If most are like me, then it matters because it's a normal part of the human condition and not something to be, or can be, treated.
I want anonymous strangers to engage with me in abstract discussion because I find such talk interesting. The talk itself is the fun thing. It's not about anything else beyond. It just intrigues me that there doesn't seem to be a definition of loneliness that doesn't just boil down to boredom, IMHO. __________________ male hetero (GNC/CD phases) inorganic psychesexual (objectum spectrum) |

people suffering from depression aren’t necessarily sad all the time. Lack of interest in anything and not enjoying life is one of the other sings. I think you can see from this forum that, no, majority of people aren’t always miserable. So I’d take that concept out of equation and focus on your own suffering and roots of it

I'm not convinced that this forum provides enough evidence to overturn my life experience and many thousands of people known, both Irl and online, regarding most people being somewhat miserable. I'm happy to accept that plenty aren't, at any one time, all that miserable.
It's interesting that depression might be something other than what I though it was, though. So, if I'm bored most of the time, but not actually feeling very sad or depressed, that is still depression? How is depression then different to boredom? And can such depression simply be cured by having lots to do, then? __________________ male hetero (GNC/CD phases) inorganic psychesexual (objectum spectrum) Last edited by FooZe; Aug 01, 2019 at 02:17 PM..

I don’t think we can or should diagnose people online, we can just suggest some ideas that many of us already did. To obtain diagnosis and proper treatment, you’d have to see a medical professional irl.
