What does Sup Forums do to battle depression? Is there any good cartoons or comics to read when you think the world is against you?

I watch horse show.

I watch Gurren Lagann

It is the best pick me up when I'm down

Your favorites are always a good choice, but they're more of a distraction that anything else.

Any combination of therapy, mindfulness, yoga, and medication are the real keys to help.

I watch porn

Sometimes I drink, then watch a bunch of emotional (both really sad and really happy) scenes. It's like therapy for me.

80s cartoons are the best if you ask me

something about the old pencil and the aged jokes makes it great

Just give up. Why you still fighting if you come to this toilet bowl?

Because this sites the only thing i can talk too
I heard its good, i might watch it

SMOKE DAT MUHFUGGIN KUSH NIGGA

I watch Arthur

>Jack Nicholson on the set of "The Shining" (1980)

>feel depressed? why not just financially burden yourself by throwing hundreds of dollars at some unqualified hack to just listen to your feelings, then play trial and error with expensive medications that may or may not make you impotent, bipolar, or suicidal?
Nice try, Dr. Goldstein. I think I'll keep my hard earned savings and spend them on more fiscally responsible novelties instead.

Alcohol.

Read Flex Mentallo.

It is my consistent turn-to piece of art when i get depressed.

I spend my time planning my suicide. I've found a nice place a fair way away from the main road, a small abandoned farm up in the old northern valleys. On May 1st I will hang myself there.

Im sorry user, why do you want to kill yourself so badly?

Because I have no friends, no job, no gf, and my family hates me

Pretty sure everyone would be better off if I offed myself

also applies to

Dont do it kid

thats honestly a dumb fucking reason to kill yourself user. You have a laptop/phone to post on so i assume you have some sort of money. Theres probably at least one person who wishes they had access to the things you have access to right now. Why don't you do something constructive instead of posting about it on Sup Forums?

lifting helped a LOT

Just keep trying and hope that you're not a disgrace to your family.

Dont you fucking dare tell someone there reason to die is dumb
Whats your cell, we can talk

>Spent hundreds on therapy.
>The other day my therapist tells me she's "grasping at straws" and doesn't "know what to do with me"

The most hilarious part is I've lived my entire life defending psychology and therapy as legitimate, and now that I'm actually experiencing it, it's bullshit, because nobody knows what they're doing.

My laptop is a hand-me-down from my dad, i mooch of the neighbors wi-fi
Don´t have one

>giving cell phone on Sup Forums

"Battle"?

That's because therapists are normies so to them their worst case scenario is someone being upset they got dumped, they cant understand the life of somebody who goes on Sup Forums everyday, they cannot help

You got a kik?

why the fuck would he have a kik if he didn't have a phone?

>inb4 hurr can use on compute

no shit it's primarily a phone app though

Seriously though, I'm not that other user, but if you want to talk to someone leave your e mail or something. I'll talk to you if you want me to.

Look on the bright side, OP. If we're lucky we'll all get nuked pretty soon.

>Is there any good cartoons or comics to read when you think the world is against you?
Nope, no matter how good escapism can be, your problems are still there. It's hard to get distracted like that.

I have a crippling fear of both talking to people and opening up my feelings, so I probably won't

I like to watch a good healing cartoon once in a while myself.

This is why I've never even considered a therapist. Plus I'm poor

I don't. I just listen to music and wonder where everything went wrong for me. It's a weird feeling. I know what to do to improve my life but I just lack any and all motivation to better myself whatsoever. I ain't got nothing to live for. I even feel like a burden whenever I apply for a job as pathetic as it sounds. Some poor motherfucker in the HR department has to waste their time sifting through my shit ass resume.

Not letting the dread set in by doing other shit

>tfw self-confidence is so low you automatically believe everyone in the room hates you as soon as you walk in

Don't do it, user. If you can find a reason to wait another month, you still have something to live for.

Are you me?

god tier taste, user

I have a few options, actually. The first is that I go back and reread a manga I actually first heard about here on Sup Forums called Shinya Shokudo (Midnight Diner). It's about a little food stall in Japan that's open from midnight to around 7 in the morning, and centers around the stories that happen there. Over the course of thirteen or so chapters, you get to know the stall's regulars and their favorite orders, and you learn a little about the stall's proprietor, too. It's a bit formulaic, but it really is the definition of "comfy", so it's generally my go-to when I'm feeling down. Doesn't hurt that it recently got adapted for a Netflix series, if reading isn't your thing.

My second option is The Muppet Christmas Carol, which usually cheers me right up. By the time I hit "It Feels Like Christmas", I'm usually feeling better.

Lastly, the nuclear option is Yotsuba. Yotsuba has never failed to lift my spirits, even when everything else failed. Guess there's a reason she's this site's mascot.

I like to watch anything upbeat. Shows obviously aimed at a younger audience like horse show and Wander Over Yonder usually do the trick.

Also it's nice to get drunk, watch something depressing like Bojack Horseman [/spoiler} at 3AM and just cry it out till you fall alseep. Whatever works.

Because therapy is a gamble user, it works for some people and it doesn't nothing for others and there is no way of knowing until you try
I hate how people believe everything has a clear easy solution, it's not like fixing a TV remote, most of the time therapy doesn't even fix things but attempts to keep patients under control

Do you think you will come back as a ghost?

If I wanted to come back I wouldn't fucking hang myself, now would I?

You too, huh?

>it's bullshit, because nobody knows what they're doing.

This is so true.
But honestly it has helped me before- since I don't have anyone to actually talk to. And sometimes they tell me things that I need to hear.

But unless you find the right therapist, it's mostly bullshit.

I watch Morel Orel ;_;

Attack on Titan is cathartic as fuck

Medication.

Medication helps, quite a bit.

I just browse the internet, eat chocolate and take my medication.

Good for you, bro. Life is objectively terrible when you get into terrible circumstances, sometimes the only solution is death. Don't let others distract you from your dreams.

Listen to the Spongebob soundtrack.

>What does Sup Forums do to battle depression?
I don't.

I watch cartoons about OTHER people getting depressed.

Or maybe you're just an unsalvageable wreck of a person.

I don't understand. What else would people think?

Op why don't you devote your life to being an ascetic or renounce your bonds to our world and become a monk? You would find unity and brotherhood, you would learn discipline and emotional control. But you would also lead a more fulfilling life than most can hope for.
If that's too much burden or work you could still try looking into the philosophies that dominated the east like tao, and Buddhist practices. I don't like to be preachy but as someone with depression, bipolar, and anxiety disorder who almost committed suicide many times, the path to healing was through spirituality.
