Herp, Parc, drop if guys. make your own thread, argue on walls or whatever. not here. its not the place.
Why is everyone on forums always just itching for a fight? Can we all not act like adults and help out a friend? ,_,
I can't help much but i hope you get through this. I'm sure youre a intellegent young lady with a lot of potential and it sucks that so many suffer from depression. Ive gone through it mamy times before but ive never reached for help. I wish you the best and hope you find your way out of it and into a better happier and healthier life style
its really brave of you to open up here. That in my view is your first step. I would recommend you not to pop antidepressants but to develop them. Like mentioned earlier you can do something you enjoy doing and meet new people. Better to stick to ones that bring positive vibes in your life. Ignore the haters and follow your heart. I wish you all the best in your rrecovery
True, it is good talking about it, to quote the song Courage by Superchick " You should know you're not on your own, these secrets are walls that keep us alone" Many people here are willing to help you. You never have to be alone. I promise, if you need to talk, you can always message me.
Thank you so much. I'm the only one in my grade who's actually suffering from depression, so connecting to people is difficult. I'm cynical and pessimistic by nature, so it'll be hard to adapt, and hence the reason why I'm choosing whether or not to take the antidepressants. ,_, I'd love to talk, just not on pimd. Silenced and I'm not going to say personal things on a public forum where everyone can see. That doesn't mean I'm going to spew sob everywhere, though. But thank you. ,_,
Depression is very hard to deal with. And it's also hard to believe others when they say they understand where your coming from, cause they don't. They don't know your problems or what you're going through. Although there are people out there who do suffer from similar situations. The best thing that helped me cope with it instead of relying on doctors is drawing and writing. It helps a lot, you can put all your emotion out on paper. Little by little, it helps. It helped me. Counselors are not gonna help. They will just repeat back to you basically what you told them. They are not very helpful and drugs will just create another problem for you, by getting you hooked until you rely too much on them. It's creating another problem on top of the one you have already. Talking to people with similar situations help. You don't feel alone knowing there is another person dealing with the same thing. If you need me, you can contact me anytime.
U SHOULD take the anti-depressants. 8 am a psychology major student. need help, just wall me Kayz. Btw, no major side effects.
Look, I'm very glad for all the suggestions. Exercise won't help. I'm not athletic, and I would probably collapse from laziness and exhaustion after running a single lap around the neighborhood. It's more of labor than something I'd actually take joy in doing, so I have to rule that out. Sorry! And then professional help... I'm working with the school's counselor. So far, I'm still the angry seventh grader he has to deal with, so no help with that. I can't get 'professional' help because my mom will literally go off the handle and flip the fuck out. Pills are a last resort. But seeing as how nothing's changing, I might have to take them. My mood is worsening, and I have my grandma pulling on my arm telling me to not think about suicide and that life is lived for others. :/
I guess I'm too young to be making decisions for myself, but I can't rely on support from others either. I guess now the main objective is to find other people who I can talk to?? Because I highly doubt my stupidly cheerful and happy peers suffer from the same mental disorder I do, and I'm probably one of the most antisocial dipwads in the entire school. ,_,
7th grade? OH SHIT. Worst year ever. It gets SO much better after middle school. Anyway, even taking a long walk qualifies under exercise. When I get depressed, I like taking long walks or bike rides and listening to my favorite music. The exercise itself releases endorphins, the chemicals that make your brain happy. :3
Oh, and in middle school, I started keeping a journal of sorts. Writing about your emotions helps to get them out of your system.
Eh, 5th grade was pretty much shit too. My teacher's favorite word was barbaric and I swear to God he loved to torture us by making us to the stupidest crap during science class. Dx I'll try long walks. :> Thanks!!
No problem. And that doesn't sound so bad for 5th grade. I'll trade you my 7th grade for your 5th grade. XD
