Things couldn't be any worse. I really want to die. Nobody cares about me. I lost a couple of friends, and the one friend I had left is kind of distant with me. I guess the domino effect. People know your weak spots and they attack you.
I don't have any reason to live. I'm really tired of my life. Meds aren't working. Sometimes there really is no hope. How much longer can I suffer? Is suicide justified when there is nothing left to do? Just pain and suffering. |

I don't think suicide is justified in the case of depression. The episode can pass. It make take months or years but there is brightness on the other side.
It's hard to maintain friendships with depression. People don't get it and aren't sympathetic to our needs. There are people out there that could be a new friend. Have you thought about going to a support group?

My friends don't know I have depression. Sometimes things are so hopeless that there is nothing one can do.

During the dark times, its hard to see the light. Hold on, things will get better.
Ive been there, as many of us have. My thoughts are with you. If friends are distancing themselves, maybe reach out to a professional instead. My friend group has become non existent over the past few months. Try a group therapy perhaps? Even a local meeting AA/ NA? Just a place to surround yourself with others who get what you are going through? Good luck! You are in my thoughts. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk |

Hi Tangerine,
I feel for you. I wonder what happens to people you care about. Do you have people you care about and find that they do not reciprocate your feelings or you are like numb and do not care about anyone?

I am SOOOO sorry you are here Tangerine. I have no words that can change how you feel, but I can say that no matter how much you feel like nobody can understand, I do believe many people here not only sympathize and empathize, but have actually been there. I myself am fighting this battle as we speak also, with the difference that instead of having people leaving me, I just haven't had any real friends (aquaintances only), so I do feel for you as I think it is easier for me to have been without then have people be there then leave. I am so sorry that is happening to you. Of course nobody knows the future and being in the bottom of the pit right now myself, the only thing I can say that I do believe for sure is that no matter how things are right now, they do change. Personally, I have only had a few times of thinking I might get out of the pit, but even those few times make me KNOW that change is possible!!! The only way to have NO CHANCE at change is if you aren't here anymore to have a chance, so no matter what, don't take that chance away! Hang in there and do what I am doing right now and drive the poor people of psychcentral crazy with lots of posts if that will get you from moment to moment until you feel a little better. I also hope you are contacting somebody about new meds to see if that will help. So no matter what, don't give up!!! |

Don't give up, there are people here who care. People who are not judgemental, they understand, they are willing to listen and help. They may not be there physically but they are there when you need someone. I don't have friends either, I am pretty much a loner so I get it. I was where you are just a few weeks ago. I am still fighting depression but I do not want to die. I really think it is because I have new meds and psychcentral. You can make it through this! ((((Hugs))))

I'm right there with you Tangerine. I wish I had the right advice but I would just suggest spending as much time here as you can. It's been helpful for me especially the fast few days when I have been really low. What also helps is to force yourself to do anything to try to keep busy, and take your vitamins. There are some good threads here about supplements that are really good and informative. Hang in there!

Tangerine-
I totally get what you're saying, and I often wish I had a friend or two who could at least listen to me. Most of the time, I don't want or expect advice or help, just someone to be compassionate and empathetic. If you ever want to PM me, feel free. I don't have any answers, but I can listen and empathize! Hang in there as best you can!
