Why have depression rates raised in the 21st century?

The rise of liberals

Depression is a first world luxury.

The internet is responsible for this.

Our monkey brains are in no way able to handle the excessive amount of stimulation that exists today. People aren't taught how to handle it, and so we're collectively paying for it.

Life is depressing.

Damn OP, really makes you think doesn't it.

WebMD

No, it's liberals and WebMD

the empty materialism of modern life. no god, no sense of purpose, with poor quality relationship and working for material gain knowing u will probably be one of the wage slaves eternally. its what happens when humans come to terms with themselves in this materialist society

fpbp

This too. We're not designed for full-on materialism unless you somehow abide by purposeful materialism, which is difficult.

Why would they?

>tfw my country is more depressed than the entire middle east

life is ridiculous

Why don't Arabs kill themselves? Are they too stupid to realize how dirty they are?

Why do blacks commit suicide so much?

Your mother is a first world luxury for Canadian COCK.

their heads are filled with faith and hate. counter productive u might say, but keeps them from sliding into materialism and questioning their own existence.

Lol, the most free Country in the Mid East and they all killing themselves haha what are the Pales whinging about?

Because they dont have some good Fluoxetin.

Degeneracy.

its why i'm a fascist, its a secular idea which fills the void of a religion, as it has its own dogma and precepts, and answers to the meaning of life and morality.

>whinging

I dont have time to sleep bro, i got work and school and my fucking car got key'd, you think i've got time to sulk around and bitch?

>i'm a fascist
>I want to be ruled around by the state and do whatever they tell me
can you just fuck off?

Ok, Wong

Because a simple life with reward for work is gone.

just because your state is a disgrace and u can't be fucked acting on it

That's "John Doe" to you, Fatty McFatFuck.

>no god

thats right there is no god.

>ad hominem
fuck off you moron
you know that you're not going to be the leader of a fascist state right? just an ordinary citizen

Are you me?

i'd be happy with that. can u say the same?

Delet this.

please don't kill yourself we love you

Liberals, PC, Islam, no purpose, speaking the truth gets you into trouble, shitty low paying jobs demand more experience and education than some of the best paying jobs in the past, Multicultural societs foster hate as proven by ever study ever done on the subject, beta blockers for children, surpressing boyish behaviour... honestly the list is long i stop now.

How'd you know I'd kill myself in the upcoming 5years?

I'd ask

>implying you wouldn't be far better off with a PURPOSE where you do whatever your righteous state/god demands of you
or do you really believe you're that much better off wandering about aimlessly deciding nothing and then dying unfulfilled?

If you were depressed 100 years ago people would tell you to shut the fuck up.
Today they will legitimize it and give you pills and therapy.

Isn't it bedtime kiddo?

I'm not talking about complete individualism
I'd like to complain on Sup Forums
I'd like to have guns
I'd like to believe what I want without the state literally putting me in a gulag

This sounds like such pussy talk. Grow the fuck up. Life was never perfect and it never will be. How ironic that you complain about "materialism" when you are shitposting on Sup Forums all day and doing nothing productive. Fucking Australian loser.

No. THIS IS A PARTY ALL NIGHT LONG, YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!!!!

the problem with depression is that there are whiny fucks and there are depressed people

depressed people do whatever they need and are willing to do, then kill themselves at some point

whiny fucks will never commit suicide and will forever be useless

100 years ago whiny fucks were told to fuck off or were executed

Take a chill pill, mate.
I'm just finishing the 10th grade and I have already decided that I am going to have a NEET year after finishing high school.

I guess you're in university so you might think about being a NEET for one or 2 years aftrr finishing it.

>dying unfulfilled
That means you are a sheep who can't find his own path if not for some people to decide it for you. I guess you are bowing to your superiors and take heed of everything they say.

Your brave heathen ancestors didn't want you like that

Everything that was once authentic has now become an artificial representation of that experience.

naturally when considered from a selfish viewpoint then you will be severely unhappy in terms of fascism, nationalism, and cooperation

but if you were to consider everyone else ahead of you first, consider your species ahead of you, consider your next of kin ahead of you, truly believe in this, then focus that belief into your everyday actions, not only would you be fulfilled but you would be happy. is my assumption anyway.

Anywhere jews have control becomes dissolate and sad, and they control a lot now a days

People lead empty, spiritually meaningless lives with no higher purpose and no guiding principles. Nowadays Western liberals are refusing even the basic biological principle of favouring the ingroup over the outgroup which is frankly unfathomably unnatural and spiritually damaging

...

Industrial society and its future

No decent work.

I firmly believe the cause of their lunacy of "standing up for the "minorities" and gays" is just mental illness they contracted by listening to mentally ill gays and trans bable on and they eat it right up becoming more loony

your "own path" is the path of selfishness, it is the path of unfulfillment. you will never truly believe in anything, never truly aspire for anything, it will all be drab and dull as you go from one temporary goal to the next pointless endeavour.

there is no benefit to following this path of selfishness, it forces you to focus on nothing but yourself and how you play into it all, and at the end of the ride, perhaps sooner, you realize you cannot carry along whatever it is you mustered in a lifetimes worth of escapades, rendering it all obsolete.

this is why religion is such a divider. people want to sleep safely and fight happily knowing they are fighting for a cause.

its less complaining and more pointing out fact.this is a thread on why western countries are more suicidal despite better living standards, and i proffered an answer. evidently i'm doing more being productive on this thread than u leaf-man

No, it's you being a fucking loser Australian pussy that blames the "modern world" for your own failures. You're a loser.

>being underage

all u seem to be doing is insulting without even addressing the substance of the thread. you're the loser here. i'm not blaming anyone, i'm just pointing it out. in any case i'm largely immune to it as i am not dominated by consumeriat materialism. u seem to be taking out your anger on your modern world life on me, which is quite kektastic.

Because of Sup Forums.

Without struggle, apathy fills the vacuum.

Destroy the traditions that have sustained human society for millennia and what do you get?

Leftism = Entropy.

Because murdering those with more stuff is no longer a valid means to acquire more stuff.

Suicide rates in ancient times were much lower, murder rate was however MUCH higher.

I'm addressing your little "argument" AND insulting you, you loser Australian fuckup. Yes you are blaming other entities for your problems. Read your first post again, you bogan piece of trash. I'm not taking out my anger out on you. Your stupidity punishes you enough. You insist the "modern world" is the problem, but no, it's you. Drink bleach.

Self-preservation instinct is the true final boss of real life.

Our brains are chemically programmed to reward behaviors that would help us survive in a prehistoric world. With the advancement of technology we increasingly overstimulate and devalue the things that used to bring us value.

24 hour news cycle going for whatever gets a big headline, which most often is depressing awful news. Add in widened communication ability through the internet and other instantaneous methods of communication and it's easy to perceive all the suffering people go through every day, even if they're totally disconnected from you personally.

Also better diagnosis.

>slavic suicide race
Most of those are because people don't come out of the closet.

Sauce: I have a family in russia.

More suicides done by weak people, who cares?

>Most of those are because people don't come out of the closet.

Then why is the rate so low in the Middle East? Is the meme true? Are whites less manly, more likely to be cucked, and more gay than Mudshits on average>?

>I'm poor
>And I'm always going to be a loser

Ever heard of a self fulfilling prophecy?

Rise of feminism, atheism, decrying of masculinity, higher divorce rates because of feminism.

Humans derive most of their happiness from romantic relationships.

Feminism is actively destroying normal relationships and the nuclear family...

So yeah I blame feminism for most of this.

>2012
I'd like to see 2015 at least, it probably got even higher.

Wouldn't you if you were African?

t. Schopenhauer

Meanwhile, in Mexico...

Happiest place on earth, we wuz mayans and shit.

Womens liberation. Thats the big Killer.

Short answer: jews
Slightly longer answer: people see how fucked everything is and how there is no prospect of getting better in any way shape or form.

Gotta go back now, slaving to make it through next month.

Libshit combined with not enough people actually getting out into the great outdoors.

Destruction of culture and decaying civilization

> people don't come out of the closet.
what does it mean?

We no longer have to struggle for our survival, so our inherit fight-or-flight drives find another module to express itself through

Depression is not usually an "illness". It's the logical consequence of being
>a materialist, and
>smart

If you are those two things, you'll probably be depressed on and off for your entire life.

It's non-depressed materialists that are mentally ill. They'll happily tell you they have no free will, and that after the heat death of the universe, no record will remain of any choices they make. But they sure don't act like it.

Read The Conspiracy Against the Human Race by Thomas Ligotti

>the British colonial parts of the world have high suicide rates
>the French ones don't

They miss us lads, they miss the empire, that's why.

LOL DAMN SO EDGY GOT HIS ASS LMAO WHAT A PUSSY LMAO LMAO DOOD LMAO GOT HIM HAHA EDGY

Are you drunk? Why are you so mad?

Damn that's depressing man

based Putin

because most peoples lifestyle is pure shit; not enough exercise etc.

Why don't Muslims ever commit suicide?

The thing is together we made 1st world super powers and regional powers. France makes shitty African tribes and communists too busy starving and working to worry about how shit their life is

Anglosphere formation when?

Because jews/liberals have taken away every reason to live.

Ppl relize how the world spins.

Yep! Has nothing to do with the communists and socialists teaching kids.

dumb fucks and incompetents run everything now

nobody has anything to strive towards other than financial gain which breeds depression

people are just hopeless in general for the time being

Because rising levels of automation and computer effeciency, rather than making most (non-menial) jobs easier, have just greatly increased both the workload and complexity of the work that the average worker has to do.
Also, the Jews did all of this.

It means you're actually a raging faggot.

They do but most of them don't have the cahones to blow themselves up

>Then why is the rate so low in the Middle East?

gays can fuck kids
