Okay...so i don't know where to begin...
To be honest...i dont want to live. There are extremely short bursts of happiness in my life but those are followed by extreme numbness/sadness/anger. I don't want to live because life has no more meaning to me...i used to love going to school and drawing...and a lot of stuff. Now i just want to sleep or stare at things blankly. I get bored easily now...and it's harder to do my work. I act all happy around other people but surely and slowly the act is dying out. Things i used to get excited about barely hold my attention for more than a few seconds. I'm obese(by medical factors) and i cant do sports well at all. I feel as if everyone hates me and i mess up everything. If i say something i get teased or yelled at...if i dont i still get hurt. I constantly think of killing myself and i know i should get help but...i cant. I dont know how to obtain my medical card from my mom(im scared of her)...and i wont be the same once im on the medication...

It certainly sounds like you're severely depressed, CuriousssKent. I've had times recently where I haven't felt like living too (often). Please see a psychiatrist and therapist or counselor if you can, to speed up the process of you finding some relief.

Family and even a GC who have never experienced depression or has no training to help someone with depression will not understand.
When I had no one to turn to I would call a distress line and just being able to talk to someone over the phone helps and people who work for distress line have some training. I have also built a network of friends that I have trained to help me sort things out in my head. Sharing your feelings and thoughts... And my friends know to question my thoughts and provide me evidence that my thought process has gone wrong. These techniques are things a therapist can help you with. |

When I get down I have a plan
1) share my feelings and thoughts with trusted friends who help me sort out bad thoughts that are not true 2) make sure I eat and I'm not allowed to skip meals and eat my fav foods 3) listen to my fav music 4) goto the gym or go for a walk 5) not allowed to sleep in bed all day ... I have to force myself to do something When things get really bad I do go see a therapist to sort things out in my head. I'm on a really low carb diet but in bad days I jack up the sugar to get a sugar high ..... Thus us just something I figured out on my own that helps me |

You are in a really hard place. I would talk to a school counselor sooner rather than later. They can help talk to yr mom about really getting you mental healthcare. I'm so sorry yr not doing well. Keep coming back here. We really support eachother. Hugs

Yeah my mom says just be happy .. You were happy as a kid .. Why can't You be happy? Then my mom actually felt guilty ... That some how it was her fault I was depressed. But she would say ... It's not my fault your depressed....
For people who are not depressed it's just so hard for them to relate. At first I would feel so horrible but now I understand that she just doesn't get it .... I know my mom still loves me ... |

She asks why I'm so sad....then lectures without really listening to me. I'm normally numb/ angry...not sad

Everyone is different... But for me ... My mom or anyone in my family .. It's really hard to get support from them. I tend to text and talk to friends who also have depression type issues and they really understand how to pull me out of the darkness ....
With friends who don't have depression.... I had to train them based on what I learned from my therapist ... So they know what to ask me and help me through my thought process.. |
