  • It felt miraculous. I suffered from depression for years, nothing helped. But these four natural things cured my depression, almost miraculously, and within days. It was unbelievable, and virtually free. I know many people need to hear this. If it worked for me, it can work for others.

      @@mkuc6951 Not necessarily. I understand what you mean, but... despite having good intentions, family and friends can become toxic and, even worse, can be directly linked to your depression. Some roads are better walked alone. On the other hand, if being alone is what's stopping you from getting better, and no matter how hard you try you realize you just... can't, then you should of course reach out and ask for help. A good friend you really, really trust would probably work better than family. Families are... complicated... lots of stuff going on. Even if you're lucky enough and your family is, let's say, stable and caring, their extremely objective position can be detrimental (I'll say it again, despite their good intentions).

    For me, anti-depressants treat the symptom, not the cause.
    Sunshine, exercise, working to improve your personal situation, be it fixing things that are broken, tidying the house, washing the car. Signs of progress that don't allow a rut to form. It all promotes a positive mind-set, and allows clarity to recognise if there are any real problems that need tackling.

    Every single thing you mentioned work absolutely. They don’t teach any of these things as a primary solution to depression in school or elsewhere. Once I started working out my legs every other day my energy level, testosterone, mood, character and work ethic improved. Even going through a divorce I was able to keep calm and handle it without going insane. Exercise, sunshine, daily routine, healthy diet and projects made me who I’ve always meant to be.

    2. Sleep from 9pm to 5-6am
    3. Lots of iodine (25-100mg) daily
    4. Eliminate stress: leave your job, leave the people, find what you love

    I've been suffering from depression for 11 years now (32 at the moment) and for me, there is no relief. I work as a teacher, and interacting with children usually helps, but what I'm currently going through can only be described as pure hell that I wouldn't want any soul on earth to ever experience. It's not without a cause and it's not irrational, but brought about by my own faults and indifference in relation to a person that holds a special place in my heart. I'm afraid there is no going back now and what's in store for me seems to be even more suffering that only God can alleviate, be it through a miracle or death. If there's anybody reading this comment that can relate, I pray that God grants you the strength to wade the storm and find peace and joy.

      You have to keep trudging through the mucky muck before you can feel on solid ground again. You say that interacting with kids helps and thats because its hard to feel sorry for yourself when you feel useful. Youre beating yourself up over losing someone that you feel you lost due to your behavior. So you can sit in that sorrow or you can work on becoming the person that you want to be with( i.e. becoming your ideal mate... doing all the things that you would find desireable in a partner) this is why they say you attract what you are... so when that person comes back around that you lost or someone even better comes along you may not think that now you'll be the person you need to be so you don't ever have to feel this way again) Look, I know you don't know me but I promise you I felt exactly how you feel right now and I know 100% that there is light at the end of the tunnel and the only way that you're going to see that light it's to keep going forward and keep trying to improve yourself otherwise you're just going to sit in sadness until it overcomes you, all I can say about that is don't do that.

    Jimmy you have the very impact you wanted by being able to help and defend those in your tribe. I am a 71 y.o navy vet, 20 yrs broken service between Nam and desert storm. Retired in 1999. At 60 yrs old my world disintegrated in a matter of days. I went from being a productive RN to a use less ball of sadness and despair and hopeless in every aspect of my life. At 61 I was diagnosed with PTSD, acute severe depression, Bipolar, and on top of it all had a chronic /acute anxiety disorder that I had had most of my life. Every defensive mechanism I had used to keep myself functional disappeared. The outcome of all this led to significant suicide attempt. Years of trying to be someone or something that was not me imploded. The VA had me on seven different meds, and were constantly being changed or "adjusted'. I am now down to 3 meds and after countless hrs of therapy I am at least functional. I still suffer from on going depression. I do want to share 2 things that helped me beyond what any med ever did. I began fishing, alone most of the time that filled the need for isolation but in a constructive goal motivated activity. The other thing was I began to do wood working after I retired at 66. It filled that urge to be creative, goal oriented and helping others by making things for them,. The depression is still there every single day some more than others. To loose the will to live is a feeling that others who have not felt it have No concept of what that feels like . The drive for self preservation is the one deepest in our souls and to be able to loose that is beyond understanding. will see the sun rise tomorrow and feels it's warmth, looking at what I can accomplish today that will make a difference in myself and my other tribesmen.

      Stay strong, you can do it. You've been through so much & are still here, which proves how much inner strength you have. Every 'bad' thing is a test for us to experience & move on through. We have to learn to remove the negative emotion to these experiences. The brain has around 60,000 thoughts a day, of which around 90% is a repeat of the day before, which is why it's so easy to get stuck in a mental rut. Little positive steps of goals & achievements will lead to bigger steps etc. As Jimmy said, we're at war with ourselves, the most difficult enemy to conquer. Each day is like D-Day, but we're either going to get stuck on that beach or move off it!
      I wish you every success! 🙏

    Jimmy! I'm a guy but I think this is important for both men and women. I have had issues with Candida (essentially yeast infection) and I think it could be a more widespread cause of depression than what is commonly prescribed or talked about. Essentially if you have a crappy diet with poor sleep you are at risk of getting candida overgrowth in your stomach, which can latch on to the stomach walls and turn off your body's serotonin production. I started having issues after I drank beer on top of taking antibiotics, which was a big mistake and is warned against on the label but I forgot of course.
    Long story short, taking the time to learn how to cook with simple ingredients, meats, fruits, and veggies and cutting out processed sugar will take care of your stomach. It's tough man I'm still trying to get it all figured out. Thank you for the tips.

      As an herbalist a can say I 100% agree! Anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, restlessness, agitation, food sensitivities, gut issues, I could go on, can be related to candida overgrown the system. We say that the gut is the “second brain” for a reason and candida overgrowth is such a common sickness in our western world. Cutting out the processed foods, sugar treats and drinks and just Google “best ways to kill candida in the body” while using your judgement for reputable sites or seeing a naturopath or herbalist can help correct this but consistency is key (which is easier said than done when depressed but we all have to start somewhere) but if this is a issue for anyone it can be corrected over a couple months. 💜

    I quit cannabis 4 months ago after being a lifelong very extremely heavy user. I grew it for myself and used 1-2lb per year. I just enrolled in college to finish my degree at 58. I just bought a mountain bike and I'm taking 42mi bike rides at least once a week. I cut out junk food entirely I only cook vegetables and meat dishes eating only at home and I eat vegetarian sandwiches for lunch. (I still eat a little chocolate). Simple diet; boiled eggs for breakfast, avocado veggie sandwiches and fruit for lunch. 1-1.5 gallons of pure clean water per day. Steamed veggies and sometimes add steak or chicken for dinner. Don't overdo anything. Cut way down on salt and processed sugar and processed foods.
    Being assertive and setting boundaries with toxic people in my life (especially at work).
    I'm going to try the dry sauna and I'll be at the campus gym two days a week.
    I've been deeply heavily depressed since is was a teenager my parents were hardcore drug addicts that abandoned me in the street in a big city. I'm 58 and I currently have no friends and family. My depression had gotten so bad I was spending all my spare time in bed. My parents recently died and although it was an incredible release from that legacy of abuse and neglect it also hurt me deeply because it ended my hope for reconciliation and recovery of our horrible dark past. Leaving that behind without resolution has been the most difficult and trying issue in my life. My sister is the only family member but I had to go full no contact because she's a toxic narcissist and she blames me for things we both suffered because she was brainwashed by my parents and maintained her relationship with them while I was scapegoated and used as an emotional toilet by all of them.
    Resolving these personal family issues is the key to my depression it's what made me depressed beyond hope in the first place.
    In your heart you know what the problem is if you spend enough time looking inward and examining all aspects of your life.
    This video was inspirational for me it inspired me to do more and try harder and set more new goals.

      LSD and mushrooms completely changed my whole outlook on life..I became a better version of myself.
      This experience gave me a lot of confidence about myself and a bunch of bad thought/behaviour pattern were broken. One of these was pretty bad OCD that made me wash my hands alot..it gave me a lot of hope that things will be fine, this is the one thing that I heard throughout the trip. The main reason for the trip was my severe Depression and it definitely helped me. Before all I could do was lay in bed, now I am trying to rebuild my life one step at a time which wasn't possible before.

    I've had anxiety since my late teens and have suffered with depression on and off for a lot of my life. I'm now 44. What Jimmy said is legit. I've tried dying a couple of times and got to see how it affects those close to you. Nothing ever made me feel as bad as that did.
    Depression is that 'can't be arsed' feeling you have. Don't want to get out of bed or worry about personal hygiene, nevermind going out or trying to continue on normally. There's nothing wrong with taking prescribed meds if it helps you but the hardest battle is helping yourself. Don't set yourself goals that are too difficult, and celebrate every success.
    I think depression is where some of us struggle to deal with the sh1t parts of life, but there is always light at the end of the tunnel. Keep up the awesome content Jimmy!

      I’m about your age and still suffer social anxiety, depression and low level agoraphobia, even on dumb meds. Many things you wrote resonate with me, and in my experience it’s very difficult to articulate what you are going through with people that have never endured what I call “the black hole.”These past two years destroyed me, death of my best friend, mother suffered a heart attack and blood clot she thank God survived but I live very far away from her and my drama plagued sister who lives near her just cut out the whole family from her life, due to an insane situation I won’t even go into.
      The final blow was 6 months ago I was assaulted by a coworker physically and verbally, with eyewitnesses in the workroom but HR did nothing. He pushed me onto a chair yelling obscenities over a perceived slight (I’m female btw). He was moved from another location in the past due to bad behavior. They appointed a “regional manager” to do the investigation but it turns out he’s old friends with this lunatic. Basically he got a stern talking too, that’s it, and one of the witnesses who encouraged me to come forward turned on me because she saw nothing would be done and didn’t want to deal with drama.
      I quit this job, a 16 year career I loved, utterly broken. I thought I’d give myself a month to relax and heal but I’ve just gotten worse depression wise and I feel intense fear regarding starting future jobs. I’m ranting but watching this video has me in tears and I’m going to do some of these habits now thanks to everyone saying they work. I have the energy now to fight this depressive episode and hopefully win.

The only thing that helped me was running as it helped me focus on other things than feeling low. I never felt like I had a purpose until I was 39 and had my son - when i was pregnant i looked after myself with a good diet and exercise and honesty it was the healthiest ive ever felt mentally in my life. Im not saying that having a child will cure depression but my son is my purpose and reason for getting out of bed each day. Purpose is important. Thanks for this x

    The sauna thing reminds me of the Wim Hof method. The logic of it is that exposure to a little bit of environmental stress from hot or cold gives your immune system a real stressor to deal with for a short amount of time, instead of constantly having it respond to imagined stressors (anxiety), because it does need some amount of stress to essentially calibrate itself.

    Great tips Jimmy. I was also on Zoloft, for about 4 years. Initially it helped me a lot but over time seemed to not be working anymore. I'm now med free and feel better than I have in nearly a decade. Here's what I've done
    1) Exercise - something you enjoy, anything that gets you out of your mind and into your body.
    2) Sunbathing followed by a cold shower. Infrared sauna in the winter.
    3) Spending time in nature, even if it's just going into the backyard or to the park. Smell the fresh air, listen to the birds. It's incredibly calming.
    4) Mindfulness. Understand that you are not your thoughts & detach yourself from them. Observe your thoughts but don't attach yourself to them. Must easier said than done.
    5) ORGAN MEAT. Especially liver. I have eaten a pretty healthy diet all my life and let me tell you, no amount of vegetables will make you feel as incredibly nourished as a serving of liver. The change in *just* my mental health since eating organs has been incredible.

      Your experience with anti depressants is fairly common, where the med just needs to correct an imbalance and are not meant for long term use. Shamefully, doctors getting kickbacks and saying the opposite is why more people stick with meds when they no longer need them.

    Iraq Vet here too, suffering for years from PTSDand Depression.
    1. Never tried the sauna, will do that. Know alot of Russians who do that every week and somehow they are still alive so Ill try that.
    2. Im on Testosterone replacement therapy right now cause my levels have dropped to about a 70 year old mans. 145nl when it should be like 700. I was miserable these last two years and almost immediately I noticed an effect. Been on it a month and a half now and ive definitely noticed.
    3. Beat off way too much, acknowledged...
    4 Leg excercises are something I've always hated and with alot of spinal injuries due to my time in the Army has made running nearly impossible. SO, I used to skateboard all my life except these last two years. I love skating, more longboarding cause I can move, I love the sense of speed and it is an insanely great cardio excercise. Walk up half mile long hill, fly down hill, hope not to die, senses are all firing and im operating at peak, repeat.
    5. Goals. I used to have a 1 year plan for shorter more easily attainable goals and a 5 year plan so I can have something to work towards.
    Ive been working on moving out of the US again, I only came here cause of COVID. Iwas living in Barcelona, Spain and I was hnestly really happy there. I've been nomadic for the last 10 years but Im working on a long term residence permit for Spain so Ican alleviate alot of the issues I had there last time, i.e on a tourist visa you cant rent an apartment. With this permit, I can. I can live there no problem once its done and I hope that will help. Barcelona I was skating everyday, enjoying the sun at the beach and the nice spanish people. Its amazing how much your environment can shape you, well at least me. Its also nice just being away from what you know and challenging yourself.
    Thanks for this dude. I think we were even in Iraq the same time. 2010-2011? I saw some of your photos and I recognized alot of stuff. I was a 68W, Army Medic so you can probably guess why Isuffer from PTSD and depression.

Stopped drinking it a couple months ago and it really helped. Actually felt like doing things again. Didn't clear up my depression completely, but definitely helped.

The time when amazing power set foot on my doorstep and forced me to move forward or get out of the way. Holy cow this video brought back some incredible memories. Great video bro keep them coming.
    Edit: To add as I think about this more. It was the only thing in my life that absolutely forced me to make the change in myself for the better or else I would simply fall away. I trusted what came over me and allowed the change to take place because myself wasn’t happy. Thanks to depression I’ll forever be leaning forward towards my better self.

    Pick something you like and try it, running and biking with music really helped me get through some dark ass times. And pick your circle wisely, keep only those who want you in thier life in your life which also really helped but wasnt easy.
    Chemical imbalances are different for everyone and super hard to pinpoint, ive been on a dozen different medications and all lead to me self destructing in a more exaggerated manner. Dietary choices are also super important to overall mental well being.
    Your spot on about looking towards a purpose and AVOID RETREATING inward at all costs as it will help you the most with conquering the feeling becoming a habit.
    In regards to cannabis i suggest getting low thc and focus more so on CBD for treating depression symptoms.
    Solid take jimmy.
    I hope that this comment clicks for someone.

      dietary choices are soooo important. everything you eat should be fuel for your body AND brain. neurotransmitters are made from essential amino acids. fresh vegetables have them. try eating lots of fresh carrots, celery and others you might like. stay away from sugar (poison) pastries and junk food. get your probiotics and fresh fruit. prayers for your sense of well being and joy.

      I *loathe* how THC makes me feel but I wouldn't be able to walk without CBD (and that is not an exaggeration). And to be clear: I'm *totally fine* with someone else doing THC, I just don't like it. Just like I don't like squash. If you want to eat it, knock yourself out.
      A lot of people get a dopamine rush when they exercise; *I am one of the people that does not*. If my mood is okay, I can deal with it, but if I'm down in the dumps, exercise just obliterates what functionality I have and I end up feeling like I'm circling the drain.

    Happy to hear you are feeling better my dude.
    Want to give a little PSA to the depressed men out there. We are being hormonally attacked by androgen disrupters in our food/plastics/pesticides. These phytoestrogens cause high levels of estradiol in men. Symptoms of high estrogen include depression, tiredness, fat gain/muscle loss, becoming unmotivated, sexual disfunctions.
    Ive been fighting this depression for the last 10 years. I started taking DIM which balances your estrogen levels and prevents testosterone aromatization to estrogen and my entire life has been fixed in a couple weeks. Look into DIM, get your hormones checked. Good luck all!

    I've recently began commenting on things that really meant something to me and this is one of them. I'm handicapped over 20 years (I call myself 'permanent broke') and of course, I'm in a depression but they get worse and better. One of those small things that are infinitely easy to do is, right before you go to sleep think of 3 good things that happened that day. It doesn't matter if it's - a dog wagged it's tail at you or you got a stranger to smile just by saying 'hi or you saw a nice cloud formation'. 3 things. Every night. It helps you notice the world more and get out of the withdrawal from people thing and it helps you not be so negative.

    Surprised you didn’t mention positive affirmations. That changed my life, combined with microdosing psychedelic mushrooms. It is theorized that it helps to reset your brain. When I started listening to affirmations there were phrases I had NEVER said to myself and would never have thought of on my own because I did ALOT of negative self talk, like I am worthless or hopeless. I highly recommend Kenneth Soares RUclips channel. I truly feel he saved my life. My issues were PTSD, Social anxiety and major depression. I didn’t want to live. I had this for 35 years. It’s not completely gone. Still working on it. Those thoughts of not wanting to live are gone now though. I also got into gardening and that helped alot.

    I was extremely depressed for a very long time. What helped me the most was forcing myself to find the positive in EVERY situation. After a while, it became a habit and my mood drastically changed. Everything you said is great too. Cold showers help clear the mind and improve focus as well. I wonder if it has something to do with the temperature change on the skin since you mentioned hot saunas.
    Once my vibe was raised enough synchronicity kicked in and my higher self showed up. I had no idea about spiritual awakening until I went through it. I look back now and I am amazed at the unnecessary suffering I put myself through. Whatever doesn't kill us makes us stronger I guess. :)

    Depression is horrible. The way I feel is like you just feel indifferent to anything. You just don't care.
    It's like watching a black and white movie, with no sound, in an empty room. Once the movie ends, you just sit there watching the static screen because you are too lazy to get up and do something.
