Depression Combat Thread

[Cloutius Maximus]

I do most of the shyt in the OP combined with exercise regularly. But my self destructive tendencies, procrastination, compulsions and need for immediate gratification basically wash any progress away. 1 step forward and like 5 steps back every damn time. Im going to finally make an appointment for CBT this week and get that ball rolling this month i need help brehs

i'm starting with nofap and meditation

I'm mellow, got some action last night. I ain't proud of it. It really does relieve you of built up stress. Rather just have a gf. I just need to practice discipline to get these certs and resume looking good. Also get back to music.

My main reason for relapsing on Alcohol is because without drinking i would never go to sleep. I don't know how yall do it. and no fap. lol man that's BS. I ain't saying you have to go at it all the time but that shyt is natural as fukk. I have a girl and i jerk it. I get it but i really don't.

Im not gonna lie, I've been depressed as hell lately. I fukking hate it out here in Denver, CO and I wish I never moved here.

Now this Coronavirus has made me realize how much I hate it here and want to move.

Been doing DJ sets on IG to get my followers up and I feel like it's pointless.
Ever sicne some racist white cracker that I used to be friends with got my Twitter account banned out of jealousy (that took ten years to build up) I'm forced to build my IG account from the bottom and I'm reminded of that when I hop on the app. People don't even realize I've produced over 70 fukking albums....and think I'm playing "video game music".

If I really wanted to I would just murk myself, but I'm too good, sexy, and hung for that and I want to outlive Trump's evil ass so I can piss on his grave and tell my grandchildren about it.

I'm also unemployed too....quit my moving job on February 2nd...that company I had with a so called friend that actually turned out to be a manipulative piece of shyt and a slave driver.

Either way, I've fukking had it with America and I swear the longer I stay here the worse my mood gets. Makes me realize I've been poor my entire adult life. Never made more than $22,000 (probably) in my whole life and I have two degrees and graduated with a 3.9 GPA. America is just a fukking racist lie.


I'm just happy I have the coli to vent. Just trying to find something at the moment where I can make moneyt without possibly having to expose myself to CV.

Another reason this got me depressed is now I'm seeing in so many ways how America is designed for Black people to fail.

Don't even got access to the best healthcare, have to rely on employer provided insurance, denied testing even with symptoms, being sent to die at home from coronavirus, being taken off ventilators prematurely, being forced to work in positions that are low paying where they are exposed to the virus, and these racist white people wanting to open everything back up knowing we're disproportionately affected by it...

Then you got these racist white folks who don't care about the people but money and are willing to let tens of thousands of people die as long as their bottom line isn't affected.

Nevermind the fact Trump banned my people from coming in and out of America (Nigerians)...my family in lagos can't even come visit us for the holidays anymore.

I;m at the point I hate Trump and America so much that if I saw some crakkka in a MAGA hat I'd beat them senseless.

Omg Denver is friggin gorgeous. My hotel had a magnificent view of the Rocky Mountains. If Univ. of Colorado has any SPED positions I’d be there in a heartbeat. And when I went everybody was so nice too!

I’m so sorry shyt has been getting you down lately. I don’t even like to watch the news b/c it can be so depressing. Wooooww ur music legacy is really impressive! Have you linked up with any Coli music fans in the Booth?

I almost feel like the Coli could run its own damn music production company with all the knowledge they have of the industry.

Smoke weed. Watch the strains you smoke as well as the time you smoke.

Find a place that elicits peace and calm in you.

Listen to chill music.

Learn a new skill or get deeper into whatever interests or talents you have, work on your craft.

Keep yourself busy doing something.


Don't take unnecessary naps during the day and sleep at night. Sleep is important. Don't avoid it.

Light therapy, expose yourself to light during the day. Vitamin D.

Think positive

Don't dwell too much on the problems, ills, harsh truths on life and etc.

Don't carry your work and stresses with you. Learn to detox. Drop that shyt and chill.

I’m going to add LOG OFF.

The internet can be a toxic waste dump of melodrama, bullshyt, lies and foolishness hitting walls and bouncing back ad naseum.

Read a book, take a walk, analyze some music, plant a garden, ride a bike.

It’s especially important these days with the protests and the violence that blks take time for mental health.

I tried weed it doesn’t work for me but the Vit D is a miracle. Trazadone and Clonidine. Try Ambien. Depression is a real monster

For the longest time I've tried to deny this 'condition' but I've come to the realisation that I suffer from depression, at least seasonal depression (in the winter).

Something about the cold weather and lack of sunshine that just fukks with me and has me feeling gloomy as fukk. I live in the Southern hemisphere so it's winter here now and those same old 'winter blues' are hitting me again.

Always feeling tired
Lack of motivation
Anxiety through the roof
Grey hairs from stress
Poor diet choices
Increased alcohol consumption
Lack of excercise
Weight gain due to poor diet, alcohol and lack of excercise.

I've decided to finally accept and fight this shyt. Bought new running equipment and a scale. Just completed my first run in a month and feeling a lot better than I have in a while. Will be going hardcore on the fitness and excercise now to give myself something to work towards and feel positive about until the Spring rolls around.

 

[BuckFilly]

exercise and healthy eating!!!!
and good p*ssy!!

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

9. Take a break from the internet.... sites and platforms like IG, WSHH, The Coli.com etc will only exacerbate any emotional issues you have

 

[Monsanto]

Seek out a mental health professional.

Lord knows the black community doesn't keep mental health institutions and therapists in high regards, but it's damn effective.

Talk to someone with neutrality because your partner or friends may be going through their own stuff that they want to impose on you. And if all you want to do is talk it out you may not want to hear their problems added to yours.

On that note, protect your energy. Meditate to realign, find consistency in routine and cut out the negativity from external sources. Friends, the way you talk and the tendency to clown.

Everybody got problems don't add more tension to their pain.
