"Mad at the Internet" - a/k/a My Psychotherapy Sessions

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
If none exist then just man up, silently suffering in stoicism with dignity as best one can. Nobody seems to be able to do that at all anymore, probably another thing to blame the Internet for.
Because suffering for no reason is pointless and nihilistic.
All of the moralizing and pseudointellectual philosophical nonsense is just that - nonsense.
Here's what it comes down to: Do these help you in your day to day life, or not. It's a simple cost/benefit analysis.
If it helps, use them if not, don't.

Jersh is making an argument that medication makes people complacent: and while that has merit, there's no reason someone *needs* to be complacent while taking medication. Being a SSRI'd out zombie won't stop you from setting and accomplishing goals. People are complacent because they choose to be, simple as.

Anyways, all of this stuff really reminds me of things like Ted K's manifesto
and that argument the "you aren't fucked up... it's society that's fucked up" and I believe that really is a large cause of peoples distress.

You're not meant to eat goyslop and work in a cubicle while being constantly bombarded with "white man is .. le bad!" propaganda and so naturally that makes people miserable. And that's probably a large factor in the boom of SSRI's/psychiatry/therapy industry.

tldr: workout and eat healthy, stop drinking and watching porn all the time. if that doesn't help, then consider ssris. Or if you can't get the fuck out of bed to do those things, consider using ssris temporarily until you can and then see what happens once you have healthy habits. You can't figure out how to live healthy if you don't have a healthy foundation (exercise, eating well, touching grass) so figure it out once you can get to that baseline.

And stop fucking drinking alcohol. Added twice because it's important.

I was diagnosed with severe depression and I think therapy is bullshit, medication is bullshit. People need to set some fucking goals for themselves and start pursuing the things they want in life.

That's what I did, and I'm much happier now than I've been in the past few years.

Can't wait to listen to null shit on depressoids.

A bleu bleu Im so sad I need muh ssris. Its quite frankly fucking faggy.
 
Null, what you've said about depression is something I've been thinking for many years. Don't back down to self pitying dipshits.

There is another aspect to that I strongly suspect exists that you didn't mention, and that is how mental anguish has been glamorized in the past several decades. In pretty much all of the media equivalent of fast food pink slime, mental anguish and depression have been repeatedly affirmed as being noble and deserving of sympathy. People have bought into the idea what that are owed their depression, that it is right and good, and that anyone who would deny them it is literally Voldemort. In many cases of public misery, it almost seems masterabatory.
 
dude the people coping and sneeding that they're depressed and have no control over their lives or happiness are so fucking sad and pathetic. like literally arguing in comments that they're actually just adrift in life and have no responsibility or accountability to one's self. it's not my fautl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it's kemkalls!!!!!!!!!!! muh brain kemkalls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cope & sneed.
Someone as easily offended and prone to rages as you shouldn't be saying this.
 
I think that depression can be a symptom of a larger problem in your life, something that is physically wrong with your body, or a combination of the two. There are many different treatments / ways of approaching a mind that is not doing what it is supposed to be doing so it works better. The problem is, everybody's situation is different, a trauma victims is going to have a different treatment then a person who just lost their job and can't cope, and that industry is hit or miss. Some therapists can even make matters worse if they just bullshit their client to milk them for cash, or genuinely think a treatment is the right one for that client when it really isn't. Also, there are plenty of shit doctors and therapists that give the industry a bad name, and finding the right one can be difficult for patients. I don't want to bore people with the details, but SSRI are meant to break patients out of that mind frame when all else fails, and are only meant to be temporary due to safety concerns. In my opinion, Drugs ALWAYS make things worse (except for specific cases) due to the damaging effects they have, and corruption has led to over prescription and dangerous long-term use of SSRI drugs, making it a mainstream problem that isn't getting better soon.

That said, nothing will change if you don't put in the effort to make it change. Usually just having enough sleep, eating right so you get nutrients, getting vitamin D (touch grass), solves most things and if that doesn't work, finding the right professional help is probably needed. Working through your problems with the right professional instead of complaining to random people on the internet is the way to go. Sure, complaining indicates that there is an issue, and we all vent sometimes, but its really not helping the depressed person because what is some random dudes on the internet going to do for that complainer? Onlookers and online dudes can't snap their fingers and make things better, nobody has that power. Its up to that depressed person to do something, even if its small, and continue moving forward till they get to a place that they are comfortable with. Unfortunately then need to be at a place to accept help, and some people sadly do not get help, and let things fester

At the end of the day the body is like a machine, it needs to be maintained and fed with good ingredients to work correctly, and you fill it with bad input (drugs, overindulgence, porn, junk food, low exercise), then the output will be affected. If you can't fix it yourself, you get a professional who will teach you how to fix it. Some machines are more broken than others, and require different specialists for specific part repair. Remember to take care of yourself bros
 
Here's a good Foamy video that I think resonates with @Null's depression statement.


I'll admit, I took a page from this when typing my earlier post because it really stuck with me when I first saw it.

I agree that depression is more or less a choice, with the caveat that your environment plays a large role. Especially if you grew up in a really shit situation like certain kids, making the decision to not be depressed could be harder than otherwise.
SSRIs and similar drugs, however, are complete horseshit and the only possible benefit they could have is increasing neuroplasticity to temporarily make it easier to change your view, but even then that’s a longshot and the drawbacks are many many many times worse.
So eat well, exercise, get the fuck out of bad situations when possible and stop being a fag.
 
I'm going to take such a massive dump on the depressoids on Friday
Is this your new obstinate obsession like how you bitched about cheese for half a year? You said you were 100% correct on xitter then immediately backpedaled when the prominence of millennials and zoomers being drugged to the gills on SSRIs since childhood was brought up.

Very Divisive Post
I especially appreciate the people who dismiss it by saying it's alpha male shit because that's in vogue right now, except for the fact that Oprah was literally saying the same shit 10 years ago. The fat negress libtard, diametric opposite of an alpha male tradlarper.

I just want a keyboard. The less sophisticated the better.

I think the main thing is that I pull my keyboard all over the place and often lose the rubber feet. I'd like something that sticks firm but can be dragged as needed
In regards feet... I would recommend getting whatever keyboard you want, as long as it has back feet that suit how you want to orientate it, and if it isn't sticky enough on your desk buy more feet and stick them on wherever suits (keeping a few spare to glue on whenever the original pads in front come off).

I second the recommendations from people to get a Keychron if you want to try a good reasonably priced mechanical keyboard. I have a couple, they're good. There are lots of cheapish Chinese boards that aren't terrible, I have a cheesy AJazz 100% which works just fine.

If you aren't actually interested in mechanical keyboards then the Lenovo rubber dome keyboards (the Preferred Pro etc) are better than the nasty Dell stuff.

I have also had a Unicomp board as recommended by someone else in the thread. A lot of people have QC issues with them from the factory. I did too. That's less of a problem if you're in the US and can more easily ship an 8 pound keyboard back for repair. They are fun but ridiculously loud by today's standards.

IF you are convinced by keyboard autists to build a keyboard kit, then there is only one correct choice- the HYPER 7. This should alleviate your concerns about the keyboard not staying in place.

Null showcasing the Isabella woman amused me because it’s kind of funny to watch the tradthot evolve in this way. It used to be a term of disparagement for women who wanted to be trad but… didn’t think that entailed being verbally abused by random men (you know, like a feminist and thus like a thot?) so now we have this.

It’s amusing that a woman who actually does offer nothing but her hole like her (it’s the source of her “credibility” on this) is accepted. But really for all the talk about only men being useful and productive these guys have no skills besides opining on “relationships” themselves.
