I'm depressed

[Mr.G]

The only thing I can say that might be helpful, is that when I was very young like you I felt depressed for a period of time as well. It was all centered around being unsure of myself, lack of confidence. Slowly, overtime, I overcame it.

Don't give up. Keep fighting. Work towards developing your life skills and cultivating the unique talents that you bring to the table. It's a long hard battle.

Even now, I have not forgotten that deep feeling of hopelessness, and I am not so arrogant to think it could not return.

Wise words Mr.G

Depression is rough but overcoming it can humble a person and overall help their character I believe.

One of my parents is 6 feet under the ground, the other one I don't have a very good relationship with. That's pretty much all there is in my family, dead people or people I don't get along with. It's true that spending time with my brother does help though, but it doesn't last and I don't have the courage to go see him by myself I just wait for him to come if he wants to because otherwise I feel like he can't be bothered

I hope things get better for you. You have our support.

It's seasonal. Make time for yourself to sit down comfortably, read a book, try to get enough sleep, drink hot chocolate (phenylethylamine and tryptophan are natural antidepressants - the latter is linked to the production of serotonin), go for plenty of long walks and, if married: have plenty of sex.

Title says it all...

The title doesn't state the reason.

Depression can be numerous reasons... not just seasonal.

Is it menstrual/hormonal/time of month? (I often get tearful and very emotional during my menstrual cycle.) Sometimes I cry whilst reading the news, and the news and all the problems in society and the government often makes me feel depressed.

Ssome medications taken for either a mental or physical medical problem can have side-effects of depression.

Side-effects of an alcohol hangover or illegal street drugs can cause depression. Alcohol is a known depressant, which is why when people drown their sorrows in alcohol it can make their depression worse and cause suicidal feelings... especially if alcohol is taken with medications.

Side-effects of sleeping pills or tranquilisers or some other medical prescription pills can cause side-effects of depression.

Best to ask psychologists, CBT therapists, psychiatrists, counsellors, or GP's, etc.... to do a full review of your situation to see what's causing your depression.

Mild, moderate, or severe clinical depression (which causes a loss of appetite, etc,) could be due to extreme physical pain (sickness, flu, cancer, severe accident, loss of a limb, severe injury, etc,) emotional pain from the death of a child/partner/ relative/pet/friend, situational (loss of a job, fallout with someone, house fire, car theft, mugging, rape attack, burglary, phone or laptop theft,) seasonal, hormonal, vitamin/nutrient deficiency, serotonin deficiency, a result of a traumatic event in life (either recent or in the past,) circumstantial, or clinical.... or a combination of multiple causes.

Depression does not discriminate and can happen to anyone in life at any time and of any race, age (including children and teen,) gender, class, sexuality, religion, etc.

Also World Mental Health Day raises awareness each year of the 200+ various psychiatric problems that can affect the brain functioning, and teaches that people don't need to be mentally ill in order to suffer from a temporary mental illness at any time.

Talking, writing, typing, expressing your feelings.... getting it off your chest.... listening to or playing music, drawing, walking and exercise (if you're not physically injured,) diet, vitamin D supplements, can help to ease the symptoms... and speaking to a doctor can help identify and treat the cause of the depression.
