>women will make you happy no>working out and being attractive and fit will make you happynu uh>getting a job in a field you enjoy will make you happytiresomeits literally just a chemical imbalance. a broken, damaged part of my brain that refuses to produce simple joy and happy signals. if it worked correctly, i could just play video games all day and not give a shit. Ive done the work. showered. job. worked out. none of it makes me happy.
>>85842034Correcto-mundo. You will either be that way forever, or get on the SSRI "crazymeds train" and deal with all of the side-effects that the brain-monkeys won't tell you about.
>>85842046I keep hearing this yammering on about SSRI's while theyre big brother anti-psychotics just get ignored. talk about side effects. i couldnt shit for a month!
Just get ect and stop being a bitch
>>85842034those things were never intended to make you happy, it's always been a lie to turn you into a slave chasing happiness
>>85842034Despite how prolific knowledge of depression is normies still don't understand this. I don't think they ever will.
>>85842034If you type "I manifest that I am happy" 9 times a day, you'll be happy
>>85842034Idk man, I've been pretty happy since I got a gf
>>85842511Post a picture of her then
The chemical imbalance theory of depression, specifically the monoamine or serotonin hypothesis, has been extensively reviewed and found to lack scientific support
>>85842034I'm convinced that past a certain point in weight, trying to get fit actually does more harm than good to you. I can't get below 230lb without literally starving myself.I'm talking about less than 1500 calories a day, if that and even then I have to watch out for fats and oils.Oh yea and then weeks worth of progress can be destroyed because your body decided it wants to switch which nutrients and proteins it wants to absorb and now you have to play guessing games as to what's going to be stored as fat and what's just going to slide through your stomach. At some point I realized I was doing more research on dieting and working out than actually doing those things and just gave up.
>>85842034Eating potatoes will make you happy.Roasted potatoes, mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, french fried potatoes, scalloped potatoes.Mmm potatoes.

>>85842735You being too retarded to not be fat doesn't invalidate that being fit makes people feel better.
>>85842850Beck's Cognitive Model stays winning
>>85842034You're so close to figuring this out anon. So close to understanding how your own mind works. But you're stumbling at the finish line. Kills me to see it.
>>85842034>believes in the chemical imbalance meme>but also thinks video games do not cause brain damageImpressive honestly. This would be like if you said your wife cheated on you, and the problem is that the weather is too cold. If it was just a little warmer you would be happy to see your wife cheat on you huh
>>85844120no you wouldnt be happy to see your wife cheat on you but it would be easier to move on and it would cause less of an impact.
