Depressed? I don't know.

I don’t know why. but I have been REALLY quiet, withdrawn, and mad lately. And I have absolutley no reason to. I try really hard to focus on my day, and the positve aspects of it, but I always fall towards the “HOW WOULD I FEEL IF I WERE DEAD?” question… I HAVE held a bottle of pills and a glass of water in my hands about 5 times. A voice in the back of my head says: Don’t you know you want to live…Don’t. Just don’t Do you know how BAD you would hurt Prerna? How about your dream? Getting in the honor roll? Your math grade is going up. I am terrified I will take it to a new level. I just dson’t want to tell my parent’s because they’ll just say I am being overly dramatic. Can anyone give me ideas to kicking this Depression away?

Answer #1

Find something that relaxes you and takes your mind of things. Find something you enjoy as a hobby or better yet, find a passion.

No need to stress over finding a hobby or passion straight away. Just maybe try new things. For example, ask a friend if you could go to a sport that they do and just join in a little, see if you like it. That type of thing. You will find something.

The buggery thing is, it IS pretty hard as depression does twist your thoughts, and you know that people saying “it could always be worse like starving people in africa” type thing isnt exactly helpful. I found time was a big factor, it took time to heal.

Also just the little things can help. Try walking in the sunlight a lot, go outdoors a lot. Just being in the sun, and I find it is often not as bad as when I am cooped up in the house on a rainy day. Eating healthy and regularly (3 decent meals a day… yes that means breakfast) you dont have to go crazy, just maybe instead of eating chips (or crisps or whatever) eat a fruit. Excersising a bit regularly would help too. Socialize, don’t stop seeing your friends. So imagine now, having a few of your mates around in the local park messing around with a soccer ball while eating an apple, compared to being stuck in the little house all day long while its raining outside with no sunlight… You get the picture.

Hope I helped!!!
