get out of depression

I’ve been depressed for at least five years. I can’t even get over it because it’s my family and the feeling that I won’t ever be able to get to where I want to be that’s causing it. I put such high standards on myself, and I can’t help it. I’m a junior in high school, and I can barely concentrate or stay awake these days to do homework! Lately, I’ve also been noticing that I’m drifting away from my friends; I’m in the school library practically every lunch because I didn’t do/finish homework from the night before. Anyone have any tips to regain concentration?

I’ve been depressed of and on and right now it’s full on darkness..I can’t lift myself out. I’m tired of feeling this way, tired of the constant crying, tired of the sleepless nights. I want to find a way out but only one seems to come to mind and I have thought many times about it but haven’t taken that final step yet. I don’t have anyone who I can talk to that understands. I really want to find a better way out.

cheers

But yesterday it knocked again at my door leaving me completely wrecked. I was surprised to feel its force,I was baffled,helpless in its clutches, completely possessed. I felt so weak that I started crying and after that I decided to take some antideprassant. BUT at the very moment I snatched my hands from medicine box,decided not to go for medical help. It ate my whole day bacause I could not leave my bed. But finally in the evening I felt some improvement in me and I went for a short stroll in nearby park. YES! I could beat it. But why did it happen again? Now what should I do to not fall in this situation again..

hi i m very much depressed after writing Cat2008. I could nt solve the paper that much to get a call from iim and i had huge expectation from CAT2008 .after this i have left many coming mba entrance examination.though i am working as engineer in PSU. Now i donot have any goal in my life ..

I’m really glad i came across this site. I’m a college student too and feel overwhelmed. I feel like a failure. Been screwing up in school and feel hopeless. I isolate myself and avoid everything which gives me more anxiety and problems. It’s good to know i’m not alone. I agree with everything Mike85tyler said, going through the same thing i hate that i’m going to be the last one to graduate and thats making me more depressed. I definetely did not thing it was going to be like this when i packed up to go to college and thats probably why i have so much guilt that i didnt measure up to my standards and everyone else’s. This is so bad. My family keeps reminding me how terrible it will look knowing i’m the last one to graduate. It does seem like i’m self sabotaging every time things are going well i find a way to screw it up. I tried just about everything and nothing has a long lasting affect. I don’t know what i get out of being so down and avoiding life. But things are so bad that when i wake up in the morning and everything registers i just put the blanket over my head and turn my phone off. I just dont want to deal. Feels good for awhile but it gets worst from there. I hope i get over it and good luck to all of you.

Yes my old friend depression,which is inseparable from my entity..It has come back slowly and tried to gripped me again in its ugly claws. Yesterday when I was sitting with my friends for general chit chat..all of sudden tears started flowing on mention of my old friend..who is annoyed with me. My friends were also amazed to see my reaction.They were asking the reason of my outburst. I could not answer them but I could easily trace out the symptoms of my this behavior.Today I am feeling low,trying hard to ignore its calling.

Hello

What if you can’t conform to multiple levels of social standings, class, race, religion. how can you stay strong and true to you-self and your values. Especially when you no longer care, who or what you are…. bottom line I need balance and support from real people- pleople how don’t pussy foot around delicate issues, or sugar coat the real problems.. I have doubts, concerns, panic attacts and a real depression that I need to gain some true insite on. I wore then willing to do the work even if it kills me.

I am a funny person & like friends around
