Hello 19 year old with autism and depression here. Im on pills given by a doctor, ive tried therapy, dnd even. I just feel depressed and im not sure why possibly hormones or maybe that fact that i haven’t accomplished anything in my life or even done anything, also im broke to say. Everyone tells me to workout but i dont feel motivated to even do that plus its super hot outside and i cant afford a gym, maybe im making excuses…

I just feel lost on where i should be right now in life and im clueless on what the next steps are.

    Only if avaliable through licensed professionals where you are, you might want to consider researching psychedelic therapy. Look up new laws in New Zealand for inspiration.

      I am a huge advocate of psychedelic therapy, but I would be a bit wary of it for younger adults unless OP is willing to submit to a study.

      By all means, OP should talk to a professional about it, but it still seems like it would be in an experimental phase for that age range.
