any tips to beat depression?? im taking medications, and it helps a little bit. but i still dont feel the old me again who enjoys talking to people instead of sucking the life out of them. im doing daily things like making homework, singing or drawing. sometimes i talk to people but as i said: my happiness just seems to dissapear right after it. and i get heavily hyper, and i try to prevent that. or sometimes i have the feeling people know that im so depressed, ofcourse they know because i told them, but i dont want them to think i dont like talking to them in fact i dont because it seems useless: i dont think they get happy of talking to someone depressed either.
i think i have social anxiety too, which makes it harder. but i can deal with that, if it was only social anxiety. i just want to FEEL again, instead of immediately feeling worthless when i did something "wrong" in my eyes.

I agree that maybe you need to talk to your Dr about your meds. My first diagnoses was depression, and they tried treating that for years before I was finally diagnosed with bipolar/depression and anxiety. One Dr told me that the reason the antidepressants never worked was because I needed a mood stabilizer along with it. It could be that you've even been misdiagnosed and need other meds added. Whatever you do keep up the fight. Don't let this monster win. Keep looking for answers til you find what works. Good luck to you!
