  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

    This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.

    In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at [email protected].

It seems it's not in the DSM. Here's a good video made on the publishing of a book in the USA on the topic from a researcher who suffers from high functioning depression

I can't see the video, but depression can be tricky. It can be amplified by brain chemistry, developmental experiences, present circumstances, or even diet and nutrition. It can also come in waves or be steady state.

You pretty much have to experiment on your own to see what you could do that might influence it. For example, perhaps the easiest experiment is to take a multi vitamin with minerals to see if that help[s. You might expand your diet to include more vegetables and fruit, seafood, nuts, and whole grains.

Exercise is another possibility. Being depressed generally does not help initiate something like exercises, but as a start one might make a walk around the block once each day.

Even something like getting a pet can be a management strategy.
