You need antidepressants.

No seriously don't

y not?

Antidepressants are mystery drugs. Science does not understand depression or how anti-depressants work; all we have is clinical data that says n% more people taking this drug recovered from depression compared to the placebo. Sometimes n% is only 1-2%. The "chemical imbalance" line perpetuated by the drug companies is a myth designed to lower people's resistance to taking the drugs, because if they told the truth--that science cannot tell the difference between a depressed brain and a normal brain, and no one quite knows how or why most of these drugs work--a lot of people would not take them. They have tons of side effects, some of them quite nasty, and they are usually difficult to stop, especially Cymbalta and Effexor. Attempting to withdraw from them can cause even worse depression than what you started with, which doctors will cite as proof you "need" the drug, when it's really the drug making you feel that way. There is data that the overwhelming majority of depression episodes resolve on their own without medication, and that you're more likely to stay depressed if you remain on an anti-depressant for long-term. These drugs also don't fix any of the underlying problems, and often work by numbing your emotions. That, the weight gain, and the sexual dysfunction has destroyed many a relationship and marriage. All of this said, there are certainly people who have benefited from these drugs and whose lives have been saved by them. But they are never a long-term solution and should never be taken by themselves without therapy.

Dude are you just making stuff up?

You can tell if a person has depression from a brain scan.

How antidepressants work is not a mystery, they have solid chemistry behind them.

Most depressive episodes do not go away on their own and do require medication and therapy.

Yes withdrawl is a thing but you should always be weened off of any medication, even when switching to a new one.

For high intensity discomfort try pressing something very cold to your forehead. Or hold it in your hand.

You can also take a hot shower or do vigorous exercise.

Also it is important to acknowledge the depression and anxiety and to not try to push it away. Pushing only increases the intensity and prolongs the feeling. Let the feeling sit there and wash over you.

If youre going to do VR you have to do Vive. For only 200 more you get full body tracking and you can still do seated if you want to. And its steam supported so there will always be games for it.

If youre going to go VR this gen then go Vive, but waiting a gen isnt a bad idea. If you do purchase it though I gaurantee you wont be unhappy with it.

In fact, Ford was one of the nation's fittest and most athletic presidents.

Ford, who died at 93 on Tuesday, played center and linebacker on the University of Michigan football team, where he was a three-year letter winner. His teams enjoyed consecutive undefeated, national championship seasons in 1932 and 1933. He was the Wolverines' most valuable player in 1934 and, on Jan. 1, 1935, he played in a college all-star game known today as the East West Shrine Game.

Michigan later retired Ford's No. 48 jersey.

After graduating from Michigan, Ford turned down offers from the Detroit Lions and the Green Bay Packers to play in the NFL, said Don Holloway, curator of Ford's presidential museum in Grand Rapids.

Instead, Ford went to Yale to become an assistant football and boxing coach, with the hope that it would help him get accepted into Yale Law School. His coaching duties delayed his acceptance until spring 1938.

In April 1942, Ford joined the U.S. Naval Reserve as an ensign and soon became a physical-fitness instructor at a preflight school in Chapel Hill, N.C. A year later, when he began service aboard the aircraft carrier USS Monterey, his first assignment was as athletic director and gunnery division officer.

Become a personal trainer/life coach. Have people pay for lessons. Offer to travel and accompany them. Become a fitness trainer on cruise ships and travel that way. Some amount of training could count as work. After I "retire" run and manage charities. Could definitely make it work as long as nothing Im doing is cheating.

Man I'm just imagining myself at my worst. If my girlfriend at the time had said some of the stuff she said I could have done it.

What she did is extremely messed up, she was a trusted person in this kid's life and she pushed him into it. Had she not been there he wouldn't have done it. She killed him.

I guess, but nothing suggests otherwise and all the evidence suggests she is ASPD.

Even so, she's not clinically insane in anyway to suggest rehab would help her. She was aware of her actions, the only problem is she didn't expect the consequences to be as high as they were.

Gonna go with the only person here who has actually studied psychology.

RikkuSwirls
Cherri is generally a passive girl, and likely wouldn't hit anyone unprovoked. Nor is she big/tall enough to put her automatically ahead of anyone (average height). But she is in good shape, does a small amount of strength training and has a strong core. That, and she has a relatively unknown blood rage. Well, maybe not a blood rage, but when she gets angry, she packs a bit more of a punch. Is it good enough? It depends on the opponent. There are people she probably wouldn't hit, and others she wouldn't hesitate to lay into.
Chances: 5/10 (raises half a point if she wears her Rikku cosplay)

redwingsbabe
She gets an advantage because she outright doesn't give a f***. She's the most likely to fight dirty, because she would just want to win. That being said, she doesn't have any size to put behind her attacks, and likely can be felled by a well-placed blow. If she got on top of someone on the ground though, I doubt she'd have any mercy. Peoples faces will be used as punching bags in that case.
Chances: 7/10

Alice 19th
She's generally relevant because she is the tallest PotD female by far (unless Lighty comes back). Most PotD girls stop at 5'6", she goes on to 5'10" (she's going to hate me for saying her real height <_<). So she definitely has that going for her. There's one issue though: she's actually really skinny. She's the most likely to break by a good kick. But if she punches/kicks from range, she could do some good damage.
Chances: 5/10

Foxxbox
Even though she lost weight, she still has a size advantage over the rest of the girls here. She likely can punch well, she's likely got better balance than most, and if all else fails, she could use her breasts as a suffocation device. She's likely the one people least expect to win, but she is one of the stronger options that shouldn't be counted out.
Chances: 8/10

kriemhilde
She's the only one that comes close to Alice as far as height goes (5'7", IIRC), and while, like Alice, she is also quite skinny, she makes up for it for having more of a penchant for punishment. She'll take more punches than most, and she might be turned on by biting. And she could possibly choke you with her hair as well. Dark horse option.
Chances: 7/10

No idea who wrote this, but its dated 2012

Soma's topic made me wonder. Also, including PotD females that have been here in the past month or so. So Ail the Witch and Terra_Ice the Viking aren't included, as I could see them being frontrunners to win in fights.

Jen
Most of you are probably thinking "Weight advantage! Jen is a clear favourite!", but not so fast! Being heavy doesn't make you a great fighter automatically. She's out of shape, and any PotD female who could stand to rope-a-dope with her for a few minutes would just tire her out. Plus, she doesn't have any sort of reach advantage at all, being one of the shorter girls here. Sure, she could fart up a storm, but biological warfare is illegal in the PotD ring. That being said, a well placed Body Slam has worked for Snorlax for years, so why shouldn't it here? She just has to get lucky to hit it.
Chances: 3/10

RC
I could see RC being much more fiesty than Jen. As well, she is definitely athletic enough to hang at the top. I'm unsure of her height, but something tells me she's around 5'5", which puts her in the average area of PotD. She does have sturdier legs than Jen, allowing her to put more force in her punches. My question is technique. RC strikes me as too much of a girly-girl to actually use a closed-hand attack, resorting to scratching and slapping. She could kick to her advantage, on the other hand.
Chances: 7/10

Harena
Harena has a large size disadvantage, coming in at a small 5'0" and [REDACTED] lbs (I have a feeling they'll get mad at me if I guess). So chances are she's not going to be able to throw punches and get a knock-out. The positive is that she's drugged out and probably could take more hits than any other PotD female. That being said, she probably still couldn't take advantage of it, and the only way she'd have any offensive is if she started to use herself as a projectile.
Chances: 3/10
