That's easy to say, but hard to implement. I only see the "bad." I'm a smart person, so I can normally see both sides. It's just that the "depressing" side always logically wins out. Life sucks, and no amount of wishful thinking can tell me otherwise. If you logically look at life, it sucks (and yeah I know my brain may be making the "bad" side seem more logical. But it is what it is)

I used to smoke all the time, but then it started making me paranoid, no matter the strain. I can't smoke anymore without making everything worse :mjcry:

I've learned to live with my situation though. Some people just aren't meant to be happy. I'm one of those people. It pissed me off for a year or two, but I'm content with it now. I'm able to function fine. I'm just not happy. Normally I'm very depressed, so just feeling normal is a blessing. I don't need happy, I just need normal. After a plethora of meds, I'm feeling "normal" now. I'll take that. I don't even care about being happy, I'm just trying to not be depressed and suicidal.

That's just my life. My pdoc wanted me to get electroshock therapy, but I'm like :whoa: no not doing that (I want to keep my mind and intelligence). I'm fine with just feeling normal, or mildly depressed. I'll keep taking the (very strong) APs, ADs, and sedatives. Don't be shocking my brain :ufdup:
Go to church. You sound like your spirit is broken. Stay up breh. :salute:

It saddens me to read about a breh throwing himself in the bushes like this...

Meds for what you're going through are never the answer, they're the equivalent of putting a band-aid on a bullet wound...

Those meds don't address the root of the problem, all they're doing is masking it providing you with temporary relief...

Most people I hear talk like this always need a lifestyle/environment change...Stuck in a circle surrounded by negativity, family, neighborhood, job etc...I had a homie that was downright suicidal, I tried everything to get son out of that funk nothing seemed to ever work...Everything seemed to depress him...What ended up helping him was getting the fukk out of NY...Dude had a solid career here in the financial sector and gave it all up to move to Guyana for a piece of mind...He's an agricultural worker down there with a wife and kids happy as can be...

I'm not saying go do something drastic like that but I highly advise going on vacation somewhere remote without your phone and see how that makes you feel...Breathe in that fresh air and just live at peace for a week without thinking about all the dumb material shyt we argue about on here everyday...

I feel like a lot of the time 'being happy' is a choice you make. you choose how to interpret your situation :yeshrug:
Personal happiness is always a choice. There are people living in poverty that are still happy and people who have large incomes that are miserable. You choose how to respond to your circumstances. Your response isn't chosen for you.

Breh, your way of seeing things is all yours. There is no right or wrong way to perceive things. You choose to look at things negatively. Change up your diet and consume more fresh fruit/veggies.

Listen to some music, get some aromatherapy oils, go travel somewhere. Watch/read things that are fun and positive. When I'm angry or sad about something, I quickly reframe it like "One day I'll be laughing about this because something better will have come up." It always happens.

Just play Persona 4 Golden, if that thing doesn't make you smile then go play Knack.

MY twin nieces are starting college this fall. Can y'all recommend some good but cheap laptops? Just good enough for school, email/web browsing, etc.

My brain ain't right, that's the problem. I got a serious mental illness that fukks with everything. I gotta be on the meds, or I'll go crazy (again...). shyt sucks, but it's the truth. A nice vacation with no phone does sound good though. Maybe I'll do that...:jbhmm:

We got a couple people trying to dump 980tis on Craigslist. I feel bad for them because they aren't even gonna be worth half of what they cost them a year ago.

When I upgrade this card I'm just gonna slide it to the secondary PC.
