going into depressive cycle again

>>17967753
Who do you have you can turn to when this happens?

Meditation

>>17967759
Nobody. If I could I would but this stays to myself.

>>17967794
Care to share what's going on?

>>17967753
>I'm lost on how to stop this from progressing

get professional counseling

get meds

take them

It's not that simple faggot.

Keeping yourself busy is literally the only way for a chronically depressed person to forget about it. That and medication, rest is made up bullshit. To me even something as menial as fixing electronic shit or bikes is enough, but as soon as I'm done I'm back in the slump, because days are just too long honestly.

> ooh I'm an expert because I went to NAMI.org
Meds and counseling are necessary and helpful but there's more than that: support system, coping skills, etc. you obviously don't understand.

Isn't that stuff all just Kung Fu movie huba? Or is there more to it?

>>17967797
I don't even know myself. It's like the spark of life went out. It's a fight to not just stare off in the distance like a fucking retard and watch the clock spin while going all over the place in my mind.

If I do that I throw away my future. professional help only if I get too dangerous.

I can relate and I understand. During one of my episodes of depression I just stared at the wall all day of my room. You're not in "crisis" now you say but now is the best time to go and talk with a professional before you get to crisis mode. You're worth it anon.

You explained this cycle, but you made no mention of the root cause(s). To fix a problem, you need to know what the problem is first, whats causing it second and how do I fix it third.

What initiates this cycle? What makes it sustain, what causes it do escalate.

If you are trying to get somewhere, and you find out you're going the wrong way, you don't say "hey guys im going the wrong way, no you turn the fuck around and get back on track. You know that the wheels are about to fall off, you need to find out what is causing the problem and fix it. If you cant do it yourself post it here and may the gods unite you with some help.

>worth it
Nope not if people actually knew who I am when I'm not trying to be a someone. I'm pretty much an unstable waste of resources with no personality. I like living but I'm not worth anything. Professional help only when things get dangerous again I don't want things to go that far again.

Text book truth. Your right on what's needs to be done. I've fixed it before or at least temporarily but if what I did before was only temporary solution I'm afraid of what the actual one is
