If you’re actually struggling, look into SSRIs, they are a type of medicine that can help with coping. They turned my pessimistic/negative attitude into a normal, slightly positive one, among other benefits.

I’m glad they’ve helped you. They also have a ton of side effects, have minimal proof of their efficacy and can cause permanent changes like chronic anhedonia, and that’s coming from someone who takes psych meds. Unless you’re a psychiatrist and the poster is your patient, stay in your lane. Most people don’t like receiving unsolicited medical advice from a stranger.

Calm down my dude. I suggested they look into them, as in read up on and hopefully talk to a professional about them. I didn’t prescribe and tell them to start taking them.

I’m calm. I’m letting you know that what your doing is considered rude. At it’s worst, it’s emotionally damaging and invalidating for people who have chronic health issues or disabilities to hear suggestions like that.
