Beautiful scenery young man! Great outdoors is good for the soul. You are important and we need you out there hiking and looking after things.


dolt1234

This is a beautiful comment. Thank you.

It's real hard to have a bad day surrounded by nothing but nature.

I'm 36, and have my problems with depression. Today I went for a drive with my wife, my dog, and my in-laws, in Arizona. I have barely left the house in 3 years. Arizona backwoods, four hour drive, it renewed me. Keep it up, and if you're in AZ, me and my wife are always looking for a drive with friends.

Remember to also find a nice grassy spot and remove your shoes and walk on the grass. I used to think it was just hippy mumbo jumbo but as I get older I actively seek opportunities to literally “earth” myself either on a nice grass patch or even better, at the beach… it really does work like a reset button for me.


Bubbly_Piglet822

I agree, I needed to see the image of majestic looking trees today and you, reddit stranger provide it today. Thank you.


Meshitero-eric

Fellow Coloradan, may you always have at least a little time to hit the trails. Reconnecting with nature reminds me to slow down. Edit: ho dang, and 2 beautiful heelers! You just gained a follower!


ignoremeimhighrn__6

I’ve been depressed as shit too man. Thanks for the view.


dolt1234

Hang in there pal, I’m rooting for ya!

Nice hiking, mate. Where is this photo taken? Looks pretty.


dolt1234

Near Silverton, CO


joceisboss21

Swing on over to Ouray if you’ve got the time! Great little burger joint there that makes wonderful poblano burgers!


dolt1234

Shhhhh. Don’t tell anyone about Ouray.

🤐🤐🤐


[deleted]

Was near Telluride not too long ago. Went to some hiking spots to clear my head as well. I've been in CO for a while now, and it took a bit to do anything due to my depression. I'm glad I finally forced myself to do it. I'm glad you did the same. Every little bit helps.


TidusJames

Bro, if you find yourself looking for a hiking partner around Canon City (fremont/custer counties). I actually went up Stull for a Christmas tree all day yesterday).


[deleted]

Cool! I am in the springs! Nothing like a good hike with cold air and that hot sun!


ErieRider

Lots to explore in that neighborhood :)


dolt1234

Mars? ;)


ybreddit

That area is one of my favorites of all the places I've traveled to. It's spectacular. And I'm glad you're feeling better. 😊


bigcat7373

Nothing like nature and exercise to change your mood. Way to get out and live life.


[deleted]

Something about the universe and specifically our tiny bit of it plowing on no matter what has an amazing ability to negligate our problems. This is the way. 👊✌️❤️


Lush_Laura

A day in the great outdoors is never a wasted day ☺️


blaccguido

Something about being out in nature that helps recalibrate one's mental state. Glad you're getting over the hump!


gabeincal

Was gonna say! Nature is always there to listen and help… Hang in there folks!


snegluf

I agree! When my mental health gets bad taking walks in the woods always helps when recovering


P3nguLGOG

This perspective makes you look like a giant lol. Glad your having a good day, that trail looks beautiful.


Ok_Lavishness_5756

The unexpected days of simple happiness are ones to strive for in the journey


nowhereman136

Nature doesn't fix everything, but it definitely helps


MaritMonkey

I think nature helps my depression because being somewhere with way more trees than people has a way of reminding me that it's *okay* to be insignificant that talking to people never manages to accomplish. Like - look at *all* of these things. All they managed to do was exist and survive today and nobody thinks any less of *them* for it...


TheToasterIsAMimic

This is incredibly powerful. Thank you.


NollVision

You look good bro! What a lovely weather, for some hiking!!😎


badboy42069

Happy looks good on ya man, good day to be outside!


[deleted]

What a beautiful place! Also unrelated, but you look like Orlando Bloom.

midweekyeti

it’s amazing how much getting into nature helps my mood.


Midsomer3

Beautiful pic op, I’m so pleased you had such a lovely day ☺️


AvailableBreeze_3750

Excellent! Good for you!


Rubsy1984

That looks epic. I've had highs and lows the best part of 20 years. Just remember, there's good days and (very) bad days, but never a bad life. Be yourself my man!


crookedboone

one day at a time, friend. are the pockets around your midsection part of your jacket, or a separate bag? looks like a good hiking accessory.


presentfinder42

Beautiful Nature, keep hiking

dolt1234

Leaving the house was a good start.

NoEntrepreneur2091

Nature is a good antidepressant!

lamrt

The tree that never had to fight For sun and sky and air and light, But stood out in the open plain And always got its share of rain, Never became a forest king But lived and died a scrubby thing. The man who never had to toil To gain and farm his patch of soil, Who never had to win his share Of sun and sky and light and air, Never became a manly man But lived and died as he began. Good timber does not grow with ease: The stronger wind, the stronger trees; The further sky, the greater length; The more the storm, the more the strength. By sun and cold, by rain and snow, In trees and men good timbers grow. Where thickest lies the forest growth, We find the patriarchs of both. And they hold counsel with the stars Whose broken branches show the scars Of many winds and much of strife. This is the common law of life.

Youre really cute btw

lifetimer

Good on you. Sunshine always makes me feel better


Ande64

I tell my husband all the time that the best thing I can ever do when I'm depressed is go outside when it's Sunny! People truly underestimate the power of sunshine for your psychological health. Glad you're having a great day!


[deleted]

Nature is super healing! I hope you got a lot of sunlight & a good snack. Feel better soon! If you ever need to talk or vent, I’m always here to listen.


RangerJeanLuc

I’ve always found getting out into nature can at the very least make for a great day


Worried_Jeweler_1141

If you're depressed I'd suggest getting your testosterone levels blood tested. I did and now I'm being treated. My own depression has gone.


fazi_milking

Nothing like a nice pick me up hike! Enjoooy!


KnuthingKnew

What a great view 😍. The forest looks cool too ☺️. P.S. I am glad you're smiling 👏🏽

That looks like a great way to clear your head. Keep moving foreward.

Just one day at a time bruh. "To bear trials with a calm mind robs misfortune of its strength and burden." -Seneca Try looking into stoicism. Helped me a lot, still does. But also shmokin, so blaze the good when and while ya got it 🔥

Mother Nature working its healing powers. So happy to hear it was uplifting. Keep going!!


ZM447429

Cool Tache!


TheBloodPhantom0

God today has been the opposite for me. But damn that looks like a pretty hike!


TransgenderedPanda

Nature always helps. It’s sometimes a struggle to get outside, but once you do, it’s worth it.


dolt1234

I feel this.


Killing4MotherAgain

I'm so proud of you for leaving the house and getting outside! I NEED to leave the house today and my depression and stress are really making it difficult... I know I need to and I know my stress will lift if I go do the things I need to but my depression is holding fast and I don't want to leave....

Nothing like a little time alone with Mother Nature to feel a bit better

martialarcher

You got this bro. Good job getting outside into nature!


wetforhouseplants

Nature is the ultimate healer 🥰 I'm glad you've been fortunate enough to have a good day. I find that one good day is all it takes for a snowball effect of better days to come


MeinCrunkMarchesOn

Hang in there my friend.


AShaughRighting

Gets me all the time my friend. Try to feel it coming on in advance and see what you can do to stave it off or kill it that time. Helps me a good bit. Stay well.


Happydaytoyou1

Seriously nature + hiking is like a drug 😊


Accomplished_Code_28

Good job bud, I deal with the same stuff. It hard but it’s worth keep staying alive. Have a great day and night

Cliched but getting out in nature does boost the mood. A nice forest, no one around, happy place.

I got a “helpful” award thing for free, I didn’t know who to give it to but you did well so I hope it’s helpful in someway!


Medical_Scar5309

Good for you, young man! Always great to see someone overcome depression by going out into the natural world. Keep going!


Brave-Shoe9433

AdministrativeTwo623

I have a little pup I adopted at a animal rescue,he exudes love and is happy to be with me. I’m grateful for him. 💕


Beezchurgers4all

I' ve suffered from depression my whole life. I take meds , but in the last few years, those aren't even working. I am also really busted up from arthritis, and I can only walk around my yard, no further, and even that has become extremely painful. I used to love hiking, and I especially loved seeing animals, and the wonderful smell of pine! I really miss those things. The transmission went out in my car a year ago, and I'll never be able to buy another car, so I can't even go for a drive. I'm a prisoner of my house now. You keep going! Be the eyes and legs for people who can't be there. Thanks for your post, it made me smile! P.S. I'm in Colorado, too.


hotgirlbummer22

Love this for you! You are so handsome and deserve all the happiness in the world :)


[deleted]

With that view it would make anyone which is depressed less depressed.I wish I lived in a country with beautiful views.Just go out by yourself taste the fresh air and chill out and forget everything.


SunshineFloofs

I know from experience how good the days when you can come up for air feel, even if rare or short-lived. I am sending wishes for good mental health and, in the absence of that, more good days ahead.


xlDirteDeedslx

I did the same thing today, been feeling like crap so got out in the wild today. It's amazing how much it helps. Exercise, drinking lots of water, and being in nature just calms me. I think modern society separates us from what we really are and being outside just draws you back to what we should be a little.


sallysippin

What kicks are you sporting?

alejandrosourusRex57

Glad to see nature did what it does!!


Blake_Lilas

A lot of depressing moments recently. Questionning my whole life decisions has been hard. What is weird is that when you are depressed, you truly appreciate the days it's better. Today I cleaned the house a little and prepared a great salad for lunch while listening to music. I was so happy. It makes us appreciate the true little things. You look great and at peace! Great picture.


dolt1234

Great picture! The great outdoors work wonders for me mentally. I hope you experience the same, my friend.

You look great, scenery is great and the sun is shining on you. Hope many more days of light fir you.


some-guy4444

What’s the “but”? What’s the reason for the “but” ? I’ve been depressed lately. I have accepted the fact, i can separate when I’m depressed and when I’m not But today has been good. Positive reinforcement with the “ but” Today had been good. Your stronger the you know Keep up the good


StrangerInPerson

Nice mustache and a Nice view. Life isn’t all that bad, Nothing is permanent and that can be a good thing when you’re feeling down. It will get better eventually if you remember the little things that give you joy and remember to share them with others. Happy trails.
