>>81712866 (OP)When you're in a depressive state it feels like no matter what you do, nothing works and you can't get out of it. And each time you try and fail again you feel even more broken and like there's no way out. But there's so many things to try that I think it's worth it to not give up.
Practically speaking, if you have anything that gets in the way of being a fully functional human being, if you have a mental illness (you said you had ocd and ptsd), talk to a therapist, get help, get on meds, literally fucking anything to get over that, that should be your number one priority.
