I think all the negative from the idiot box and social media is enough to make anyone depressed or anxious when one add their own life issues into the mix. I have not had TV since 19. Never had any SM except for GAG and Linkedin. I'm quite happy, somewhat accomplished, and always exploring into something new... The girls do not freak out either. And frankly, if they do then wouldn't work out anyway...

Depression is simply a result of the veil being lifted and we see life for what it really is and also the person we really are the cure is selflessness and gratitude it’s why I always tell people that their lives aren’t just about them or their own happiness life is about people

I think some people are predisposed to handling stressful situations better than others.

[Blackcosmo]

I'm not sure. I don't think it's a default state though.

[OddBeMe]

Well you're young. You’ll get there.

[Blackcosmo]

I've been depressed before. I don't think it's default

[OddBeMe]

Just kidding. Your age is actully primed. I recently read about the pressure high schoolers go through. And so many cutters…

[Blackcosmo]

Phew I thought you were being real. It happened in grade 6 but left

[OddBeMe]

You were a cutter?

[Blackcosmo]

Well if you mean self harm sometimes. Not severe though.

[OddBeMe]

Podcast had some girl who would stab herself during class. Just lightly causing pain was addicting, she said. Why? Was it addicting to you?

[Blackcosmo]

Oh that's awful! I would only cause pain to myself when I was frustrated with my self. It relieved some stress but I don't think I liked doing it. It was more like a punishment to myself for just being useless.

[Daviddd5412]

Well it's definitely the default state for depressed people.

[OddBeMe]

Hey go fck-

Yeah you're right…

I have suffered from depression and it is a big difference than not being depressed I found it more a state of helplessness.

[petitedollbabee]

In todays world, yeah. Hard not to be depressed with how shit the world is becoming.

[TroyDT]

A default state for whom? I almost never get depressed and when I do it lasts like ten minutes.

[msc545]

It is not a "default" state at all but it is very common which may make it seem like that.

[Juxtapose]

It is not a default but quite easy for people to fall into.

[Fuentes]

No i do suffer from depression. That's not manly to me.

[Fuentes]

NO I DO NOT*
