Hey everyone, I'm new here.

*Sigh* About 3 months ago my girlfriend of 2 and a half years left me... It broke my heart and completely trashed my world. The result was that I fell into a deep pool of depression and despair.

I've been fighting this sadness for 3 months now... I've had victories over the problems, but alas I keep falling apart. I'm just exhausted.

I've tried everything. I've fallen back on my faith, and it helped for a while, but it still did not fill the void and darkness inside. I've tried reading books on relationships, and they have only made me feel worse. I've tried positive visualization, and although it works, eventually I fall back down and collapse again.

I just want myself back now, and I can't even do that. I don't know what I can do anymore to get myself back to normal, and I'm just overwhelmed by the effects it's having on my daily life.

I know there is a lot of good happening around me, but I've having so much trouble focusing on it. I can't get motivated to do school work anymore, so I fight through every assignment.

I've also tried taking on new activities that should be exciting, but I can't get any of my friends to do them with me. I'm also a bit afraid of talking to my friends about it anymore, because I just don't want to ruin their "sunshine" so to speak.

I just want this to pass already... I can't even get a good grip on who I am anymore. I don't know how to go back to me.

A little help?
