Interesting take on depression

Actually, it depends. I knew about a pickup/social skills program where you start just asking for hours on the streets, looking cashiers in the eyes and asking how is the day going, basic stuff.. You would progressively levelling up like a game from noob to master

It is just the beginning. Pickup is to attract woman, It is really different to develop long-term relationships skills but it helps.

I'll always try to approach things from a systemic/holistic perspective (self-help, diet, exercise, science, spirituality, religion, technology, consciousness work). I don't believe in a silver bullet or one-size-fits-all solution.

I don't think that you just had a feeling 1x and then you are depressed out of nowhere. As I said, I think depression is something more profund than just a specific feeling on a specific timestamp. It is like a belief, a hidden POV, something that you exist as, persist as some form + physical conditions. Feeling sad or apathic is not depression. If people say they are depressed everytime they feel sadness, we would have a general pandemic of depression on the entire world. Real depression is terrible. People can't even wake up from bed. I think you are being reductionist on your perspective. We all know Ralston says that we can stop things out of nowhere but I would not generalize this principle.

I think understanding is a deeper form of knowing. Knowing is superficial. Knowing is a mental activity. Understanding requires both insight and practice. Mastery is a even deeper form of understanding. Knowing -> Understanding -> Mastery

I think depression is a unspecified term. There is a lot of baggage projected on this word. I don't like this word. Also, I don't think you can be depressed so easily. Depression is a constant state of apathy + suicidal thoughts + a lot of other things.

There is a tendency to hold depression as a normal thing nowadays. No amount of meditation or letting go would replace vitamin B or vitamin C.

Disagree on this. Depression is a web of feeling states, behaviors, POVs, physical conditions, emotional conditions, breathing patterns, eating paterns. I think it is much more serious than just feeling or emotion.

Also, let these strings go away - INFP, INTP, ABCD, FFHI, Stage This, Stage That. Stop creating bullshit to limit yourself.

Depression is a serious case of a disorderly mental activity + physiology. These days everyone wants to have something. PTSD was something that only war veterans had,

No. Feeling sad, angry, melancholic - YES. Depression is a constant dark feeling states where your life is dominated by loss of energy, motivation, libido, perspective.

Can you be on a depressive happy state? Teach me how to be depressed. Get specific on the structure of depression then you can break it every time it arises or you just stop doing it.

Ramana farming aura,

All his books are worth to read 😉

@Natasha Tori Maru I think I know what it is. I have this experience from day 1 on the forum. Instead of trying to log again, click on a forum section (Consciousness /Dating/Off-Topic - whatever) and you will be immediately logged on again. Test to see if my assumptions are right 😉

It seems what Hawkins talks about on Letting Go. (Book)

Is it a co-creation process? If you are God, do you believe in a pre-scripted life? Before you were born, Actualized.org was already a reality. Do you believe in a specific destiny for each human?

Got it. Is it a more nuanced agency/free will? I will have to contemplate.
