How to take care of mental health?

Co-Founder

I have been battling depression from childhood when I didn't even know it was called that. I am trying to switch jobs, I got 1-2 offers as well but I am not happy at all. I stay at home with my parents and work currently. I fear moving to a new place for a new job all alone would be very hazardous for my depression maybe. I tried therapy multiple times, didn't work, tried yoga, reading books, meditation, yet nothing seems to work. I double doubt on myself working in the IT field as well and think I don't wanna do this, i don't know whether it's cos of my depression or me actually hating the field cos I felt bad during my college days as well in anything i did.

I think of offing myself to attain peace and come out of my head from all the overthinking all the time but I understand i can't cos I have to stay well for my mom and dad who love me the most

Anyone has any solutions (maybe proven ones) to this matter?

I.

Is there any way to tackle depression

Lately i have been struggling to cope up with my work and family . It’s been very difficult at my work lately. Also my personal life is a roller coaster mentally! I feel difficult to cope up. People at my work are sarcastic about my performance even though i am fulfilling all my basic tasks. I sleep very late thinking about all these things especially my personal struggles! How are you guys coping up?

How you guys are taking care of your Mental Health?

Desires and expectations hata do life se… 
 It takes very less to be happy…. 
 Itna kamao ki apni jaruratein puri ho jaye bas….aur job ko bhi utna hi time do bas 
  
 Rest time should go in pursuing hobbies and friends/family time…. 
  
 Paisa jitna bhi kama lo, hamesha kam hi lagega… 
 Isliye time nikalo apni hobbies/friends and family ke liye

What small things do you do daily to take care of your mental health?

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I'm a 90's introvert and my girlfriend is 20's extrovert. Recently we got a fight. One week ago a new boy joined her team. Whenever i went to saw her i brought a chocolate 2 days ago i went to saw her and i brought a dairymilk and i gave to her. Suddenly that boy grabbed that dairymilk then he gaved back and he git her, I get anger and possessive. I informed her when i reached home i don't like he grabbed the dairymilk and he touched you. What i expected from her was "okay this won't happen again i won't let anyone touch me" but what happened was, she pick up a fight i won't speak with anyone see anyone I'm blocking everyone and try to live alone. I begged for hours to calm her at last she said please don't control me and please let me live with freedom. I know she purely love with me but the same time i don't like she hanging with boys. What i do, do i need to change or how to handle this situation?

Has anyone's mental health been affected due to wfh or social isolation? How do you cope up? Don't tell me exercise, I do that or surround myself with nature .
How do you cope up with overthinking subconsciously

Social isolation !

Growing up as an introvert and not so social, don't like partying, clubbing.

How do introverts find life partners?

I was focusing on my career and just working - suddenly realised I don't have any good friends. I quit my job, in depression right now. I am also an introvert which makes it very hard for me to go to a public gathering. I also don't smoke/drink. How do I make new friends?

How do you make friends at the age of 33?

Friends are overrated, you dont need to. If you organically bond, good enough otherwise its fine. If you are married your partner makes uo for it for the most parts. 
  
 That being said to organically bond, you need to increase the surface area meaning you need to stumble into new people to make new friends.  For people like me its just colleagues and old school/college friends. 
  
 Anyhow at 33 you dont really make friends just acquaintance so its better to rebond with your old buddies which I am sure you must have lost touch with rather than finding new ones.

Lately, walking in the garden and watching birds chirp in the morning has become an underrated thing that I find deep happiness in. 

Even late night walks are becoming interesting with an ice-cream at hand and the wind blowing in my hair. 

What about you all?

[Thread] What are the little things you find happiness in?

Is it okay to be alone rather than being with guys I don't like. 

College friends are the worst I have ever had.

College life

I’m finally in Bengaluru and this city seems glitzy yet underdeveloped. What a weird dichotomy. 🫨

Grapevine folks: What are your weekend scenes?

An introvert staying alone here with no friends in the city.. would spend the weekend with myself either scrolling social media or sleeping!!

Assistant Manager

I’m a very private person and I was a bit confused whether I should write here or not, but anyway.

So, day before yesterday I was sitting on my chair after dinner and was thinking about my life and what the hell am I doing.

I realised that,
Saala bachpan se aaj tak race me hi bhaag raha hun. Pehle school me 1st, 2nd, 3rd aane ki race me. Then acche college milne ki race me. Then uske baad acchi job milne ki race me. Then uske baad agar ladki chahiye toh uske liye bhi ek race hai (Don’t have a gf, plz don’t take me wrong, it was a realisation)

My current daily routine is like this:
Wakeup everyday, write code, go gym, dinner, and then sleep and repeat this cycle everyday.

School ke dost peeche chhoot gaye, college ke dost apni life me busy ho gaye, colleagues se main zyada baat nhi karta and main akela padh gaya.

Feels like life is not intriguing anymore, it has no spark left. Its so painful to live everyday.

I feel like I don’t want to live any more, I want to die but I can’t cuz of 2 reasons.
1. I’m the only son of my parents.
2. If I die like this, then I won’t be able to come out from the birth cycle.

That’s it
🙏🏼

This week’s introspection

Bhai kaafi same lag raha hai. 
 Idk kaha rehte ho tum, kitna kamate ho, wagerah but ek baat bolunga - start walking. Kabhi main street pe walk lagao, kabhi subah, kabhi kahin. Hum Jo ek jagah baithke sochte hai, vo chalte chalte bhi soch hi sakte lekin kaafi nayi cheezein dekhne milegi. Kuch aisa milega Jo vapas layega interest, I hope aisa ho

What methods do you have for coping with anxiety?

I am sorry my first post was supposed to be an achievement or CTC /salary  but  will surely come back one fine day with it too.
Anyways, I'm just trying to ask: what helps you? In your deepest, darkest of times, when nothing is working? Forget antidepressants for a second! Besides those medicines, what are some things that make you less depressed? 

The reason why I'm asking is that I am depressed. I was diagnosed by a professional.  Meds I don't like because they end up making me feel 
a) more depressed 
b) not at all myself; 
c) give me other terrible side effects 
Took therapy, antidepressants and what not for insomnia still don't have the right way to handle.

I just wanted new ideas, nevertheless, in hopes of finding something that may actually do something. If you ever have been in depression and insomniac please comment thereby creating a "safe space" Can't we ? For saving one life.
Apologies for the long post but sometimes I just have to say it

Depressed & insomniac .what helped you other than medicines .If you ever have been in this phase, your one solution might help. Please create a safe space. Can't we ? Thanks wholeheartedly.

I have been recently diagnosed with mixed anxiety and mild depression by a psychiatrist and was prescribed medication. Also asked to exercise everyday and pursue my hobby of reading. Any other tips on how to handle depression better while I am on medication?
