Tiktok Caveman Mental Health Advice is TERRIBLE

Fun fact: when you sunburn and it peels, that's basically your body determining during the cell replication process that it is better for the skin cells to just die off than to become cancerous

That’s actually what happens to most cancer in people. A cell becomes cancerous fairly often, but the vast majority of them are killed off by the immune system

Yes! I accidentally found this channel a few months ago, can't recall how. I'm 52, I'm pretty aware our society values youth. I get it. But it's so refreshing to hear this from Cooper. Because dammit women are beautiful lol. Two other things. Hearing him speak on depression is very affirming. I have depression and am in the mental health industry. It's so important to have support. And if you don't have it in your life, hearing it feels great. Also...does this Captain dude think UV rays = vitamin D? Maybe he thinks you can't soak up vitamin d through sunscreen? I'm so confused. It's a great tool for use in our depression toolboxes. But... Not in place of psychopharmacology or therapy. Geez this guy... edit if this is addressed later I apologize.

So refreshing to finally hear someone criticize the whole “gO in tHe sUn anD yoU WoNt bE dEprEsSed” for ppl with clinical depression. As someone who struggles with it, nothing is more degrading than ppl like this saying well if you go outside and eat clean you’ll be better! Oml I wish that was the case. Edit: just to clarify, I’m talking about the people who think a walk or some Sun will cure a clinical disorder I’m not trying to say that some healthy habits like physical activity, going outside, eating healthy, etc won’t help supplement the treatment of depression but it’s not some curable no big deal thing where you get a little Sun and it all goes away 🙄 tired of the toxic positivity surrounding depression

[@pluvial4066]

See on one hand I totally understand this comment, but on the other I also do understand the people saying it. (When they're not saying it to the extent of the dude in this video 😭) My dad was someone who would say this a lot and at least from my perspective it wasn't him trying to tell me if I went outside I'd instantly feel better, what a lot of people are trying to say is that getting out of bed is the first step. The sun isn't going to fix everything but getting out of bed and going outside takes so much effort that if you bring yourself to do it the fog could get just a little lighter and you could feel just a little better than before you did that day. I'm just typing this because as a kid I definitely misconstrued why my dad was saying that and the message he did mean. Because I would just lay there and tell him he was wrong going outside wouldn't fix anything, and we were both right. It won't FIX anything, but if you have enough motivation to go outside that day take it. Even if it's just to make that day just a little different than yesterday, when the days are blurring together that can help. It can be really hard for people to word themselves correctly around these types of topics, but at least sometimes this comment can come from a place of genuine care. But it really does make you feel like shit when it's worded wrong😭

[@genderfluidlygay7146]

Like bro, when I go out on a walk (mostly), I'm STILL depressed (like yea, no shit)😂 and I notice happy ppl and happy families (even tho I'm judging them only by how they present themselves outside but still...yk?) and that just makes me even MORE depressed lol (but yeah, doesn't take away the fact that vibing with my music on in my headphones 🎧 while walking does make me feel better).💀👍

I suffer with clinical depression. My episodes are debilitating and usually last months (my longest one lasting over a year). When I’m in this state I am extremely prone to breakdowns, intense mood swings, lethargy, an inability to take care of myself, and doom filled thought patterns. Sometimes I will get out of bed and do small things to make myself feel a little bit better, like go for a walk or play with my dog or talk to a friend or sit outside for a bit. But some days, I cannot physically muster up the energy or will power to walk the length of my bedroom let alone go outside or exercise. He’s right, those things do help, but depression leaves you unable to do the things that will help you a lot of the time. That doesn’t make us weak or incapable. You wouldn’t tell someone with the flu that a lemsip will entirely cure their flu. It soothes it momentarily but it isn’t a cure. Thank you cooper for being so understanding about those struggling with depressive disorders like myself. And to anyone suffering right now, remember that you’ve been here before and you got thru it, it’s so ungodly difficult but we’ll make it thru eventually. You’re not alone, even tho that sentence can feel so condescending sometimes when you’re in the thick of it.

When I was stuck in a 4 month long depressive episode, I got the spontaneous idea to take a long walk outside. It kicked my out of the depressive episode, but I’m also on antidepressants, receiving therapy, and deeply spiritual. Not everything is cured by the outdoors entirely on its own.

Wow, that’s almost exactly what I went through! It’s nice to know I’m not alone out there! I went on a run despite everything in me telling me to stay home and crawl under the covers.

As a person who grew up hating medication because they misdiagnosed me or never cared to change my medication when I was having serious cases of psychosis and genuinely beleiving I was talking to another person in my head, I also was highly on the edge about medication. But ya know what? I finally stood up for myself and looked for someone who genuinely wanted to try and look for what would work and eventually we found a way to tackle my depression with a mix of medication and other forms of self help or treatment in general. I would be dead if not for the things I was able to find to help me, INCLUDING MEDICATION. It isnt supposed to be the cure, its supposed to just help boost you in the right direction. Cus not everybody's bodies can even function without help. These people are sickening to me because they encourage people young and impressionable to not trust any form of medication and to fight it on their own. There is a fucking reason why more men with depression end up taking their lives, because they have these kinds of rolemodels that tell them to suck it up till eventually they think "If this is how life is, then fuck living" As a woman, even I was effected by this and it didnt even feel like they were ever pressing that mentally down my throat personally so its just horrible to keep perpetuating that people need to suck it up. Youll never understand depression till you have it, and I dont blame you for not understanding it, but since you dont you shouldnt tell people who are that how to live.

Meds are definitely an important asset for helping many mental illnesses, but they’re so overprescribed nowadays. It seems to be the end all be all for a lot of people but it’s not always the only answer. The guy in the video is a bit extreme but he makes a good point. Natural remedies can be very effective in treating all sorts of illnesses and diseases. Exposure to sunlight is unbelievably important to both our mental and physical health. Now spending all day in the sun is gonna come with some problems for sure but short stints of exposed sunlight can improve mental health. We get vitamin D from sunlight exposure which is a crucial vitamin for your mental well-being. 20-30 minutes of sunlight exposure a day will give you a healthy level of vitamin D that will most likely have a positive effect on your mood. Again, I’m not anti meds or anything, im just saying this because the comments seem to think that sunlight= bad and meds are the only option, which isn’t true. Sunlight and vitamin D are so very important to our wellbeing, especially now where the majority of humans are severely vitamin D deficient. Yeah the guys a bit extreme with it, but so are the people saying that meds are the only thing that help treat depression, which is an unhealthy way to look at it. Meds and sunlight exposure can be used in conjunction with each other to help depression, so don’t rely on only meds
