depression

Post by AWvsCBsteeeerike3 »

Is anybody else here just depressed as hell? I mean, honestly, what the [expletive]? HAs there been any good [expletive] news anywhere the last year or two? I've never felt this [expletive] before in my life. I guess the winter, work and personal issues have just gotten the best of me. Then thinking that i might be depressed makes me feel even weaker. It's a pretty [expletive] cycle. I feel extremely bad for people that chronically suffer from this.

You'd be surprised how much of a difference there is living in a sunny climate.

This time of year is always tough...I can't wait for spring to get here.

I agree wholeheartedly with this.

It's human nature. It happens to everyone, to varying degrees, at some point. There's no need to feel weak because of it.

It might help you to find a routine and stick with it.

It's not just you, dude. Life can be pretty tough sometimes. Do something that you enjoy today, even if it's just having a sweetass burrito at lunch.

By the way, I was just kidding, that really isn't my routine. I just thought it was kind of funny.

This is great advice. I went sledding at 10 or 10:30pm last night at Art Hill on a whim (nice to have spontaneous friends at Wash U). Even though I was still in my khakis from work, and we didn't have a sled, (we used cardboard-which failed), we went for a (cold) walk after giving up on the cardboard.

Sometimes simple pleasures can perk ones spirits quite a bit.

Is this time of year especially tough because of the ex?
