How depressed can you get?

I'm finally getting up for getting this low for about 3 years. But I feel that things are going so slow. I haven't meet with anyone yet. Got a personal advisor. Then things is I've only just realized how down I am. Also I have 3 weeks off school for less pressure. I hope that thins will speed up before I feel like giving up hope. For me being depressed there is no positives in life? I feel so alone! Anyone who is feeling the same way?

Miss A,

I have been there so please do not feel that you are alone. It takes time to deal with depression and all the aspects of it. I think that accepting depression as part of our life is the hardest. To know that this is something chemical and out of our control is most hard to deal with. For me it is anyway. All I can say is, hang in there. Hold on the any stength you have to keep you going because there are brighter days ahead. I promise you. Keep on posting sweety. You have us to lean on so you are never alone.

Keep on working on caring for yourself and letting people in. You are in my prayers

Yes, I understand fully. Agree with jen also. Hanging in there is so hard sometimes, but at least we're hanging in with others who understand. I'm having a rought time too lately and feel like things are moving so slowly. Just keep at it , I guess. HUGS!

Thanks everyone, just though I never thought at 14 I would get so depressed for 3 years now. I've watched movies of people getting depressed and going mental. But I never realised that I am! Now I have a couple of days until I get help with a team of people. Which I never had before. I miss my friends at school, but still if I go back again. I'll end up in a mess like before. Need to sort out problems with me. Good luck everyone with your life!

You'll get back to school sooner or later. (((HUGS))) glad to hear you're having ppl around you who will help... Of course a 14 year old wouldn't think to be depressed at all, much more for 3 years! It's unfortunate, yes.

As for the initial subject line... How depressed can you get? One thing you can be sure of, if you are still able to ask that question, you aren't as low as they go... that's a good thing!

Take care of yourself (and it sounds like you can now) and keep us posted on how you're doing, ok?

Check out the "sage advice" given to Jennie's "Nothingness" entry.......I think it's just what is......Miss A, when you're so far into the insanity of the blackness of depression, you have no concept of time or direction. Kinda like trying to look thru heavy fog & it feels like it's pulling you down forever

But ya gotta have faith in something, anything.......in A.A. they told me it could be a lightbulb
Hang on in there......you always have the sage advice from various ppl of PC ALWAYS!!

Been there, done that.........life goes on! (w/ a little help from friends --The Beatles)

I guess I have to hang on in there, it's just when you first seek out help it doesn't come to you that quickly. My refurel* can't speel that word has been sent to a number of people decided who's the person best to help me get happier in life again. One thing is I did something stupid a couple of days back ago it was a very big risk if I didn't stop. Which lucky I didn't over do it. Still I don't know why I did it in the first place. Which Is worrying to me and others. It just felt like I needed to at the time. I don't think I'm totally need help but I'm despit for someone to point me in the right direction! I agree its kind of a fog but somehow you can't see if there is an "way out" of it. Still the problem is I don't ever think of the positives in life and stuff. I can't believe three years I've been like this and still cope with everything. Have you ever tried to convince yourself that your really ok, when your not and don't think your never will be?

Miss A, can you talk to your mother? a sibling? anyone that you trust. can you see a therapist> maybe i missed that, if you wrote about it. but someone to talk to? someone to listen to you and not judge...xoxo pat

Yea I am in the mean time I'm staying home away from school waiting for an ampointment to be made, it's just I really feel that I can't take it anymore! (I really can't talk to me parents about stuff I CAN'T.)

Well I do understand the feeling about not being able to talk to parents... sadly that is often true. You stay safe for this time period, ok? Take care of you... I'm sure help is on the way.
