I want to snap out of it!!?

Question

i want to be happy again.

here's the situation...

ive moved to a new school as a highschooler (not my first year of highschool) and am nervous about cliques and fitting in... so i think im suffering from some type of depression because i now sit alone in my room and dont seem to connect with anyone, even my family and i just sit and cry and cry...

and im sick of it, i really really am. and im trying to be a more positive person, but it seems as if the more i try, the more i become discouraged.

how do i snap out of this depression (without meeting a psychologist/receiving psychotherapy)?

Answer 1

Call one of your old friends. Or maybe a relative, cousin, ext. Try talking to one of your  family memebers, dont talk about not fitting in, just talk about random things...

And no one ever doesnt have a single friend, you'll fit in for sure. No matter which clique, you'll always have that one true best friend

Answer 2

As someone who jumped from school to school, I found that I made friends quickly when I would join school sports and clubs.I made friends in my high school ski club that I am still friends with, 35 years later.

Answer 3

sometimes depression is not as simple as snapping out of it.  There is brain chemistry involved and you need to balance that out.  The only best way to do that is through psychotherapy, however that isn't the only way.  Meditation and excercise is another way.  With enough endorphines sometimes it can "Snap" back but it is a gradual process.

your  doing  the  right  thing  so  far  talking  about  it   ....it  helps   just  talk  to  anyone  let  it  all  out  your  not  all  that  diff  from  others  of  your  age   we  all  go  through  it  but   it  really  does  help  to  talk  ,,good   luck    

Answer 5

Relax. Everybody takes time to adjust to a new situation. It's not the end of the world because you don't know anyone yet. In 6 months, I'm sure you will look back on this and laugh. Give it some time and I'm sure you'll meet plenty new people.

Answer 6

I was in a similar situation almost a year ago:

After my first year of college I moved across state to move in with my father. He's a discouraging man and to make matters worse I was very far from my boyfriend and had virtually no friends. All I wanted to do was my 8-5 office job during the week and sleep all weekend. My cousin would invite me out but all I wanted to do was wallow in my self pity.

Which lasted for 2 months.

Finally I thought to myself, "There are opportunities out there. And why am I missing out? By choice."

Everything is a choice. And the choice is yours. I suggest reading on Law of Attraction: Whatever energy and effort you put out is what you will attract.

Put your positive thinking into action.

Me being a social butterfly I knew what I had to do to feel more in my element. Make friends & put myself out there.

You know what kind of person you are and what makes you happy.

Start feeding your soul what it needs.

You will overcome this.

You're young, don't let this depression take away your youth.

Good Luck :)

Answer 7

Sitting alone in your room is only going to add more to your potential depression and make matters worse. Try and get out in your neighborhood and meet other kids your age. Take a walk, go for a bike ride. Join some clubs at school. I know its hard to be the new kid at a school.  

Answer 8

I suggest you get involved with school activities and organized sports it's the easiest way to make friends that you have stuff in common with.

Answer 9

go meet someone, talk to someone in your class, start a conversation, make a new friend, invite them over yoru house, play a game or something...etc. have fun! make fun!

Answer 10

Sorry man!  Sometimes you gotta admit that you need help.  Cause it's only gonna get worse.

Answer 11

Just relax be yourself and go out and make some new friends. I know that is easier said than done, but give it a try.
