Yeah, you're on meds, you're depressed I can sympathise man, I really can and I'm not saying that it's easy to get out from where you are, because it's not. Thing is you need to have something to work towards or some other psychology cr*p, IDk, I'm not an anthropologist. Seriously, being happy is worth it.Remember, it's dangerous to mope alone, take this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfpyoGFJ ... re=related

Hey, this is drunk friend advice! Go to any pub and they'll tell you that drunk friend advice is never wrong(well, until the next morning) Retrospectively though my playful pushyness may have been more along the lines of actual pushyness so sorry, sweetleaf, best intentions and all.

Another one. And they keep coming. Enough I say!

Someone else can come in 'n say drinking is bad for you. No argument from me.

Mate, I'm trying to stop being mopey and depressed, I'm in absolutely no state to have a discussion, let alone a cognitive one and I'm enjoying feeling upbeat and euphoric, shoot me.

I posted a thread like this and got an amazing amount of hate.

Drunk friend advice? Ummm okay...

My guess is you think too highly of yourself hence your name lilbuddah but last I've checked, the real Buddha (you spelled your name wrong) isn't a drunk. His path to enlightment has been through suffering but finding peace. Some people need to vent in order to just let it out. You coming on here attempting to suppress because hey some of these people just aren't a happy drunk like you shows you lack compassion and sympathy which also makes your best intentions seem like just words tossed on the screen to make yourself look better.

In your profile it states you are diagnosed with aspergers. If you have no struggles, good for you but alot of people here do. There are very little places to go if you have autism. Most places are designed for parents who want help for their children or to talk about the struggles they have over their child.

Adults with autism have very limited resources or places to turn to support because they majority of people minimize our struggles much like you are displaying, put us down for thinking differently or just roll their eyes in general.

If your intentions are good, that is great but it doesn't come across as though you have an inside perspective of how those with autism do have depression, anxiety etc...

Me personally, I do not endorse drugs. I've been there and it didn't work for me. It may work for someone else but I've seen people come out of depression when they finally found someone they could talk to who actually has compassion and will listen plus provide some form of stimulation that helps the person come out of the depression.

Depression usually occurs for reasons. People treating you badly repeatedly, losing family members, lost your job, break ups, bad marriages, bad childhood. All of these are normal reactions yet the first topic that comes up is DRUGS.

How convenient.

Anyways, my original topic has trailed off. Lilbuddah, we all have our struggles whether autistic or not. I'm sure you do too. I've seen this in people like you. Minimize others with problems but the moment you have a problem you must let it out and others must pay attention.

Other than the gloomy scenarios that come with autism...it's not all bright. What I am happy about is my problem solving abilities and love of music. That is my bright side of autism. I also have set out to defy my own limitations and have had success. I still think If she or he can do it, so can I! This has led me into some out of character moments that did however let me know....okay this is really not my forte but I learn from trial and error picking up new knowledge from experiencing it.

When you are thought of as different. People often place limitations on you. Even after you've proven that limitation wrong, the person just pretends it doesn't happen. You didn't just do that nor could you do it again. When you prove otherwise, the person repeats. My advice is, stay away from those people because they already have their minds made up about what you are allowed to do and that you aren't allowed to accomplish anything. Those people will continuously drag you down and make you depressed.

Everyone needs support. Even us. It's just in the neurotypical society, they have more people to choose from that they can instantly connect with where as being in the minority, you don't. Then you are told how you lack empathy but notice neurotypicals struggle with putting themselves in others shoes and mock them instead.

Bullies are not put on drugs. The bullied are! This is basically saying the bullies are in the right for picking on you and causing you emotional distress.

This is backwards thinking in our society.

First of all lilbuddah is my mantle ((hardcore)gamer thing) based on a tiny buddha statue my parents put in my room when I was a kid(hence the misspell) second of all, I do have AS, I have been through all the negative stuff, infact I was just as dismal as anyone else when I joined here a few days ago, I'm just trying to say that people here are way too negative for a site that's supposed to be about support it's more one giant pool of self pity(which is, of course, a liquid) and I don't think that's right, there should be a few really upbeat people here and, from what I've read, there are. Anyway, that seems to make a decent amount of sense, onwards!

This lady is the cure to depression.
