TRPing through Depression and Anxiety?

Depression.

Accomplish something everyday. No matter how minor. Even if it is doing the dishes or the laundry or working out. Just something to mark in your mental ledger of moving forward. Don't fixate on your goal, instead think that one accomplishment moved you one step closer to it.

Anxiety.

"pull the tiger's tail" . Go do something that makes you slightly anxious. Dance in public, go to the mall, I don't know what makes you anxious so you will have to fill in the blanks. Do it for five minutes, just sit there and experience it. Then stop doing it. You survived, lived through it and it was not so bad. If you want you can make it in the ledger of accomplishments for that day.

Time away from chasing women can be beneficial... spend it on self-improvement: clean up your diet, lift, meditate, etc. etc.

Really. Devote time to improving yourself. Once you're exercising and eating healthy, you'll feel much better. But you have to give it time. Commit yourself to 3 months to focusing on the diet and exercise improvements. Keep a journal, sleep well, and meditate.

Be patient with yourself and give yourself time to adjust to a new lifestyle.

Anxiety sufferer here. Unfortunately, this will affect your interaction with women. Women can sniff out fear in a man from a mile away.

wrap your head around microdosing -> r/microdosing. maybe worth a try for you to reduce social anxiety and general pessimism

meanwhile it is absolutely essential that you get your body strong and and healthy. a strong body means so much for your overall psychic behaviour. dont take it easy here, get into sports every other day - doesnt really matter wether you want to lift or run or play football or karate - just MOVE. treat your body as a temple. every other day reach your limits, no excuses here. and diet of course. you are what you eat. become a broccoli.

I have anxiety in large groups, and have filed my fair share of chicks (till I decided to be exclusive with a legit chick). Just meet 1v1 with chicks you meet on tinder, gym, and work.
