Anxiety is based on an underlying fear. This can be things like social phobias or lack of fulfillment.The goal of psychotherapy exposes that fear and we help you retrain your thought patterns. Medications like SSRIs facilitate this by increasing neuroplasticity so your brain can activate new pathways rather than going down the ones that lead to parts of the brain such as the limbic system that cause your anxiety.

>Delete social media

op has a point, he's a sociopath but he has a point.
Here is the issue op, most people who are diagnosed as "having depression" or "having anxiety" don't have any kind of treatable condition, they just have shit lives. Shit lives dealt to them due to no fault of their own, which can't be improved regardless of how much effort they are willing to put in. Meds don't fix a shit life, and neither does therapy. You are aware of this, and people in your field are too, yet you willfully ignore this reality because it devalues your profession, and devalues you.

a person enjoys a happy childhood

then is tortured to death over a 1 year period

I suppose you could say its possible for them to enjoy the torture, and therefore not objectively un enjoyable, but wouldn't that be counter productive to the discussion since any sane person would agree that would be inconsistent with anything ever observed?

You go through an adjustment and then adapt to your current situation. This baby got knocked down from orange to red. Instead of finding happiness in family and love, it adjusts to find happiness in essentials such as food and water.

The child would be "sad" for about 6 months but then adjusts to it's new situation. The times during the day when he is not tortured or receives a meal become moments of bliss in a comparable level as a mother showing the child affection

Bullshit the withdrawal is extremely unpleasant. It's not too bad if you taper down but it's terrible if you just stop or run out of them. Not as bad as withdrawing from a benzo or heroin but worse than cigarettes or marijuana imo

Hi anon I need your help
>Suicide
I've wanted to kms since I was around 14 and to end it on my 18th birthday because I never thought there was anything to look forward too, and I wouldn't amount to anything.
>Life
Since I hit 18 I never had the courage to suicide, I dropped out of collge had no motivation. Been playing brain dead games for 7 years and haven't had a regular sleep schedule since I was in high school. I want to change but I feel my memory and brain its all fucked because of that. Anyways you really spoke to me when you said cutting off toxic relationships I recently did that and feel its helping. Also the chart looks promising thank you.

>Change
I want to find motivation, find the focus to read things for once and also go back to school, and do something with my life. I'm working on getting a normal sleep schedule I have no problems sleeping just I never felt like sleeping, because my life felt like nothing.

Was thinking of getting on modanifil, and finding a coffee that doesnt upset my stomach and MCT OIL. Is this a good idea? I just want to do something now with my life but feel my brain is fried and i need meds to do it.

Yeah it's pretty bad. Sometimes drives me to the brink of insanity, really. Especially when you get that one song where the 2 seconds of it gets stuck in your head for a day.

I read somewhere that it could be a sign of a PTSD event. I had waves of anger I couldn't control and suddenly one day this happened.

I'm trying everything I can because I know I have a mental illness. I also know it's curable if I try to win the battle

you know this is bullshit

It's really easy to get lost in early adulthood. Figure out what kind of life you want in 10 -20 years. Dream big and play on your strengths: Family with stable job, single and career oriented and wealthy, world traveler, large social circle

Make a list of what you need to do to attain these goals.

Start crossing off the list

I really don't think pills stimulants will give you motivation. They just make you feel good and allow you to complete unpleasent boring tasks.

I had a feeling it was bullshit, but I've read so many things about not sleeping properly every night and thought since I haven't had a regular sleep schedule in 7 years it had an effect on me. Well thank you for clearing that up.

Yes I am lost, okay i'll try the only thing that ever interested me was Psychology, I wanted to major in it but everyone around me just shut me up about it, and I abandoned it. I'm going to pursue it, and figure out what else I want in my life.

Okay i'll just use the pills to read and get things done because I've been having trouble doing that since my brains just been on games and media all these years.

Do you think therapy simply is not effective for certain individuals due to their personalities and how they think?
And how often do you see or hear about the doctor/patient boundary being breached romantically into a relationship?
I did EFT sessions last year and I was crushing on my doc near by the end. Maybe it was just transference but I still find myself fantasizing with the idea.

Because antidepressants don't change your behavior, habits, and outlook on life that is making you depressed in the first place.

With a hard few days/weeks of changing your routine/habits/goals/environment, you can make a significant impact on your depression. Although, that's too much effort for most people, so they fall for the pharma jew.

I was a depressed fag khv until I was 26 yo, but then after some hard reflection, giving up a lot of vices, and focusing on nutrition, gym, skincare, social skills, etc.. I finally got a laid, got a girlfriend at 27 years old and am still with her (31 now). I also became a partner in the family business, and we have had some incredible past few years.

Depression is merely a symptom of your lifestyle. This is why normies don't understand depression because they don't know how it is to be isolated for years from others. I literally had no friends from age 18 to 24 (university).

I've been heavily depressed and used SSRIs and antipsychotics. They're literally poison. Just do what I say and you'll be alright, faggot.

Order some GHB/GBL/BD off the internet and dose properly. Then order an LSD-25 analogue (1P-LSD, ALD-52, ETH-LAD, AL-LAD) or a tryptamine like 4-AcO-DMT or 4-HO-MET. Use GHB or one of its prodrugs to experience appreciation for life, trip on one of the psychedelics once you feel up to it. Get closer to nature. I'll provide more info if you need.

Haven't looked through the whole thread to see if you're larping or not. But I'm lowkey jelly of psychiatrists--at least mine. I was on vyvanse from highschool through college. Whenever I had to go to the psychiatrist to get a prescription filled I literally just walked into his office and spent 5 minutes making small talk him, handed him a check for $150, then walked out with another 3 months of vyvanse.

He says he sees about 8-10 "patients" everyday, they are only kids with ADHD/ADD looking for an easy prescription, he talks to them for 5 minutes, and only accepts cash. Could you name a comfier job than this?
