@GeistInTheMachine When I'm depressed even those won't put me to sleep, but since hes not me, he should try them.
or weed. weed puts me to sleep no matter what.

@nonsensiclesnail seasonal depression makes for rough days :(

@RIPKAW yes, yes it does. Have you tried getting a full spectrum light for your house, or desk, or bathroom, or somewhere you spend a lot of time? They really do help.

@nonsensiclesnail I have tried many things. Currently going through many med changes to see if that can help. I will have to look into that! I have tried mood lights, but those didn't work

@RIPKAW Has to be full spectrum, they mimic sunshine. I believe they are the same as grow lights. I buy some for my dad every winter and they make him less miserable. I think if he had them in more than one spot in his house, they would work better.

@nonsensiclesnail are they expensive? Thank you for taking the time to try to help me by the way. I truly appreciate your kindness

@RIPKAW They can be, if you are buying the ones that claim to be for mood enhancement. But not so much if you are buying the ones intended for plants. Not that they are cheap, but its a difference of 6 bulbs for 22 dollars VS 1 bulb for 22 dollars

and Im happy to. We all need a hand in finding our way sometimes. And depression is a killer.

@nonsensiclesnail people like you give me hope that I'm not alone. I keep hoping for better tomorrow's, but nothing has changed for me in a long while

@RIPKAW I believe a lot of people care, they just dont know what to do, dont want to be a bother to anyone, and dont want to put themselves in a position to be depended upon because they're broken too.
I hope things do start to change for you. For me that is one of my hardest hurdles, is changing my own habits and outlook enough to see the change that is passing me by. I get so self centered and focused on me that I dont see the opportunities, or worse, what to do with them or even care when they come along.

@nonsensiclesnail hey do you want to be friends? I'm scared to even ask this. I've never really had many friends, and I don't even really know how to make friends

nonsensiclesnail · F

@RIPKAW Me either, so this works. 😁
