  1. It's okay...really it is.

    I'm sorry that you're feeling the way you are. I kind of feel the same way....I say kind of because I'm trying to make it better. I use to hate looking at myself in the mirror, I thought I looked like a monster. I would always sit around and just..think which wasn't very bright because I got more sad and depressed. There were a couple of times when I had extreme suicidal thoughts, I even tried once but I didn't go deep enough and after that I just got scared. I use to hate smiling and laughing, but I'm learning to love it again. Things will get better, they will. In the end, for everyone in some way things will get better. I really don't have any suggestions because I hate sports and stuff, never worked for me, and I've never been on meds because my mom doesn't want me to be on them, but all I really did was get rid of all the things that made me sad and depressed.

    If you ever want/need to talk to someone my e-mail is the same as my display name.


  2. i too suffered from depression. i had all of the feelings you did. i also didnt know why it was happening. the reason for most depression is chemical. it is a lack of neurotransmitters which recept teh "feel good" neurons. one importnat thing you should know is that this time will past before you know it.

  3. a month and a half is a long time to feel bad, but it is a very short time compared to an entire life. don't give up. you will feel better. sometimes even a day makes a difference. there is no good reason for you to hate yourself. none. Forgive yourself for whatever you think your mistakes were. everyone makes mistakes and no one is perfect. be your own best friend for  a while if you have to, but take good care of yourself.  I hope you soon feel better. And I hope you find a way to work things out with your dad. Losing your gf too. You have just had a lot of bad things happen to you all at once. No wonder it has knocked you down. But you will feel better. It will not always be this way.  

  4. Let me tell you friend you have done one thing right. You have not given up! That is victory number one! Now, put the mirror away. Find what you want in life. Take it. Your break up with your girl friend is always a traumatic thing..but you will get over this by looking for new opportunities. They exist around every corner, if you just put that mirror away and take action. Good luck. You will win! Do you know why? Because you have refused to give up. And for those who refuse to give up, a great reward awaits them. Success. It is an unbroken law of the universe itself. Apply it in a continuous manner, and victory lies just around the corner for you. Don't dream it. BE IT!

  5. i was like this too for a while. i dont know why cause nothing was wrong in my life. my life was perfectly fine. but then i felt sad all the time and alone. i wasn't happy at all and had to put up an act in front of others. but it eventually went away somehow.

    my best advice to you is to find an activity such as a sport or type of dance that you want to learn and think is really cool. take lessons and as you improve day by day that sport/dance will build up your confidence. if you go on competitions/games/matches you will feel competitive and want to win and that will kinda be like your goal that you work hard to reach.

  6. the same thing happened to me i was so depressed for like a month and i hated my self i try ed killing myself and after i tried killing myself i realized  i did not want to die and i was not depressed any more

    can u plz help me'

  7. Not giving up is the most important step, so it's excellent that you're doing that.

    Fortunately depression is very treatable for most people, so if you haven't had success with therapy I would suggest trying different therapists. If you've only been trying to work through this for a little over a month and you're discouraged, the best piece of advice I can give you is to put it into perspective: recovering from depression takes time and patience - it won't happen overnight. It can take a while to figure out what treatment works best for you, whether it's medication, therapy, or both. I personally recommend both: especially in your situation. Be persistent and help your doctors help you by giving every treatment a chance.

    If you've bounced around between several treatments in six weeks or so and nothing has worked, then it sounds to me like you simply haven't stuck with any one thing long enough to see if it works. Most medications don't even help you much until they've been in your system for several weeks, and even then it can take a while to make sure you're taking an appropriate dosage. (Making small adjustments over time to your medication may be necessary to see results, much like tuning a guitar that is seriously out of whack.) Just hang in there and keep trying - and let your doctors know how you feel on a regular basis. Keep a journal of your thoughts and feelings from day to day to keep track, if necessary... and above all, don't be scared to ask for help!

  8. sry no idea i only have a few things i love and it doesnt include people...find something fun and awesome if sports doesent work try drawing writing maybe computer games i found t.v shows i cant live without anything at all will work just as long as it keeps you going...

  9. Whoo-boy. One of the things you have to do is calm down. Now you have climbed one hill and that is recognizing that you have depression. Another one is that you haven't given up...yet. Now here is the most important thing: don't. Keep trying.

    You've probably heard this before, and are about ready to punch the next person who says it, but you need to. Put away that mirror (it never helps because you will always find something wrong when you are depressed.) and go away for awhile. Take a trip somewhere or go to a concert. Keep your mind occupied.

    Sometimes you do need to hit rock bottom. I really know how you feel because I've been there, done that and bought the t-shirt. My boyfriend and I broke up about the same time I was trying to kill myself, my dad dislikes everything about me and I have had a weight problem. Totally know how you feel and I'm just about out of my funk.

    Try to get away from your environment and go somewhere. Read. Go meet some new people. You probably think that everyone doesn't need you and the world would be a better place, right? Well, that's not true.

    Just try to live one day at a time. I won't promise that you'll feel better, but just try and remember that someone in the world needs you. You might not see them now, but down the road, they will need you. Someone always thinks the world of you.

    Get better and don't focus on the negatives too much. Get better. If you need more help, contact me (click on my name and email me) okay? Don't give up. *HUGS*

  10. well have you been to the doctor been on medication?

    there is allways something that you can do i know what you are going through i had depression when i was 19 i was the same i wed on medication and it helped but i have also got anxiety disorders so i have to deal with them aswell.

    trust me never give up i thought about suicide plenty of times but i love my family and gf to evan go through with it.

    in a way taking your own life is selfish think of what it would do to your parents and the ones that love you.

    the best thing to do is go to a doctor and they will help


  11. Never give up.  Life is definitely worth it, we all go through really tough times, sometimes to grow and become a stronger person because of it.  Depression is hard to deal with, especially when you feel so alone but you dont have to be.  There are people who care about you and love you, and it kills them inside to see you hurting like this.  I have been through two depressions, and Im only eighteen.  I have survived both, but I could never have without the people I love, mainly my friends.  They've been there through all my tears and two in particular have saved me from throwing it all away.  Im not saying its easy, its not.  Depression hurts.  But you are so much stronger than you think.  All you can do is focus on the now.  Dont ever look back on the past, because thats something you cant change.  Your future is bright, and you will live to see it, you will live to achieve the things you want to.  Just dont give up!!
