I am recovering but its so hard!

Question

I am finally getting help for my depression. I have been suicidal, I have attempted suicide at least 6 times, I have even cut myself. I am on anti-depressants at the moment, but it usually takes 4 weeks to take full affect. Its hard because my best friend isn't talking to me, I really pissed him off and I am also losing this friend. Some days I just want to kill myself and be over with it cos that way I wouldn't have to deal with life anymore. I even have urges to cut myself every so often. I'm trying to be strong but I am losing my confidence. Im also learning to drive but since I have so many life problems its hard to focus. I feel so lost and alone, I dont know what to do.

Answer 2

Your description is a lot like me. I know what its like, I'm still struggling. Make sure you like your therapist, and don't lie to him/her, they're there to help you. You're not alone. Millions of people are struggling from depression. You don't need to be strong by yourself, trust someone, let them help you. I hope you recover, and if you need someone to talk to, just email me. Suicide is not the answer, even though it feels like the only thing left. You are getting help, which is good. Good luck.  

Answer 3
