the way to treat "social anxiety" likely does involve coming out of your comfort zone, or, as an uneducated mong like yourself would say "stop being a faggot". This doesn't apply to other disorders that are caused by problems in the brain

[Anonymous No.11981766]

Our whole society is effectively a charity for pretty people. Everyone downplays how easy they have it. This obsession with pretending we live in a meritocracy while pretty peeps get handed everything for free creates a lot of mental illness. Not only are average people at a huge disadvantage relative to the privileged class, they are gaslit into thinking otherwise.

If we stopped respecting pretty peeps and handing them everything a lot of this stuff would go away.

[Anonymous No.11981777]

>>11981751
Nope, because they're not normal. Hence normality having nothing to do with it. Got a high grade on my english proficiency test so it's an issue on your hand.

it's human nature to think tall, good looking, charismatic = good, let's treat them nicely, give them promotions, and a plethora of other shit. Nothing we can do about it. I know because I'm good looking and above average height, literally never had to do anything to get people to like me, which is incredible considering that I have trouble with eye contact and anxiety.

[Anonymous No.11981801]

>>11981289
yes. depression is usually RELATIVELY a short term mental disorder. it can last a month maybe 6 months but it will end (at most a year). your meds aren't a cure all but if you take them everyday (which you probably dont because you are making this thread) then it will hold you off until you recover from your mental illness and can go off of your pills. depressed people are retarded so they dont realize many things. like you cant just take a pill once and have it fix all your issues. some depression medicine takes a week to start working after taking it everyday. they take it for a day and bitch and whine that they are still depressed and are really sad when they have pills that can help them. take your meds retard. pic related its you.

humans are nature. And nature is not good or evil, it just is. Those are human abstractions. Besides, if eugenics was a thing, or even natural selection, we would have stronger, better looking, smarter people. Technology and society lets the lowest denominator survive and reproduce.

I don't have any meds. Doctor said I likely have ADHD, depression, anxiety, and should fix depression with meds before dealing with ADHD meds. I don't even know if he's correct so I didn't go for it.

that's what i'm doing. Don't see the point though because medications have bad side effects. I lose no matter what I do and if I have ADHD I have to spend my life working harder than everybody else to get the same things done, putting me at a disadvantage

if your depression is so not serious that side effects of anti depression medication is worst then the actual depression, with any medication or any dosage then your depression is not that bad.

(Preface by saying I'm not a doctor and all that, and this is very much armchair psychology)

You need to activate your cockroach gene.
Consider the cockroach. It doesn't care about the world at large, or the state of civilization, or any of that. It needs to survive, and all it cares about are the things directly related to that aim. Be more like the cockroach, and care about yourself and those who belong to you. Don't care about the state of the world, and you won't be depressed (assuming that is the reason you are depressed).

Meds are like a wheelchair anon. They won't help you walk, but they'll help you get moving. It's up to you to determine the root causes of your issues and deal with them. Learn how your mind works and actively work to change the parts that focus on negatives and inject self-doubt and discomfort into your daily life. Eventually, the discomfort fades, and you can learn to use your particular mind to solve your particular problems.

probably didn't need to because people with ADHD could still do ok back then. The world today punishes people who have it.

Brain "problems". That's it. Despite my extensive effort to succeed, I still couldn't stop getting distracted during lectures, or struggling with reading books.

Same. My post was mostly about overcoming depression. Next (and what I still struggle with) is brain problems. Stimulants help tremendously with focus in my experience. Caffeine weakly, nicotine moderately (don't start using it if you don't already though), adderall tremendously. Adderal gave me temporary ED, and fatigue when it wore off though.

24 years it is for me now and there is no end in sight. Depression is cancer of the soul, destroying you from the inside until it kills you.
