Seeking medical attention should be the first thing that you do if you feel it's serious. WHile I haven't had counseling, just being to communicate your thoughts to someone else helps.

Personally, I have had terrible days and sometimes weeks in the past where I didn't want to do anything but stay inside and away from everything.

While I still have some days like that, I have gotten much better over the past few years by surrounding myself with the things I love to do. Once I became more active (gym, or just generally being outside), it also helped tremendously. There was a scientific study I remember reading that sunlight entering your eyes enhances your mood.

SirenaBlusera agony auntNo one can give medical advice on the internet, but we can listen.

You need to talk to a professional counselor dear. Don't despair if you don't "click" with the first one; sometimes you have to go through a series.

I have been there, and many people have been where you are. You're not alone, even if you feel that way. Things aren't always what they seem. I can promise you though, that you're not alone and that there IS light at the end of the tunnel.

Brunel absolutely hit the nail on the head. I wish you'd share a bit about what's going on in your life. You may send me a PM, or PM any of us if you don't feel comfortable posting this on a public forum.

May I ask if there's anything going on in your life that may have triggered this?

I went through something very similar and I know what caused it. I had just graduated uni and returned from studying abroad. The fact that I feel things a LOT more intensely than most people doesn't help either. But eventually I "saw the light."

I don't want to offend you if you're not a Christian, or religious at all but my mom says that "the man upstairs" will always listen to you.

And we'll listen to you as well!! Please tell us more about your situation.

Ich_liebe_dich agony auntThis feeling depress is the hardest time we can have.

Think that you are not alone who experience that and suffering depression. At this moment of time no body can really help but only you. Look around you, how small or big the place is you will still find something to do. Play music, clean the room, experement some food in the kitchen, go out side, go shopping, you dont need to buy expensive stuff. you only need to give pleasure to your self, buy your self something you like. Buy your self a blooming red roses, bring it home, spray your self perfume, put make up on your face, put sexy dress, treat your self special, Go to some park area were people sometimes walking bring some mp3 and try to enjoy the time, all sounds silly but it works. Counselling would also help, but try not to take any medication, you are fine, you dont need it. what you feel right now is sadness. theres a lot of reason of sadness, broken heart, failed on something. but think its not the end of the world yet" life must go on. yesterday is diffirent from today and it will be diffirent tommorow. life is like a road, sometimes road is straight sometimes theres a lot of bend sometimes lots of rough road. But rough road is not forever it will go back to normal and good road. its not really big diffirent in our life. believe me every body has also up and down in their life, the most important thing you must know. you are not alone suffering in depression and you are not alone who will over come this depression. Think always of tommorow, theres always a new coming morning day. and a lot of people love"s you, sometimes we dont realise that" but its true. Good luck dear.

I sometimes feel this way and i think of all the positive things in my life.Also you should try to arrange things like going out with friends and making the most of your life and having things to look forward to rather than wasting your time away being sad and depressed.

Laura1318 agony auntTry to think more positive and have a more positive attitude towards life. Reject any negative views that comes into your brain.

You want to be happy or sad is your choice. If you choose to be sad , then you will enjoy sadness...

Talk to a medical doctor. They can rule out medical reasons for your symptoms. Some illnesses mimic mental health disorders. Then speak to a psychiatrist, therapist, pastor, trained professional, etc. Often it's a good idea to see a psychiatrist and a therapist because they do different things. One is there for medication management and the other for working on changing thoughts and behaviors. The important thing is that you reach out to someone who is trained to be a helper.

Yes! I will meet you under the clock at Paddington Station at 1500 hrs and we will go and get ratted?

You need to tell us a little bit more as to how you have got to this point today?

What is your love life like? What do you do for a living? What are your other relationships like? What might be in your past life that has been wrong?

Without some detail it will be very hard for any of us to comment or help. If you do not want to go public then pm me or an other person on here?

Please do this as it is very imporatnt for someone to help you - today!

Hello. We all have ups and downs. Its normal but if you think you are having too many down days then visit your doctor and talk to him or her. You dont say if there is anything in particular that gives you negative thoughts. But if there have been problems in your past that still affect you. Then try counselling. It really can help. All the best x
