I've struggled with depression and social anxiety for most of my life and now im probably at my worst point yet-
still feel rubbish from my dad dying last may, im at a uni miles away from my friends and family, and the few people i spoke to at this uni have recently started cutting me out of plans and ignoring me with no explanation- this includes housing plans so i now don't know if i'll be able to find anywhere to live here next year which means i may have to transfer uni..

i don't know what to do- i've spent all night crying, freaking out, occasionally dissociating from everything and just sitting there kind of emotionlessly, and i also had to be talked out of going for a walk at 3am because i was at the stage of not caring if anything happened to me..

any advice?

This sounds very tough I'm sorry about your dad

Is there a university counsellor or a doctor you could speak to? And please keep posting here, this is a good place for support

I think talking this through with a counselor or therapist would be a good idea. Sometimes just having an objective person to talk things through with can help to sort things out. I often have difficulty sleeping at night. When I do I walk slowly around-&-around our dark & quiet home for an hour or two. (Sort-of a walking meditation, if you will.) It has occurred to me, in the past, to go for a walk outside. But I don't do it. Chances are it would be safe enough. But the thought just feels uncomfortable.

I see this is your first post here on PC. So... to PsychCentral… from the Skeezyks! May the time you spend here be of benefit.

PsychCentral is a great place to get information as well as support for mental health issues. The more you post, & reply to other members’ posts, the more a part of the community you will become. Plus there are social groups you can join & chat rooms where you’ll be able to connect with other PC members in real time (once your first 5 posts have been reviewed & approved.) Lots of great stuff! So please keep posting!

Welcome to PC.

Sorry you have so very much to deal with, especially losing your dad at a young age.

I agree with Fuzzybear, talking to a counsellor is a very good idea. They may be able to direct you towards help with accommodation too.
