No training or interest in training,eating very little, and it`s usually shit,feel like leaving my wife,have felt suicidal,and felt like drinking......I never feel like drinking or getting high.
Not looking for sympathy for the pricks here that always say that.....I have explained to Josh how I feel cuz I know he can relate.
Long story, but I cannot remember a time since I was about 12-13 where I haven`t been depressed......this is why I self medicated for so many decades,just trying to escape this severe depression.
Fast forward to these times now (today),and my anxiety has taken precedence over my depression....ie, I am always somewhat depressed but I have learned how to deal with it by staying busy.....training, and competing has always helped in this regard,but now my depression has once again reared its ugly head......I know it will pass but this has been a fucking monster.
At any rate no matter how I feel it`s back to the gym on Monday (seriously couldn`t be bothered to to start earlier and I like a new beginning and Monday seems to work for me ),and I`m gonna` diet like a pre-contest but eat larger portions and add in cardio..........anything to stay busy and occupied.
I have a shitload of bio-identical supps for my contest,so on Monday if I don`t post in the training section it means I`ve hung myself in my barn. :D
Sorry for the Matt C. like rant but had to vent and it seemed the thing to do with my getbig family.
I am like The Phoenix so I don`t go out like a punkass bitch but this sux.

Push past it best you can. Time is limited for all of us, keep pushing!

I will my friend......Monday I will train 4 days a week combining bodyparts and then back to 6 days once the soreness subsides.
I hate to sound like a bitch but I feel fucked!!

Hi Wes,
Have you considered TRT?

Good advice Steve.....thanks buddy.
This ain`t my first rodeo been dealing with it forever but it`s a bad bout for sure!
-
Hi Wes,
Have you considered TRT?
Ro,right now I`m doing 200 mgs. of Test 400 and just threw in a bit of D-Bol.
I`ll be OK,it`s just a bitch waiting for it to pass.
Thanks Ro,and congrats again on your show,you will turn pro soon brother ! :)

Sorry to hear Bud. Hang in there. It'll get better. Depression is like wearing blinders. It's better than you think, you just can't see it right now.
Things that have worked for me:
Sunlight, unplugging tv/computer/smartphone and reading a book, listening to music (with really good quality headphones) and hitting the gym. If you have access to a pool swimming for some reason always makes me feel better- I think just large bodies of water in general are good- something about the motion of the water charging the ions? An old hippie told me that once but it seems to work for me.

Thanks doc,I know I`ll be good it`s just a bitch at the moment.
I appreciate the kind words and advice but like I said I just wanted to vent to people that I consider friends whether they be online or not.
Much appreciated and I`ll be hitting the gym on Monday,the gym has always been my sanctuarary.
No need to comment further unless you feel like telling me to fuck off and put on my big boy pants! ;D

Do you feel stuck in your marriage?
Do you not love her anymore?
Is the relationship not exciting anymore?
Is nothing in life exciting anymore?

There are a lot of younger guys (including myself ) that could benefit from your experience, knowledge, and wisdom. For what it's worth, I hope you feel useful and needed.

Thanks Jeff,you`ve always been a great guy in my book.
I appreciate the concern......I`ll be OK,you just stay focused and win that overall title brother.....I know you will slay the opposition.
My wife is behind me but she doesn`t quite understand depression..........my life has been a bit shitty from an early age but I will prevail,I always have thus far........had a nervous breakdown in Florida in the early 90`s......scariest thing in my entire life.
Thanks again,it means a lot.....don`t know what else to say except I may send a PM if it gets anymore insane than it already is.

i get like that and take big doses of psychedelics
hit the reset button
more than likely it’s something you’re unaware of that’s bothering you - a good insightful trip bella bring that shit to the surface
or you may have a hormone imbalance - TSH maybe or switch from test to a dht like masteron for a bit
the call dmt the business man’s trip cause in 15min you literally come to terms with all that shit that isn’t surface level but bothers the fuck out of you - i do this every 3 months
you can also go it if you take big dabs (concentrate)
hope you feel better wes - had some friends go to the dark side when they got down

Thanks Spike and you hit the nail on the proverbial head.....I have no clue how or why I feel this way but it has always been like that for me.

Thanks again brother!

DM if you need to talk it out.

I see my therapist in a few weeks......I have always thrown away the meds as they did shot for me.
Back in the 80`s they had me on a med that made me feel comfortable in my own skin for once.....I was on the highest dosage allowed then they tell me they have to take me off of it as it was damaging peoples liver and had even killed a few people.
Miraculously enough after all the bullshit I did to my body.my liver has no lesions,visible scarring,and my enzymes are fine......that`s insane to me after all the stupid shit I did to get drunk and high......but that was in another life,but I`m a lucky bastard......I know about 125-150 people I "partied" with who are pushing up daisies right now.
-
Sorry to hear this Wes.
You're a legend in my eyes and respected and liked by many. You always have a good word for people and contribute to a wide range of topics, plus you have fantastic knowledge and experience. I hope you know your getbig family appreciates you greatly and most importantly.....you will get through this.
Depression can be a monster but you have slayed this beast before and you can do it again now.
If you ever want to drop me a line you are more than welcome.

There's a lot of talk about doing two large dose mushroom trips (25mg?), and wearing blinders and doing an introspective. Someone's been commissioning a study on this, and has had some good success stories.
Wes, it's good you recognize your symptoms....you'll pull through....heck I don't give a shit about anything here but wanted to see you compete for your pro card, so stay the course. Get well buddy!

Each day is another chapter or story in our lives. It cannot be written if the author says it's done. It is normal to feel down at times. You would not be human otherwise and so I adjure you to take a look at past chapters and find reasons to keep writing that book.
At least you can write. Look at that retard bhanky, he is the personification of a typist. :D

That sounds so much like what happened to me,
Had me on some tablet & I felt good - my mind was quite stable & balanced
Probably the best I can remember feeling.
Yep they stopped it for pretty much same reasons .
My mind slowly returned to the rollercoaster hell ride it is.
Its worse than any prison sentence- battling your own mind & the day to day
Crap of outside life.
Lot of interesting posts- Thanks all that have posted suggestions to Wes.

Of course drugs are your answer.
Surprised you didn’t suggest mdma.

“Kick at the darkness until it bleeds daylight” ~ Bruce Cockburn (from the song “Lovers in a Dangerous Time”)
I know how treacherous depression can be. A foe more challenging than the next 1,000 Jason Blahas.
Stay the course. Day to day. Day to day. Day to day.
Grab a firm hold of the things you most cherish in this world. (For Fortress, these are music and lifting, for instance.)
You’re very appreciated here, brother. Don’t forget this.
We’re a ragtag group of goofballs, but the good ones here have your back.
Sincerely,
Robert

Sorry to hear. Maybe just take a complete lifestyle break for a week or two. No gym. No foods you usually eat. Avoid the usual time frames and routine. Change your scenery and take long walks. Binge watch a tv show. If you drink try to cut back a little.
Never underestimate the power of the ocean. It has rejuvenating properties. I live less than half a mile from the ocean and am usually in it twice a week.
Just do something different from your normal routine for a bit. Make the time/break/change work for you. If you have been grinding away in the gym for a while it’s important physically and mentally to give your CNS a break. CNS fatigue can greatly affect your mind and outlook. Schedule little breaks in the future and take them even if you don’t feel like you need them.
I’ve been in Japan since May 8 and won’t leave until 24. I’ve been using this time as a break and recharge opportunity. I haven’t trained once over here. (Mainly because gyms are scarce) but just stayed busy walking a lot. And tried a 24 hour fast that Keto Kid got me interested in.
Remember your body isn’t a machine. You can’t plod along in the same rut nonstop without it affecting. Just take a break and rest. Try something different. Even if it is just blasting 80s songs and punching a bag to release the tension.

You are a great man to give up alcohol I think it’s the hardest of all because it’s everywhere
Stay strong brother and lots of love from your amigo in the motherland

Hi Wes,
Have you considered TRT?
I hope you are well Ronan I’m sorry I didn’t make contact last time I was away with the fairies I’ll give you a call if you PM me your number

Stop the Ride I want to Get off.
I've kinda done that 3 times now and when I am given yet another chance I find I am grateful. You are a good man. Think of it this way, we may think we are done writing our story but then someone else enters our life to give us reason to hope for more time.

Take care big wes
Cardio and unprotected vaginal sex are the best cures for depression that I know of.

coolest thing you ever wrote brother!
nice.

Sorry to hear this. I know this will make guys here angry but doesn't the use of bodybuilding drugs put a person on an emotional roller coaster? Even Arnold and Mentzer talked about it.
Get some help. Hopefully they can find the right drugs to help you out.
What works for me is cardio. A long fast walk in the sunshine does wonders for my disposition. Someone mentioned water and I concur. Being in a pool or the ocean makes for a better day. Then again you live close to the north pole.
Hope nothing I wrote pissed you off. Know this. Hold on for 15 minutes. Make it a day. Make that day a week. A month and go toward a year of hanging on. Bad times won't last. You will smile again. Just hang on. I remember back in the Ironage board you were always quick to share your knowledge of training on private messages. Thought that was really decent of you to respond to my questions.

Glad to hear you’re seeing your dr soon. Don’t blame your wife for not understanding. Most people who don’t have similar issues cannot relate… I call those people “Very Lucky.” Lol
Take everything one day at a time and keep training. When you start seeing results from your new nutritional plan, I believe you will be in a better place.
Hang in there and just get to tomorrow my friend….
-
Stay the course. Day to day. Day to day. Day to day.

one day of fortitude.

But it’s easy for you to say when your cock has been in Laura :D

Good advice by Fortress. Hang in Wes and good luck with your prep!
What works for me when I feel down is to choose one or two goals to accomplish that day and complete it. When you take things one step at a time it helps. One goal completed means you've progressed from where you were before you took on the goal. And it takes your mind off what's keeping you down. I know its not always as simple as that but its a start. And sometimes I just say fuck it I am not worrying about this shit anymore.

What's depressing is when you finally express to friends that you may not want to go on. Chances now are you're like a leper. Like this guy smells of death, better keep my distance. I'm much the same as you, lifelong depression and unfortunately I don't have good advice, otherwise I would have applied it to myself. But maybe the idea of "things always can get better" is often true, at times things don't feel as heavy. Wes you come across as very sympathetic guy on here, we want you to go on.
Could the "banned" drug have been lithium? It was never banned though but it requires blood work periodically.
-
this has helped me
-
Wes my friend sorry it’s taken me so long to post.Trust me it’s not from lack of interest.You will fight back from this just hit that iron and you will immediately feel better.Many times over the last (shit) 45 years now I have felt like the world is caving in on me and as soon as I hit the weight room I felt better.Hang in there buddy and let me know if I can help.Stay strong brother
Train hard
-
Thanks to all of you guys....you`re the best.
I feel better all ready.
-
No training or interest in training,eating very little, and it`s usually shit,feel like leaving my wife,have felt suicidal,and felt like drinking......I never feel like drinking or getting high.
Not looking for sympathy for the pricks here that always say that.....I have explained to Josh how I feel cuz I know he can relate.
Long story, but I cannot remember a time since I was about 12-13 where I haven`t been depressed......this is why I self medicated for so many decades,just trying to escape this severe depression.
Fast forward to these times now (today),and my anxiety has taken precedence over my depression....ie, I am always somewhat depressed but I have learned how to deal with it by staying busy.....training, and competing has always helped in this regard,but now my depression has once again reared its ugly head......I know it will pass but this has been a fucking monster.
At any rate no matter how I feel it`s back to the gym on Monday (seriously couldn`t be bothered to to start earlier and I like a new beginning and Monday seems to work for me ),and I`m gonna` diet like a pre-contest but eat larger portions and add in cardio..........anything to stay busy and occupied.
I have a shitload of bio-identical supps for my contest,so on Monday if I don`t post in the training section it means I`ve hung myself in my barn. :D
Sorry for the Matt C. like rant but had to vent and it seemed the thing to do with my getbig family.
I am like The Phoenix so I don`t go out like a punkass bitch but this sux.
Have you tried some CBG? Seriously great for depression, no shit.

Don't be a twat

One day at a time, my friend.
This too shall pass and all will be well.
Read a enjoyable book. Sit in the sun. Take a walk and look at the beauty of nature.
Listen to great music.
Watch the movie "It's A Wonderful Life".
Eat ice cream.
*Avoid over-training. Stop each set 2-3 reps before failure. 10-15 sets per bodypart, twice a week is more than enough.*
-
Just kidding Wes !
Without typing too much on the subject, many times anger turned inwards manifests itself as depression. Do you have a source of anger or frustration that you haven't acknowledged that is affecting you negatively ? You're a smart guy, turn that high powered intellect on yourself and reflect on some recent events that may have triggered your malaise. The cause and effect might be staring you in the face and you don't realize it.
I will call you up and we can chat.
Be strong. Always be stronger than your excuses !
-
Don't be a twat
Eat shit, fuckwad.

A legal delta 8 thc gummy isn't going to get you high or hurt your training it might however help your mood sleep and appetite.
Delta 8 can and will still get you high. Normally, I'd agree with this advice but for Wes who has addiction challenges, this is not the best advice. Perhaps, it would be worth Wes discussing these alternative therapies with his therapist and/or doctor.
That being said, I have no doubt Wes will plow through this latest setback and get back on track. Wishing my friend Wes nothing but the best and I'm always available to chat. Homo. Pure homo. :)
-
I am prescribed Diazapam......seems to help a bit.
If you feel like you're getting stabbed in the heart with a long sword it won't do shit. But if you feel like you're experiencing death by a thousand paper cuts it'll change your life. Can't stand CBD I feel like I'm getting a feverish depression any time I tried it. THC just makes me all paranoid and anxious.
I've listened to Joe Rogan blabbler on about exogenous chemicals for years, I'm very anti drugs including pharmies, but this stuff is legit.

I can so relate...My mother emotionally abused me to a point just short of suicide daily...My older sister told me well after I reached adulthood that the family physician told my parents that they should never allow me to have any say or power over anything...Nothing at all...and they didn't. I was dismissed about everything,,.Even about something as not important as wanting to go see the Three Stooges and Laurel and Hardy on Saturdays at the movies...Or getting my drivers license when I was 16 when I made all A's at drivers education.
-
Eat shit, fuckwad.
Don't cry, ok?
-
I feel you Wes, I get like this all the time as well. Feel free to reach out anytime. I’m about to kill myself one day and next day riding high and back and forth. Life really can suck but can be good as well.

Are you saying your parents would not let you become a trans-woman and have the operation?

My childhood,if you want to call it that was a fucking nightmare.
Try having a daily drunk as a father who terrorised me and my sisters and told us we would never amount to shit,then throw in the fact that he was a woman beater who broke my mothers nose and knocked out her teeth and beat us up weekly.
He used to tell me as a kid as I did doorway chinups that I was a fag and only guys lifted weights......plus I lived in a ghetto in the 60`s and 70`s and was getting high in the hippie days and my biggest accomplishment after surviving this and much much more was that I survived Catholic school in the 1960`s.......until they threw me the fuck out of course.
Remember integration,well I was the only white kid on the bus with 45 coons so I was both hated by them and by my own kind for being poor.
I learned real quick how to run fast and then I learned how to fight pretty good as nobody was stealing my shoes. LOL ;D
Got married to a stripper on a strip club stage,got my head busted open by my best man for a wedding gift then guns came out......and a good time was had by all! :D
I`ve been pronounced dead from OD`ing 3 times,survived Hepatitus B with a 105 degree temp for 7 days before I signed myself out AMA,survived Colitus where my small self lost 40 fucking pounds and looked corpselike.....survived lung Cancer......what the fuck,if I die I had a great fucking time. LOL ;D
I could go on and on but some things I keep to myself and nobody would believe me anyway.
Worked as a doorman weighing a buck 70 for 13 years......still alive.
I could write two fucking novels,as a matter of fact many people have told me that I should but the only people that would read them would be criminals.
Anyway,now I`m pissed at myself,back in the gym next week and I pity any asshole that looks at me crosseyed............... .just been around too fucking long and through too much shit to take kindly to disrespect.....whether it be in a mall,grocery store,movie theater,...........you know the drill. ;D
I`ve worn a lot of hats in my life but like the one I wear now......always a stand up guy to the best of my ability anyway.

wow i always knew you were an idiot, i didn't realize you were a little bitch too.

I hear you. You want to vent. You don't want to hear a lot of "try this" advice because, hell, since 13 you've been dealing with this and it's not your 1st rodeo. I hope you start feeling better soon.

Yo fucktard, I didn't think I'd say it but even your normal, mindless 'brutal if true' that you have said to death and back is better than this. People found you vaguely amusing until you repeated the same shit so many times you wore out any good will you had going. FUCK OFF

I don't think I'll ever wrap my head around accepting that a human being will see another human being posting about a mental illness and being vulnerable.. and another person can't rise above the sewer and either ignore the post or have something positive to say. Pam has been on this site what.. 4 years.. and she thinks she has the right to be a jerk to an OG? There is Getbig mentality and there is being a decent human being... Pammy apparently doesn't understand that..
-
Right back at you my friend.....you`ve always been a good dude!!
Thanks so much for the encouragement.
I feel like a kunt now that I started this thread.......it took me 3 days of thinking to finally decide to post it but you guys are a big help cuz I know you give a fuck.
Thanks again my friend.
PS- I need henda to tell me to toughen up or set myself on fire! LOL ;D
Never feel bad about posting things like this. You've been here 20 years. If this isn't a family by now I don't know what is. The downside is, there will be that "Cousin Ernie" chiming in. But the majority of the OG's understand everyone has tough times and will be supportive.

At 67 years old you fucking one syllable fucking retard 200 mgs. of TRT isn`t gonna` make or break me.....wait until you see the veritable boatload of shit I`m doing for my contest you jealous imbecile! :D
Sorry of you`re a pussy who`s afraid to do a shot you roach infested fuck.
40 years in the ghetto/streets and we never had mice or roaches you filthy fuck! :D

Get well soon Wes. Being able to vent on Getbig helps.
-
Sorry to hear this. I know this will make guys here angry but doesn't the use of bodybuilding drugs put a person on an emotional roller coaster? Even Arnold and Mentzer talked about it.
Get some help. Hopefully they can find the right drugs to help you out.
What works for me is cardio. A long fast walk in the sunshine does wonders for my disposition. Someone mentioned water and I concur. Being in a pool or the ocean makes for a better day. Then again you live close to the north pole.
Hope nothing I wrote pissed you off. Know this. Hold on for 15 minutes. Make it a day. Make that day a week. A month and go toward a year of hanging on. Bad times won't last. You will smile again. Just hang on. I remember back in the Ironage board you were always quick to share your knowledge of training on private messages. Thought that was really decent of you to respond to my questions.
Never any offense taken Rich.....glad you`re back old friend and I never take a ton of stuff....was never a relyer,I love to train hard.
-
Just woke up,need coffee sorry not to address every post but my old self types with my right index finger.....I do a lot of other stuff with that finger too,but trust that I appreciate all advice and comments whether pro or con..........except for the retard Pamiths.............guys a......well a retard ad I hate that word but if the fucking shoe fits !

Have you thought about getting meds for the depression?
Is it better today?
How about doing something new and exciting (out of the ordinary)
Maybe that will excite you and help you put your mind on other things
-

Maybe I`ll visit Pamith and bring a case of DDT and a case of Raid,along with a kick to the throat.
Actually bro,great advice but not feasible as I just paid my property taxes and had to put in in a new water tank in my basement but I will do something that takes me out of the norm.....thanks!
-
I haven’t logged in in a while but I will to say we all love you Wes and don’t be bothered with the likes of hanky this online stuff can take a toll on you if you keep arguing too much here
You are a great man to give up alcohol I think it’s the hardest of all because it’s everywhere
Stay strong brother and lots of love from your amigo in the motherland

Take care big wes
Cardio and unprotected vaginal sex are the best cures for depression that I know of.
YES!!!
Thanks old friend. :)
You are truly a good guy Wes! (Bury yourself in training and competing .... that's what I do ... the dieting and everything keeps me so busy the negative thoughts don't have a chance to creep in!) ... get out of the house as much as possible ...try to enjoy life!!
My plan exactly starting on Monday Mike..............it`s gonna` be Tunnellvision City !
Thanks bro!

Each day is another chapter or story in our lives. It cannot be written if the author says it's done. It is normal to feel down at times. You would not be human otherwise and so I adjure you to take a look at past chapters and find reasons to keep writing that book.
At least you can write. Look at that retard bhanky, he is the personification of a typist. :D
You know Scott I have always looked at my life as if it were a book of chapters,I can`t wait to turn the page on this one......thanks to Bob Seger for the that line! ;D

One day at a time, my friend.
This too shall pass and all will be well.
Read a enjoyable book. Sit in the sun. Take a walk and look at the beauty of nature.
Listen to great music.
Watch the movie "It's A Wonderful Life".
Eat ice cream.
*Avoid over-training. Stop each set 2-3 reps before failure. 10-15 sets per bodypart, twice a week is more than enough.*
Thanks buddy....I`d throw up a Sandler or Bruce Lee gif but I need more java.
You`re a great guy Nat......no homo except on weekends when I am in cross dresser mode. LOL ;D

Not much mention of prayer here but I will throw it out there. I was never religious, but recently (at much older years) started to attend church on and off because a friend had a long association with that church. Lo and behold, about a few months later I find myself in the pastor’s office confessing a thing or two. It relieved me a huge amount. Plus just getting the exposure to the words of Jesus on Sundays, whether buying into all the aspects or not.
Stay strong and all the best. The gym and the competitions are a huge plus! As Michelangelo said on the Sistine Chapel ceiling, the beauty of man is the work of God.
-
Fair weather friends, not worth a shit.
Yes but in a way understandable psychologically for various evolutionary reason. I think the data says wives are prone to leave if you are in economic hardships or get physically or mentally ill - just when you might need support most. A friend I told a while back that I wasn't feeling so hot, just texted me, "Van I feel like I didn't quite understand how tough things are for you because you almost never complain. I don't know if I would have the strength to go on in your situation." I just chuckled at his honesty, at least he didn't tell me to perk up, toughen up and how life is so wonderful at all times. And depression and anxiety is very hard to understand if you never went through a serious episode yourself.

Hey Van I can`t remember that medication for the life of me....sorry I tracked what I have left of a brain and can`t remember shit........except that it worked.
It`ll pop into my head out of a clear blue sky and I`ll let you know.

Long story,I`m no Bible banger but I pray several times daily.
After all the shit I`ve been through,I figured I had shit luck even if it was self induced, then it came to me that some higher power had to be watching out for my dumb ass.
I was a doubting Thomas but having faith never hurt anyone.
Like I always say sometimes....."There are no atheists in foxholes"!!
Damn,I`ve known you a loooong fucking time from the forums bro.....YOU got old!! LOL ;D

The lockdowns killed my business. The only thing got me through were the iron and metal. Lifting weights and heavy metal music.

Anyway,now I`m pissed at myself,back in the gym next week and I pity any asshole that looks at me crosseyed............... .just been around too fucking long and through too much shit to take kindly to disrespect.....whether it be in a mall,grocery store,movie theater,...........you know the drill. ;D
I`ve worn a lot of hats in my life but like the one I wear now......always a stand up guy to the best of my ability anyway.
This whole thing especially with the guns coming out at the wedding sounds like a story a character would say in a George Higgins novel!
Was the stripper a good fuck?
-
Oh thtop it ....don`t be thilly ! ;D
Outed!
;D ;D ;D ;D

No training or interest in training,eating very little, and it`s usually shit,feel like leaving my wife,have felt suicidal,and felt like drinking......I never feel like drinking or getting high.
Not looking for sympathy for the pricks here that always say that.....I have explained to Josh how I feel cuz I know he can relate.
Long story, but I cannot remember a time since I was about 12-13 where I haven`t been depressed......this is why I self medicated for so many decades,just trying to escape this severe depression.
Fast forward to these times now (today),and my anxiety has taken precedence over my depression....ie, I am always somewhat depressed but I have learned how to deal with it by staying busy.....training, and competing has always helped in this regard,but now my depression has once again reared its ugly head......I know it will pass but this has been a fucking monster.
At any rate no matter how I feel it`s back to the gym on Monday (seriously couldn`t be bothered to to start earlier and I like a new beginning and Monday seems to work for me ),and I`m gonna` diet like a pre-contest but eat larger portions and add in cardio..........anything to stay busy and occupied.
I have a shitload of bio-identical supps for my contest,so on Monday if I don`t post in the training section it means I`ve hung myself in my barn. :D
Sorry for the Matt C. like rant but had to vent and it seemed the thing to do with my getbig family.
I am like The Phoenix so I don`t go out like a punkass bitch but this sux.
eat a heroic dose of shrooms, you'll sort yourself out right quick

Wow :o so late to this thread sorry - didn't think it was actually about you Wes!

Hope you feel better soon though, Bro

I just accepted a not small repair estimate for the boat planning to get out on the water more this summer since I won't be racing. The idea is to try the Albemarle Loop. Basically small towns on the Albemarle sound all within a day boating of each other with Marinas you can stay overnight and explore the town. My boat is a full camper.

Maybe get yourself an RV and go adventuring across the country with the wifey this summer see the National parks

Yes it's a trait of many autistic's, their steely resolve. We're all just stuck dealing with them sperging out constantly.

Absolutely if Wes comes down here I will take him offshore on my boat and it is relevant because boating is a hobby and he needs a new fucking hobby

Adderall prescription 30mg x 2
What's the difference between Adderall and Sertraline?
Sertraline is a type of antidepressant known as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI).
It's often used to treat depression, and also sometimes panic attacks, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Sertraline works by increasing the levels of a mood-enhancing chemical called serotonin in your brain.
It helps many people recover from depression, and has fewer unwanted side effects than older antidepressants.
Sertraline comes as tablets, which are available only on prescription.
-
Wes
Wake up each morning and hearing either of these women and you'll stay depressed :D
-
Life is utter shit so if you’re a rational person you should feel depressed.

So Setraline is better then?
-
What's the difference between Adderall and Sertraline?
Amphetamines are the fastest acting antidepressants ime but then I haven't tried Ketamine or psychedelics or electric shock therapy. From what I've read on bodybuilding forums some can still get them prescribed for depression. This is just my experience, but I would think ampetamine isn't much more dangerous than antidepressants, either physically or psychologically. But there's this baggage of history. Some antid's are even modeled after rec drugs, like cocaine has the same mechanism of action as the antid Wellbutrin which is part of my stack. Of course I'm not saying they are equipotent. Ritalin is also a dopamine reuptake inhibitor.

They're different. Adderall affects dopamine. Sertraline affects serotonin.
Serotonin makes you calm. Almost apathetic.
Dopamine makes you slightly euphoric.

no it doesnt
Serotonin plays several roles in your body, including influencing learning, memory, happiness as well as regulating body temperature, sleep, sexual behavior and hunger. Lack of enough serotonin is thought to play a role in depression, anxiety, mania and other health conditions.

In all fairness, anyone claiming they are depressed, they better have a real f*cking reason, don't f*cking tell me you got everything in your life, good health, money, gf, wife, family, friends etc but somehow you are in this ''perpetual dark, sad, suicidal'' state of mind for no apparent reason, nah, nikka please, if you are like that then you are a f*cking pussy. Now if the love of your life broke your heart and you lost her forever, plus other serious problems in your life going on, etc, i can understand, severe depression can set in (I know from experience)

Speak for yourself.
I took it for years. It didn't make me feel better, it made me feel nothing at all. It may play all those other functions, primarily it helps you feel calmer.

Incidentally, there's plenty of discussions in the psychiatric community on these types of "normal" life experiences should be medicated. Precisely because there IS a cause ("don't interfere with natural healing processes"). There can be many triggers but a lot of the time you can't point to any single thing and say, "aha, we found the cause!"
Someetimes the question of medication or not can't be easy to answer, even for an "expert."
My aunt has been feeling low for years, is basically handicapped, in physical pain and has these crying fits. I gently approached the idea of antidepressant but it was a hard NO. I was like try it for a month and then just get off if it doesn't suit you, but it was a NO. Another aunt was "burnt out" and got anxiety reactions whenever she stepped into work.. She said the anxious feeling inthe pit of her stomach ent away after a could of months. Sides: sleepier and hungrier, but it was still worth it.

This doesn’t make sense……
Everyone is different, no? How can you look down at others because they may not have the same reasons as you to feel bad?
Some might say that “losing the love of your life” is an invalid reason to feel bad long term too.

Wes I'm older than a lot of the guys here but a couple years younger than you. You're posts are greatly appreciated by this little black duck, I look forward to them.
Without exception they are educational, entertaining, humbling or piss yer pants laugh out loud funny, often all things combined.
I saw an old interview with the late Rodney Dangerfield who said words to the effect that he'd trade everything, his comedic talent, his financial success, his fame, all for a better childhood. Don't ever discount the effect that can have on you. Anyone who has been there, they know and they don't question it. I feel your pain brother, but I also see the incredible strength and will to prevail.
Don't sell yourself short, and don't be afraid to reach out. I dunno wtf I can do here for you in Australia, but if something occurs to you, say it, because your posts, and those of some of the other long time posters are something I treasure.
In a modern world of pussified freaks, you are no doubt a dinosaur, but be proud of it there'll come a time when the pendulum swings and people will hope and pray for a hundred blokes like you.

Hey Wes
I thought this might help - it seems Scientists have worked out the species that has been around longer than any other - 600+ million years - so I figured you'd like to see one as you probably had one of these as a pet when you were a boy ;D
"Scientists from UCLA in America have discovered the oldest living creature on our planet
Experts have confirmed that it is a jellyfish-like organism called a ctenophore - also known as a comb jelly.
They first emerged up to 700 million years ago - a long time before dinosaurs, which only appeared around 230 million years ago"

I read that earlier today. I simply can't believe there are still vaccine or mask mandates anywhere nowadays!
Even medical/dental offices around me have dropped requirements of any kind.

Don't sell yourself short, and don't be afraid to reach out. I dunno wtf I can do here for you in Australia, but if something occurs to you, say it, because your posts, and those of some of the other long time posters are something I treasure.
In a modern world of pussified freaks, you are no doubt a dinosaur, but be proud of it there'll come a time when the pendulum swings and people will hope and pray for a hundred blokes like you.
WOW ..... this was a great fucking Post! 🤘

I read that earlier today. I simply can't believe there are still vaccine or mask mandates anywhere nowadays!
Even medical/dental offices around me have dropped requirements of any kind.
Screw it.....train in your house if you have to. Adapt and overcome.....Practice those strict curls right in front of the Mother-in-law!

Wes, my brother. You are a good man. I would not say as much were I not certain of it. We all have our faults and past problems. Those that most often bring up another person's past are those likely to have no future of their own and that being due to their inability to learn from their own past. They are the ones I speak of when I talk of those that refuse to learn from their errors and instead choose to be taught a lesson again and again.
A man can be brought to his knees by life but never by force. Even those made to kneel only do so with their legs but within their heart and soul they are still standing up for what is righteous.
Fuck these asspuppets here and in the real world who "feel" they are made better by being bitter with jealousy. In all ways and for always, be well my friend and brother.

What meds are you taking for your depression dips?

Wes

Kwon,I`ve taken tons of stuff over the years,none seem to help but I see my doctor next week and I`ll discuss it with her.
Also this bout of depression was insane,I`m never really happy except for fleeting moments, but my depression has subsided, (except for this bout) and now my Anxiety disorder is more prevelant that the depression.
I`m one fucked up individual ! :D

I've been told by a psychiatrist this is normal. You treat one issue and another one pops up. They are like layers in a way.
When I successfully treated my anxiety with meds years ago I got hit with a brutal case of ADD/ADHD... paying for shopping and leaving my card in the store, awful distractions while driving, etc

From a more existential perspective, I would say most of us are never really happy. Most people only have fleeting moments of happiness.
According to Otto Rank, the paradox of life is the happy moments are very short lived while the things that cause us pain or torment can last a lifetime. Think about it like this: how long does the satisfaction last after eating a good meal, having sex, drinking or being with friends? Few hours, if that. But then think about all the stuff that causes us pain: losing someone to death, breakups, trauma, etc; these things often last a very long time. It's perhaps a silly little game that life has played on us: make the enjoyable moments very short lived but the moments of pain/sorrow can last forever. Contemplate on this paradox and it may help you realize the futility of life, which actually can be a source of reawakening. With that in mind, we are always reaching out to be recreated, to be renewed (Soren Kierkegaard); it's an ongoing process that we constantly have to strive for renewal, as the future always lays just in front of us, waiting to be recreated, anewed, and that takes effort to constantly be grasping for what just lies in front of us; it takes a lot of effort to create ongoing meaning (Minkowski).

Boy,is that the truth!
I don`t expect to be prancing around doing joyful cartwheels all day singing "I feel pretty,oh so pretty" :D (YES BLATANT HOMO),but a little more balance between the two would be nice.
Great post brother.

Man up you whiny old fuck. ;D
Life is good, celebrate every day that you’re alive.
It’s not like you’re bald, weak, bleeding out your ass, and married to a chick that looks like a 10 year old boy. Hell, thank the Lord almighty that you aren’t the loser hiding in his mommy’s basement from the guy with the bloody shitpipe. Or worse yet, imagine being Shizzo!
Where have all the good men gone….

have you not looked into psilocybin?

Mentioned earlier in the thread.
Reading about an ongoing study where the subjects get two megadoses (25mg?) and then wear blinders to do a massive introspective, all supervised....apparently it's had great results.

I looked into it before most here were even born bro......never again will I get drunk or take any mind altering drugs except for a bit of Diazapam that is prescribed to me.
Did shrooms,window pane,blotter acid,sugar cubes mescaline etc. etc........been recovered around 25 years now......I`m the type who could do it once and drop it like a hot potato,or do it and never stop again.
Thanks any way brother but I`d rather be depressed in reality.....well not really,but it`s MY only option!

Might not help you get to Chicago though….
