Depression

My thoughts are that no one really gives a shit if a man is experiencing depression or any other mental health issue. We are expected (for good or for worse) to pull ourselves together. Therefore I'd only suggest talking about it under limited circumstances with other like-minded men. That being said, seek professional help if you feel it necessary.

Sounds like bipolar disorder actually

I self medicated myself out of depression with psychedelics and ecstasy

I'm pretty sure I suffer from some type of depression/anxiety or mood disorder. Not sure what exactly but there's something there that makes me not as social or happy as the majority of people. I've had suicidal thoughts and feelings off and on every few months or so since I was a young child. I remember contemplating hanging myself when I was 11.

Sometimes the mood swings are so extreme that I'll feel like dying in the morning, then when night comes I feel like everything's gonna be okay. Sometimes I'll go a month in some delusion of grandeur state thinking I'm going to be the next genius hot shot in my field of study like it's a path God has set for me.

Both of my parents suffer from depression and anxiety. My father is bipolar and his mother was schizophrenic. My maternal grandfather was a depressed alcoholic and I had a cousin and an uncle commit suicide.

I've never been to a doctor or been diagnosed with anything. I had to go to a few therapy sessions through court when I was a teenager because I got in trouble with the police a few times. The therapist didn't really see anything wrong with me though, it was kind of nice having a conversation with the guy even though it was a complete waste of time.

I get bouts of really bad paranoia sometimes too. Especially with things I take seriously like school and work. Sometimes I think certain professors are out to screw me over or don't like me, other times I'll get the worst anxiety over some really trivial error at my weekend job like forgetting a customer's soda (pizza delivery).

I also have a really hard time socializing and meeting new people. I feel like I'm bothering people, even my close friends when I ask them to hangout. If I embarrass myself in front of a friend, I think that they lost all respect for me over that moment. Sometimes I even think some friends are out to get me or snubbing me without realizing that we all have pretty busy lives and sometimes I forget to call or text people back too.

I wonder if this is something normal all people deal with growing up or if I'm a less than common type of head case. Never so sure.

Been bogged down in a sort of bipolar-ish depressive mood disorder throughout my formative years. It has stunted my life dramatically and I'm deeply bitter about it. Especially after learning at the age of 26 after a third mental breakdown that mom tried to suffocate me as an infant in my crib w a pillow. Great mom, thanks. Depression is a bitch.

Then I began to think that people (my mother and friends) put drugs in my food and poisoned me. I started to think that there are some people trying to follow me. I believed people can hear my thoughts. I went full paranoia.

I went through something similiar 20 years ago.

The "real world" is actually what you were experiencing. The Blue Pill world is the dumbed down reality that others live in and it's based on limited perception.

Okay... so the doctor / shrink will probably give you drugs to dull your mind and that "crazy" stuff seems to go away, but you feel dull and depressed.

Ultimately the "Amused Mastery" perception will possess that "connected" feeling you had before, but you will understand the universe better and it will seem fine and even funny once you master it all. (it was your own fears projecting outward than bent reality that way)

The "real world" is "infinite possibility" emerging at any moment.

Watch a bunch of David Icke youtubes... you'll get it.

Welcome to the "insane genius" club. (someday anyway)

Game will become easy once you give into the power of this secret.

Become the master of bending reality through Game.

No offense bud but I don't think you're in a position to be giving advice on this sub.
