Oh that’s me. I’m tired and bored so I’ll share my story.
I was “depressed” because of working an abusive toxic job and commuting 2 hours a day for dimes. While at the same time spending my free time in the doomerism of r/fvckcars
Filled out the doctor’s questionaire and was diagonised with anxiety, and depression. I even had the bottle of pills before the hour was even over.
Lost the job, and swapped my pass-time from pessimistic r/fvckcars to more optimistics YouTube/notjustbikes
No more depression, never needed those anti-depressants because it was never a proper chemical depression.
To many doctors just want to medicate the symptoms and never bother to consider the sickness underneath.
I practice polyphasic sleep and reducing blue light is pretty important there to avoid messing your circadian rhythm.
The community recomends wearing the orange laser protection glasses, the same ones laser cutter operators use. Because that’s what glasses actually have to look like to filter blue light.
