LifeFuel the best cope is to keep yourself occupied and productive.

my brother came to visit us today, so long story short. all he did was watch TV for 8 hours straight. i could tell he was getting depressed and angry because the lack of motion and bad negative thoughts.

"the idle mind is the devil's playground".

the more we focus on the blackpill, the more we hurt ourselves.
you have to be creative guys, find fresh ideas, new things to do. keep the noggin joggin.
today i was at bed after watching blackpilled podcast and i felt physically ill, i don't want this to ever happen again.
write down a list of NEW things you want to do every day. it might seem like a meme but it comes in handy when depression is setting in.

I agree if you're doings things you like.

 

[NoMoreSlaving]

Yes, thats why I try to stay out of my house if I can find some reason to. Its very bad when Im here on my own

 

[FrothySolutions]

Don't drift, always be doing stuff. That's where the anxiety and depression of holiday break comes from. When it's nearing its end. It's because you wasted the break doing nothing but lying down.

 

[EyesAreSoCold]

Ye I feel generally happier if Im busy and do things during the day.

 

[StaroRavager]

My day consists of thinking, posting and festering

 

[Spite]

I have no motivation to do anything besides rot all day.

 

[AncapFAG]

I post for my autism

 

[Deleted member 14490]

I usually spend about 18-19 hours day on pc.

 

[Honeypot]

I agree if you're doings things you like.

What do you like? I fucking like to do nothing

I think being productive is a good thing, but not everyone is capable of being productive. If you have some linguistic, artistic, scientific, mathematical, etc., ability, then being productive is a good and fruitful thing. If you don't have an ability, then you can't be productive.

Doing things to keep your mind occupied is a good thing, because it helps count down the hours till you fall asleep. Personally, however, I can't force myself to do things, because that feels worse than doing nothing.

Are you depressed?

 

[Mainländer]

What do you like? I fucking like to do nothing

I know that feel. I LDARed for a long time not wanting to do anything but getting a guitar again after months without it was good for me. I like music. Both playing and writing music.

I also like listening to shit about politics/religion while I play some games, not sure if this is really productive though.

I'm also enjoying my house and home country way more after my experience overseas.

My despondent state improved a lot in the last month, no doubt about it.

 

[Futurecel2.0]

I have short attention span from high speed internet and porn abuse. It's over tbh.

 

[Miscreated]

I agree. If I don't do anything, I feel like crap

 

[Hector Barbossa]

I agree. The best cope is to keep yourself busy so that you do not have time to think about your true situation. However, I find myself struggling to find the motivation to even distract myself. I have lots of ideas, but I can't force myself to see them through.

 

[Unmerited]

I have no motivation to do anything besides rot all day.

I have the same problem, motivation isn't something that comes naturally to me.

Starting to do something is the hardest part really; even if you consider that most things carry absolutely no risk whatsoever, especially when starting them.

As much as I try and cultivate a work ethic, I'd still wake up late, as in the afternoon, feel down and dislike myself for having woken up so late, and this would make me feel more down, so much so there seemed no point in leaving my bed at all.

Hours and hours could pass, and I would feel worse as each hour passed. Night would come and I still hadn't left the bed, and I'd feel even worse.

write down a list of NEW things you want to do every day. it might seem like a meme but it comes in handy when depression is setting in.

I think the meme is in strangers offering self help so readily are usually just trying to scam you out of your time/money. Maybe you're earnest, maybe you're not; the words remain but I can't help find a different significance in them.

It's like those ads on late night television, where some arrogant chad claims that you can become filthy rich just like him if you buy his complete book series on how to be successful. But, it just exposes how little differences between myself and a self-made millionaire; outside of various learned patterns and outlooks on life -most predominantly looks.

Everyone is so eager to forget how to be decent human beings; call it high ideals or "unrealistic standards"; but there is still this repungent emotion that makes me want to say "I can't help it" : but that's a lie. It's a choice, isn't it?

I've been wageslaving almost everyday now. It sucks but I feel less depressed than when I was rotting on the internet for 10+ hours a day.

 

[Mik_TFL]

I can relate to this a lot. Every weekend that I don't have things to do I just end up doing nothing all day and it gets depressing very fast. Sometimes I just don't have the mental strength to leave my bed, I just stay there for hours and hours seeping in and out from my dreamworld. Anyone here having similar issues?

 

[Grotesque]

I'm always doing things that occupy my mind. I'm lucky that my depression has never killed my desire to play games and cope like that.

[BlackPilledKira]

I've been going through some of the worst depression of my life lately, i try so hard to avoid these forums because they make me suicidal but i keep getting drawn back here when i realise that i'm just coping and will die miserable and alone.

 

[Kobecel]

So true,Basketball and gym are my favorite copes

 

[PaulSmenis]

I meditate.

Too much hassle to try and milk out an endorphin release through vacuous normie pursuits. Might as well cut to the chase and brute force hack neuropsychology through biofeedback manipulation.

 

[Insomniac]

I have no motivation to do anything besides rot all day.

Tbh..

 

[SubhumanMonster]

The best cope is to sleepmaxx.

 

[guerillahubris]

this is true i guess but what else can i do? i cant even find a min wage job lmao

being a good person is not a requirement in anything, sadly. this is just the way things are.
the biggest irony of this world is most of the inequality stems from lack of sharing. not capitalism or socialism.

 

[rabitter]

(((productive)))

 

[Cuyen]

Ye I feel generally happier if Im busy and do things during the day.

[turbocuckcel_7000]

being 30 gives you fucking x-ray vision to see through every cope, it's over
