My depression is getting really bad, quickly. I'm depressed for almost all of the day, I never want to get out of bed, I am always tired, always want to sleep,& I've contemplating suicide a lot

Nothing really bad is going on in my life. It's getting better, but I keep getting more, & more depressed.

Sounds all too familiar....

Please keep talking to us.

Your depression is a demon telling you bad things....

Are you in therapy or on any anti depressants? those can be extremely helpful.

** HUGS of support to you **

If I can do anything - please let me know.

Oh I can most def def identify with you, without a doubt. I've been depressed for about 5 months now and like you never want to get out of bed, even thinking about the day ahead is enough to make me stay in bed. I've asked for help from my Psych Dr but she is pretty useless, saying that antidepressants don't work, so I have to make do with having a little ''chat'' to my therapist and that should make everything fine!! I don't agree, everything is NOT fine and any amount of ''chatting'' won't change things. It's getting so I don't even go to therapy and don't want to change clothes or wash now.

Are you receiving any help? If not why don't you try and have a word with your GP? If you are honest they may offer to treat you, or refer you on to a Psych Dr. My situation is not normal, most Psych Dr's will offer therapy and med help. Please try to have a word with a mental health professional. HUGZZ. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I have so been in your shoes. I know exactly what you are going through. If the suicidal thoughts are there please go to your local hospital. If you have a therapist call him/her right away. Once these thoughts become to strong depression will win. I know... I have been there too. Please take care of yourself.

You have to"want" to chat....Depression does't let you "want" to do anything....So I agree with you.

Back to your regularly scheduled thread......(sorry)

Hi Fox and the Hound, nothing really bad has to be going on in your life to be making you feel this way. Depression can just come from nowhere (although I do know you have been through some really tough times too....). The main thing is that feelings ARE there, and they are REAL!!
It is really good that you feel able to share them on here, but you DO deserve some help from professionals as well with this.
So do you think that you could start with someone e.g. a school counselor, your doctor........
There's no reason at all to feel worried, scared, ashamed, embarrassed.......(??) about telling someone. Just start by telling them what you've told us and take it from there.
We're with you all the way.

This right here^

The road to recovery is not easy. You will have to face those demons but make sure you are doing it in a constructive way. Your therapist is there to help you with that.

This is just for now, this is not forever, you have the power to make a difference and you're making first steps just by posting here. So congrats, I am proud of you.

It certainly doesn't take a reason or a trigger for me to go into one. It just happens. The switch just clicks for no apparent reason. It is proven that the earlier you can catch it the easier it is to treat it. My psychs have always told me to call as soon as I start to notice the symptoms and the depression coming on. That way maybe they can prevent it getting worse. Of course I always wait until I am at the bottom. They up my meds but for me it usually just has to run its course. I would reach out to your p doc right away.

Oh wow. I can relate to this so much. All I can say is hang in there, keep talking to us and seek professional help. We'll always be here to support you.

There was no trigger, it just came back really severely. I can't even have fun, I am always serious, & I take everything seriously. My friend even made comment about it.

Why did/How did it come out of nowhere? & Why is it so bad?

I am just really depressed, do not want to do anything, I'm suicidal...
