I feel bad for you, you are always depressed. Cheer up. Always look on the brighter side of life. Jesus got nailed to a cross, and he didn't complain. Just kidding.

But seriously, talk to a doctor about it. Not even a psychiatrist, a regular doctor is fine and knows enough about depression and mood disorders to get you started on medication that might help, a lot. Depression runs in my family, and I can't tell you how much it can help.

If you just always feel tired and unmotivated, maybe a little shy socially, then a little medication and excercise might fix you up. Hell you don't necessarily have to be on the stuff forever, many times you can like, pop out of your depressive rut and go off the medication.

If you actually feel lonely and like, totally unable to connect with people, you might need a little more help. Having a counselor or a psychiatrist to talk to helps a lot of people. Even if it doesn't seem like you'd want to talk about it now, if your doctor perscribed medication, after a few weeks, you'll probably feel like talking about it. I've felt a lot more social and open and less afraid about dumb stuff since I've been on Zoloft.

But really, just go see your regular doctor. He'll really know what to do, much more than I. What I do know helps though, which you can start immediately, is exercise. Even if it's just a short walk to start, like to work or to a place to eat. Excercise helps keep up serotonin levels in your brain, so even a little can help make you feel better.

I type up a nice long, sincere post on how you might get some serious help, and all you can do is insult me. Thanks.

Yeah, nice edit there buddy. Maybe if you took a few minutes to actually learn something about depression, you might end up turning your life around. But no, you have to be an ignorant *** and throw it back in my face.

He's always in a bad mood. There's a reason I made the post that I did, something called helping. Someone asks for help, you give them help.

Employees dying on the job are faling to fall down. THIS PRACTICE MUST STOP as it becmes impossible to distinguish between death and the natural movement of he staf.

Any employee found dead in an upright position will be dropped from the payroll.

Emon: That may be...but right now he seems really down, so just let him be, he'll cheer up a bit tommorow. I agree what he did was rude but, people have off days. And GBK, if you are having a lot of off days, more then you should, go to a doctor, get medicine for depression. Nothing to be ashamed about. A person gets sick they get meds. Same thing here. I take pills every morning, i think nothing off it. I figure if they help me live a more normal life, why care?

I just got over a major depression spell... it wasn't fun but basically I focused on one thing to make me happy and it pulled me out of it.

I do need to get more exercise, though. More than the finger-pushups to do daily, I mean...

[You have gained 3 Dark Side Points]

Well fine. Sorry I lashed back at you GBK.

But my point though SAJN, is that some people don't cheer up the next day. Or the day after that, or ever. The only reason I suggested what I did was because I know GBK makes posts like this a lot. Okay, maybe it's just the way he says it, afterall I don't know him in person. But I do notice how GBK gets like, hardly any serious editing work done. A level or two once in a while, never did that big ambitious SP project. I know he works now, but if I recall, he used to have a lot of free time. Used to be the same way with me. You'd see me showcase something and then oup, it's gone. I just could never get off my *** because I had no motivation, no matter how badly I wanted to do it.

Sure I don't know much about GBK, but I'm just trying to be helpful based on what I can see. A little medication doesn't hurt, you aren't getting doped up like a lot of people think. People think it just makes you happy all the time. Hah, what a load of crap. I can think of plenty of times I've been in terrible moods since I've been on this stuff. All it does is help raise levels of neurotransmitters. After being on Zoloft, I noticed myself being less lazy, more social, less iritable (I used to get SO angry over the dumbest stuff, even if I knew it was stupid, I would anyway).

Ah I dunno. Just saying you should talk to your doctor. Maybe medication wouldn't help you at all, I have no idea. But that's why we have doctors instead of other guys over the internet.

Edit: Shrink? Nah man, just a regular doctor is fine for most people. You walk in, you say you feel like crap, he'll be like hey, here's a perscription. Exactly how it was for me. You don't even have to talk about any personal details if you don't want, just about how you feel in general. All I meant about a psychiatrist is that you might want to eventually. Some people find it helpful, I didn't really need it, you may not either.

GBK: Make a lovelife, heres how:

Go to a bar, talk to chicks like you know how you can learn.

It doesn't matter if they turn you down, its not like you'll see em again.

Keep going till you score, eventually you'll get better.

Pulling women at first seems like building the wooden horse of troy.... eventually its like buying peas.

But seriously, love lives aren't anything. You'll get some one day. I think you'd feel a lot better if you'd build some confidence by gettign a 6 pack or something similar.

Okay man... this is gonna sound harsh. But two years ago I was in the same situation no girls liked me and I felt awful. One of my friends told me this and it hurt... but belive me if this motivates you... I've done good today.


The only person that can change your love life is you. So you have two choices...

1) GET UP! Get off the computer for just a bit. Clean yourself up, cause I know it sucks but image counts. Get some contacts, go to a gym, get some weights, do some sit ups. Work hard on your physical self... just remember keep being the guy you are cause your a great guy its just girls don't notice you yet. Your love life will slowly pic up.

2) Be depressed... feel bad. I'll show you sympathy cause I know how it feels... but someone you might fall in love with might just walk by you if you don't have your head up to see her.

Its always your choice and I'm sorry if this offended you but my friend you have to change yourself... before you can change what other people do.

Mech, it's not so much getting in shape that matters, it is the feeling and confidence that getting in shape gives you that is important.

Love is not the answer to depression. Getting into an emotional entanglement when you're so depressed is just going to be worse in the end.

The sooner you realize I'm right the better off you will be.

the first rule is to lower your standards for chicks, and as you hook up wit chicks, start raising the standards...

Some kats I know always try to pursue the finest chicks but never get anywhere cuz the fine chicks are usually taken.

My Life.

I'm 17, I've been hugged twice by girls when they were too excited about something other than myself to think. Never been kissed. I talk to very few girls at all even if I get along well with the ones I do talk to. I've never had a girlfriend. Still feel bad? I don't honestly care, because I know girls my age are usually umm..well..not as mature yet. The right one won't run off.

Took me to 18 to get a hug and a kiss... sometimes it just takes time.

Very true. In fact, after the acquirement of a girlfriend, even worse problems arise. Sometimes it's just best to stay single.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you are one of the hundreds of parachuting enthusiasts who bought out "Easy Sky Diving" book, please make the following correction: on page 8, line 7, the words "state zip code" should have read "pull rip cord."

Kieran is absolutely right.

Confidence in yourself is everything. Confidence IS YOUR LIFE. Its more important than your blood. It's what keeps you going and gives you the ability to live a full life and claim what you deserve instead of having scraps of success thrown your way. It's your meal ticket to eat at the table of kings, my friend.

Once you have confidence, your life will change drastically. Pursuing women will no longer be of any concern to you-- they will actively seek you out b/c confidence will set you apart. Depression will flee from you and will never be able to touch you again. To grasp what I (and probably Kieran) feel, you must experience it for yourself.

Once you have confidence, it will forever be a part of you. I know this to be true because no matter what happens to me short of death, my confidence can never be taken away. I run on confidence. I can feel it everywhere I go, like a fire burning in my chest. It is a part of me. It has given me many rewards.

For me to instill confidence in you would be the greatest gift that I could ever give to you. The way you generate confidence is to stop listening to your self-doubt and instead believe that you have what it takes to be successful with women. The beauty of this is that as you think, so you will become. If you program yourself to have a confident mindset, it will inevitably become a part of you. Once this starts hapening, the process will sustain itself. Confidence generates additional confidence. Once you see your own success, you will become more and more confident each day.

That's not always true. I never lower my standards b/c I am interested in quality first and formost. Let others take the rest, I am only interested in the best!

If i see a chick that I want, no matter how beautiful, I never hesitate to approach, b/c if I fail to make my approach in spite of what I really want, I would end up sabotaging my own game.

Well, in my experience, aiming high leads to girls that are materialistic airheads who will play with you and waste your time playing hard to get.
