Notes -
Perhaps not a small question, but I'm curious if folks here have dealt with depression/anxiety and if so, how have they turned it around or alleviated symptoms?
Looking mostly for success stories.
Depression: I think a major factor was having a job where I had to put on a fake face. The mind affects the body and the body affects the mind. Smile, and it will trick the treacherous mind into being happier. Though, that job also involved organizing stacks of heavy boxes, so it was simultaneously good exercise and a constant source of satisfaction for my 'tism tendencies.
For anxiety, the only solution I know if is to brazen through. Exposure therapy. IME, it really doesn't take that much.
Yeahhhhhh I have worked in sales and marketing my whole career and I think that is a big contributor. How did you get out of that situation?
