That is the conclusion that i have to make. I'm about to turn 40 and if something isn't suddenly going to change my life, it's not going to get any better. I've had chronic fatigue syndrome and depression for about 20 years, but it's really gotten bad in the last few years, and while even those things were usually intermittent, now they seem not to be.
My skin is crumbling, i have an increasing amount of food intolerances which leave me with almost nothing left that i'm able to eat, which also has a direct effect of my physical and mental state, and i've lost most of the strength and much flexibility of my hands, leaving me unable to play any musical instruments or do anything that requires fine motorics or stamina.
I'm increasingly convinced that my life circumstances are the reason for much of my health problems, and if something miraculous doesn't happen to my life real soon, i might eventually die from sheer misery, or end up with some ailment that cripples me for the rest of my life.
I know that every time there is something that looks promising, not even necessarily for me, but the way the world is going, it actually makes me physically better, to the point that many of my ailments are almost gone temporarily, then as it turns out to be nothing, it's back again.
There's really no clear ideas that are relevant to me. I have been trying everything there is, over and over and it's never led to anything. I have still never met one single furry in real life, nor do i even know of many in my country - they all seem to be rich hipster fursuiters with no concern for the overall community, and absolutely nothing in common with me. And i don't really have many close friends online in the rest of the world either, anymore, much because of the ways Internet culture and furry culture has changed from the days of forums, personal websites, IRC and desktop messengers.
With my other interests, it's equally hopeless - there simply isn't anybody here who cares about the things that i do, nor are there enough people online for it to be of any use. I don't think i can really relate to people who aren't furries, they have no idea about the issues, so what is there to do?

This is most likely diet related. Lack of exercise can cause depression.

>>3696592>>3693277Sugar addiction and lack of exercise is the problem. Countless studies which prove that vigorous exercise will stop depression.
Would recommend fasting for 4 days. No food, only liquids. At the very least he should get OFF the sugar. So damaging! Start eating only "Keto" foods and follow only a keto diet. No sugar!
I know this is wasted advice and will be summarily ignored… but the question was asked and an answer was given.
Again. To everyone. Get off the sugar! Get off the sugar! Get off the sugar! It's slowly killing you.

>>3696593This. Sugar is poison. I've eaten enough sugar in my childhood to last me a lifetime, which has consequentially been cut short for having done so. Probably. Come the 30th of this month, I will have been strict keto for 2 years. That is, well under 20 g net carbs a day for 2 years.
Not planning on eating refined sugar again, but I think I'll loosen my carb restriction this year. Maybe include more fruit and higher carb vegetables.

>>3696593This, actually.
Sugar is addictive so companies like to put it in everything to keep people craving and buying. Condiments, salad dressings, and beverages are loaded with it, so people trying to eat more wholesome main courses still unwittingly consume it in those forms. The caesar dressing in McDonald's kale salad has more calories, fat, and sodium by itself than an entire Big-Mac burger, for instance. If I'm not mistaken, sugar in particular is mostly responsible for belly-fat too, so cutting back will help your waistline.
>>3693267Do you have access to fresh produce? I eat a lot of fruit each day: two apples, two bananas, plus an orange or two and I literally always feel kinda better afterwards.

>>3696599Calories are irrelevant in the whole. The body is dual fuel. It runs primarily on ketones, but also uses sugar. When running on sugar it will store any fat it can find for use later, since this is the primary fuel source. There are no built in regulators for the amount of fat stored, since it is rare to find that much sugar in a paleo diet…. now enter the modern diet. See the problem?
Sugar is what causes Alzheimer's. In fact, Alzheimers has now been renamed Type 3 diabetes. Search engine "glycosylation of amyloid proteins" to learn more.
