    Ironically that is how to fight depression, changing your mind. Any technique that has proven effective has been exactly: stop being sad.

    I’ve tutored at least a few people that have needed me to put their hand on a mouse and show them how to navigate an IDE.

        it takes daily practice but it can be “just”.

        of course, any recommendations given to people can be abstracted absurdly in order to dismiss them if they’re motivated to do so.

      Medication helps a lot of people, and CBT is very effective for others. I’ve never heard of a “technique” that’s effective against depression that can be reasonably described like that, but I’m not an expert. Would love some concrete examples.
