sounds like it was the Monster™ Zero Ultra™ that fixed things (which you can purchase here)
A lot of people are depressed because they’re fixated on the negativity. You’d be surprised how much going outside, exercising, or even just doing simple things like taking a nice cold shower or cleaning up your room can help.
Obviously it’ll be different from person to person but generally, setting a small goal and accomplishing that goal will make you feel better.
Even just setting aside time to express gratitude can really turn things around. I have my kids do this, and that alone can turn them from being hugely negative to happily going to bed more-or-less on time.
It obviously can’t cure all forms of depression, but recognizing things that you’re grateful for can really improve your general outlook. It’s the indoor version of touching grass.
Some ppl just wierd like that. Even on the hottest days I cant stand cold showers, always shower hot.
And some like me prefer a long hot bath. That feeling of being a part of the primordeal soup once again, cutting the middle-monke. Can’t have any complex problems if you are a mere microorganism. That’s liberating. Shower is clever, operational, you can take it fast, frequent times a day if you need so, but it’s these moments I know I’d never have a shower stall in spite of it’s practicality and size. Bonus points on finishing it with a colder shower to assemble oneself once again.
I live in the south and it’s fairly warm year round. We get like 3 months of kinda cold weather and that’s it. Summers are BRUTAL though.
Anyway, I got off methadone treatment almost 2 years ago, and have been in a depression funk ever since. But, I found something to keep me going. I go “fishing”.
I get my tackle, my rods, and my bait, and pack it all in my backpack. I grab a machete, and my Kelly kettle (if it’s cold) along with food and water. I then hike through the woods to a fishing spot and sit there. I catch some fish and spend some time alone with my thoughts. My situation allows me to do this 2 to 3 times a week.
Honestly, I don’t even care if I catch anything. I just really like being alone. It’s been so nice now that it’s kind of cold. I boil some water in my Kelly kettle and make herbal tea while I’m fishing. It’s the best.
That’s the trick about fishing. You’re not there to catch dinner, just chill and enjoy for a while with the potential upside of catching dinner so you feel you’re doing “something”.
When i fish i just catch and release. Fishing is about fishing for me. Not the result. I feel bad for the fish though. They get a hook in their mouth, gets dragged up, i say “Hey there buddy” and then they go home. I wonder what they tell to their family.

Most of them probably die from their injuries.
I’ve been doing a lot of catch and release lately. I have a freezer full of bass, catfish, and panfish. I’m lucky that I live close to river with no restrictions on how much you can eat due to pollution. So, I save up and invite this couple over that I’m friends with and do a big fish fry every so often. Food has gotten so expensive that fishing really helped this past year.
Though I will say. The older I’ve gotten the harder it is to kill fish. I find myself throwing back a lot of fish that I would have kept on the past.

You should maybe be inviting people you hate.
Exercise works. Drug my ass out of bed, didn’t want to. Drug my kids down the street, off into the local woods to the creek. They didn’t want to.
3-hours later and everyone is happier and healthier. Had a blast, kids learned some life lessons. Imagine that.

Great, fucking product placement is making it into the depressing 4chan memes.
