go buy a bottle of vitamin D3, take 8000 I.U. per day. YES 8000. it will say on the bottle that this is like 10,000% your daily requirement don't worry, I do this everyday, and it cured my 15+ year depression overnight. also caffeine will burnout your dopamine system, so avoid it at all costs if you are prone to depression.

Medfag here. First you have to realize that depression is a disease like any other. You can't cure pneumonia with trying to change your mindset and neither can you cure depression.

Listen to the guy with the D3, he has done his research: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1365-2796.2008.02008.x/full

Second you should do some exercise. It cures depression on a genetic level: http://bjp.rcpsych.org/content/180/5/411.short

If that doesn't help, seek professional help with counseling and shit and remember to take your fucking meds. A 1/3 of us went through this shit, but I can speak from personal experience that you emerge stronger from this shit but you need to take it head on.

It will take less motivation than you think. Remember that exercise releases endorphins that increase the likelihood of you wanting to do it again. It's a genuinely good feeling.

You only need a small amount of willpower to bootstrap yourself initially.

Willpower is an illusion, just do things without thinking about it

The less you think about an action the easier it is to go through with it

So for example if you decide to go to the gym, don't fucking think about going to the gym. Just do it one step at a time, and don't think. Grab gym shorts and a t-shirt, then walk next to the gym, then go in the gym, then do something (anything) for a while, then come home. You'll feel much better, if not for the workout, then for the confidence boost.

OP, if you're still here, there's something you can try.

Someone on /b/ replied on some thread some time ago with an advice that worked for me almost every time I was feeling severely down (which happens quite often). Don't dismiss this, I'm not trolling or being sarcastic, try it for yourself. Here goes:


1. Take a couple of socks.
2. Put socks on hands.
3. Sit there for a while looking at your sock-hands, and think of yourself sitting there with socks on your hands.
4. Make a few random hand movements if necessary.
5. Feel so much fucking better.

I owe many happy days to that anonymous guy.
