Mental Illness/Depression

Let's talk about our coping mechanisms and how we can get others on healthier forms of vices

I appreciate this thread being made. I believe to have anxiety issues, though no mental health professional has evaluated me. Large crowds make me feel uncomfortable. When I go to the gym (blast fitness in Maryvale), I do cardio in the corner elliptical by the wall. I'm unsure of the origins of these fears, but I would love to have had a plan in place to combat it, if the copays weren't egregious. My señora supports me, even if I bring office stresses home. My anxiety had spiked because of my son, my dad's death, and what happened to my dog Dante.

Coping mechanisms? Posting a lot sometimes, looking at food pics on Instagram, eating pizza and Takis, singing the Peruvian national anthem.

ok....the food threads make sense now.

but, i have that same type of fear. but its only when im with my wife. i always make sure to scan my surroundings to make sure i can get her to safety because i know i can take care of myself or handle whatever.

one of the times i panicked was when we was in amsterdam during that stampede or whatever you want to call it.....when it started...its crazy because with all those people i only saw her. once she was cool...nothing else really mattered.
 
Therapy is a godsend.

Just find you a good one. IME, schooling matters. The PhD and the Masters are in different leagues
 
Working out helps a lot...my friend has just started therapy and has not been on drugs for weeks now...that shit must work because he was the biggest druggie I knew.




I was depressed when I was 18-19 because I moved house and lost touch with friends so being lonely triggered it.




Then you have the people who pretend to be depressed...fuck them people.
