Sorry to hear that. Getting socialized and having interactions with people help a great deal.

I got really depressed about five years ago. Therapy helped me a lot.

There are some questions here that help me. The ones where people have girlfriends or are hapily dating can cause the reader to be more depressed if they are lonely. I live by myself and haven't had friends in almost a year now, and I go days without talking to anyone, so reading about other people going out and doing things can make me more depressed.

Try sticking to the posts about movies, books, and music, and mental health because some of these people like to brag about their 'Happy romances' or their 'Great sex' lives, which I don't believe any of it. I'm a writer, so I like to read posts from other writers.

I don't know if you do any writing but it's a great way to help with that depression. When I'm feeling really sad, I work on my book series and give my characters the sad emotions, and put them through it all. (If they were real people, they would hate me for sure!)

I swear, writing helps tremendously! If you don't write, start writing. It will help. Another thing you can do is find friends to talk to if you have any. I don't have any friends, so I'm alone with my thoughts, which I overthink, overthink, overthink.

If you don't find a way to vent, your depression could end up much worse. A couple of years ago my anxiety got so bad, I ended up hospitalized 3 times in 2 months. If I didn't have my writing, I would be there now for sure. Just be careful though, don't let the depression take control because it's hard to come back from. I regret pushing everyone away and not opening up because now I'm all alone. But yeah, take my advice, keep i touch with friends, open up, if they are good friends, they will listen, if you don't have any friends, try writing and get those feelings on paper, like a journal, or you can write a story or a book and give your characters those feelings. Find a way to vent. That's the only thing that will really help.

I’m currently in therapy for anger management, anxiety and depression. My depressive episodes are usually triggered by arguments or stress. GaG does not help me, in fact, it does the opposite. I haven’t had an episode in two months, but when I do, log off of GaG and shut everyone out. I just sleep, drown myself in studies and workout and that helps momentarily.

gag does the opposite to me, i know im out of place here, lots of lust, hatred, jealousy and ihnorance on here, there's literally been suicidal people trying to find an escape here and I've seen people push them to kill themselves, this place is not good for depression, take a walk in the block i can guarantee you'll feel better, just you and your child take a stroll and get some fresh air.

I was unemployed during Covid and felt like I was under house arrest. I had major surgery to look forward to. I was really sad and I found this place by accident. I managed to make a couple of friends that really helped through that difficult time.

I get depressed every now and then. most of the time i can pull myself out of it after a while. Sometimes someone else has to help. G@G has never helped. But if it works for you thats all that matters.

Anonymous · Answer

No not at all. Quite the contrary. I find this site pretty depressive and toxic, as there are a lot of mean, rude, sexists and shallow people on here. So spending a lot of time here tends to give me negative thoughts

Sharkstealth · Answer

I just need people to talk to so yes it helps.
