why not help out people around you or even just helping out your community?
volunteer for fun raisers, charities and cancer programs, and other related things.
go clean up some beaches
go make a documentary and spread a message
go travel around the world and help out those in need.
help out other people, give out your love

Restricted license. Can't go to the gym unless a friend goes with me.
I've made just about every change I could possibly make in the past few months. Started exercising, got my own place, started eating a hell of a lot better, got on a good schedule, etc etc etc.
I feel better overall until this depression hits me. Then I don't want to leave the house for a week.
One step forward, 10 steps back. It's always been like that and I don't see it ever changing. I've been trying to change it for about 20 years now.

I do walk and bike around the neighborhood. Also lift weights and use my parents old ass nordic track they gave me.
Exercise is hard when it's nearly impossible to drag myself out of bed. It certainly didn't make me feel better today.
Just gotta ride it out, however long it lasts. And then wait for it to happen all over again.

Restricted license. Before that I volunteered at the city food bank and at the animal league where I got my cat, walking dogs. Did that until some of the larger dogs started royally fucking up my back.
Saturday my parents church is having it's annual bike day at one of the lower income areas in the city, fixing up bikes and donating them to the local children. I've done it a few times and it really brightens my day. But I'll have to wait and see how I feel Saturday morning before I commit to that. No point in going all the way out there when I can't even enjoy helping people out. It's happened before, trying to do charity work to help alleviate my depression before I fully snapped out of it. It just went to remind me how fucked up my brain is and how pointless everything I do is, even if it's with the best intentions.
Basically, if the depression hasn't lifted by Sat morning, I'm not going to volunteer. It will hurt more than it will help. And I can say that with 100% certainty since I've been there before over a dozen times.

I started out on Prozac. Made me feel like an emotionless zombie. Can't take any of the newer SSRI's and SNRI's. The side effects are too much to bear.
I'm on Pamelor right now, which is an older tryciclic, much less side effects and it was helping a lot with the depression. Now it feels like I've just fallen off a cliff, literally.

Have you tried prayer? Ask yourself for the strength to get through what you're going through. Ask yourself to let go of the things that are holding you back. Start focusing on things that at one point brought you joy and look for that joy again. Take some time in nature. Try walking while in thought. A big part is not taking it out on yourself that a government you don't agree with is attempting to control your life.
The most important part is making a genuine deal with yourself that life is too short to allow yourself to be miserable.

I just want you to know Wake that ive been going through the same thing this week.
its not even caused by anything. it just happens randomly.
Right now many souls on the planet are exhausted and tired during the month of may, not so much physically but mentally/spiritually.
If any say that its bullshit that i state such a claim, then dont believe it. I dont want to go into further details about it either, i just have my beliefs.
Ive been slightly depressed this week, although tonight i personally came to the point where I started crying. I feel so sad for alot of the world's people not living in the moment and being a slave to the financial system, and I myself dont know what to do with my life and am feeling a turn around soon enough. I have one brother who lives in oregon and another who lives here in orlando that is deciding to move with his gf, who i introduced him to, up in New york near rochester (sp). I am baffled by this as he never sticks with any woman, but however is older than me. Yet I am always stuck alone without a gf and my longest one has been 3 months. I have so much love to give but no one to trust it with, as so many women are ignorant and greedy in my area. It makes me feel so wasted, I want to give my love to another and spend time with, but I am lost.
With this being said I also havent tripped since with my ex 2 months ago and she's left a stain on my mind that hasnt left me able to enjoy life's subtle moments. You know those moments.
finding a moment for lunch in the day or taking a stroll on your day off and just enjoying the breeze outside and not particularly aiming to do anything, and enjoying it more than anything else you could do. I used to do this all the time, but this essence has left me...
I came to the conclusion that "the spirit" has called out to me. It hit me hard and told me that now i must cleanse and rejuvenate my body.
so I took a dmt techno shower (led shower head).
right now im feeling very 
I really hope things get better for you, and want to remind you of something. All things are temporary and transient, even depression.

Quite true. I was REALLY depressed about 4-5 months ago. I've lost 35lbs and I'm starting to get in shape. Now I have energy to do new things/fun stuff. Now I'm having fun. The depression lifts.
Big surprise, right?

What is the point of dying? We are put in charge of piloting our bodies, to keep them alive. If you view everything from a middle standpoint and look at both negatives and positives, you will find it's much easier to focus on one or the other at your will. There's so much beauty in life itself. Stepping outside and seeing the plants and the people, the construction of human intelligence, animals, nature, everything. It all means nothing, no point at all. Yet at the same time it is everything. Perfect balance of chaos and harmony, that we are all lucky enough to experience before we pass into the next phase. Right now as you are reading this, we are communicating through electronic devices that send messages through space from who knows where. It doesn't matter, even though you can't see us we are here to help and support you. It is normal as humans to experience depression, it's a normal human thought/feeling like any other and it can be just as beautiful as the rest of them.

:ifeelyourpainbro:
i was in your exact position last year. holy fuck did it fucking suck.. i hope that never comes back. it was probably hands down, one of the most horrible experiences in my life ever. that feeling of just.. not wanting to wake up in the morning or just wishing something would just do you off to just excape being conscious. i dont understand why this shit happens to us.. apparently its just hardwired in human chemistry. who knows why. its so terrible.. i wouldnt wish that shit on my worst enemy.
youll come out of it though. it may take a few months but just remember, nothing bad lasts forever. i thought it would never end but im still alive a year later.. still recovering but i feel sooooooo much better compaired to last summer. your not alone my brother and remember.. theres plenty of time to be dead so stay with us because our lives are short in the first place.. n once your gone.. your gone for good. its apart of life, it's what makes us human. it blows ass but youll recover. n like one of the above posters mentioned.. do whatever endorphine activity you can. it will make a world of a difference!

reminds me of a eminem song.
" I'm tired of all of this bullshit telling me to be positive How am I supposed to be positive when I don't see shit positive? You know what I'm sayin'? "
im at the better end of 'depression.' i mean, i can see the ' light ' is what im saying. its just certain things are holding me back atm from achieving and doing what i want to do.
i think its cause im still young though. im not ' out there ' doin the things i love to do like stated earlier, its because im not where i want to be in life, but i'll get there.

Woke up, things feel a lot better. It'll be back though, do know when, don't know how bad. But it will be back.
And my package of Omaha steaks came today, perfect day for some grilling.
Plus I have like 2kg of dry ice to play with and lots of soda and gatorade bottles in the recycling bin. 
Provided I don't blow a hand off, it should be a fun day.

Yeah, that doesn't really work when your brain isn't functioning properly. I wish it was that simple.

You can afford steak!?!?!?!?!?
Depression will pass, unless it doesn't
It sucks though when you abstain from suicide to save family from the pain.
