Let's talk

No, I'm not chris hansen. I'm just someone who feels like having a reasonably serious conversation with someone.

Here's the deal, 4channers: Lately I've been feeling really, really fucking depressed. Please excuse the expletives, but I feel it helps convey the anger associated with this emotion. I'm not going to beat around the bush and say life is rosy; I recently lost a relationship with my girlfriend of several years, I have mounting money problems and university life is starting to overwhelm me. This doesn't mean that I've degraded into a blind emo, nor have I completely forgotten the good things of life; such as the smell of rain, the warm sun on your face, the songs of birds or the smiles of children. I just don't care about them like I used to. In fact, I almost detest them. I shy away from them, and nothing shakes the thoughts of everything I have lost, and everything I will continue to lose, unless I change the way I am.
I had a good upbringing, 4chan, so why does this shit happen? Why can't I clear the dust and cobwebs out of my mind and start afresh? What am I meant to do? How can I save any of what I have left, before, it too, leaves?

Surely I am not the only one who has these problems, just as surely someone must have overcome them. What's your story? What did you do?

Depression and anxiety are very common.  It is not a problem with your personality, its simply chemical imbalances in your brain.  That's exactly what SSRI's (Selective-seratonin re-uptake inhibitors) like paxil, lexapro, etc. are for.

Talk to a psychiatrist (they are the ones who are doctors, not psychologists) and they can fix it.

kill youself and save us sum bandwidth

it's not just you who feels like this. Millions of us do.

Go see the doc, talk through your woes.

it gets better.

You are not me.

Please excuse the expletives, but I feel it helps convey the anger associated with this emotion.
If you can't articulate yourself in a way to express severity without using profanities then you are truly pathetic.
"woe is me", boohoo, etc.
Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Many people have worse lives but deal with them much better. Get over yourself.

I used to be like you, self-pitying and naive. Then guess what I did? I got over it! My life has changed in no way whatsoever aside from my change in attitude. I realized my life isn't so bad even though some pretty depressing things (family deaths, etc) happened lately, but there's no reason to be sad or feel sorry for myself.

simply chemical imbalances in your brain
And fat people simply have slow metabolic rates amirite? Yeah, right. That's just the excuse that people who have no legitimate reason to pity themselves use. They feel sad and sorry for themselves because they're introverted losers who concentrate more on themselves than anything else.

I might come across as insensitive but in reality you're just delusional, overly-sensitive idiots.

Golden showers, warmth, bird fetishes and pedophilia. No wonder you're fucked up.

GOODNESS GRACIOUS!

I don't know, I'm feeling sort of similarly. I would pursue things I know can bring me satisfaction, but I can't seem to justify using my mental resources for anything lately as I have major academic obligations at the moment that need to be taken care of.

Fuck. And I wanted to start talking to people more too.

:(

Well... I used to feel that way. Sooner or later you'll stop romanticizing things "such as the smell of rain, the warm sun on your face, the songs of birds or the smiles of children."  You'll learn to appreciate writing a brilliant database, or making a huge sale, or winning a case, or finding a cure, or getting through to someone.  The reason you can't "clear the dust and the cobwebs" and start fresh is because you're a grown up now, and we don't get to start fresh.  You're who you are and you're stuck with the life you have.  Get used to it first, and then you'll start liking it, and then it will grow and change.  It won't ever be new again, but it's still beautiful, and you should appreciate it.

While you're at it, you might start appreciating the education you're getting.  College is stressful, but not as stressful as, say, having a kid, or cancer or something.  Money problems suck, but if you're even halfway responsible, they'll get worked out eventually.  Losing a girlfriend blows, but after a time, you'll start to stand on your own two feet, and find comfort and joy in that.  EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY.

you guys are fuckin dicks man
