When I feel down and not-motivated, I got to Reddit's r/depression subreddit.
Those people are miserable. They go through some fucked up shit every day,

I go there, read some posts. And feel good about me because I'm not miserable as them. That gives me the motivation to get back to work.

Now I kinda enjoy reading them.

Are you causing harm? No? Then No.

If it helps you appreciate your own life, all the power to you. If you feel guilty about it, go do something nice for the world, you can't fix those people's problems.

No. I listened to a lot of a radio show where people could call in to talk about basically anything interesting. I remember a 19 year old calling that had a disease the doctors couldnt do anything about. Hes in constant pain, can barely move and at some point he will not be able to control his body anymore and just 'exist'. He talked about how he just wants to kill himself while he still can without causing too much hurt to his family.
The host afterwards talked about it a bit more and said that it really puts our problems of our daily life into perspective. He mentioned being annoyed over some little thing but then remembering how awful some people calling him have it.
Well I can really agree with that and I guess its similar to your story.

Firstly, Lol.

Secondly, I think the fact that you felt the need to ask this question means that that thread has slowly begun to effect you. Maybe you do belong there? Read one too many posts.. lol

I don't think what you're doing is wrong, I personally have this thing where if I'm having a shit week, I'll go out and help one of my friends who's having a shittier week.
I get 2 things out of this,
  1. Good Karma - helping a friend in need
  2. Something else to focus on - I get to forget about my problem
  3. When i see that their problem is much worse, i realize how dumb my problem actually is
Maybe you could implement my method, by just trying to help those depressed people.
