Anyone had depression so bad that you don't have the will to do anything and you just feel physically and emotionally weak and everything is too much effort? I feel that way all the time.

Yeah I felt that way for almost a year and a half after college. I had no job and no purpose and was convinced my degree was a waste. Relationships were fraying and I was just pissed off anytime I had to leave my bedroom because I didn't want to deal with people.

It's fucking hard because nobody around really understands, they just say cheer up it will get better. But you don't want their advice or their pity because that just makes it worse. Really the only thing I can say about getting through severe depression is to find something, anything, that makes you happy and stick to it day after day.

Maybe that's something creative like writing or drawing, but it could also be a commitment to running every day, or lifting weights, or making sure you take the best care of your dog or sick relative that anyone could ever ask for.

I won't say cheer up it'll get better, but I hope you're able to work your way out of it and someday it will :)

Sure I have. I know exactly what it's like to feel lost and overwhelmed with yourself. It eats you up if you lose control. If you ever need someone to listen to you, hit me up with a PM dude!

Thanks dudes.

then i discovered hurting other people. its the best feeling in the world.

Not sure what to say.

I haven't felt those levels of depression since middle & highschool when I was being bullied. Reminding myself that it WILL get better if I put my own effort into it helped. Also a bit of diet and exercise boosted my self esteem greatly.

If you don't live in a shithole I recommend you in the very least go out for a walk once a day. That alone is a great way to perk up.

I know that feeling man.

I had it once. Then i decided to stop pitying myself. I literally looked in the mirror and said "Quit being a pussy. Someone has it way worse than you." Then i stopped being depressed.

Sorry to hear man.

I am diagnosed with Seasonal Affective Disorder and Reactive Depression. I take Celexa (20 mg) every day, for the past sixty days. Winter is the hardest time for me. I have no energy, no motivation, no drive. I don't want to do anything except for sleepbor lay in bed. It is awful.

What you need is to go for a walk...
A nice long walk to wherever you want even if you are not sure where you are going...
And by the time you get back you will feel better trust me...

Every step is exhausting. You're knee deep in the swamp that sticks to your legs. The air is thin but you keep going. The sun blinds you as it shines through the blinds. One more step and you will have made it... to the door of your bed room... half way there on your way to the bathroom. And you sure will feel better as soon as you found some relief there.

That sucks ass.

That is good.

I made a thread about this earlier, I don't want to complain too much but I do want to share how it's been going with me.

My depression is really on and off. Some periods of my life it'll just take me over and I'll feel like I can't do anything. I can't get thoughts out of my head, and I just overthink. Waking up is the worst thing in the world. Everything feels like a chore because it all seems pointless. I can't try to be happy because I know it's just masking how I truly feel. The only real thoughts that put my mind in a state of peace are thoughts about suicide; it's almost as if I fantasize about it. I think about the future and I don't see a good path, the vision of it looks bleak, which makes me not want get up out of bed in the morning.

All of this is exactly how I've been feeling lately. And it was all triggered by an emotionally shattering series of events that happened a couple of months ago.

I haven't felt this way in a long time, but like I said, it comes and goes. Before all this shit happened, this year was great. Probably the best year in my life until this happened. I've been through less severe moments than this, but still severe enough to impair me, and I was able to get back on my feet and turn it around. Only this time, I feel like it'll take a big turnaround, because as I'm growing older and experiencing/achieving more, I've become more cynical and my standards of living are higher.
