 The hole is just what is left over from digging yourself out of the last pile of poo that you got yourself into.  So you have within you the ability to get out of the hole . just one small shovel full at a time . ok..... It will always be a loosing battle if you try and get out all at one ... just baby steps ok .. And remember your not alone .

I feel the same way whenever I am depressed. It's so hard to feel any hope or remember that you ever felt better when you are in depression's grip.
I find it helpful when I am feeling like that to not fight the fact that I am feeling so bad. I tell myself, "Well today's just going to be another bad day, make yourself as comfortable as possible." Then I do what ever I can that day to make myself feel better. Go for a walk. Read. Talk to a friend who is supportive. Play games online. Eat something I like or go out to eat. Buy myself a little something I want. Read and post here. Also I find it helpful to break down time so I'm not looking at "the rest of my life" or "forever." I try to just concentrate and get through today, or this afternoon or the next hour. Break time down into a more managable chunk that is not so overwhelming to think about. When I break time down into something smaller and more immediate, I can often find some little postive thing to do or think that makes me feel better. And yes, you have to keep doing that over and over again.  But all those little things add up to eventually feeling better and building your resources and coping skills for the next depression.  At least that's how it's been working for me. Some people just have one or two episodes of depression then are never bothered by it again. Not me.

 I'd rather have a visit, note or pretty picture than an "I'll say a prayer" or a "god bless you." Doesn't make me feel better, no meaning to me for sure. Can't stop you from praying and blessing me, and if that makes you feel better feel free. But keep it to yourself please, don't tell me. And let's all respect each other's feelings. With kindness, support and "sweet dreamings."

I have no wisdom to impart, just that I empathize and can relate and give cyber hugs (if OK)

(((((((((((37))))))))))) Everyone posted such great advice, I think. Hang in there. Have you told yourself something good about yourself today? Start doing one randam nice thing a day for a random person. Hold the door open for a stranger, let someone go first at a stop sign, offer to help someone carry a heavy load. Helping others should help you to feel better:-)

What makes you say that 37....you have good traits. Start with the small stuff....you said something that made someone smile (which by the way you have done for me on several occasions in chat), or you are good with pets...whatever it is...say something every day...hopefully you will start believing it and help you feel better about yourself along the way. Will you try to work on it for me?

So sorry things aren't going well for you right now. I'm glad you can't stand the depression, I'm glad you just want to be normal -- it means that you know that the depression is not the norm. Neither is that feeling of wanting to crawl into a hole. Neither is that feeling in the pit of your stomach like your life and the whole world are going incredibly wrong. Neither is the belief that you have no good qualities. None of that is the norm -- it's possible to feel better than this, I promise. It probably doesn't seem like it now (I know when I'm feeling low, nothing anyone can say will cheer me up) but there really is a light at the end of the tunnel. Even if you don't believe it, repeat it to yourself anyways. Repeat it so loudly inside your head that you drown out all your other depressed thoughts. Scream it, if you have to. Don't believe it, if you can't or don't want to, but it can be a relief to be able to think anything else (true or untrue) that silences the depressed thoughts, even if it's just for a few minutes. Lots of hugs. I care and I hope that you feel better soon.

4 regi you are not a loser I may not have all the big words but YOUR NOT A LOSER YOUR NOT IN LIFE ALL BY YOURSELF YOUR LOVED WHETHER YOU KNOW IT OR NOT YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE A POSITIVE OUTLOOK OK ? I don't know if I was supposed to type it like that but you get the meaning I hope. we all have bad days but then we pick ourselves up and jump straight back into it - It is just the depth that varies
