Question: How do I deal with not having any interest in activities I normally like (I suffer depression)!?
I'm always feeling down, depressed, hopeless, worthless, useless, fatigued, irritable, & now I find EVERYTHING boring!. I don't even have the patience to listen to music anymore!. I LOVE music! I love to clean, study, keep myself clean, but for the past 2 yrs!., I'd go a WHOLE week without a bath because I'm just depressed & don't have the energy!. I feel sad ALL the time!. It's hard for me to get out of bed, & I find myself struggling, but when my bladder can't hold it anymore, that's when I GOTTA go!. My depression is situational!. I have a college degree & still can't get a job!. I deferred my student loans & sent off the papers, & the collections agency is trying to say I never sent them & they call my house DEMANDING money & threatening me!. They even said 1 of my loans were in default!. How is that if I sent off the paperwork on time!? They try to say they never received it!.
Also, I can't live a normal life like everyone else!. People my age are married with kids & go to work!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi!. Do you have a psychiatrist!? Are you on any medications for your depression!? Do you take any medications for your Tourette's!? What is your degree in!? If you've been depressed for the past two years, it is not all situational!. You really need some help!. If you are on Disability, you can get help from them in regards to getting a job because employers can't discriminate against you because of your disability!. Accomadations can be made!. You don't take phone calls, for example, if your tics are vocal!. Please call a helpline in your area!. I suffer from depression and anxiety myself and am disabled because of it!. There is help and hope out there, but you are responsible to reach out for the help to a real, physical person!. You can do it!.
As for your college loans: you really need to call them and do whatever is necessary to get that one out of default!. I went through all of that, too!. They will help you!. Don't call the collection agency!.!.!.call your original loan holder or your school and they will help you if you explain your situation!. They really do not want your loan in default!.
I get into the same thinking as you do at times regarding not being like everyone else!.!.!.I'm a drain on society because I can't work, I'm wasting people's tax money, etc!. However, I put in taxes since the age of 15 to 30 and am now 42 and am working my way back into the workforce part-time!. I also pay taxes on everything I buy!. I volunteer on here every single day, helping people the best I can!. I help others in any way I can!. I'm a good person!. I have to remember that!. You do, too!. God doesn't make junk!! Ever heard that cliche'!? Well, it's true!. You have a purpose, you just haven't figured it out,yet!.
Now, I learned a very important coping skill in something called Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (you can look it up on the internet!.!.just ignore the diagnosis because I don't have that) that's called, "Opposite to Action!." All this means is that if you don't feel like taking a shower, do it anyway! If you don't feel like letting light into your home, do it anyway! If you don't want to get out of bed, do it anyway! Now, because you are very depressed, you might only be able to do one opposite action a day!. So, pick one (notice I didn't ask) and do it today, Tuesday, May 6th!. Then, I want you to email me what you chose to do right after you've done it!. You can go right back to bed afterward if you want!. Just pick one thing!. You can do it!. I will be eagerly awaiting your email to me!. :) If you don't email me, I'll just write to you on here again, and again, and again!.!.!.!.only because I care, sincerely!. Yes, I am a stranger to you, but I really do care about you!. I care because you reached out with this question and you touched me and now I've touched you back!. There is now a connection!. Let's not break it, o!.k!.
