. Focus on the present. For me, this helps with stress.
2. Write down how you're feeling. Just sit down and write all of your worries, fears and stress triggers out of your head. Sit down and write it all out. Whatever has affected you in the past, whatever you're worried about in the future, insecurities, fears, just write it all down. Be honest with yourself. No one else will see it. After you're done. Read what you wrote. Delete it. At least I've deleted mine. It might help you to keep it and return to it at low points. Remind yourself of who you were when you wrote down all your darkest thoughts. See how you've changed. Is it for the better or for the worst? What can you work on? Do you still feel as down as you were?
I hope this helps. It won't stop you from feeling down ever, but you'll have an outlet. However, maybe these only apply to stress? Still, try it out.

I swear I hate this this shyt
Its fukked up because being depressed, its a moment where all your resilience, your mental strength, the positive strides you've taken, don't mean a damn thing.
In that moment, you have no power over the situation
Ive experienced 2-3 such moments in the last month. Every time its like a tsunami hits, and it don't matter if this time my house sitting on a couple stilts.
Failure feels cumulative, like its part of an overriding narrative
Anyone know what Im describing?
How do you cope with those moments of anxiety, fear, hopelessness and even vulnerability?
How do you face it in the moment? And how do you recover afterwards?
depression is just for Narcissists who can’t fulfill their fantasies.
First off. Yall don't know shyt. I have no family. All of my brothers were murdered and I'm alone. Hold up... word to nipsey
There is more...
