Seriously though, just by skimming over your online presence for 5 minutes, I wish I was in your shoes.
You're an aspiring programmer that seems to have had an at least somewhat early start with coding going to one of the best CS schools in the country. You haven't even graduated yet and you've already scored an internship from an awesome software company. I envy you.
The "meaning" of your life is what you make it and it seems like you are in an excellent position to have complete control over your future. This is fairly rare and so valuable, don't let depression take that away.
- MarkPNeyer 15y agoyour advice isn't much different from telling a man with no legs to 'man up' and start walking. depression is not a sign of weakness. if anything, publicly expressing your emotions and the struggles you go through shows real strength, especially when compared to hiding from your pain.
- keeptrying 15y agoDepression is different man - its not something you can "will" away. At a certain point on the downward slope of depression its hard to fix without medication. I liked your slides. :) Thats the kind of advice I dish out - more because my dad was in the Navy and thats what I used to receive from him. But the truth is, it doesnt help in anyway when your trying to support/help someone who is depressed. Truth is you could have the best career, a loving girlfriend and $300K in the bank and you could still be depressed. Its got nothing to do with his external life - its an internally (biologically) created situation.
