> I've been in states where I was so frantically doing everything I could think of to defeat my depression that I induced way more dysphoria because I was constantly beating myself up for not doing more or different things. Depression is great for inducing binds like that.
Yes, I've had the same thing happen many times. I would run myself into the ground with endless activity, attempting to chase my depression away, or move at insane speeds to try to out run it.
Neither one worked. It's not something I can outrun or beat into submission. I had to change my approach.
