  [quote babacup]I looked at your older post and see that you have been feeling depressed for a long time. Have you always been like this, or just since you have been at University?
  
  I also saw that you take anti-depressants, how long have you taken them, and are they helping at all?
  
  I have depression and take medication. I know this lack of desire, motivation, energy, and enjoyment that you are feeling. I have been there many times. I think what is important, is that you realize these feelings are coming from your state of mind and not because of life itself. It is hard to see the difference, but there is a difference. You can change your state of mind and end up living a happy life.
  
  
  You are getting educated and that is something good that is making a positive step in your future. You may not be in the right program for you. If the line of study your are pursuing is not the right one, what do you think suites you better? What kind of work do you see yourself doing in the future? What is your dream job?[/quote]
  
  i have been taking pills for almost a month now, they changed my behavior with people but not my thoughts and feelings.
  
  i started feeling like this since my second semester of university. now am in my fifth.
  
  how do you change your state of mind? i’ve tried changing routine and exercise, but it doesn’t seem to help.
  
  i don’t know what suits me better and its a problem.
  
  how do you overcome your problems when they consume you?
  
  Thank you for being open with me, i really appreciate it.

  i try to feel better, and did change my routine a little bit, i understood what makes me feel good and motivates me. i just don’t have it though. i don’t have a sensible motivation, and knowing what makes me happy doesn’t mean i can work for it, i feel like i just don’t have it, everyone else does though. it makes me feel worse
  
  [quote surge][quote the_mysterious9]this is what i am thinking as well, but it doesn’t make any difference. i am not being too dramatic abt everything, its just that there isn’t anything in my life that can give me any support, i can’t get any positive thoughts from anywhere.[/quote]
  
  That’s normal. That’s where the faith comes in. People who are depressed lack inspiration and motivation, but as soon as you just put a little effort into changing your routine and trying to feel better, those lacking things will become slightly more accessible. The positive thoughts have to come from you, and they will if you start to appreciate the stuff in you that will enable you to overcome this.[/quote]

  [quote surge]That is not reasonable. You can’t really justify it no matter how miserable you are right now because misery can be overcome. Switch majors, make changes to your life. You just have to have some faith in the ways that people get out of ruts like this, and do a few things differently.[/quote]

• I need an Escape.
  

  parental misunderstanding is tough thing, it can affect us deeply even with the silliest issues. i have a roommate who just talked to me about the same problem, and i could easily relate to him. what i could do to help him isn’t much though; i can only listen to him and show that i understand, then try to cheer him up, help him change his environment. so, my advice to you is to talk to someone, if not your friends, your mother. mothers always try to understand us, she is always a person who would help me with my problems with my father, and knows how make him understand the wrong way he sees things. then, try to go out with some friends. don’t go somewhere to just sit, play a game, take a walk, sit with someone who can make you laugh. the first thing my roommate would do is try to sort things out with the family, then he would go to cool his mind knowing that he has done everything in his power to solve the problem. i would just talk to my mother and listen to what my father has to say because he will never listen to anything i have to say.
  
  neither i nor my roommate could ever satisfy our fathers. the only thing i could say is try to talk to someone he listens to, like the mother.
  
  you don’t need to go out of the country, you just need to do something that would get your mind off of things.
  
  i hope this helped
