Please help me. Depression help?

I am so sorry to hear of your distress.

Here are some ideas that might help:

Keep two journals. One for writing down all your feelings, this is really good for clearing out your anxieties and getting all your war onto paper, you can delete it straight after if you need to, it's just good to really see your stressful thinking. And the other can be your gratitude journal - write down all the things you are grateful for that happened today.

Try doing Byron Katie's "The Work" - this is fantastic - I can't recommend her highly enough - she has a website with free worksheets or look her up on youtube.

Go to The Option Institute! Here is a link: http://www.option.org/custom:single,595

If you cannot afford their programs, write to them and they can help you out financially.

If you get panic attacks, sign up for the free emails on the panicaway website.

www.foodforthebrain.org is a charity and it has a free questionnaire you can fill out in order to get feedback on what you might be lacking in your diet.

For example, if you are lacking in Vitamin B, You can suffer the following symptoms: Feeling unreal, Hearing your own thoughts, Anxiety and Inner tension, Inability to think straight, Suspicion of people, Good pain tolerance, seeing or hearing things abnormally, having delusions and frequent mood swings. Read Patrick Holford's "Optimum Nutrition for the Mind"

Also, I cut out gluten from my diet and all the 'mental noise' has completely calmed down. This has really really helped.

(There is a theory that some people suffer from leaky gut syndrome, the wheat goes through the gut and straight to the brain, acting as a drug, which can make you feel 'crazy' with thoughts.)

Love and best wishes with everything.

First of all dear, you are NOT a lost cause! I cannot relate to you when it comes to the self harm part, but I have suffered with depression and mood swings over 10 years now, and I too have thought about suicide. I've also had the same feeling of worthlessnes as you describe. Please, please, please believe me when I say that YES, there IS light at the end of the tunnel. You desperately need someone to talk to and tell them what's going on with you, to vent to and get your feelings out in the open. You wouldnt believe how much that helps. I would highly suggest that (even though I know it's hard) you talk to your parent/parents and a therapist about this. As far as you saying nobody loves you, that's NOT true. Your family loves you and so do your 2 best friends even though they dont show it. You are very capable of loving and having another person love you and that WILL happen one day. Trust me! I hope this helps you. Take care.

You are too young to die.

Be positive honey.

Think positive, be positive, act positive.

Surround yourself with positive people.

Make new friends. There is more to life.

You are So young. You haven't made many mistakes.

Doesn't matter what you've done now, what matters is what you do next.

There is a beautiful World out there for you.

Study, Travel..make yourself look beautiful. Just live, smell the fresh air.

Set goals for yourself, and make it your mission to be HAPPY.

Everyday, think and be happy. It will soon start to work.

Exercise, eat healthy, and take your medication.

There will always be light at the end of anyone life if u open the window or door. remember in our life there is no rewind or playbacks. please go and see some Dr of some kind, Because life is short and u are a life that needs saving,good luck and god bless.

I can only imagine your inner dialog. Choose different. It sounds like you have made all these negative actions your identity. What we do and don't do directly affects how we feel. Start doing, and thinking things that will make you feel good about yourself.

You asked me for an answer and an answer you shall get! Read a bible.you say every one is angry or dissapointed in you! Well jesus wont turn away from you, he will embrace you with open arms! Suiside will never be an answer. because if you comit suiside you will be damned to hell.All i can say is god bless you and go to a local church please please go. if not for your sake for your family's!

depression needs sometime to heal, it cannot be instant healing, if you are feeling very bad, you van ask for your doctor for talking therapy session as well on top of the medication that he or she gives you, for your reference on other treatments:

plz try to meditate every day if you make that your life will chang 180~ if you want visit this site it can help
