I think my life is probably at the worst it's ever been at the moment. I'm completely sick of college and am procrastinating at extreme levels to avoid facing how much I hate it. I barely speak with my family, only when I, or they, need something, and I spend most of the time alone because I just can't bare facing people, even "friends," which I think I have little of these days. I've even started to give up on exercise and sports because I don't see the point anymore.
Literally the only part of the day I look forward to is going to bed. I'm not even looking for any advice here, I just needed somewhere to write it. |

DenisDonnacha, I am so sorry! My "the doctor is in, 5-cents please" diagnosis is, of course, that you're depressed. Wow, probably wrong, but what can I say--it's amateur hour.
I think I remember your saying there was no help thru your school. That is so bad. Anything in the community? College is one of the worst places for depression. Is there a local hospital? You are at a point now that you need professional help. If there is no hospital or you won't go there, you must contact your family. You said you're at a point where you're in touch only if you need something. You need them. I'm not over-reacting here. When a person gets to the point that all he wants to do is stay in bed, that person needs help. Please, please get it. It's not real bad now, it could get that way fast. Roadrunner

thank you for the reply.
I don't really know what's wrong with me, I started to come out of it a bit though, I got around to doing some college work and restarted my exercise and am going to rugby training tomorrow. It's still not something I want to talk about with my family though

I agree with roadrunner- it sounds like you are very depressed right now! I'm so sorry that you are feeling this low, I have felt that bad before and I know how hard it is to live like that. If there is anyway to see a psych I would highly recommend it! I think it could really help you. In the mean time it sounds like your doing what you can- getting re-involved in sports and exercise is a great idea if you feel up to it. The endorphins could boost your mood a bit, and the social aspect should help too. If you dont want to talk to your family about it that's ok, just keep talking to people here- and hopefully a doctor in the near future? Best wishes!

I would be getting in therapy and getting on meds pronto. don't want this to implode on you. Major Depressive episodes are the worst!

I do think that's a myth about feeling worse after you stop taking them. The doctor's know how to take you off of them so you would have little or no effects.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
