Well I haven't found one that works yet so probably
Adrian Edwards

Parker Flores
user if you want to climb out of depression you need stop depending on video games to feel good
Colton Gray
hunting in rdr2
turning off saves and killing all the black people in saint denis with shotguns
Matthew Gutierrez
playing video games won’t solve you being depressed.
it’ll only delay it.
Nicholas Phillips
Nathan Reyes
FES
Xavier Long
Are all your graphics settings set to low? What are your specs?
Jace Hughes
>millions of people worldwide that actually suffer from depression relying on medicine
>one anonboi gets cured by vidya
Camden Stewart
I have literally nothing else in my life to fall back on
Hunter Walker
I have a gtx 970, so mostly everything is on low except textures because for some reason RDR2 on anything but Ultra textures makes everything absolutely god awful to look at
Adam Hall
The game called "take anti-depressants and stop whining on Zig Forums you fucking tard"

I've taken at least half a dozen different types which don't work

Daniel James
even then my gps is around 30-40 most of the time
I'm trying to save off to get a 3060 or something when they release
Connor Evans
Video games won't help with that.
Especially if you're directly using it as a form of escapism.
Carter Reyes
Is it physical pain? I feel like my chest is hollow.
Kayden Wilson
The joke is that Persona 3 is centered around depression.
Mason Kelly
Start by changing that, dumb dumb
Nathaniel Sanders
Oh okay
Colton Long
If you can afford it, pick up a VR set, and grab Beat Saber.
Moving around and getting some movement into your life is scientficially proven to improve mood a little bit. And even just changing the environment from your cramped room to a less cramped room can help with that. Won't cure the depression, but it'll give you some dopamine without forcing you to go outside or do boring old gym shit
Dominic Clark
Going outside. Out of a city and being alone in nature for an hour or two.
Zachary Nguyen
Ending your life can make the sadness go away.
Jason Roberts
Stop making these threads ffs
Jeremiah Perry
Play Animal Crossing IRL
Pick some trash up in your room and move stuff about. Take a vaccum and clean the underside of your vidya desk and behind your computers to clean the dust out. Rearrange your room for fun.
Depression is a chemical imbalance in the brain, something you need to do something physical to alleviate. Most games probably won't help you get out of depression, only distract from it.
Asher Wood
But then you upset the people around you. Imagine being the sorry motherfucker who has to find your body.
Nathan Cooper
this but save the money and just do some jumping jacks or burpees (pushup from the knees if you can’t do full one)
video games aren't gonna pick you up, in fact if you’re browsing this board there’s a solid chance it’s partly the cause (overusing what once provided comfort will just make your mental state worse)
focus on building little bastions of stability and routine into your life. get up at the same time every day, eat a proper breakfast rich in protein and fat, take walks while listening to great music (video game ost if you like)
these are stepping stones to the only thing that will truly buffer you against the suffering and pain of life, having a skill or trade you can hone and develop that ia meaningful to YOU. you need a purpose, above all else, and as a nice by product you’ll sharpen up yourself at the same time, as well as build self respect (because you do things worthy of respect).
godspeed, OP, I love and believe in you
Nathan Brown
I may be severely mentally ill but at least I'm not a tripfag.
Julian Brooks
Exercise and eat healthier. Learn an instrument, like exercise you can constantly better yourself, and it's fun. Honestly staring at a flashing box isn't healthy at all.
Ryan Clark
this is truth. your mind is a part of your body, take care of it, treat yourself as someone valuable and worthy of respect, develop yourself, and you will be amazed at how far you can go.
Kayden Foster
Mega Man and Persona have helped me through hard times
Luke Ward
good taste
good doujin
Bentley Harris
pain of existance
