Sooo… Pushed a huge reset button on their relationships and…
I still don’t get this. This kind of advice doesn’t exactly work for anyone but the person speaking. No one can exactly follow the life of another as we are all completely different.
I guess the point that you have some level of free will and can make personal choices is new to some people but that isn’t a fix and doesn’t really resolve anything for depression.
It’s trying a different tactic to handling life but it negates what was causing them misery in the first place. Which is the monotony of life itself to a degree.
This tosses all that in favor of denying finding purpose for just exploding your existence to see if you can build it new in a way that might make you happy but likely will need another reset when it stops working.
That’s very much easier said than done. Aa life is often not so easy to find a better version of but more often a different version.
The advice of stay alive because at least you keep experiencing new things is good advice. Trying for better is a nice idea but a message of do what it takes to make your life “better” is… Fantasy in a way that feels off to me.
I could tell the story of the night I tried to drown myself and all that changed since then but it wouldn’t be better persay. Just changed. The story would sound like meandering prose and little purpose.
I don’t understand the myth of better. It causes misery more in those that do not find it.

I just don’t get it.
I don’t think this is advice as much as it is a story. The advice is “find a better life, whatever that life is.”

Does everything have to apply 1:1 to your own life for you to be able to take something useful from somebody else’s story?
