What’s wrong?

I don’t know. I’ve just lost interest in most things. I don’t care about things I used to love. I guess that’s what depression is about. I don’t what to do really.

Ok, I’m starting to regret this. This post here I mean. I won’t waste your time. And I won’t hurt myself. Not tonight.

I know I’m not alone and that’s a little help I guess. Or well, it’s soothing in a way. I want professional help but I’m way too scared to reach out. How do I even do that?

And I know that hurting myself doesn’t help. But it’s like a moment of clearness. A moment that is. Afterwards you just feel worse.

yea man we all get down sometimes, dont let it be the end of you…. you probally still have a full life ahead of you to live just be patient.

I know the everyday stresses that get you down, cause i live that stress all the time, but every once in awhile something great will happen, just keep going something will eventually pop up….

another thing I gotta say is get active and get out there, even if you make a fool out yourself, you could always meet somebody…

life will hand you failure alot, but if you dont try you cant fail or succeed

and you will succeed eventually just be patient, pace yourself and relax

Thank you, all of you. I’m so moved because you all seem to care more than some of my friends do. Which actually is somewhat sick since I’ve always considered my friends to be great.

I dont know your friends, but i wouldnt down them…. maybe its just me, but it seems like good friends dont often talk about their depression with each other i dont know why but that seems to be the way it is.. friends should help eachother on that matter, but friends are there to have a good time and depression is certainly not a good time

I can tell you right now i feel exactly the same, for me it kind of feels like all the colour drained out of my life. There isnt that much i hate its just that nothing is interesting or good anymore.

I doubt i can say anything that will help but there are a lot of people feeling like you

PheeGee, if I was a girl, I would want to be as gorgeous as you! You have a huge life full of endless possibilities.

Thanks, i dont really know what to say to be honest :)

Exercise helps, but i know its hard to get the motivation. But anything that could get your serotonin levels up will help.

The way to reach out would be to talk to your GP and they should be able to refer you to someone they feel should be able to help you.

I think sometimes you need to talk to people who have gone through it and a lot of people on here have, I’m sure your friends are great but if they cant understand what you are going through it might be difficult to show they care.

Yeah. You’re right. I have to grow some and just get help for this I guess. I’ve thought about it for a while but now I know I have to do something before it gets out of hand. Thanks :)

Depends on the friend really. The guy I was talking to today usually gets me but for some reason he thought that insulting me would be super fun this time. And he made me feel like all I ever do is whine. I don’t. I keep a lot of **** locked up.

he prolly doesnt mean it… people say things they dont mean all the time

Yeah. The worst low is over and I’m sort of back on track. But I’m getting help. Thank you all!
