Are you eating a whole food diet and doing at least 1 hour of cardio a day?
Eating right and daily exercise LITERALLY cured my suicidal depression. I was in a catatonic depression for 6 months, and running an hour a day and eating a low-carb clean keto diet fixed me. I'm not even joking.

Also reading will only compound your depression. Happy people don't think excessively, so reading is not the right avenue for betterment.

I'm lucky to still be in college but I will need to change up my game soon once I graduate. Although campuses are such open places you can get around anywhere. I love colleges because its the "Big Transition" for girls at this age isn't so much about moving out or even being away from old friends and family - it's about being around unfamiliar women. I used to stalk several girls on my campus during my Freshmen year of college. It wasn't anything too creepy or even strange and most of the time it was fairly accidental. For example, one girl simply had a similar route to class that I did. I'd just go a bit more out of my way to follow her. I liked to listen to their gossip and always tried to find out their favorite places on campus or nearby to catch up on their lives.

Girls pressure each other into strange scenario's, particularly when it comes to showing off their bodies. I think most women are slightly Lesbian and enjoy looking at each other's breasts. I used to masturbate to this a lot when I was younger and thinking about it now is still a great pleasure, but I think that this is only partly true in the end. A Cock for a woman is a kind of violent insertion into their body, you know? That's why I think for women with new women it's a kind of "fight or flight" mechanic where they can try each others breasts without repercussion. A lot of guys think in terms of their own Cocks and this is probably because they like to look at mine, but really girls are really only thinking about themselves and the bodies of their girl friends. Guys have nice cocks if they can make them forget their friends breasts. I know this because I masturbated near the window of one of the girls I used to stalk. She lived in a small apartment on the ground floor. I pressed my cock against the window. It was cold as the season was settling into winter. Steam could be seen from the ejaculation I put onto her window. She must have saw my shadow in the window through the folded curtains because she screamed. I ran as fast as I could and escaped without any penalty.

Later on I heard her talking to her friends about my Cock. I knew I had a nice one because she was talking about it the next day and not thinking about her friends breasts so much. Being with new women is always an exciting prospect.

I think of a few others from time to time. Another gem was a Moldovan girl who I got a little too close with. She used to work both volunteering at the library on campus for student hours and also she was interested in Communication studies. She was easy to follow around because she was lost all the time. Her English wasn't great but she was surviving university so not terrible. I managed to get into one of her classes after seeing her schedule, I don't know why I was so intrigued. She had an okay ass, a little on the saggy side and her breasts were a bit tightly pressed together if you understand my meaning. She didn't have a lot of girl friends, and if you understand my prior theory she miight not have been a LEsbian. Maybe a bisexual, its hard to tell with women. So I got maybe a little cocky here. This was Freshmen year as well, really the best year of my life.

One time we had a Nature walk for a biology class. It was pretty nice, an autumn day that's just in the early "golden hour" of its peak. There's a real great time to go for a walk. I remember I was stuck with a partner (the assignment involved cataloging) who could barely speak English. She was from Moldova and at least 30 years old. She had a funny name I can't recall even if I tried now. I remember her breasts and flat face, she had brown hair that was put up in a tight bun. Her breasts were the perfect size and had a good firm grip to them. I touched them "on accident" when I feigned tying my shoe lace. I recall apologizing to her but she laughed, I think she was just confused. I notice most people are confused when they get sexually assaulted for the first time, I can understand that because it's not something they assume automatically.

Later on in the walk our group got a bit lost. There were a series of paths around the campus and our professor was one of those "hippie" types that never leaves their mansion. A real grassfed burger if you ask me. The Moldovan girl got sexually assaulted twice that day, because I gently rubbed my hand across her ass when she bent over to pick a rock up. She didn't know this was me because I hid behind several other students. I masturbated to this when I got home (It was around the time I was masturbating heavily and reading Vonnegut and James Joyce). It was an okay feeling.

I tried asking her out on a date the next class but her English was simply too poor. I realized I could tell her anything and she would barely understand. Sometimes I used to speak "pig latin" to her and tell her that I wanted to see her naked and urinate on her stomach. She used to laugh then. I wonder if she's laughing now.

I don't always try to be so involved. Last year I had a network of most of the girls in my year. I knew their places of work, their boyfriends, what bars they liked, how often they went out. I'd follow a couple of them, usually the ring leaders. Women love following a leader, especially another woman. It gives them confidence, they can feel sexy as a woman and they can also hide behind their lead woman if things get a little out of hand. But everytime I noticed that with some pressure ,you can single out the weak one of the pack with some careful observation skills. I used to leave pseudo notes from time to time from the various boys they'd date. I didn't even bother with learning their hadnwriting, the ones without confidence never had the courage to confront anybody on any of this. They'd range from perverse to outlandish, sometimes in between. A little Herculean action on my part I like to think. To top it all off, I use to wipe my ass with some of them before sneaking it into places I'd know they find out. Women are more predictable than men and even easier to play with. I love playing the games with them. Imagine getting a sick love letter smeared with dried feces from the boyfriend of your ring leader but you're kind of the outlier of the social group, and women have a much more intense hierarchy than men do. Now that caused a lot of laughs for me.

In Middle School when me and this kid named Jason used to exchange pornographic pictures we'd print out at home from the internet. He had a "big boob" fetish, pretty common for a 13-14 year old but I was more interested in women wearing overalls and working on a farm. But this isn't really relevant, I just wanted to paint a better picture.

One time Jason and I decided it would be funny to lock the wheels on this girls wheelchair. She had some kind of mental disorder that gave her a low cognitive awareness, but she was capable enough of getting around the school. We'd lock her wheel chair and watch her struggle to figure out why she couldn't move. Often, this ended with her "aide" coming and unlocking the wheels and scolding her for not remembering. Jason started to feel bad but I got interested. If she was so unaware and incapable of telling the "aide" we were doing this to her, what else could I get away with.

I started combing her hair and she would respond by making some clapping noises. I'd have to retreat in these cases because it drew attention. Of course I kept locking her wheels which only led the aide to get really frustrated with her and start ignoring her. It was around mid-year when I finally sexually assaulted her by twisting both her nipples. She was so shocked she couldn't form a clear response (she could never form a clear response, but this was exceptional even for her). They were hard and I was excited, I think she was too. I got scared though, I was young and having a hard time at home because my dad had me doing some "home improvement projects".

I concluded that being with a girl that isn't really consciously aware isn't worth it. There is fun for awhile but ultimately it's just frustrating.

am not a Bisexual but one time I did hold the door open for a man. He had a plain brown coat on and it was a little windy outside. He was perfectly capable of getting the door himself, and to be honest it was rather an instinctual move. I had just left and the wind hit me when I saw him from the corner of my eye. I held that door open and he walked past with a "Than'ye..." you know the sort of muffled "thanks" you get when someone is a little surprised and embarrassed.

I didn't stare at his body and didn't think about him getting into his car. But that was probably the first Homosexual experience in my life.

The worst part about your post is I can't even remember my first blow job. I know I've had at least two but for my first one I just don't remember it. I was in High School at the time with a serious bed wetting problem, I also had been taking some prescription medication to help with some "bacne" problems that had sprouted up due to a surge of unstable hormones. I went to a party where some kids had a small bonfire in the back yard, they were okay but it wasn't anything special. We had Bud Light and some Amstel's, I think there was Rolling Rocks too.

I remember drinking a "Jack and Coke" and thinking how bad it tasted. I wanted to go home about an hour into the gathering but decided to stick around. There was a girl there who I had a couple of classes with, we made jokes about the teachers and home work. I told her she looked nice and she said thanks, we talked for about an hour and she was drunk. You can tell a girl is drunk because she starts becoming more physically animated with light flushing around the cheeks and glossy eyes. I knew I'd scored a winner, the problem was it was late and I knew I needed to sleep.

We went inside and started making out. I remember running my tongue along the front of her teeth to see what it felt like. She was so drunk she didn't even care. Sometime after that I fell asleep, but I woke up with my pants undone and my dick was lightly wet. She had vomited at some point, because her breath smelt bad and she had some stains on her shirt. We didn't talk much after that night, I think she is studying in a community college but hasn't declared any real major yet. I can understand that, life is a challenge. >>15765596

What exactly are you trying to get out of books?
Are you looking for some books that will change your worldview or overall mindset so that you won't be suicidal? Or are you looking for depressing books to relate to? There are good reading charts for either.
Is there anything specific that is making you suicidal? If there isn't anything that you can specifically name, you should seek professional help since that's more likely mental illness.
What keeps me from being depressed is that I have extremely low expectations for the world around me, while having modest expectations for myself.

Keto is an unhealthy diet, you only saw benefits because you stopped eating twinkies and frozen pizzas every day. In addition to your cardio routine.

Just eat a well balanced diet and do not try keto unless you're highly committed (no more than 50g of carbs a day) and have literal diabetes or epilepsy. There will be a health trade off and its value is your decision to make

not this guy but i don't understand how people find a solid foundation for a spiritual life.

i knew this guy who was seriously and intelligently christian (shelve rows full of philosophy and theological works) and i found that quite beautiful, yet his foundation for his christian faith was an experience of a "calling", where he "felt a presence" that he "said yes to", and i can't relate to that.

neither have i had such an experience nor do i believe that if i had it, i could trust it; it would seem to me just some quirk of my subjective experience similar to depressive episodes just inverted, a moment of inspiration that is enjoyable in itself but ultimately just that, not a pointer to anything else, unable to provide further guidance.

It's way easier to do on keto because your body starts burning mainly fat for energy. Not to mention that keto suppresses your appetite.

This doesn't work unless your depression was so surface level that you as a person would improve the world by killing yourself because you're a shallow faggot.
