had to create a helpful positive thread for down NTers

[elcatfisho]

I don't want to make this sound like a blog post, but a while back I had some depressing **** to share with NT, so I wanted to come back and post something more uplifting for you all to read. I was suicidal for the past few months and started getting help through therapy after checking myself in to the hospital. Dealing with emotions and thinking issues I've never really taken some time to work on. It sounds odd to "work" on my issues, but it makes sense.

Past few days have been great. I've been able to get back into the gym, and the girl I was talking to still likes me, wants to know what I'm doing even after she visited me in the hospital. I don't want to say I'm simping on her by any means, but I definitely feel good about looking forward to talking to her. I"m also reconnecting with friends, making plans, looking forward to ****, and getting **** done. Before I got help, I was unable to do ****. Dirty clothes, dishes, trash, all that **** wasn't taken care of. I was struggling hard this past semester, and was being really hard on myself. Depression has a tendency to dismantle you slowly until you realize that you aren't happy with anything.

I'm off to go do some more stuff, but please if you are struggling with any issues, go get help. You won't find happiness in drugs, you can't change your past, you can't change people around you, but you can do yourself a favor by seeking help one day at a time. It is cliche, but it does get better. You won't want to hear it, but you'll be glad you did when you stick through it.

That's all NT.

P.S. Go Buckeyes

EDIT: Since so many of you supported what I had to say, I just want to say thank you. And I will add a positive post to the thread every day. I'm doing this for myself and also to maybe help y'all maybe understand or see what positive behavior can be like. I have some interesting ideas!

Yup yup.

Any NT'ers who feel depressed, please realize NT is a community but a brotherhood first. We clown on our own of course, but, the brotherhood stays committed to uplift each other. You would be hard-pressed to find an NT'ers let alone a human being who isn't depressed at one point or another. While clinical depression is a significantly more dangerous beast, help is out there and it can change things for the better for you.

The best thing you could do when your feeling down is reach out.

GL to peoples who hit that bottom. Coming back to the top takes work, but it is soooo much easier than your thinking leads you to believe.

such a relevant thread, i've suffered with clinical depression off & on for years, even tried to take my own life 2 times, through the help of therapists i've got the help i needed, i've suffered more lows than highs, but realize now that it is truly one day at a time with depression. people think i'm joking when i say this, but the camera lens saved my life, it helps me express myself in ways my intj personality would otherwise not be able to, stay strong, remain vigilant, & never suffer in silence like i did, namaste.
