Bruh, are you getting some counseling?

I say that because you can't just take medication without counseling, because the counseling is supposed to help
you with some direction - especially considering that medication alters you physically as well.
I wouldn't waste my time or money I don't have on counseling.

I help myself each and everyday.

Some of you have a pitiful view of mental health and obviously view black people that have admitted to having a mental illness as weak and helpless and unfit to function in society and I hate that stigma. That's not me. I've made countless threads on mental health to try to educate and help myself out.

Bruh, I didn't say none of this chit.

I just asked if you're getting some counseling. I didn't say "professional help", just counseling.
And I didn't call you "weak", "helpless" or anything like that. You just pulled out your Jump To Conclusions Mat.

That's my fault for trying to understand. Let me go fucc myself and leave you alone...

The real problem is people think you can "just do xyz" it's no were near that simple if it was it would be done.

A lot of people are kind of depressed but they don't know what it is to be in despair for no reason. People think because they were really depressed at some point and up and changed that it works like that for everyone.

Legit chronic depression doesnt work like that and it's a constant battle... always with ups and downs.

If you got out of your depression then you don't know what it's like to be depressed for real, doesn't matter what you have.... in life it's going to hit you and make you :mjcry:

How you can handle it and reduce the intensity of it is key.

I can admit this thread was some bullshyt, and it probably never should of been made.
:whoa:

Nah breh, you ain't alone with how you feel ESPECIALLY on this board..hell, even I have issues myself and I work in mental health.

This place is littered with wounded warriors who vest themselves into this forum like it's literally apart of their lives. It's a place to vent, to disguise and to explore without prejudice because they can't adequately accomplish it in the real world. This is pretty much anywhere in the internet where people mass congregate and honestly, there isn't much wrong with that until you become so locked in that you further fukk up your ability to relate to the real world. However, I think when people really start talking about their issues in a serious format...it can be almost as good as talking to a physical person, AS LONG AS the responses nurture positivity, healing and are conducted in truth. While I don't care for people vesting so heavily in the thoughts of online figures, I understand why and know there's more underlying...people need to talk, especially black folks, when it comes to this. The depression, self loathing and other possible mental health symptoms show themselves in the constant black women vs. black men threads and other standoffish posts regarding race, sex, etc..it's all channeled negatively, which is why I don't think TLR is the best environment for such a conversation to be had since this is a dumping site for bullshyt.

I understand...but fucc that.

This is what happens. Everybody has their problems and whatnot, but if you can't see past your pain
to ascertain when somebody is trying to reach out to you then you can't be surprised when nobody
reaches out to you.

This is why I don't have no muthafuccin' friends, because everybody sucks.
Thanks for reading.

Depression is a disease. It's not just "feeling bad on the internet" as some people like to think. I get on breh alot but I need to back off. He needs support more than anything. We cast off people we can help and we welcome with open arms people beyond repair.

Any support that isn't directing him to in-person counseling, group etc constructive tools to deal with his situations and moods isn't going to help him to sustain/address his mental well-being in the long run. No untrained individual or group, especially in a forum setting is equipped to help him walk through his own problems, that kind of unstructured (and text-based) support has a definite ceiling, for anyone with mental struggles.

@Sagat you said your dad is a doctor-does he have any contacts in NY or old school buddies who can refer you to a therapist?

bet half the people on this board been told they got depression, they diagnosed me with manic depression.
its the easiest clinical "disease" to diagnose.

enabling people to wollow in self pity just makes things worse.

LOL heeeeeeeeere we go.
