I'm happy, three years ago I was depressed as fuck and had been for most of my adult life. This was mainly due to negative self talk and not living up to my own personal standards. In the most cliche way possible I learnt to love myself and pushed and achieved my own goals, started exercising regularly and spent more time with friends. Currently this is the longest period of my life I've ever been happy and not thinking about offing myself. I can't give you some whimsical phrases that will turn things around for you but I'll try, "No ones coming to save you or hand you an opportunity" it's up to you alone to dig yourself out. Your present situation is the product of your choices. Take responsibility for your life. Forgive your past self they did the best they could all factors considered. GL anon life's not meant to be easy find joy in the struggle because one day you will die and there will be nothing

>What’s the secret
Convert your shittiest shitcoins to monero and buy LSD on the darknet.
If you’re too puss to do that than just get an Adderall perscrition.
