Battling Depression as an unemployed man in 2020 

Appreciate the positive message and courage to raise awareness. Depression and Anxiety is an invisible enemy and is generally overlooked time and time again. Stay strong and keep your head above water, while anxiety and depression isn't something that we can just make go away, it is something we can learn to understand and control.

I like your video and feel a lot of empathy for you, partly cos I am going through something similar right now. I just want to reach out and give whatever encouragement I can....... hang in there.

Laughter, just say I'm depressed out loud. It might disappear. Showers. TV.

12 months ago I was living the high life driving around liverpool on crystal meth every day in a bmw full of prostitutes. I still worked full time as an engineer. My fiancé was one of the prostitutes so Money was there to blow. Until the day I got caught. I had lost my car, my job, my family, my friends, my life savings, custody of my son, my house, about 30kg of weight from the 18 month heavy meth addiction . I got nothing left and don’t have or trust a single person due to the horrendous abuse that I’ve suffered. If there’s a definition of feeling alone I am that. I could go weeks without having to use my voice to speak to someone. I’ve been unemployed since November sitting still in deep depression. I’m about 7 weeks clean or the meth now, it got awful to where I was speaking to shadow people in my house and was in complete psychosis. I had Several cases of self mutilation and one suicide attempt. Arrested multiple times, done things that can’t be spoken about to anyone. Terrible things that I would never have ever been able to bring myself to do hadn’t I been strung out on meth and paranoid about my prostitute ex fiancé. I was only 25 when this all was going on. This shit has damaged me for life and not a single person is there to listen to my story’s

I know what itś like to be depressed about being unemployed. If you have been raised to think of yourself as a breadwinner, being unemplyed cuts to the core of your selfworth as a man. I try to fill the void with study , long walks and volunteer work. i think you should continue with uploading, if only to ensure that you have a purpose in life. An idle mind is a devilś workshop

I subscribed to your channel! Don't give up on this. You have a lot to say. 💗💗

Keep the content rolling, loved it!!

1) thanks for sharing. I promise you're not alone and I've got to a point where getting out of bed 1x/month is extreeemely hard and I'm stuck living w parents who don't (want) to understand mental health. I can't think of a bigger 180 in my life..from traveling, friends, career/student, gf, and parties to community/volunteer programs etc to getting a panic attack if my phone rings (since all my friends died, it's imo nothing good ) but im trying to change it and its been a trip bc u have to make peace w some days being downers while others can be great..how ru doing lately?

2) whaaat? There's a men's group?? Where does this exit and what does it contain..thanks

Oh my, I suppose depression happens in rich countries as well!
