Ask HN: Depression

3•hnthrow10282910•1h ago
I stopped caring about my job a while ago. I’ve become somewhat numb and withdrawn due to a mix of substance abuse, overworking, poor sleep and poor cognition habits due to AI usage.

For those who have gone through this mental exhaustion, what has helped?

take a pause, reflect on your life and your purpose, believe in your creator and why he created you

Professional help, medication. Please get some help, and I hope you feel better.

All those things are contributing to depression and also likely to cause each other and be caused by depression.

You should get a professional who can spend a good hour or two listening to more details of your situation in order to actually help you, as otherwise you'll get a lot of people saying "well stop abusing substances, work less, sleep more, and definitely don't use AI outside work hours", which will work as well as telling an obese person to just eat less.

I know it sounds cliche, but exercise. And medication. Most importantly, you need to stop whatever substance you’ve been abusing. Those only ever make things worse.
