How do you battle depression by your own?
(lemmings.world)
sing. doesn't matter what you sing or how well.
That dopamine hit.
yep
Maybe see if there are help groups like the ones for alcoholics. I'm sure they also exist for depressed people, or people who procrastinate. Generally they're lead by volunteers and people who suffered through it themselves and not professionals who need to be paid...
I don't have depression. Journaling help, saying stuff out loud helps. Seems that antidepressants work. There might be other factors that contribute to the depression and can be minimised to help take the weight off.
Oh.
Slowly and inefficiently, I should say.
I've basically missed the last 20 years of my life.
(And I have "professional help.")
