I know this sounds like meme advice but this seriously has helped me go from “life fucking sucks 24/7” to “life is alright sometimes but then sucks sometimes”. And even if that is a little better, fuck it I’ll take it. I’ll take being at 20% over 0%

-stop watching porn
- stop eating foods with sugar/flour
- do moderate exercise when you feel it(you don’t have to gym, but even walking around while listening to an audiobook is nice)

Again, this same advice is stated everywhere and I used to think it was a bunch of bulllshit and nobody understood my particular situation, but it unironically resets your brain and dopamine reward system so that just existing isn’t boring and completely dreadful. I still have times where I hate everything, but then I have times where I’m like meh life is alright

you HAVE to exercise. the human body wasn't designed to stagnate the way we do. even ten pushups or a walk is at least SOMETHING for today.

that plus meditation/mindfulness. sit with your depression instead of running from it. just allow it to be and study it/get to know it. you can learn to divorce yourself from the chatterbox that is your mind/ego. we all have one, but we don't need to listen to it. if you're talking your internal voice seriously, you're literally listening to damaged, inconsistent neurosis. stop it. the real you is the one observing, not the one making the noise.

and eat real food. little by little you'll come out the other side.

[Anonymous No.12846722]

- go to bed before midnight
- don't fap everyday
- eat healthy (most important)
- only drink water
- go for a walk outside
- meditate for 5-10 minutes

- check out fasting (heal your gut, it's connected to your brain)
- after fasting, only eat clean. check out fermented foods
- stop cigs, alc, weed
- improve yourself: set goals, play the long term game.

exercise strenuously, like take up something like muay thai, boxing, or BJJ. It's an active way to cure depression. Eat Healthily, im serious, stop eating fast food, stop buying chips and soda, you don't need to go on an extreme diet, just be aware of what you put into your body. This will also help fuel your body for the first exercise portion. Finally you need to take a moderate dose of psilocybin once every 1-2 years. Doesn't have to be a huge dosage, but needs to be enough to hit that reset button on your brain. There is research being done that shows psilocybin helps cut out depression but without a solid foundation I fear you may fall back into prior modalities of thought. Don't do it, rise above, depression sucks majorly but you can win anon.

[Anonymous No.12846889]

I'm convinced that depression comes out of fear.
You fear that you will waste away, never doing anything you want to do, never finding love or fulfilling your dreams. If in a rut and that's already been the case for awhile, it manifests itself as an ultimate inevitability in your head.

I'm convinced of this because of a relatable scenario where I've had migraines for 15 years. When I was young and got an aura (the visual blurring that "warns" of the coming migraine), it would immediately throw me into a state of anger, despair, and anxiety. The onset would have it instantly hijack my state of mind and mood. I feared what came. It absolutely intensified the migraines. I would have chills, fever, nausea, and vertigo while little gremlins were axing away at my brain.

Eventually, my response was to keep a journal and record when I got these things. The day, the time, what I ate that day, how much sleep I got, my activities for the day, etc etc. It led me to do what I could do within my control (adjusting my diet, getting better sleep). Over time, I realized that the state of mind greatly amplified them. If I get one now, I simply accept it. With that acceptance, the pain is considerably mild. I've had plenty of migraines over the years, but I haven't had a deathly one in a decade. It remains out of my control but I decided to not let it get me down and instead, be at peace and make the best of it. I either a.) work through it if I must or b.) turn the lights off and lay down.

I want to replicate this recordkeeping and consciousness with depression. Give up your mind, give up your mood, and the ailments will run wild with them and make it all more painful and dragged out..

- Light exercise 3 times a week; don't become gymbro
- If obese, lose weight by eating healthier, more bland foods
- Drink socially only; don't get drunk
- If in a toxic relationship, leave it
- Do a job you feel betters the world, regardless of pay
- With extra money buy your time, not material possessions
- MDMA 150mg every three months taken first thing in the morning then spend the day in bed reflecting on your life
- Ground mushrooms 2g in lemon juice every three months, exactly as above

Bonus: the things you thought would make you happy like
- A loving partner
- Lots of friends
- Financial success
Will generally follow from first making yourself a happy, positive person who takes action

This should be number one. Also, if you have no social life, I recommend joining a program of some sort where you have to socialize. I did Conservation Corps, it's a paid volunteer job where you get put into groups(ranging from 4 to 25 other people) and go do outside jobs. Then at the end of the day you go back to a shared camp. You are forced to socialize and you will either sink of swim, but either way it's a reality check. Try that or tree planting, or construction

>How do you permanently cure depression?

Lets assume things have a happines score and a shittines score
The score of things is HappinesScore - ShittinesScore.
Then the score of all the actions and happenings are combined to create the FinalScore.

Assuming that depression don't get the final score and set it to a specific low value, and instead just have a huge ShitnessScore, the solution would be to use internet to find a hobby with an huge HappinesScore value to counter ShitnessScore of depression, must be one that you don't know yet (since if you knew it you would be already doing it and would be already countering the ShitnessScore of depression)

[Anonymous No.12849643]

PS: The problem with that tactic is that the action of searching for it may have a for you ShitnessScore higher than its own HappinesScore, so you may end not searching for it, because the act of searching for those hobbies is a boring thing.

Vitamin D is only part of the puzzle. Sunshine has many other known and yet-to-be-known benefits. Morning sunshine kick start our circadian cycle and activated hormonal systems. Sunshine also plays a role in elevating BDNF (look at selfhacked on that) which is key to reduce depression. BDNF has strong genetic component. So if you have a “reduced” version / SNP, look at increasing it - butyrate / FOS / curcumin / MgLT / krill-oil / lithium orotate (also needed for B12 transport).

On a larger scale, looking at your life in accordance to your authentic psychological profile is important. Not everyone is born with a “social butterfly” gene which is so popular now especially ESTJ like Dale Carnegie made it a “mandatory” skills to survive the corporate jungle. If you are not designed (psychologically and genetically) to withstand high level of stress and social dynamics, then look elsewhere for living. And this is where things get difficult as our whole society is conditioned to “corporate life is the only alternative”. It’s going to be difficult to find a living outside of corporate jungle, but if you plan ahead, it can be done. Humans are not designed to sit 9-5 in a blue light and tolerate constant artificial fight-or-flight stress. We cope as it’s being the easy way. But absolutely look elsewhere (psychologist / nutritionist / social worker / physics/math teacher / spiritual healer as stress management etc).

Family + Friend + Community is the key. No amount of supplements or cope can beat that. Find a loving family, friends and an engaging community that you can relate to (ex. People who Volunteerily work for forest preservation). Recently I’ve to an eco-village with a spiritual undertone. It was magical. With a 600 acre rural property a bunch of urban people is trying to create a sustainable village community anchored around a shared spiritual belief. It’s inspiring to know that some people have taken extreme steps to be happier.

There are two causes of depression

The first is biological and is easy to treat. There's something wrong with the chemicals in your brain. I'm no doctor so I can't give you the best way to treat it but what I did was buy several supplements until the depression was gone. If you are interested, I can type it for you.

The second cause for depression is ideological. You have no purpose for being. It's up to you to find it.

Personally I pursue stoicism and the worship of aesthetics.

Terrible idea, it is neurotoxic in any amount and habitual use, even 'just' 4x yearly is going to fry your shit eventually. MDMA should really be a one and done sort of experience. Or at least save it for very specific one-off uses, like using it to fix PTSD or -just once- to kickstart a new love for life or whatever.

Psychedelics which are just receptor agonists and potentially neurogenic, on the other hand, are much better suited for occasional habitual use, either at psychoactive doses (no more than once a month) or microdoses (once every third day). Also 2g shrooms is a waste of a dose, too low to be transformative and way too high to be a microdose. Do an eighth, at minimum.

I believe that depression is the direct result of being at the bottom of the social hierarchy. It's innately related to your standing in the peer group you identify with.
The more power you believe you have over others, the higher your serotonin. You don't need to exercise it in malicious ways, but you must be able to prove it is the case when push comes to shove in direct competition.
Looking for chemical imbalances isn't productive, as those causes are true in the vast minority of depression sufferers. One ought to first deal with regular reasons of low serotonin.

>You idiots have a deficiency in serotonin or dopamine, so take your meds


This. If a healthy lifestyle (exercise, healthy food, sleep, no addictions etc etc etc) doesn't fix it you probably should try the meds. Also focusing too much on serotonin is a meme, it's mostly about dopamine.

If you need to twist his situation that far to justify why you think that ALL depression is purely a result of social status then you might need to rethink your position.

No, I had real depression and zoloft cured it. I also love LSD, but you stupid kids think psychedelics magically fix your chemical deficiency when they dont? you probably think depression = being sad. lmao

Obvi you don’t. Learning to manage it (I don’t take meds but they are a good shortcut for some people) by realizing that when you are wading into it the deep end could literally be your very next footfall.

It helps me (after years of managing) the check myself on anything I might be doing, that I could change, that will help me back toward the shore.

A redpill in depression: sometimes you really don’t want to get better, and sometimes you do but your depression makes you feel like you don’t. Sounds simple, but recognizing your own unique mental garbage can really help

Thought about the social hierarchy aspect as well, doubt it's that. I don't know anyone personally that's "above" me or can even compete. I never got handed anything and pay for myself since I turned 18, top tier education (even in European standards) and are currently self-employed working full time on my business I already started while going to University full-time.

A lot of successful business owners told me that I'm light-years ahead of my peers, and those were people whose opinions actually have value in comparison to your average NPC Joe.

I can't think of the last time I compared myself to people I know in real life, I try to compete with people online I know are where I want to be already.

So that theory goes out the window as well.

I'm not depressed, but I am a little listless these days.

I'm 30. I make over $100K a year. I save more than 50% of it. I have no real material wants. I have good sex 3ish times a week.

What's left? I like traveling, but I fear the day that even that stops being novel.

One cause of depression is the mind having cognitive dissonance and wanting to be in a low stimultion environment and be able to figure things out.

From my experience, LSD raises your serotonin. You certainly act like you have elevated levels of the hormone.

Depression can be cured by ephiphanies and changes in perspective. LSD can do this. I know from experience.

unless you take lsd regularly you arent restoring chemicals you already cant naturally produce. Do you take a tab before you walk into work? Probably not.

Those epiphanies, which I also had to some level, were just the things I harbored in me all the time but looked at with a perspective that had more certainty over it's control of it's environment.
Perhaps it gives one a glimpse as to how a high serotonin version of yourself would think, which helps you emulate that later on.
This was my major epiphany from my LSD trip basically.

Take a break from masturbation, cellphone, abs internet for 30 days.

Strong evidence that alot of depression in young people is caused by addiction to one of the above. You're probably addicted and altering your brain chemistry without realising it.

reading this thread and seeing all the suggestions, let me add my own anecdote.
i eat right, i exercise seriously, im always around people in work, i slept at the right times, i meditate, i spend time outside, i dont smoke, i dont drink alcohol and i havent smoked weed or taken any other drugs in years. and im still depressed as fuck.
the ONLY thing that can ease my depression is the fleeting moments when i give myself a goal, even just the idea of something i can do with the future, otherwise i sink back into the same state ive been in for a very long time.

for 10 years ive been forcing myself to get out of bed every day, some days i fail and just lay there for 20+ hours, theres plenty of days i dont even eat even.
this past 3 years has seen my outlook on life tied directly the price of whatever bag of shitcoins i happen to be holding at any given time, without goals we are nothing

severely reduce consumption of meat works too (unless you grew the animals yourself). They're pumped full of chemicals it can't possibly be healthy

could use peanut butter and raw soaked almonds as protein source. Some root vegetables like carrots and sweet potatoes wouldn't hurt either

Eggs are good but try to eat the expensive free range ones or buy your own chicken. Normal mass produced eggs are laid by modified chickens that look like they were prematurely born and their day/night cycle are artificially messed up to shit out eggs non stop - that can't be healthy
