Don't become this guy. If you're depressed, tell someone

idk man he seems like a pretty cool dude

He kills himself after giving his daughter an incredible vacation as a goodbye gift.

why is his daughter his age and chinese

tell someone

they are empathetic at first but the longer they try to rationalize your depression and to fail at cheering you up through practical means the more tired they get of your bullshit

eventually they start distancing themselves from you unless you start pretending that you are feeling better

talking about your depression is bullshit and a trap, learning to live with it on your own or killing yourself are the only proper ways to deal with it

You have to talk to a therapist, someone who has actual training in helping people out of deep holes. Anons will tell you it's a meme but the data speaks for itself.

I did try a couple of different ones (and even a psychiatrist) but it didn't work out for me, not that I regret the experience (exluding the pills, which did nothing for me). People say that it might take a lot of tries to find the right therapist for you but the search felt too draining to me, thankfully eventually I managed to get quite a bit better on my own. Still I'd advise anyone in a similar situation to at least try talking to a psychologist, nothing to loose other than some time and money

Character is shown to have an absent father

Becomes a lesbian dyke with severe mental issues

Wtf did the director mean by this

Took me four tries to find one I liked. Male psychs have been the only ones I can talk to. Good to hear you've made progress by yourself. It's not easy.

Even woke artists can see reality for what it is, if they're any good.

that does work for a lot of people, but the people in this thread and main character in aftersun are severely damaged people who need lots of work and they usually don't have the money or means to achieve it

Tell someone

No one wants to hear men complain.
No one cares.

Dude put your trust into someone you pay to hear you complain, also he will medicate you.

Why not? What's wrong with making someone happy with money and then killing yourself really? Even if you have a daughter her teachers and her eventual boyfriend are going to pick up the slack you leave.

Cuck mentality; not out of place for this board.

I'm not a woman, is anyone really going to give a shit?

Male psychs have been the only ones I can talk to

sadly all the ones in my area seem to be women, I bet that's a significant reason for why therapy didn't work out for me. Maybe I should have tried through video calls but that sounds pretty awkward

This is me except I can't actually kill myself until they're quite a bit older. I couldn't live with myself if I did it while they're still kids.

I couldn't live with myself

because you'd be dead

you don't see this movie with a black lead because they aren't as soft

also because black fathers dip out after their crotch spawn is born

Not him but it's clear that for the time being the want to be around for them overpowers his want to kill himself.

the black suicide style is doing drugs and crime until you get shot by another nigger or the police

i can sum up therapy in one sentence

"pull yourself together"

thats it, thats therapy
thats what licensed, actual psychotherapists (MDs) tell people, thats what they get money for, thats what theyre trained to do
noone can help you but yourself, therapy is a meme for women with no actual problems to talk about how hard their life is

tbf if you are stupid there's a chance that a psychologist will be able to make you notice something about yourself that you were otherwise blind to, but if you can muster even a shred of introspection on your own you probably won't learn anything new from therapy

it's funny when guys tell me they're depressed because they have no girlfriend. like dude, man the fuck up and just get a hooker and focus on improving your life instead of worrying about some hole lol

nta but yeah when I got offered a few to choose from by my insurance, like only 1/4 out of them was a man
my general physician had already told to pick a guy cause it's way easier for men before she deferred me to therapy though and she was a pretty wise old granny so I already had a heads up
my therapist does video calls too but I haven't done any with him cause I had the same feeling, but he told me it feels like that at first until you get used to it specially if you've been going in person already

>You have to talk to a therapist, someone who has actual training in helping people out of deep holes.

Will he give me money?

/tv lured me to watch this movie with cunny posting, but it wasn't about that ((

I am sharing a board with people who can't self reflect without help

Lmao, ngmi

I'm just really fucked in the head about being a virgin, therapy won't help.

it's more likely than you think, I assume that about every anon I interact with just to err on the safe side
just go and have sex then

THIS IS OUR LAST DANCE

This film was ass bruh. Instagram poetry and Tumblr journals. No wonder it was made by a w*man, and overrated by other arthoes.

you have to talk to a therapist while...
genuinely wanting to improve your life and situation and knowing it'll take years to do it
at the end of the day, depression, real depression, is something that require serious effort on your part to escape, regardless of help from others
people can't save you if you don't want to save yourself

Therapy is hubris, we don't understand how our minds work and trying to force something can also lead to disaster. In most cases just trying to stay as healthy and socialized as you can is enough to keep it manageable. Not to mention it's fucking expensive

socialised

I know you probably meant it in the (incorrect) sense of "lol hang out with some friends or something lmao" but socialisation is pretty much a cause of most mental health problems. Therapy is also the ultimate expression of oversocialisation.

we don't understand how our minds work

yes we do lol, if you study the art of therapy you can actually learn quite a lot about how people work and how to manipulate them

that's all surface level shit, there's a big difference between convincing retards to buy your shitty product and fixing someone's mental illness

My doctor recommended I go to a therapist and he ended up calling my parents and then my parents had me committed to a halfway house

I've started therapy again recently because my doctor said they won't keep seeing me unless I try again. Literally all they do is say "have you tried taking deep breaths and counting to 10 when you're stressed?" or to just outright avoid anything that does make you miserable which isn't always possible obviously. After each session I always go to the pub and drink like 5 pints to myself because it's so mentally draining.

lmao what an asshole doctor covering his legal ass, most will actually tell you not to make shit up to the psychiatrists about wanting to hurt yourself unless you actually do it, cause some idiots think that will get them a therapist assigned quicker

Pure kino, that scene.

Aren't there therapists who handle exactly this issue?

yeah you can even find them and hire their services on the streets in some places, although the good ones are more expensive than the average therapist

Why? It wouldn't actually change anything.

If you're depressed, just lift weights, do SS & GOMAD, wake up at 4AM in the morning, listen to podcads and learn to invest.

you don’t have real depression if you masturbate

within touching distance of a woman

she doesnt look concerned by his presence

depressed

just find someone to convince fit that you're life doesn't suck and eating shit is actually a good thing

Therapy would never work on people with real problems

you just need to find the right therapist who is good for you

some prefer big credentials but others are fine with diplomas or many years of practice

please dont

elaborate on that

you wouldn't have a libido if you were depressed beyond recovery anon

tell someone

so we can send you to grippy sock jail and give you drugs

it’s funny how people phrase holds as “getting them the help they need” when it’s usually incredibly traumatic and awful and is not helping a person.
It’s kidnapping a person to make sure they don’t kill themselves or others. That’s it. It’s not help. It’s theoretically meant to be a last resort to stop those outcomes. Getting put on a hold does not somehow mean the person starts attending regular therapy. If you put the wrong person on a hold, you actually on balance ruin their life rather than save it, just because of how traumatic the experience is and the loss of trust in people

Oh no, I have a loving daughter and a good enough economy to take her on vacation halfway across the world, I better kill myself

Do white people really?

annual suicides per 100k people in Norway: 14.1

annual suicides per 100k people in Bangladesh: 3.85

the more your basic needs are taken care of the more likely you are to overthink about shit and to eventually become suicidal

Kill yourself you evil Jew scum

child abuse is so cool!

Kill yourself

He kills himself

Only positive thing evil trash like "him" could do. If only everybody involved with this evil "movie" actually died

watching a child abuse "movie"

Kill yourself
Kill yourself

child abuse is so cool

what child abuse? Are you the anon that's super autistic about smokers?

he was having money issues because he overspent, and she even humiliated him for it when he tried her to buy an expensive carpet

what child abuse?

Why ask question you clearly already know the answer to?
Kill yourself

What if I'm depressed because hot women don't want to fuck me?

calm down, old friend. It's been a while since I've seen the movie, does the dad ever smoke near his daughter?

Don't reply to the schizos

Why is it always the same anon in those threads who spergs out about second hand smoking?

start lifting

Kill yourself

does the dad ever smoke near his daughter?

Literally the first scene. Because that is all this "movie" is it, it is child abuse and an advertisement for smoking
Kill yourself

morality is INSANE

Every single time with you Jews. You cannot defend your evil do you accuse every moral person of insanity
Kill yourself

second hand smoking

Does not exist. Breathing smoke is breathing smoke
Kill yourself
