i agree with much of this and i've seen lifestyle and diet changes have profound effects on friends and loved ones who've suffered from depression, what i don't quite understand is the reasons that somebody is diagnosed with the medical condition of Depression in the first place, and how that differs from just being sort of listless or pessimistic or alienated.


One is a temporary condition that can be treated, and, if successful, return the individual to functioning in normal society, and the other is the only correct way to live one's life.

you constantly write rambling bullshit about your life as a college student which is even more boring cause that's what we all talked about like 5 years ago when this shit started

my point is i think it's a bit hypocritical of you to try and act like me discussing my job is somehow any worse than your college dorm life posts, which you make a lot more of, in fact.

Exercise and health are bs because there are plenty of fat people who are happy and shouldn't be. Depression is and always will be other people's fault.

did u actually have depression then?

and i quite like your job stories druw, the juxtaposition between your energetic, high-energy job and degenerate pizza-squat newyorkery makes for quite a romantic milieu. I've actually wrote up a script and sold the rights to your Biopic to Universal, joseph gordon levitt is on board to play you

i don't really know what i think tbh. i mean ive been depressed obviously and yes i was diagnosed as having clinical depression in high school and was prescribed SSRIs for it, but I don't know the difference between 'clinical depression' and something the pharmacy industry makes money off of.

that's a tough question...

i don't really give a shit and i never tried to say i'd been more depressed than you. just that you're not an adult and adult life with depression is MUCH harder than young "adult" life

my 'A.D.D' definitely tends towards the latter....fucking medicine, how does it work?

Anyway to bring it back around it troubles me that being depressed and cutting all down your arms is now indicative of a 'normal, fun-loving all-american boy'

no this whole thing is bizarre bullshit conec is on. i was just pointing out that being depressed when you have to get out of bed in the am to be at work 40-60 hours a week to pay rent is different than when you have to get out of bed so you're not skipping class.

most of my friends with adhd now just sell their shit to people or like take them recreationally, or i guess at least self-medicate and don't follow the normal prescription. imo adhd is probably bullshit but i dont know ive never 'had' it. depression is some sort of thing.

Don't be so damn judgmental jools. When it's african-americans buying rims for their car or mexicans competing to have the longest pointy cowboy shoes we all acknowledge that such competition in status signifier is a rich vein of human life....and yet when whites play out the same dynamic as you saw above, you greet it with sarcasm and ridicule.

I won't go as far to call you a racist but it was very reactionary.

Judge not, that ye be not judged.

For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
