Too depressed to cbt

[autisticalex]

I wanna jump or hang myself but I'm too depressed to even get dressed, if I had SN I would take it now.

I need someone to ship it to my house, even hanging myself in my room requires too much effort in looking into suspension hanging but Too low energy

I can relate.
There are days in which I wanna ctb but I just don't feel like doing anything. Also, I don't have the guts.
Although if you gave me SN, I would probably drink it during a bad day!

Hoping someone can DM me a seller that ships to UK

Yes, I know how you feel. I have the means right now, yet I don't have the motivation. I don't like putting a timeline on my expiry. Eventually, when life gets too difficult, I should be ready to catch that bus. There are just a few things that I need to put in place first.

Yep same,its one of the reasons people commit suicide when they start taking anti-depressants. They still feel like shit but suddenly they have enough motivation and energy to do something about it.

I want N,for some reason I dont like the thought of SN.

It's been a while, but I've read a theory once that depression, in this case, is a feature, not a bug. Meaning, it's an evolutionary mechanism for survival. In the context of what I read, the suggestion was about when someone suffered a setback or defeat, that the depression lowered motivation to do something reckless or drastic, forcing one to withdraw/retreat, so to speak, I guess to give time for reflection, and to plan a comeback of sorts. I don't remember if suicide was mentioned, but if that theory's correct, it wouldn't be much of a stretch to include depression as a form of SI in the removal of motivation to CTB.

I haven't read it, yet, but here's another article on the same subject, with the same thesis...

Does Depression Have an Evolutionary Purpose?

Some psychologists believe suicide and depression can be strategic.

Here's another one:

"Depression Starts with Immobilization"

"Eventually, if these modern triggers last long enough, the body decides it can't get away. Next comes immobilization which the body triggers to defend us. According to Porges, what we call depression is the cluster of emotional and cognitive symptoms that sits on top of a physiological platform in the immobilization response. It's a strategy meant to help us survive; the body is trying to save us. Depression happens for a fundamentally good reason."

We’ve Got Depression All Wrong. It’s Trying to Save Us.

Common wisdom says depression starts in the mind with distorted thinking. But newer models suggest depression starts when the body initiates a defense strategy to help us survive.

Good idea

And the lack of self awareness in mental illness could be a defence mechanism.

This is so interesting. I've been having similar thoughts and speculations lately. Thanks for sharing.

There are many impediments to suicide for me. My gutlessness prime among them. A close second to that would indeed be due to depression rendering me nothing more than a paralyzed corpse, who can't be motivated to do anything. If living is a constant hassle for me, why should death be any different? In my case, it merely compounds the already crushing weight of my survival instinct, leading to complete entrapment inside my shitty life. The doors of life and death are both closed to me, but at least the latter will open for me someday.

Fucking figures. The body is designed to keep on surviving no matter what. It'll use every dirty little trick in the book to keep someone from offing themselves, even if their existence is a permanently bleak nightmare. All that matters to the body is that you meet its needs for sustenance and be a good slave to your DNA. Your misery is irrelevant.

Well it seem like I've been playin' the game way too long/
And it seems the game I played has made you strong/
Well when the game is over, I won't walk out a loser/
And I know that I'll walk out of here again/
And I know that someday I'll walk out of here again/


But now I'm trapped, oh yeah!/
Trapped, oh yeah yeah!/

Yup. See THE SELFISH GENE by Richard Dawkins.
