How do you guys live with depression? I'm honestly hanging on a tight leash. I feel like I'm suffocating. I just wanna kill myself.

Always realize that it can be way much more worse.
But mostly exercise, videogames, music, drinking, and lots and lots of masturbation

It takes time. Usually there's a core issue you need to resolve.
For me, it was that I thought I was transgender for 5 years. I realized I wasnt and the next day i was completely fine. I started working out, being healthy, and now life is amazing.

hahahahhahaha
i keep telling this mtf fags they just need testostrone therapy and a stronger male influence
jk, i don't tell them that because they get offended and i think they're cute.

Yeah i realized that i never wanted surgery, I just wanted to feel attractive, and usually attractive to women.
So i stopped telling myself i was a girl, and tried being myself; a cross-dressing hot guy

It's easy and addictive to bundle your problems into some impossible scenario that will never happen instead of trying to fix them little by little and accepting the cards dealt to you.

I just kinda glide in between my moments of happiness. The days just blend together but once or twice a month I have an opportunity to go on a backpacking or dirtbiking trip for the weekend. It's in those moments I can set aside my depression and be happy.
>>36844416
well, i do because i havent killed myself yet, its hard to not live with something when you arent dead
>>36844416
It helps to have a goal. Like I'm saving up enough to kill myself. Watching my savings grow slowly is incredibly satisfying.

I want to feel love before i kill myself
Basically waiting to have my heart broken
I cured my depression last year.
All it took was for me to have a really solid goal to work towards and focus on. Haven't even accomplished my goal yet but I'm happier than I've ever been because I'm on my way to living my dream. people like me, maybe all people need something to strive toward, to give them a reason to tolerate the bullshit of life. so gather your courage and just do it. it's tough of course, but you gotta keep fighting until you make your dreams come true.
I've lived with it for over a decade I honestly would not recognize how it feels to not be depressed anymore. I just distract myself with work and school then I sleep. Maybe I'll find something to help one day or maybe I'll kill myself either way life is life.
I have realized that going on omegle and falling for girls is probaly one of the worst things you can do.
you just gotta embrace the suck...
If your physicaly healthy, you have a huge leg up... I didnt really how much i took for granted until a work injury fucked me for life.
Swimming is awesome, that cold water and rigorous exercise combo is a great way to kill 30 minutes every day.
lexapro and backpage saved my life.
>talking about it
>not being about it

Once you realize how easily you can die from everything you live with depression just fine.

You would. I had a moment of clarity a couple of years ago (triggered by getting a huge burden off my chest), it was frikkin amazing. For a couple of hours I felt like a god, it was like I was on drugs or something.

tinychat/robot9001how do u figure? hehe
>>36847509

>>36847509
Happened to me once, I think
>for a moment I'm not depressed
>everything is easy to do
>can talk and think of things to say easily
>actually enjoy talking to people for once
>tfw pick up my 3ds
>the game looks amazing
>instantly sucks me in
>gaining points in the game is like a mini orgasm and the game is so fun
wtf is this what normies feel like?
I eat. It ends up making me more depressed because I am becoming a fat loser but it's the only thing on this planet that still gives me (temporary) satisfaction. Nothing else does this anymore, not even masturbation. I've tried drinking instead but alcohol makes my depression worse
>>36844416
everyday I think about suicide but I don't want to die actually it' like parasitic violent thoughts about hurting myself, it just makes me sad and even more depressed day by day. also I feel like a lot of people I've talked to recently talk to me about suicide like they would like me to kms.
I feel like everyone is using sarcasm on me and I'm ashamed to even get out.
Self awareness goes a long way. Took me a long time and about a year of being on anti-depressants to recognize when I was starting a feedback loop of negative thoughts and nip them in the bud. Also, it helps to work on self-improvement and personal projects. For me, it's exercise, music, and programming.
