Cara just ignore them.

How's everyone holding up? I'm eating and sleeping better and feeling better for it. Just gotta get back into a fitness routine and I'll be back on top :)


Fitness routine, or any kind of routine, really helps to have something to look forward to and kill stagnant time. I find my depression creeps in when I have nothing planned or scheduled. It can be something as simple as planning to do the dishes every morning at 9am and workout for 30 minutes at 10am. 

I’m doing way better today than I was a few days ago. I bought and assembled a new desk and chair for my home office and finally moved all my gear off of the dining room table. That improved my mental health and stress levels in crazy ways.

My wife and I went to my office in LA and picked up some prime lenses, lights and a few other camera/live streaming accessories. Going to shoot naughty and professional portrait photos of each other in the next day or two.

My mother is a minister and I’ve been live-streaming her sermons for about 6 weeks now. I’ve never been very religious but having that scheduled on my weekends feels nice.

I’ve been drinking 1-2 beers a week since this kicked off and that’s drastically helped me feel more physically/mentally stable. Haven’t been on any other medications or anything for years now.

I could rant for a few more short paragraphs but I won’t. Keep your heads up everyone and stay sane! Also, don’t forget to hit that ignore button for the 50 Tracer accounts and every other furry fuck on here. Too-da-loo!

I'm having a really rough time. Worried I might have some brain issue ( a physical one, not just mental issues). I keep having headaches and I keep falling into this nervous state over it. I'm going going try to sober up this coming week. Dreading that but I'm hoping it helps with my anxiety and mental health long term, as well as physical honestly. just kind of wallowing in my own neurosis. It's been a rough couple days. Hopefully everyone is doing better than I am at least. Glad you'be improved grind king rims.

Cara, I don't mean this as a dig, but maybe you really should think about getting offline a bit more. Maybe keeping a diary as an outlet and a bit more introspection would be good. You also have to ask yourself, "how do I see my situation getting better?" And start taking baby steps. If they don't work, they don't work, but you gotta try something right? Even just a scheduled walk every day is enough to get back to a functioning level.

Drewsmahgoos, you'll thank yourself in a couple of weeks if you dry out for a bit. But if you stop drinking, I always recommend replacing it with something, both physically and mentally. Make yourself some nice juice or sparkling water with lime or whatever. Sometimes the ritual of getting something to drink is half the attachment. Same goes for smoking weed, at least in my experience... But also if your body is used to regularly scheduled alcohol, you'll get sugar cravings, so some juice is good. And staying hydrated will help those headaches. If you really think there's an issue with your head, you should schedule a check up. It's a hassle, but better safe than sorry, and there's no point worrying if you can't do something.

Big up Cuban_Lynx. Wish I could find the clip of Jamal Smith saying that monologue to Ryan Decenzo while in Madrid, hahaha.

Fakie Nollie, I'm glad to hear you're doing better! I really feel you on needing a schedule. I need to keep active or I start to get manic in the downtime. I never understand when people say that doing nothing is relaxing.

Speaking of schedules, time for me to go do some pushups.

Stay positive, guys. Take a walk, watch comedy, stay hydrated, go to sleep before 11 pm, free Max B.

Squandering any one of the resources here is criminal. Everyone clogging this thread to troll needs professional help (even though it's likely just one attention starved poster with multiple accounts).

Go to UWTB to be an idiot. Stay out of here unless you are going to contribute or you are legitimately looking for resources for your mental health issues.

Hey guys. My therapist gave me links to this specialists youtube for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and psychoplasmics. This one is about insomnia which I know a lot of you suffer from. (She advertises a sleep mask until about 2:00). If you find this video helpful she's got several more that've certainly helped me. Thanks

Serious question, what kind of effect should I expect from going to a therapist?

I've been going to work through my divorce and my ex wife's super self destructive behaviors (that drove me insane). I don't necessarily feel much better/worse after each session.

And the ex was always in a terrible mood for days after seeing her therapist.

What is the ideal outcome of visiting a therapist? What is supposed to happen here? How do I know if my therapist is any good?

Therapists seem like a giant scam in my opinion, it seems like their basic goal is to get you to continue paying for sessions.

If you managed to get married you probably had your shit together somewhat so you are probably mostly dealing with mental stress from your divorce.

If your ex-wife was being self destructive during your marriage she likely had existing issues before hand so some counseling might help her in the long run. If you are blaming yourself after the fact for her pre-existing behavior that sounds counter-productive.

If the marriage is truly 100% unsalvageable you need to move on and find a new partner ASAP, no point wasting perfectly good fuckin' years being bent out of shape over some ex who probably didn't deserve you anyway.

Xanax is for losers.

I like how the cat with a Crowley avatar claims to be bi-polar.

They used to call that schizophrenia. We live in disgusting times. Scientology is a lot more popular than people care to admit.

Anyway, Choronzon is a motherfucker. Not that any of you will get that. We should euthanize the mentally ill.

you’re a piece of work.lol
This has me cracking up, what exactly does Black Flag have to do with measuring your dick starting behind ya nuts?

Skateboarding is nothing but a game to find the right fits to appear like you're a proportional human being instead of a midget or a giant.

And the ex was always in a terrible mood for days after seeing her therapist.

What is the ideal outcome of visiting a therapist? What is supposed to happen here? How do I know if my therapist is any good?

Personally, I look for people who I can be myself with. I’d like to believe I actually became friends with my first therapist. We were around the same age, early to mid 20s, and we’d always say stuff like “oh we should go to that place!” during sessions and then be like “oh wait you’re my patient/therapist.” We laughed, we (read: I) cried, we shot the shit. I was always excited to see her. Turns out we lived across the street from each other lol.

I say that because, it made everything feel more genuine, more honest, which helps with release of tension when said out loud. I felt it from how I expressed my feelings to how she reacted and replied to them.

At the same time, she also made me feel powerful. She gave me tools (i.e. homework) on CBT and other exercises, to make my own mind work on itself, to make me believe that I wouldn’t be seeing her forever. That I was going to be released into the wild on my own but that I was gonna be fine with what we were learning together (I was about to move 5000+ km away, by myself).

I guess after leaving her office, I felt more confidence in myself. I dreaded the “homework” but I knew it was for my own good, and the feeling of checking boxes after they were done was awesome. I was actively working towards my own happiness, it felt great. You’ll never read this, but thank you, Rhea.

Hopefully my experience (and wall of text) is helpful in some way. I say this all the time in this thread, but I’ll say it again: shopping for therapists is absolutely okay. Find your match.

Wishing you the best.

I can’t skateboard because of my injured foot and it hurts to the point where I can’t really stay standing up. I’m smoking a ton of weed and my tolerance is really high now. I’m at a bit of a loss. Never skateboarding again would kill me but I can’t even just do normal stuff.

This is gonna be horrible advice but tobacco helps me more than weed I feel in regards to being at peace mentally. If you don't play video games you should really consider trying them. There are so many games available these days a few are bound to hit home with you.

People considering suicide please hold on and reach out for help from somebody, anybody. It can crush the spirit of loved ones and family. My brother killed himself. The shit is awful. I’ll be haunted for the rest of my life about what I could have done. I’m heavily medicated. Zoloft, lorazepam, gabbapentin. I’m also on oxycodone for avascular necrosis and have a colostomy bag because I ruptured my intestines. I’m holding on to life for my mom and to see what happens. Such a short time to be here such a long time to be gone.

nigga i reached out to my closest friends and family and none of them said shit, they try to flip it on you. Only reason I don't kill myself is to protect people I know from becoming weak like you all pilled up wishing about what they could have done. You probably only give a shit about mental health when it directly relates to you. A semi anonymous post a generic ass skateboard message board helps nobody.

I've been pretty bummed off and on lately. Probably in part to quitting smoking weed for the 30th time or however many. I've posted on here a few times about how weed always ruins me. 12 days not smoking though and I just realized my work stress will be over in 3 hours and then I can play games and bone all weekend so I got that to look forward to.

This is probably why you don't get help from people. You ask for it and then act like a total shit thinking people will just put up with it because of your problems.

reaching out isn't asking for help person it's letting people know how you actually feel. I let people know how I actually felt and they didn't have any advice for me cuz there is no advice to give to someone who wants to kill themself for the right reason.

Reaching out is asking for help. You want someone to listen which would help you cope. If the people you surround yourself with can't help you go to a therapist or psych. It's not rocket surgery.

No I told them straight up look I'm completely fucking insane and not going to recover. I don't want to harm anybody but this society you are more or less forced to cause harm to others to better your own situation. That's a society I want no part of. I told them if you want to help me you are too late help people that are still pliable and have some motivation to succeed in life.
