Anyone else go to the gym purely to cope with depression?

I literally couldn't care less about results. I just enjoy the endorphin release from the exercise, making my lungs and muscles ache from overdoing it and the aches and pains it gives me the following days serve as a good distraction from feeling such a visceral sense of doom in my stomach about the future that all I think about it ending it. I've become reasonably muscular/low fat over the last 6 months but it's been purely incidental.

    its pretty common knowledge that people go to the gym cause they think they can land a sexy gym going cutie from the gym, needless to say it is all fantasy
    there are outliers of course who go there to compete and build their bodys, but they dont go to commercial gyms and dont post on the internet

      It is for me.

      But I think they're probably other things in play making me feel suicidal.

    I used to kill myself in the gym so I wouldn't kill myself out of it but the gym itself gave me nothing, it was just a way to not feel like a piece of shit for not working out like I should. I'm barely hanging on as it is, just trying as hard as I can to do my weekly workouts.

    Why is there a hole in the most important part of the armor. Does this dumb b***h want to get stabbed. I could have a clean thrust and run her through with my pike. Don’t even get me started on the openings on her arms and armpits it’s practically just asking for a dagger or shortsword in the ribs. The smith she bought this from is moronic and she is even more moronic for buying it.

      Disagree on the armpits, she can guard it easily. I’d be more concerned about the inner elbow there. A well placed slash and that hand gets turned off.

    It’s more common than you would think.
    Aside from the people doing it to live longer/stay healthy, people who play sports, and women.
    Most of the people at the gym are depressed, have had/have addictions, or have some other mental issue.

    Especially among the people on steroids.
    At the very least severe body dysmorphia and insecurity. Likely some bullying or was a loser in school.

    Some of the main benefits for me are getting out of the house, and using up 'stress relief'. Showing off the guns also nice.

    Working out just provides me with a tangible goal and anxiety relief. The depression is forever, though. No amount of lifting will fill the void of loneliness and despair.

    Yeah I feel like killing myself all the time. My diet and exercise is a way to feel incontrol and inflict self harm.
