Re: Depression - January 26th 2024, 02:17 PM

I have to find things to do with my time to distract myself. I've picked up reading lately since then I'm in a whole new world, and have also started watching more on Hulu. Going to the gym four days a week helps because it gets out all of my energy. I take a class there so I talk to some of the people in the class. I also play games on my Switch.

Do you think it would help for you to meet new people who you can connect with? Your town may have clubs, social groups, sports teams, volunteer opportunities, and things like that. If you pick up something like that you'll be meeting people who have something in common with you and you can start to form a friendship with them.

I also talk about my issues with my therapist a lot. It's okay if you don't want to tell a therapist what is going on right away, you can build up to it. They're generally unbiased listeners so it can help to get things out.


Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
