Think of happy thoughts.

Some musical therapy

Go outside for once and stop talking about your sad life on the internet. You've moulded yourself into a child by staying inside all day and doing nothing else than shitposting and trying to maintain your internet personality .

wtf is maintaining a internet personality lol

that sounds mEgA cRiNgE

p sure if this is just an internet personality than going outside would be pointless cause im not actually sad and am just trying to annoy people on a forum for a semi-dead game

You're making yourself think that

are you saying i've shitposted so hard unironically that i've convinced myself i'm shitposting ironically?

"Ironic shitposting is still shitposting"
-Christopher "m00t" Poole

how is a elliott shitpost getting serious responses

my theory is that every shitposter is a lonely, depressed, attention-seeking nerd or they would spend their time doing literally anything else

depression has varying levels, its not a no, i am happy, or yes, i think about hanging myself every day

try taking a test https://www.psycom.net/depression-test/

Here

u cant say that to 9v9enthusiast

dude spreads happiness everywhere

bake a pie in a big oven

depressed people can still spread happiness

im pretty sure its a requirement to do stand-up comedy

Your Score: Minimal Depression

im really curious how u think people who enjoy making dumb posts are inherently unhappy

I've never met a shitposter with a good, rounded lifestyle and a happy outlook

nice to meet you, what do u want to know

Use MGE to deaden the pain

So I actually have severe clinical depression and thus know a little bit about being sad.

Set a goal for yourself and work towards it. It can be literally anything like "read a book for one hour a day" or something else equally easy to achieve, but being able to look back and see that you've accomplished what you set out for yourself makes you feel like your life actually has meaning, and that you have control over it, which in turn makes you feel more happy (which you can then use towards doing things you like a bit less in your life). Start small and work your way up to something bigger. Like I said it could be something as simple as, IDK, "listen to music I like and go for a 30-minute walk every day".

The important thing here is that no matter how easy the goal is, if you do suffer from the sad you will immediately begin to find reasons not to accomplish your goals. A lot of people will then proceed to beat themselves up mentally for being bad and not meeting their goals, but this is also wrong, because all you're doing is satisfying your need for continuing to be sad by making yourself feel like shit (not because you make yourself depressed or whatever, but because this is now your normal/habitual state and going outside of it is new/uncomfortable). So when you don't accomplish your goal, you just need to own it, be like "yeah, I didn't do this today and that's ok", figure out what really stopped you from doing it, and then pay attention and don't let the same thing (hint: it's usually yourself) stop you the day after.

Well you seem to enjoy making dumb posts and u also stated ur sad so...

that looks like a chili from a can sir

this is a thread about being HAPPY how are you going to make SAD posts like this

because cooking helps me cope with depression then this guy can just spill something out of a can and feel good about himself without DESERVINg!

I don't recommend visiting an online website for any real diagnosis of mental illnesses or issues, because people can develop mindsets or mentalities that can be exaggerated and/or not accurate at all.

6 months ago I went to a therapist and told her about my life and how I felt, about a lot of individual issues while answering her questions and after the hour she told me I have minor depression and recommended trying to be heavily involved in a routine(i.e. getting a job or being in class), exercising, eating a healthier diet, etc. The visit was free, and I felt comfortable that a certified therapist went ahead and let me just express locked up feelings and give me input, and thanks to her I'm comfortable saying I'm in a much better place now than before.

tldr; dont trust tests on the internet, because every individual is unique and you can be exaggerating or not recognizing your situation based on a test online, even if it's backed by multiple psych companies

also im pretty sure Elliott made this thread with post-post ironic intent with a dash of realness

i agree, but these tests can provide benchmarks that encourage people who experience symptoms of depression to schedule an appointment with a therapist

also im pretty sure elliot made this thread with faux post-post irony to cover up that he's a a lonely, depressed, attention-seeking nerd, because if he wasn't, he would be doing something besides shitposting
