depression tips

[ayannn]

ive never really been depressed before so i dont know what it feels like but now i think i am. I always had confidence issues so this probably stems from that from being a manlet my whole life but now im not crazy short anymore (5'8 at 16) but i still hate myself and am never proud. my life sucks and im not great at anything and im still pretty nt from my super manlet days. my confidence gets better but sometimes it gets a lot worse and i keep failing in everything i do. but at the same time i feel bad for thinking like this because i always see people that are worse off than me, like they arent nepo or theyre shorter than me or dumber than me (im pretty smart my only good trait) or anything and i feel very bad for them and then feel bad for hating myself because i actually dont even have it that bad. if anyone has any tips with dealing with constant failure and recently occuring (since 2026) depression please lmk i hate getting up in the morning.

John here, stop with the pity party that's just going to make you feel more shit.

Now, the fact that you are realizing that you are spiraling is very well and shows awareness, the following would be my advice:

1. Kill that stupid idiotic victim identity today.
-every single time that you catch yourself thinking that life sucks right now take action (so go deadlift *try to break your PR*, or force yourself to do something hard that you don't want to do/usually don't do) so that your brain gets adjusted to breaking that over-thinking loop.

2. Build proof you're not worthless.
-People don't talk to you or treat you like shit? Step on them and use them as a pedestal for your success, don't conform with mediocrity. In addition to that I would say stack small wins as self confidence isn't given but much rather earned towards a repeated proof that you yourself can overcome resistance.

3. Fix your fucking standards now.
-Stop measuring yourself against people who have it worse. Measure yourself against the man that you want to become at 18 nd 20, write down what you want, by the time you want it, and some methods of achieving those items. After you're done with that every single day that you wake up ask yourself "did I move closer towards that person I want to be today?" and if not, push yourself harder and harder until you make even the slightest of progress.

4. STOP romanticizing the pain.
-Feeling like shit doesn't make you deep or special. It much rather makes you look average. So, feel the pain and show up, that's it.

So, get up tomorrow, start your day with multiple completed tasks and study something useful for 1-2 hours, do this again the next day. Stack 30 days like that and then you should more than totally feel better.

The depression will fade whenever you stop feeding it with inaction and self-pity.

Ask for help; if you feel that you are not capable. You are not the center of the only one. Brutal honesty: if you let others value you, you will only be a doll. Do activities that really make you see the Different
