Things are becoming more depressing every day and I can't afford for professionals and don't want to jump to the last resort or drugs. Is there a medicine that can make me happy if I take it in proper doses and does not require a doctor's prescription?

    All the people saying exercise... I swear that has to vary across people. I went to the gym thrice a week for two years and hated every gd second of it.

      It really does seem to very considerably. I know a guy that's addicted to running and will just do it all weekend, because he starts and doesn't want to stop. I've never gotten a buzz from physical activity of any kind.

      I was going to the gym before getting laid off. Gym helped me with my mental health.

      I am sorry it didn't work out for you.

        going to a sweaty gym and being bored and miserable?

        Going to the gym isn't exactly like this. It helped me a lot with my mental health but I am in a position now where I can't resume it, so that's why I am considering the medicines temporarily.

          Please reread this chain, I'm replying to someone who literally said they hated every second of it, if you hate the gym you don't have to go and there are plenty of other things to do.
