What should I do when my life gets depressing?

I was diagnosed with severe depression just before I turned fifteen. I’ve been on anti-depressants for years now. but right now, they just don’t help me much. I’ve been having nightmares about losing the people I care about. it’s triggered something inside me. now I dread waiting for each new day to dawn. I can’t bear to think about anything in the future. I want to curl up into a ball and never talk again. I feel so scared about what’s going to happen to me. I think I’m having some sort of break-down. I can barely breathe as I type this message. I feel hopelessly lost and I feel like I’m running into dead-ends with nowhere else to turn. what am I supposed to do? I feel like I’m dying inside and the emotional pain is cutting through me like a knife. I probably sound stupid and pathetic. maybe I am.

Answer #1

Mm…I’ve been through depression as well, and all I can say is that I woke up one day and thought “I can’t let this beat me”. If you can’t bear the future, take it one day at a time. Think “I’m going to wake up today and make the most of what I have” and try to look for the good things in life, rather than the not-so-good. Try and remember there’s people there for you no matter what, and well, isn’t that worth trying for? x
