Alright, so here's my deal. I'm 23, i work a part-time

>>17508407
Basically, i want a better job to afford a better lifestyle. I dont have a car, so that makes getting to better paying jobs hard. I'm worried that working full time will make me more depressed again. I mainly want advice on whether or not i should stick to my current comfy job, or look for something that will pay better, but drain on me more. I'll be around to answer questions and talk. thanks for reading this.

Eat more vitamin b12. (You can get it from oatmeal). Make sure to eat it regularly throughout the day for maximum absorption.

i will try that i guess. Is it supposed to help with depression? that might help.

Fucking do it. I started last week, and its been amazing. Ive been exercising, came up with tons of new ideas to make my work more efficient, talking more with people, and for the first time in my life my future looks great. I can't recomend it enough.

HOWEVER, YOU MUST ALSO STOP EATING SUGAR. Sugar sort of... competes with b12 in the bloodstream or something. Makes it not work, and its why you get that mood crash a bit after eating sugary stuff. So no sugar, plenty of oatmeal.(Then come back here and tell more people to do it so it goes viral :3)

Alright OP, you need to have a goal that is more important than yourself. This is the only thing that I have found which helped combat depression and helped me realize my full potential.

Every time i felt depressed or lonely I would always think "your goal does not care if you are tired, depressed, lonely, etc. Your goal only cares if you are going to do enough to achieve it."

I rthen structured my entire life around achieving that goal. My health, wealth, etc, al play significant parts towards it. I also made my goal concrete, x number of dollars a week is my goal, and defined how much I was willing to sacrifice (losing friends, lack of sleep, 100+ hours a week, etc.)

If you wish to feel fulfillment you need a goal. it will aide in combating depression.

Working out (actual working out, not lift 3 times and bullshit for 45 minutes), and improving posture at all times will aide in combating depression.

Remove junk food from your diet, (no soda, no candy, limited fatty foods like salad dressings, mayo, cook all your own meals, no sugar).

"At levels only slightly lower than normal, a range of symptoms such as fatigue, depression, and poor memory may be experienced."

So yes.

I've been meaning to cut sugar out of my diet for awhile now. Luckily i dont get much weight gain from it, but i do have a bad cavity that i can't afford to get fixed, and my acne is worse than it should be for a 23 year old. I will try this. As for working out, i can't afford a gym membership, so will running/crunches/sit ups cut it? i'm sure anything is good because i rarely do those now.

>>17508516
i think that is definitely the mindset i need. I'll start by cutting out the junk food and working out more and then if i'm feeling confident i can go for a full time job in a factory or something. Thanks

The pasta, again!?

i typed this myself, the fuck are you talking about?

Read the sticky on fit. (Also, don't overexercise. You will probably feel really good from the oatmeal, and feel like you can run forever. Don't. Do brisk walking/cycling instead so that you don't hurt your body.)

You can probably get fine without a gym membership for now, but you should definitely look into either getting one or at least developing your home gym.(going to the gym is better because you'll see other people there that you can talk too)

Thanks for the powerful words, anon.

>>17508548
Just plain Oatmeal? or like the maple + brown sugar kind?

>>17508591

Plain.

Thank you. In regards to your goals what I would do is consider myself not as human, but simply as an organic machine. The suppression of the ego doess wonders for emotional control and resilience.

I've tried eating vitamin b12 for several months in the form of tablets, but I didn't feel any different than before.
