Tbh what fix my depression and lack of motivation ended up being low testosterone since I was getting older. I dont wanna sound like an ad, but I finally inquired with my doctor. I gained weight, depressed, and had a general laziness and no motivation compared to my early late 20s (Im mid 30s). I have no stress, enjoy my job, diet same as before, same activity but yet gained weight and felt like shit. He requested bloodwork test and it showed that I had testosterone levels lower than an elderly man. So he put me on TRT. Started with the cream and immediately felt better. Increased the doses and tested frequently to watch my levels to return to normal. Now Im on intramuscular injections once every 2 weeks. He showed me and and my wife one time and now I can easily do it at home. I feel like Im in my early 20s again. Eager to go out and do things, and general happiness and energetic life. Wish i would've done it sooner. It transformed my life, and I know many men is at where I was, so I feel obligated to tell them to get their testosterone levels tested.
What country were you in? I have the same thing, was only when I asked for the test for the testosterone levels that they did it and guess what same as you man. Tried the oral tablets but they did not work well, now using the gel but I think I need to move onto the injections.
To the people saying he wasn’t depressed… he definitely was. It’s Bill though so he’s gonna down play how bad it really was. There are plenty of people who are severely depressed who don’t really even realize it.
theres people so depressed they dont move from their beds for months because they lost interest in all activities. if bill is depressed its way on the mild end of the spectrum cause he couldnt be a comedian if he had any significant amount of depression unless he was using medication to take the edge off which i dont think he is
@@thehandliesthandlecouldn't be a comedian ? Brother comedians are depressed asf . The greatest Robin Williams killed himself because of it for fuck sake
Catching bad thoughts and doing something else to lift up mood. That's something they teach u in therapy, like cbt therapy. I'm glad he was able to change his thinking and stay focused :O
I'm under the impression that I can do anything at a high skill level given the time & interest...except marketing & telling people how great I am. I easily turn my back on that, lose attention, interest, & it lowers how much money I make. I just love doing the thing itself. Unfortunately...this is how I fell into depression & stopped playing music. I'm not depressed anymore, but I still don't market.
I used to feel similarly about marketing my skills, but honestly it's a very unnuanced and immature take. Marketing is actually extremely easy, it's as simple as writing a sentence or two on social media every few days. Having launched nft projects where 99% of success is marketing, I can honestly say it's worth learning and it's not nearly as painful as it seems.
@@AP-qb1hj I agree with how mechanically simple you say marketing is, just like networking. When things are attached to something psychological they become a little more difficult. I get very sad & really down when I start doing any networking. The only way I was able to do it in the 3 years I searched for my first career position was to basically buddy buddy have fun, & just toss out general help to random people. When I would have to focus on questioning people in a company & showing interest in the company & telling people that I was perfect for a job, I would find this awkward & would lose interest within weeks or days. This is basically what most of the "Networking Tips" videos or articles boiled down to, & following that caused the conversation to be very stiff & die quickly. I only started doing the buddy buddy thing over 2 years into my job search. Unfortunately, I just gave up my career after over 600 apps sent out, since I couldn't even open Linkedin without feeling awful. I've been concerned about money for 15 years, & now being 40, I'm trying to focus on short-term gratification instead of the long term goals I've sunk years or decades into with no profit.
By what he is saying, i now understand fully why i feel when i see his interviews and stand ups, its me talking. he had an abusive father, i had an abusive mother.
You have to.. well no Not have. Its like when you realize us humans are co creative. We are partnering up with reality and we get to either choose or become a victim to outside sercomestance... or we are co creating it... Go within.. or go without...what you resist persists. If you look at the illusion it disappears... we are making it all up. So co create what ever reality you want to see.
I can't get past the 1st hurdle. My brain is not functioning correctly because of the monotonous grind of the working man's life. Day after day after day of having to interact with people who I'd rather not and doing soul crushing tasks. Leaves me no energy and I don't know how I get out of bed to face it each day.
It’s actually not even that hard all you have to do is quit drinking alcohol then you easily will see that depression was a fantasy in your head caused by the self-pity driven by alcohol. Equally important is not working out, if you have no pursuit of fitness in your life you will always be miserable 💯 ✊🏆
The title should be changed to “how I overcame being bummed out” I’m tired of people being lazy and bummed out thinking they have it understand depression, y’all wouldn’t last a day with clinical depression.
Having stability does, and money allows that. With stability one can spend time with family and friends. Because Bill seems to surround himself with good people, he can potentially be happy.
It's a lot easier to get off the futon when you got a stacked ass bank account and have the means to do shit lol some of these people are in a deep hole and the exit seems so far away it's pointless to try. But at some point you gotta choose life and cling to it or you're just rolling over. If you really wanna go out like that then go ahead, kick your feet up and relax.
He overcame depression by marrying a wife that wouldn't let him be friends with Anthony Cumia or be funny. That way he doesn't have to deal with backlash from the mob and life is easy. Depression overcome.
Being angry isn't being depressed... Sigh... So many people don't understand what depression actually is... It's good advice if you're one of those always-angry person, but it's not if you have depression. This ain't it
You can be angry when you're depressed..... you can be happy when you're depressed.... my father was depressed his entire life, it doesn't mean he never had other emotions
"Alright, I'm hittin' 35, most people live to about 70, I'm kinda halfway through this..." Addendum: "...and I don't even remember shit until I was like, 8 or 9, so knock off 9 years right there..." Addendum 2: "...and my body is gonna be basically useless by the time I'm 65, so..."
Depressions biologically are maladaptations to chronic stress that occur if you don't deal with the stress and don't have a well functioning support system. They could still happen in a good environment, but very unlikely. Basically, if you are obese, don't move much, eat junk food, don't lift etc you don't feel bad due to depression. You just feel bad because you aren't healthy. Real depression is rare af. Just go to a group therapy session and you'll see fat people complain about feeling bad, when it's in fact their own choice to feel bad.
Unhappiness is not Depressed. Theres no such thing as depressed, there is clinical depression which is a medical illness. Most people are just unhappy. Simple as that.
Dude I just heard the intro song on Spotify and it was killing me to find out where it’s from. Need less to say I found it. Cheers for doing me in for 20 minutes you Toss
"Overcame depression" 😂 as if that shit could go away, maybe he was depressed but depression is a way different animal, manageable sure, but not something you overcome.
That’s your depressed thinking making you hopeless. I think that’s really what depression is at least for me: hopelessness about some fundamental good thing in life. Like being a good person. Or having truly fulfilling relationships.

I’m gonna talk to my doctor this week! I feel I’m in the same boat you were and my testosterone is definitely low! I have no energy anymore it sucks!
Same here cheers mate
Wow! that's a great discovery. Hormones are understated as far as mental health goes.

Old Bill is always going on and on about how he bravely battled and conquered his depression.

By what he is saying, i now understand fully why i feel when i see his interviews and stand ups, its me talking. he had an abusive father, i had an abusive mother.
"I'm a working comedian - I'm stealing money" - brutal !
"I'm selling tickets, getting away with murder, your a working comedian stealing money."
Success will quickly silence any hate aimed at you.
Bill always talks straight & is a good comedian He deserves what he earns. I’ve seen specials by lesser comedians playing full houses.
First we got Sam O'Nella Academy, now RNGesus has gifted us with Bill Burr University.
i needed to hear this Bill Burr thank you joke daddy!
Yo Billy Backbeat, awesome to see ya play drums and love the metal🤘...keep up the good work
So, you were not depressed. Nice work Bill.
He said he was not clinically depressed
Chronic depression is usually lifelong but anyone can fall into a depressed state and struggle to get out of it. Fair play to him discussing it
Yes he was, no he isn't anymore. Git gud, son.
There are different forms of depression. Not everyone is depressed due to a chemical imbalance.
@@TIENxSHINHAN most people are not and no one knows for sure who actually is, since there is no way to prove that
Getting rich is the best cure for depression. Bill is right.
Hey this was kinda inspirational. 👍
Good stuff Bill.

The only thing that brought me lasting change regarding depression is deliverance in Jesus' name. It is good to be a follower of Christ. :)

Where is the outro song clipped from?? I can’t find it lol
Brave little Hollywood Bill
Weirdly titled. Never heard any 'how'. He actually doesn't explain how he overcame at all. He just acknowledged its existence.
He broke agreement with it. He refused to buy into it. He would distract himself.
A good ol' fashioned smack in the soul from magic mushrooms, thats how.
The shroom never fails to deliver.
I’ve been looking for the some you rumble at the end? Anyone’s know?

I know plenty of fat people that seem to be content, happy and satisfied
Every time I've seen Bill Burr interviewed lately he seems depressed as fuck. Maybe 'resigned' is a better word for it, actually.
Step one: be rich and successful
depression is boring unless your depressed then u find it interesting
The title should be changed to “how I overcame being bummed out”
I’m tired of people being lazy and bummed out thinking they have it understand depression, y’all wouldn’t last a day with clinical depression.
I'm sure being worth 8 figures probably helps cure it.
Robin Williams, Anthony Bourdain, Avicii, Chester Bennington, Steve Bing, Caroline Flack, Ernest Hemmingway, I could go on and on and on....
You really think he had 8 figures when he started out? Are you dense. You honestly think the money came that soon?
He still had to earn it🤦♂️
@SoftserveSodium Yes I hear that phrase from rich people
Having stability does, and money allows that. With stability one can spend time with family and friends. Because Bill seems to surround himself with good people, he can potentially be happy.
