I don't know how I'm functioning. At least once everyday I get hit by depression so bad that is physically exhausting. When that happens I get down on my hands and knees and literally crawl to my bedroom. When I'm in my room I just collapse on the floor. Doesn't matter that the bed is 2 feet away; I don't have the energy. I just lie there and try to find something worth doing but I usually end up thinking of all the reasons that nothing is worth doing. I try to self harm but I never have the energy to go get something that could do real damage so I end up with scratches or bruises instead of cuts. Sometimes I lie there and daydream about self harm. I think about the future and I panic. I'm always surprised when I reach a milestone (turning 18, finishing highschool, etc) without killing myself. Feeling happy is so unusual I'm shocked when it happens. Not even self harm makes me happy anymore. Maybe because I don't do it "bad enough". I keep isolating myself. I don't have the energy to talk to people. When I do talk to people I keep thinking that I'm annoying them and get all upset and anxious and mad at myself and self harm. I can't ask people to help me. I can't help myself. I feel stuck and I don't know what to do. I can't ask for help. I think I should go to the hospital but I just lay there and don't move. I'm lost.

Hello, Angelornot. Do you think you would benefit from professional help?

wow angel - that sounds very rough.

I think a lot of us have very low energy. But to the point of not being able to move 2 feet to the bed. Sounds like you are very deep depression.

HUGS
and
Gods blessings to you.

Probably but I don't know how to get it.
I think it's a combination of low energy and a complete lack of motivation to do anything

That sounds really rough. I'm sorry to hear you are hurting so badly. It's there anyone sounds you that can help you get help? Even if just asking a someone to call 211 for referrals? Or maybe calling them yourself and telling them a bit about what you are experiencing? As scary and energy-expending as it is to ask for help, you got here. (Hugs)

I don't want to talk to anyone. I'm avoiding my friends and my own brother.
