he doesn't have feet

For me, he is the only one who can cure hearts and souls. But faith can't be explained, it's a feeling in your heart that complete your life. i wish everybody could know what it is...

I usually don't like being open about things like these but I too "suffer" from depression. It's actually really bad times. But as you said Nony it's episodic. Sometimes I'm on top of the world, sometimes I'm on the bottom, and heck sometimes I'm nowhere to be found.

It's funny because I pride myself on being an extremely rational person. Yet the way I choose to live my life is sporadic and well from an outside view it's very irrational. Yet I say "Why must I live my life this way? The way I was told I have to live from birth.", it seems irrational to have to live because "that's just the way it is." or else when people say "Get a life!"; getting a life entails what exactly? Get a career, get married, have kids? It all sounds so unappealing to me. I'm plagued with thoughts of suicide and I constantly question life and it's meaning. I doubt I'll ever kill myself though.

I've struggled with it almost my whole life. It started when I was 13 and by time I was 15 I had an official diagnosis. I've always felt different and I'm always buried in my thoughts. I think that's what really causes it. I can't stop thinking. I relive my life through my head every waking moment without living in the current. It's why I get drunk, so I can stop thinking. thankfully drinking isn't a problem for me. It's just a temporary fix that I require every few weeks haha.

Anyway I wish you all the best from a fellow man who has depression.
Not bad for a cat toy.

Life isn't about yourself. It's never about just one person. One person's happiness is a factor of the happiness of those around them, as is that happiness's longevity, so looking for happiness in a hobby is only a temporary solution to a very long-term problem. The more that you think about this and ponder it, the more it will make sense.

I was going to post something here, talking about experiences with depression both the reactions of my family who have tested me for clinical depression, fun times (i'm not), and a family member who is clinically depressed (and has told me that I am no where near as depressed as they are, also fun in a not-really kinda way). Instead I am going to quote the post that I agree with, especially on the good days.

Best post in whole thread. And if there's a reason, don't do it :D.

Tl;dr Most fun, least regrets. ( != YOLO)

Also

I've been told most of my life, do not sweat the little things. And for most of my life I have misunderstood it.

I've always understood it as don't let it show that it bothers you, when you're actually not supposed to let it bother you... Go Figure ^^.

Anyways. On a final note:
I am always saddened when I hear that one of my SC2 idols is battling with his problem. I admire Nony and his practice regime. My hotkeys are based off of his. My theory crafting sessions are based off of his (both sourced from SOTG). I respect that he has made sacrifices for his sport, and that he has been forced to sacrifice the sport for things, and yet he is still able to be on the edge of glory. I hear he is owning it up in HotS, and am gladdened that he may be on the cusp of the breakout performance that will leave his mark on the foreign scene forever. I strongly suspect that the SC2 meta is lessened by his absence from the top top level, and I eagerly await his return after he has sorted out what he needs to sort out.

@Nony; You are probably battling things I can't understand, But I just want you to know that there are people like me out there, waiting for you to get ready for your big move, and come into the SC2 world. I believe that since you have continued to stick around playing SC2, and remain on that precarious edge for so long, you are truly dedicated to the sport, and its all the distractions of your problem that have been preventing you. I wish you all the best, and if there is anything I can do to help, even if its be the recipient of a random PM for w/e reason, don't hesitate

I also want to clarify, that while we are waiting for you, don't take anymore pressure onto yourself.

Get well soon, and may the light at the end of the tunnel continue to grow

As simple as it seems why do you have to think about this. Don't let your mind dwell and live in the moment. As someone who has spent hours contemplating my role in life and what it means I have to tell you that you won't find any answers.

You're right Tyler. In life there is no winning, but there sure is losing. If only there was a reason so that we might have the courtesy of an objective purpose. Intelligent people must come to terms with this at some point in their lifetime - and depression often goes hand in hand with that. But you're a smart guy and you should keep trekking because the world needs its smarties.

Tyler FIGHTING!

Life is so fun even when it's full of BS. I recently loss someone I valued soo much. I thought how her death crippled me and my family but I realized that we must be strong for those around us. Something bad happening is inevitable, you have to bounce back, you owe it to your loved ones and yourself!

You got too much to learn.
Find an asylum for the old and help there
2 points in this:
1. You'll get to talk with people with more knowledge than many in this forum, not about technology or trends but about life. After all, they are on the final stage.... They know how is it to approach the end and not be able to do a thing and yet they wait in patience.
2. You will help someone else. For the sake of doing good.
Happiness... that is a gift and it is so simple. That is something you decide, it isn't bought, earned or achieved. It's a decision, does it matter the reason? Then why is 1 + 1= 2? There is no reason for that... that is just the way it is. (Don't bring your multi-dimension and #/0 here, you geeky colleagues)

Rational thinking on why we live? Evolution Change in the gene pool of a population from generation to generation by mutation, natural selection and genetic drift. Does it matter? meh. Who cares, we only have one life.
Just Evolve dude and you'll be fine. How hard can that be?

Be more like a Zerg!

wow that post is so unbelievably ignorant, it's appalling.
What else can I just be? Can i just be an NFL quarterback? Can I just be a president? Can blind just see? Can mute just talk?

Quiet honestly, it's PTSD. You get flashbacks of your lowest of lows and experience all the other symptoms.

But this is exactly the reason we should keep wondering, isn't it? If we don't seek answers constantly, if we don't demand the universe to tell us what is going on and keep digging, we will stagnate and ultimately end up worse than where we started.

Of course, that doesn't mean you shouldn't be happy. That's what makes life worth living, isn't it? I just believe that we can't just let it be.

i've never until now considered it a lack of basic feeling (maybe a denial of feelings, though).
i like to think that i take a lot of views into account, but i am still so self-centered---focused on dealing with the feelings and thoughts i have instead of considering all the other views out there that others will have.

unlike a diminishing or dampening of feelings, i feel that they're taken to extreme sensitivity.
that sensitivity feels exclusive and personal to me, yet it is not. the experience of realizing my depression becomes a train of thoughts, much like this post.
the end result is similar to what everyone else experiences over this.

the difference i feel is that for me,
i think and feel that it is a necessity to 'fall' in the way i do. it is not about an expectation of any sorts... not an expectation of when it will happen, how it will happen, or what others are constantly expecting of me.
it is the act of recognizing my current state of emotions and embracing them as far as they'll go. that is what helps me feel alive at times.

my emotions become extensive and i don't feel like myself when around others.
i guess that's where a sense of humility.. in being human lays
you are i are men among others, yet we are important in so many ways that can't be seen
