My life has improved by taking courses on edx and coursera. I like keeping my mind active…you don’t use it, you lose it.

I like their hard classes.

my life is listening to the baseball game on the radio every night. pretty lame. I was going to go back to work but I’m not comfortable with the hiring process, I’m thinking I may go to school and finish a degree instead. that’s about it. I don’t have many friends anymore, haven’t had a girlfriend in years. I do have some hobbies that keep my mind occupied, which helps.

No boyfriend, no job or studies for me. Just one friend left and I cant even sit with her on a coffee calmly outside cause too paranoid… Isolated for the most of the part since 17 years, but I try to have more hope than before. Maybe you should do it too :slight_smile: . But me too I am very worried about my future. If my mother dies, ill have no one to talk in the days… I guess, then, ill regress on everything cause if you cant even speak to somebody in the day, then I guess you become an animal…

Not much of one right now. I hope to find the right meds soon so I can function in society and work. I want to be ready to start my new undergrad degree on the right foot. I hate being idle, honestly.

I have no life. I want to get more money so I can do more things.

Exercising is good for depression, being in fresh air in nature . Nature heals

My life is basically browsing forums, watching videos, and hanging out with my parents. I want to be productive, but the pressure and pain in my brain keeps going up when I try to apply myself. It’s getting better though, so there’s hope.

About depression, I find that if I don’t eat a Vitamin B-100 pill for a day or so, I start losing my optimism and getting seriously depressed.

Here’s a study that links low folate (Vitamin B9) and Vitamin B12 to depression, both of which a B-100 pill will supplement. Worth a try?

To simply put it, nope. I’m just happy to be alive. Just living one day at a time.

I didn’t have a life for a few months due to depression but I’m slowly regaining it :slight_smile: main thing that might mess me up in school and work is what feels like hypersomnia. I sleep nearly 12 hours. I was gonna try and do a sleep study to maybe get on a stimulant

Yes Been stable pretty much for years on the same pills so although I don’t work I live a realized life. I volunteer a couple of days a week which gets me out and about and I still play competitive cricket at 47 years of age. It’s a complex world these days but I still know people I met in high school who I catch up with regularly.

I know it’s hard but with little steps it’s good to get out there and back into life. It may not be what most folk do but that has never worried me. I don’t compare myself to others!
