Just don't be a faggot and everything will get better

I'm not really copying with it.

one word: masturbation

I try to forget it by getting to work.

and by work I don't include my 9-5 job. I mean doing projects which give me the illusion that i don't need my 9-5

Also suicide always seems to do the trick

browsing Sup Forums keeps me occupied

and this

I know kicking all those emotions to the side is bad, but that prevents me from feeling down.

Alcohol.
Drank very heavily every day this past week.
Had a massive mental breakdown midweek.
Gonna try CBT again because my depression is getting in the way of me actually having a normal life, fucking sick of never leaving the house and not being able to get or hold down a job.

I can't feel depressed.

Don't "cope" with depression.

Treat it.

Don't be complacent in your depression. Feeling better requires effort.

I keep myself so occupied that I give myself as little time to think about it, anime, video games, writing a book, boxing, school, etc.

Hobbys like painting can help to express and cope

I think I need to get back into that.
I used to be able to spend my whole free time just practicing guitar, piano, drawing ,and everything but now I spend it going "I'm not gonna amount to anything"

How the fuck is anyone able to cope with depression

Clean your house/apt. Eat normal food, drink plain water, get some decent sleep. If it's a particularly difficult day, I like to get some hot Indian or Thai food.

healthy diet
loads of exercise

when you're depressed it sounds like bullshit
but there's a reason they prescribe both of those things to you
they actually work
go at it hard and you'll see results

Nofap

The boxing arena, lots and lots of time in the boxing arena. Keep going till you fall from pain

bingo

A scenery change will do the trick. Drive a couple states (assuming you live in the US) away from you in your vehicle with nothing but clothes and a little money. Make a life that's hopefully more worth living in another place.

Someone usually tells me to "cheer up" and I remember to not be such a faggot. Works good.

"Cheer up!"

See?

I typically cope with fapping, ganja, drawing, and video games.

I recently quit the nic but it used to calm me down quite a bit when I got worked up or started thinking about the future too much. Went cold turkey about 4 days ago tho so fuck me.

Poorly

Drinking, but it's starting to effect my job and make me feel like shit all the time so im going to have to stop drinking and man up and deal with it sober.

LSD is pretty good for when you’re trying to think your life over or just appreciate the good shit in life. Gives you a better perspective.

Anger. Turn the sad hopeless feeling into just pure resentment for the world around you. Convince yourself that this is a game, a sick ridiculous game that is designed for you to feel like a helpless sad lump of pathetic shit, and then use the hate you feel to fuel you. Life is awful and you feel awful because you haven’t found an emotion strong enough to override it. Get fucking angry and steal what you deserve right out of life’s hands.

I don't. It's awful.

Bump

I life my life very positive. When you start seeing everything as potentialy good and stop looking at things negatifly it makes life much easier. Also religion helps a great deal. Whether there is or isnt an afterlife is irrelivant. Believing that you will be rewarded when you die makes life worth living.

Whenever you are depressed just don't be.

Your brain is telling you something. Go deeper into your "depression". Or as i like to call it, sadness. That sadness is your childhood pain that you have never dealt with. Rip that fucking wound open and cry it out. Cry till you cant cry anymore.

Stfu with your horrible advice. "Just cover it up and it will go away".
Trust me. It doesnt

Dumb.

I started meditating, drank less, and stopped procrastinating.

Is it? Why are we as humans given the ability to cry if were never supposed to cry? Enlighten me

Why do you drink?

Listening to Quran

That sounds like something i would do if i wanted to become more depressed

Try a variety of different Meds until you find one that helps a bit. Get a job. Working honestly helps a lot. Even if it's a shit job, it's better than laying on the couch or being on the computer all day. Doing something and getting payed for it is such a good feeling that someone who has never worked has no idea. Alcohol and weed can help or hurt, it's a toss up, but they've been a net positive for me(haven't smoked in over a year tho). Just getting out of the house and being nice to people and getting that in return can really help.

Distraction

I never said you should cover it up. You should defintly combat it with positivity and religion. You are not unique, there are plenty of people who are depressed. They combat their deprision. You on the other hand seem to give in.

Cope with it? Shit I use it as fap fuel.

I work 60+ hours a week, and drink on my days off.

By being a fucking badass. Every time I feel the dark creeping up I hit the gym or look back on all of my man-scars and think about all the cool shit I've done.

...
We don't

I don't

Depression and boredom are brothers. Fuck then both. Porn and anal sex toys help.

it's not covering it up, it's dragging the fucker out by the hair and beating the shit out of it.

Let's leave the nancy bullshit on reddit, ok?

You the bomb man

Not OP, but I've been through ~10 different meds all of them made things worse, not better. Meds are great for some people, not for everyone, lets quit pushing drugs.

Alcohol, lots and lots of alcohol, friend

You are covering it up with positivity and religion. I was just in my deprivation chamber and turned off my thought and dealt with my pain. I do this every chance i get

Whats reddit? How do you beat it up again?

Have you tried directly dealing with the thing that is causing said depression or simply moving on? I find that helps me out quite a lot actually...
HURR DURR

Friends, drugs, alcohol, food

sorry, forgot to post reaction pic derp

Wow. Simple and to the point.
Do you think anybody truly has the balls to do this tho? Does anybody truly have the balls to deal with themselves free of distraction and/or addiction?

just gotta look forward to the future. it's hard as fuck, i wanna kill myself everyday, but i hold out.

daydreaming and staying awake seems to make it worse

It comes and goes. The mania makes it all worth, shits better than drugs.

I choose to see the beauty in this world.
Some choose to see the evil, the pain, the great suffering, but is that not an aspect of life? You can only feel true happiness by having experienced true pain.
In a while you will all be through this part of life, and by then have a standard to see how much better you are then.
If life is at its worst, everything will be better. It is why a bad Monday makes a great weekend, and why a great youth makes people feel empty when they are older.
Be happy that you are hurt now, when you can still change, and will be wiser because of it.

And in time, you will be able to help someone that is going through the same.

Fuck you, you fucking asshole.

Spend time with the girl I love

In the immortal words of Bob Marley
"No woman no cry"

You do realize that it means "No, woman, don't cry", don't you?

Don't put your self-esteem on other people, but yourself and your future.

I drank heavily for a while. Still drink, but I'm slowing down and slowly replacing that with other things.

So now I clean, meditate, and binge on all forms of media. Use all that inspiration from what I've watched, read, etc. etc. if I'm fortunate enougg to get that creative spark. I reach out to my friends and make plans, because even if I have to force myself to follow through with them, I always feel better once I do.

But most importantly, I'm training myself to no longer look at things through the lens of "good" or "bad", and instead see every obstacle I face as yet another opportunity to learn and grow.

It gets easier, friend.

Hold out for what. The problem is u are bringing the same old u to the future. You can start fixing yourself right now. If u have balls, that is.

Therapy and drugs. Both by professionals that are invested in helping and hands on.

Wheres the future? Is it anywhere outside your head?

Smoke pot and watch TV

Not that guy but what it’s calls isn’t what it means, no cry means don’t cry

>How do you cope?
By letting life slowly eat me away.
