For me there has to be a reason to nudge myself to take care of something that needs to be done. Fear can be a reason. Two years ago I was horrible at leaving dirty dishes in the sink and letting them pile up. I'm pretty afraid of going back to the years when I stayed inside for 7-10 days at a time (most times), let my laundry and dishes pile up and just ate food and sat on the computer. I only went outside to buy food.

There is a voice inside your head. That's definitely true. There's a voice that says "hey look, dirty dishes; I should do them now so they are clean next time I want to eat something." That one usually talks first. Then there can be another voice, "I'll do it later, it doesn't NEED to be done now, I'm young, I have all the time in the world to do the dishes." But really washing the dishes by hand is a simple task that doesn't take more than 10 minutes if there are a lot to do.

If you've ever been in a place where you are constantly nagged by that voice that tells you to do the dishes, and you ignore it for months straight, you know the kind of hell that can be. I've been there, and I'm afraid of going back, so when I hear that voice I RUN to do the dishes. Sure there are times when I leave them till morning if there are only a few and I'm really tired. But just listening to the voice for a couple days really turns the pilot light on.

Late night computer use is a pretty tough habit to break. What I've been doing is only use it until about dinner time, then go eat dinner and don't get back on. Do something else for a bit. Then if you need to use it for practice or whatever say "I'm gonna play x number of games, and that's it." Then turn it off. I hear that "do the dishes" voice every time I walk past my computer to go downstairs to my bedroom. But this time it says "go to bed, it's late." I think having something like a game of SC2 or LoL can break your computer dose, say you're on the computer and it's 1am and you need to sleep but you don't want to get off, and you're reading a bunch of stuff on community sites. Play a game of SC2 and turn it off. It's nice to have a chunk of time dedicated to an activity rather than clicking through 50 links (just 3 more...) and reading them all.

Yeah, sunlight is rad.


You know how scary true this is...?

Its spot on for me just a couple of months ago. Maybe not as bad but pretty damn close.

Best of luck, i truly admine how you keep on struggling and fighting with your depressoin.

Music has been a huge help for me over the years, playing an instrument is one of the better activities when you need to take your mind off things, relax and just be yourself for a while. It's been helping me go through rough periods for 10 years now, i don't know what i would have done without it.

NONY WASSUP IT'S SHITCOMBO

It sucks that you've got chronic long-term major depressive disorder, but we all have our challenges in life, and this is yours. You're a good person, though, from what I can tell of watching you play poppy in league of legends (gggggggggggggggg), so best wishes in making it through or solving it or whatever it is that you would consider a victory.

I'm getting my doctorate in clinical psychology right now and one of these days I hope to offer free services to progamers because I really do think that playing at such a high level alters your dopamine response curve.
I'm on GOLD CHAIN

Thankyou Tyler, reading your posts always seem to find a way to make me feel better.
I'm just a skip and a hop away in Emeryville, hopefully bay area weather doesn't stay this cold too long ;D I could use some sun.

hey man im sure you have done your research and tried to find every method possible to help yourself out but just in case i would like to share mine.

its all about getting your brain and body the nutrients it needs. look into orthomolecular methods for treating depression. mega nutrient therapy etc. once you correct your nutrient imbalances then you have to maintain a good diet with lots of organic green vegetables. also good fats and proteins become really important. but yeah look into taking megadoses of niacin, amino acids, magnesium and vitamin c among other things. really helped me out.

whatever u do, dont give in to big pharma meds. they will not help you in the long run

good luck

Best of luck Nony. You captured the essence of all my disasters so accurately of how after a single bad day I just want throw everything away. I'm glad you found a way past that stage, and I'm looking forward to your return. Until then, fighting!
