How to stop my depression?

The other night I went to bed and couldn't get to sleep and laid there and became increasingly depressed. The next morning when I woke up I laid in bed until like 1:15 because I had no reason to get up.

Since then I've been doing nothing but trying to...

busy myself with relatively fun things to do, and basically trying to distract myself from my depression. This messes with my sleep schedule some, as I try putting off going to bed in fear that I'll lay there and be depressed.

I really need to get a job, but thinking about having a job makes me depressed, so I've been avoiding that whilst trying to distract myself from being depressed.

I don't know what to do about this depression, and I'm afraid to tell anyone because chances are they won't take me seriously and will get all mad because my family sucks and thats how they operate, and even if someone did, I'm not sure how it would help, as once several years back when I was frequently depressed they put me on anti-depressants, which made me even more depressed, and sent me to a psychiatrist, who did nothing but basically make me want to commit suicide.

No, I'm not going to commit suicide. I'm just depressed, and it makes life suck. And my life is really boring, and I want to leave. Right now. I'm sick of this place.

You woud need a hard work e.g. on a galleon at the oar.

you need to see your dr.
get some counselling.
maybe you should ask for a different sort of anti-depressant.
some may suit you better than the ones you took before.
I have severe depression and bulimia, so I lock myself away from the world a lot.
I swing between insomnia and sleeping/staying in bed too much.
I've actually been classed as unfit to work, cause I just can't handle working and being outside around others.
good luck.

Hmmm theres no magical cure for depression and if there is MESSAGE ME!
honestly, everyone goes through turblant turns and time
wake up smile because your alive take a bath find a job and get drunk
with friends of course

Want to try something DIFFERENT ???
just do the following RIGHT NOW ;

1--chant 'hari om'(hari as in HURRY om as in HOME without the 'H') do this repetedly a point will come where you will feel like you just want to close your eyes ( in that case case do it).At this point increase the number of O in om like HARI OOOM then HARI OOOM so on.when you chant this VEDIC MANTRA then remain silent (no thinking!,fidgeting,moving,etc) for an amount of time taken to chant this one mantra.this looks very very simple but its effects are very very very large (even ALBERT EINSTEIN would not had imagine it !!!). this is called 'CHUP SADHANA' I learned it from 'param pujya ASARAMJI bapu'.---http://www.asharam.org also read JEEVAN RASAYAN a book from ---http://hariombooks.goog... tihs will help remove all weakness from you,believe me millions have obtained benefits from it ,literally.

note: women durimg their periods are not to chant OM but they can chant HARI

this I say to you on basis of teachings of 'param pujya ASARAMJI bapu'
