It's kinda exhausting though. Especially if you have been depressed for a long time it takes A LOT of effort and mental discipline to keep your thoughts clean and imagination positive. I wish we could just be saved by another force. Like, take some off the responsibility off. That has never really worked for me though. Kinda tiring.

Of course, we all want to be saved, thats why religion is so external, because we have to believe that the eternal daddies and mommies will pick us up and punish people for hurting us. But thats the truth Neville teaches, there are no external mommies and daddies. The only eternal divine being is within us. Anything else is just manifestation of these ideas we have about reality. And so the only way to survive this world is to purify ourselves. I get the whole depressed thing, everything can seem impossible, but if you leave it that way then you will quite literally be that way until you die. Even if it seems futile, you have to find that vision of yourself that reflects your deepest desire and wish. If you can imagine even that, then you will save yourself. Everything you described tells me you were hoping for the lottery to save you. The lottery wont save you. You could win a million and still stuff a gun in your mouth a couple year later. And you'll say well atleast I got to be rich. But did you? Lets say you meet the girl of your dreams but because you hate yourslef you never get to enjoy her love or the relationship and so you lose her, did you really gain anything but more pain? 

This is why Neville says there is no one change but self. And its not thinking you are this amazing chad, its being willing to see yourself as someone who can just get up and live a life, and have a reason to smile. Thats way better than what you currently have.

Damn anon you're speaking truth,
>Lets say you meet the girl of your dreams but because you hate yourslef you never get to enjoy her love or the relationship and so you lose her
This shit happened to me. Change must to be made first, within mind and emotions, changing beliefs and assumptions. That's what I've learned so far.
