I think for men specifically, something this user forgot to mention was that eventually that sadness can develop into anger. And anger keeps you alive instead of anheroing. Likely an evolved psychological trait in males.

The apathy is death

>>81466180 (OP)
This passage is someone who is depressed doing all the wrong things to help themselves. Lacking energy or drive to do anything is real, but resorting to apathy or anger is poisonous. Avoiding anything that isn't basic self-care, or viewing others as a burden is a cancer that leads to a misery spiral making it all grow worse. If you don't have the energy to do anything and you cannot meet others needs, then if they are someone who cares about you ask them for help. When you're depressed you need the initial push to get going because you're out of juice. If there is anyone out there who is willing to help you out, or to physically drag you out of your sad sloth den then you should ask for this. Someone depressed will view this as burdening someone else, but they are way more burdened if you cut them off because you see them as a burden or if you wallow alone for eternity so they worry longer.

>ask for help

You should never show weakness to normies. The government will also take away your rights if you inform them that you have le depressionino.

>>81466505
The person in the image is a normie outside of being depressed, because they have people who care about them though. My critique is only valid to people in a situation where they have people who care about them and not just people paid to care.

largely, yes

it's been years man, i'm sure i've had pushes but they don't last. same as

>>81466180 (OP)
yeah pretty much, i cant focus on anything either, cant learn anything, have no drive or interest in anything. just anger that i dont have those feelings and the need to torture myself to try and fix it which never works.

Whoever wrote that is a moron who knows nothing about depression. It's just another fat tattooed whore spamming buzzword filled pop-sci word salad in a transparent attempt to take money from weaker people. Evil people like this should be banned from coming within 300 yards of a keyboard .

For sure. The push ain't a cure, it's just being forced out of your hole to have a temporary reprieve. Some people don't get better, and some people who offer those pushes months or years down the line stop being willing to give those moments of escape.

>>81466180 (OP)
No. it doesn't. It's some bullshit.

Urbanization causes this

>>81466180 (OP)
Yeah. This is how I feel, always tired. And i need to force myself through every act of socialising, my gut feeling is just walk away and have rest (rest that doesn't bring any energy).

>>81466180 (OP)
Yeah kind of, except I don't have any friends

>>81466180 (OP)
Pretty much. Though I avoid anything outside 'the routine' that can make me happy, as I could never afford to do it often enough.
I just enjoy the copes I have at home; laptop and vidya. I really want sex, but I am too autist and poor to socialise, so I am still incel as fuck.
Late 30s now. Over the past 10-15 years, my anger and repressed anger has faded away. My family are dead. I just want to die in my sleep.
Though I was unable to wage-cuck without sperging out, I found that NEETdom and hermitdom was far better for me.
I just try to cultivate indifference as much as I can. Keeping away from normcunts seems to be a help. Just a shame about the inceldom.
The fact is whenever I was busy or social, I couldn't stand it. I am so used to being a loner that I can't live any other way now.
It just sucks that I cannot get a fuck-buddy, even an old MILF/GILF, to fulfil my sexual needs for the rest of this miserable life.
