Reminder that you are living in a prison of your own creation if you are depressed. Stop putting the blame on others, buck up and get your life back on track. Stop fucking masturbating and go outside, start meditating and working out. Realize the importance of quiet time. You can sit around doing this and popping pills for the rest of your life or buck up.

Dragon Age: Origins. For some reason it sent me in to a deep, nihilistic spiral for several months. I developed an irrational fear of impending death. I was only able to sleep during that period after staying up to exhaustion and I had to have the tv and lights on. It was a really scary part of my young adult life. To this day I can't bring myself to play DA:O again.

Unironically The Sims series. I can't play the game for more than an hour or so before it starts to depress me. Having a Sim effortlessly move through life like a machine as he gets married, has children, and progresses through a career makes me feel the weight of life harder than I should. It always makes me self reflect super hard. What's weird is that the game is super light hearted and fun with alien abductions and weird sim animations.

Katawa shoujo is a visual novel that seems like generic waifu bait, but is actually a sad as hell story about disabled girls.

Dark Souls 1 will build up this beautiful fucking universe just to drill in every chance it gets that whatever grace this perfect world used to have left long before you arrived and you work your way through it's depressing afterthought.
The sadness about Dark Souls is watching something once great and powerful become a shell of itself. Lifeless and lost. Almost every subplot works to reinforce this idea.

Bloodborne is depressing in the way that you're in no control of anything as literal hell in the shape of eldrich alien horror descends to fuck your wife and give her the baby of mind numbing torturefuck

Needless to say I found Bloodborne horrifying more than anything
But oddly enticing, the intricacy of the lore and how just enough is revealed as you progress to keep you pushing to learn.
That's exactly the feeling it's trying to convey as well, the absolute horror in the face of the eldrich Great Ones, but also that primordial drive to understand.

If you equate a fulfilling life to a unicorn, then that means you have a solid vivid image of what a fulfilling life is. You should either aim for that, or stop daydreaming. The life you live now is more fulfilled than half the population.

The Void.

This game is a literal mechanical translation of existential dread. And while it does talk about the prosibility of transcendence, it's not exactly an uplifiting prospect either.

Pathologic
Silent Hill 2

Actually, that is particularly the type of scenario in which you can actually break the situation from within. Ironically, depression caused by external factors (death in a family, trauma, physical injury, just about everything except having terminal cancer) is ironically somewhat easier to break than depression caused by personality disorder.
Also, these kinds of depressions tend to react much more reliably on medicine, so medication and basic consultation is usually a fairly effective form of treatment.
>>
>>386430526
Yep, their second game. I'd argue it's not QUITE as good as Pathologic, but it's close and my god is it depressing.

I am in that situation right now. I have had epilepsy since birth but in the last year or so it has become worse than it has before. Makes it difficult to go out and do things. I have gotten a bit better, can do things during the day but still uncomfortable in crowded places/would prefer to stay inside most of the time but I have no motivation . I still think it is on myself to make the effort to go out and see friends, push myself towards a goal, etc. Nobody else can do that for you. People can help but ultimately it's down to you.

>>
>>386430838

I've been in a similar situation.

My advice, stop acting guilty and just do your best with whatever is in front of you. If you have an assignment, or you have a job, focus on doing those, without worrying about what'll happen in the future. Think of it like a teenage relationship, you do the loving and fucking, but you're not thinking about what to name your kids, or where your future home will be.

If I was one of your parents, I'd rather see my kid do his best and make even a tiny bit of progress, instead of apologizing and accomplishing nothing at all.

I already have. I take Prozac and Klonopin, I receive psychotherapy, my school knows about my condition and tries to help me get through. Despite all these things, I cannot change my perspective on life. It's all so god damn pointless. It's wave after wave after wave.
>>386431092
Too late.
>>386431402
Prozac has helped me get through some really severe periods of depression, but the fundamental issue is that I'm just tired of everything. Fulfilling my family's expectations, getting better grades than others, being on the receiving end of angry doctors, etc. Every night before going to sleep, I always think how close I am to forgetting all my problems. Compressing your carotids for a few minutes with a rope/belt/towel gets you unconscious, and several minutes later you die peacefully.

Sound like the only thing your parents want is for you to be happy. If you are tired of everything and the pressure is too much then there is no shame in droping out.

Deadly premonition was depressing in a very meta way.
It's known all around to be a horrible game..and admittedly it is in some ways.
Yet it sucked me so far in. That game's atmosphere, music and setting
The comfy ass dialouge, it helped me through many rough days and nights.

Not strictly speaking. First American McGee's Alice is a mixture of third-person shooter and a bit of platforming, the second one is more spectacle-fighter (like a poor man's DMC) with platforming, but neither of them have the platforming as a real focus.
They aren't very good either. The story can be interesting, with the second game having arguably THE darkest story I've seen in videogames ever and some quite amazing art direction and atmosphere, but as games they are kinda garbage - poorly designed, the story is largely all over the place, the level design is wonky as fuck, and the combat is almost universally pretty tragic.

I'd say the second game might be kinda worth playing for the ultra-grim and kinda beautiful narrative alone, but sadly even the story just shits it's pants towards the end, and much of the gameplay is a complete chore.

>Why are we still here? What cruel god allows this level of existence?
The creator of this world is not a true god. He is an impostor, sad being of resentment and failed ambition. And our existence is just a result of his delusions and arrogance.
The TRUE god would never lower himself to something as imperfect as Creation. HE is beyond our comprehension. HE is perfection and absolution, hidden from our sight by the malevolent act of creation of the Impostor.

But there is hope. There is a reflection of the glory of the TRUE GOD at the bottom of our souls. And, with realization of the great Deception that has been played on us, and rejection of the "world" that is our prison, we can hope that we can be truly united with our real father. The first step to ascending is to realize and accept that nothing that happens to us in this mortal realm matters.

True story.

It was some weird obscure flash game with puzzles and mazes, but I can't remember the name. Basically it was about these two teens, girl and a boy. The girls got a pretty tough life at home, but the one thing she's got in her life is her love for this boy and he's all she's got. One day, girls has had enough and decides to run away with the boy.

However when the game begins, you're in the pov of the boy and one day you can't find her anymore. So you go through these levels of puzzles and mazes to find clues on what happened to her. At the end, you find out that she's dead and the game heavily hints that you (the boy) did it because he has a mental illness and there's a sequel where you can play it from her pov as well. I don't think it was that popular but it stayed with me and had a profound effect on me.

Beating persona 5 made me feel really alone. After I beat the game I felt kinda sad cause I was gonna miss everyone.

The world we know has been burned away. Scorched by the fires of an asteroid strike that wiped humanity from the face of the planet. The skies are black and choked with poison. The forests burn eternal. the ocean surface is slick with death. The only known survivors in all the world are living in a station in the crushing depths of the sea. Isolated and alone in their own substations with failing communication. And these final survivors find no respite. Something is coming for them. Battering them. Vivisecting them. Twisting them into abhorrent forms. They scrounge for food. They kill each other. Their only excuse for a spark of hope is to scan their own brains and upload these false selves into a false world; that something resembling humans can live on amongst the stars. And you will not even experience these events. You will enter these stations long after human life inhabits them. You will be more alone than any of these dying survivors. And that's only the beginning.

>>386443874
In just about 90% of the cases, killing yourself. Unless your family explicitly makes it clear that they wish you were dead (and not even in those cases, as many people often mistake care and worry for anger and blame), killing yourself will leave them forever blaming themselves, or forever wreaking their heads about what went wrong. Suicide in family is something that is profoundly difficult to deal with: as long as the family is even remotely healthy.

Seriously - despite how it may seem, by killing yourself you are dragging everyone else into it big time. You might not like it, but there is no way that your suicide won't make everyone involved feel guilty and responsible.

If you want to kill yourself, fine. But don't EVER delude yourself into thinking that you are doing it to "save them any torment or pain". That is not how it works.

I do know what I'm talking about,

Life is Strange.

That small comfy town between a coast and a forest, stupid american highschool life, having a really, really close friend or a lover, being young... etc.

I grew up in an overpopulated, dirty, ugly, third world country city, my highschool life was basically spent preparing for endless exams and just a few /robot/ friends like me whom I lost connection after graduation, never had a girlfriend, I wasted my youth with fucking video games.

The protag and his sister are in purgatory after dying in a car accident. The glass jumping scene is representative of the protag being ejected from the car through the windshield. Notice how the main menu is the same as the location the end of the game when he finds his sister. But there is a pile of meat and flies where the sister was sitting. The protag is stuck repeating the same search over and over again. Limbo is depressing as fuck.

can you have an erection when fapping? if not, you probably have a physical problem that is fixable by your medic, go to him
if yes, you're ok

are you comfortable with your body? this is a really major problem. When I was a little more fat (10kg) I couldn't get it right because I hated my body and felt ashamed of myself
I just lost 10kg and had no problems during sex

kill your negative ideas running through your head, those are self made and a lie. Trust in your girl (or boy) and tell him/her what happens with you and if he/she can help. Then the both of you work slowly into a relaxed and comfortable time.

stress is a big mother fucker, get rid of it, take your time.

>all good with superior 2d porn
>dont work with real people
okay that's a good thing to read, the problem is in your head then, not in your dick

I started feeling like a piece of shit and after a long time failing I no longer felt like a man, I was just sexless because I didn't serve for that

killing your self disgust, negative ideas and stress is the hard part. Everyone does it in a different way. Someone feel like a therapist helps them (didn't work for me, but it may work for you). Sometimes it's exercising and getting fit (it gives you more energy and control over your body with just a session, imagine if it's an habit)
Can you explain further while the thread lasts?
Because you need to work one way or another on yourself

then your reason is clear
I'm going through a 4 year depression and I didn't want to get fit, but started some weeks ago and I feel fucking strong and full of energy. It really helps.
The feeling of being fucking tired is one of the main things depression/anxiety has.
Being sad consumes so fucking much energy because it's like your body is in alarm mode 24/7.
Holy shit my balls retracted because it's an act of self defense, it hides the balls to not get bitten in a dangerous situation, just like dogs do.

I thought people telling "getting fit helps depression" were full of shit and just living in a fairy world. turns out it helps a lot

just do pushups and walk or run while the sun isn't out yet.
Get someone to motivate you telling to do it everyday

I don't know why you're depressed though, and I don't know if we can help but you can try

jerking off everyday kills the boner too
when you're healthy and happy it doesn't kill it

Yes
Doing exercise makes your body feel good but your mind too.
If you don't do exercise your body "shuts off" and enters a state of pasiveness (your mind too).
Doing exercise is fucking magical. I always hated doing exercise and I fucking hated running because I was kinda fat. I love it now, I never believed I'd change my mind about that.

Finding motivation is fucking hard, like I said before everyone is different. Try to "activate" your body and keep searching for a motivation anon
It could be anything
Good luck in the search anon, you'll find it soon

with this I meant
making exercise -> body and mind feels good -> it boosts motivation -> you find a reason to go on

>buck up
Oh shit thanks anon, I've never thought of that one.
>no longer have to spend a gorillion dollars on medication
>no longer stay in my bed for days and can now maintain a steady job because of that
>idle state of mind is no longer how much I should die, so don't need to spend all my time playing vidya to distract myself
Turns out all I had to do was buck up. Thanks for dawning the idea on me.

Everybody in the world is caught in a desperate struggle to survive against an unstoppable monster that waits until they have rebuilt their village only to suddenly reappear and destroy it again when their lives are returning to normal.

I would say the ending relieves some of the depressing atmosphere of the game's world but that ending makes me cry evrytime, it's certainly bittersweet.
