Hello. I'm just having a hard time to smile these past few days. Though I found this site to be very worthwhile I still feel like there's something I lack of. Something I need. It's been months since I've started living alone. My life had been one of the most tragic and dramatic sort of living. I bet it could win an Oscar award. I'm this kind of person. As you see I'm in a great downfall yet I can manage to make a joke. It is one of the things my friends,family and I, myself can't understand. I do have lot of loads to do but they are just kept delayed or canceled because I prefer to sit in the bathroom and cry for hours.

Is this somewhat kind of depression?

See I can be a happy person, capable of helping a lot of people with their problems but I can't help myself and pin point my biggest problems.

Back in the days my friends always told me or some sort of mystery that they 6 different person in me.

Can split personalities occur? 6 characters in a person?

Azula agony auntOK! Thanks for all the concern.

Here! I will be leaving on Sunday night, going to the province.

Try to unwind and think things through.

And also for me to have someone to be my company.

I'm just not used of being alone.

I have my relatives there. Cousins and some of the third degrees. My family are in different places and they are way too far.

Again thanks for the responses. I'll be out but I will still try to be in touch and give my opinions to the people here.

Thanks. I hope. Hehehehehe

split personality is really not what you're describing but you definately sound depressed. if you go see your gp they can refer you to a therapist and prescribe anti depressants

Tisha-1 agony auntHey, you sound like me a while back. Depressed, happy to help other people out, but unable to help yourself. Do as Ask oldersister suggests and get yourself to the the doctor for an examination. That's what I did and it has completely transformed me and my life.

The sun is shining again. It's a beautiful world, even though I've lost people close to me, every one in my family has been through a major medical issue or two, it's been a struggle to recapture me. But here I am, and here I intend to stay, on the sunny side of the street.

All the boring things people tell you to do, exercise, eat right, have activities with friends and family, take care of yourself, find a passion and pursue it, those things really do work. Medication can help too, as can counseling, so don't turn something aside just because it's unknown or new or somewhat scary. Trust in yourself to do the right thing if given half a chance.

Take care.

Starlights agony auntwe are all multi charactered, split personality crazy kind humans.

it depends on the situation, mood, to what one is brought out in each of us.

sitting and crying for hours could be a sign of depression -but only a doctor can diagnose this, so see one if your worried.

however im a firm believer only u can help urself out of this one.

do u prefer to be sad? why? what does that achieve?

it takes a whole load of mental energy to be sad when u cud infact make a simplw decision to be happy today.

think:

you have health, whereas many have disease, u have wealth whereas people in africa are starving, what of these things are u sad for?

the main purpose of life is to help others and achieve happiness,

remember your life is short so try and pack as many good memories into it as u can, becoz life is a gift.
