I need help. Please.?

I'm 19, and I don't know what's wrong with me. I feel so deeply depressed at times, so deep that I literally feel pain in my stomach and I'll cry myself to sleep. Please don't call me a whimp, I get annoyed by the smallest things...I often feel alone, out of place, like I will never find anyone who I can talk or relate to. I often stay in my room all day, and I don't feel like I'm good enough for

anything. Girls don't seem to want to date me, even though strangers have made it clear to me that I'm 'good looking' I just often fall into this deep state of emptyness, desperation, and pain.

I don't think my parent can afford a phsycologist, and I can't talk to them about this because I know they won't understand.

I don't know how much more I can take of this.

Update:

If this helps, I often have nightmares too...

Update 2:

For you guys stating I need to talk to God, I believe in God, but it's just not the same if you know what I mean.

    You need to find someone you can talk to.Sometimes just a good heartfelt conversation will make you feel better.It doesn't always have to be someone your age maybe an aunt or uncle or grandpa they all have a lot of wisdom and i'm sure would love to share with you and help you.I never could talk to my parents either at your age but I had a lot of older friends that saved my life a few times.

    Don't try to deal with this alone your not a wimp most of the people in this world have these feelings.

    You need to get out of the room if you can go for a walk or a hike or a swim don't listen to sad music.who knows who you will meet outside your room,get out and make some new friends.I know its hard but you have to make yourself so that you can save yourself.If you live on a farm in the middle of nowhere pick up a book and read something about adventure or the bible has a lot of inspirational stories. God has big plans for our future! whatever you do dont give up,you are just beginning life things will get better. Psalms 37:10,11

    All right, all right. You're not alone; young men and women your age sometimes go through these emotions, however, that doesn't make them natural.

    Your best bet right now is to make someone aware of your emotions and mental state. That is, someone close to where you are, not just here on the Internet. Family member, authority figure, anyone that can help you. You need to find some control over these emotions, but sometimes you can't always do it on your own. Even if your parents don't understand, perhaps you can tell them anyway and they can find someone who will.

    These feelings are so hard to deal with and they should not have control over you. It's so much energy and time wasted on unnecessary emotions that can ruin a person's well-being. Go find some help. Go online and look for places that might offer free counseling near to where you live. Really, there are such places!

    You just have to look and take the initiative if you really want to be helped. If you don't, then you won't find what you're looking for.

    Good luck. I really do hope you find a solution to your feelings and heartache. It's not fun but you must deal with it now or it will only get much worse. Prevent it while you can!

    If money is an issue dont see a psychologists, they are good but they cant give you medication. Go see a psychiatrist, they can write you a prescription for an appropriate medication. If you cant afford the meds check with your state they may be able to help. Sometimes it takes awhile to find a medication that works for your depression, you might need to try 5 different things before one works for you. In the meantime just be yourself, when you go out just enjoy your time and dont be so hard on yourself. Look in the mirror every day and say Im the man five times. Also look online for people who have the same interests as you. I wish you well, dont feel hopeless, your intelligent, youll figure it out, its just a bump in the road.

  • Yes, you are suffering from depression, but I don't know why. You state that little things annoy you. It could be because people call you names, and you do not know how to fight back. You don't seem to have confidence in yourself because you say that girls want to date you, but you feel that you are not good looking. Well, you are only as good as you feel. Start Believing In Yourself and start by dating some of those girls that ask you out. The Self Prophacy: If you think your sick you will get sick. So start believing in you. You are the best. You are the Greatest and some day you will be. Just like Mahamid Ali said "I am the Greatest" and he was because he believed it. The Bible says "Believe and it will come to pass".

    You may like to try a dose of homeopathic remedy known as Natrum Mur 30c and see if that helps. Natrum Mur 30c has worked in cases of deep depression associated with the relationship issues, lack of confidence etc. It may help u as well

    I used to feel really depressed and alone too. Having a relationship with God helped me a lot with that. If you wanna know how to establish one with him (or just talk), you can e-mail or IM me.

    There should be mental health workers in your county that work on a sliding scale based on income and other factors as well. Call Family Services or whatever it is called in your county as ask.
