they won't cure it, but it will keep you going for a week or two.

I heard Persona games can make you change your paradigms, either it motivates you to overcome a difficult situation and socialize, or make you realize how pointless your current spawn is and make you end it all.

Don't do this OP. Video games will never, and I mean NEVER cure your depression. It will make it fucking worse. When you're depressed, you don't feel like doing anything, so naturally you flock to video games to get some brain stimulation and numb the depression temporarily. What people never tell you is that relying on video games to help your depression is a cyclical hell. You won't get anything accomplished with the video game playing. So what happens after you stop playing video games? Naturally, the depression comes back and you want to go back to video games. Only this time for longer. It will continue like this and get worse and worse.

Video games are literally the last thing you want to rely on when you get depressed. Trust me, I know. I've lived it.

This.
I have been in therapy for a few years now, started to take meds one and a half year ago. Got a new drug 1-2 weeks ago, escitalopram. I'm not thinking that much about suicide and that one girl anymore but my situation is still shitty. I might have started to accept emotions thanks to therapy but still no motivation or a big change with my problems. Recently I took a test where I was asked how I felt the last few days, results were put into a gaussian function or some shit like that.
I got +60%(1 standard deviation) for aggressiveness (selfhate), depression and some other shit and +70%(2 standard deviations) for psychoticness and compulsion. Apparently the psychotic part comes from my social withdrawal/isolation but I'm not really compulsive, therapists suspects I might be a perfectionist even though I'm an underachiever

Fucking anime motivated me more than therapy and the drugs

Videogames are not the answer.
Either alcohol or other harder drugs are better at taking your mind off of your existence.
If you still insist on videogames, I've found that strategy games 1v1 work best. They require total focus and will keep all your sense busy until the match is over

You don't need more attempts, just one that isn't half-assed.

Tie some bricks around you and fall from a bridge into a river.
If you want to cut yourself, don't do your wrists since the artery there are fucking thin.
It's faster (and probably more successful) to cut the artery under your armpit.
Or try to stab the artery in your leg, that's much faster.

Shit this stuff is in every biology class/book. Of course nobody tells you "if you cut this tube the person dies faster" but it shows how thick the arteries are in the body in basic anatomy sketches

If you actually have depression. No video game will come close to making you feel good.


When I was depressed ,I exercised. I hated it at first, but it really felt good transforming my body for the better. Thats just me obviously everyone is different. You need to change something in your life, depression doesnt magically go away unfortunately.

People like this confuse me, whenever I've been depressed I just sleep as much as possible and have zero motivation+don't get enjoyment out of anything.

Dark Souls II for me. After enjoying Demon's Soul and the first Dark Souls, I bought Dark Souls II when released and it sat unopened on my shelf for six months.

Life stuff happened and I was in a pretty bad place. Finally decided to start it up and play during any downtime. Game was legit a life saver.

I'm social and like to exercise, but that silly game helped me so much to focus on something fun and interesting when I was alone. It gets a lot of flack in the souls community, but will always have a special place in my heart.

Brain fog is the really hard thing to get rid of.
