Am I depressed? If so please give me ideas, not involving parents.?!


Question: Am I depressed!? If so please give me ideas, not involving parents!.!?
I am always feeling sad or hopeless
I'm always irritable, or angry
I'm always crying
I lost touch with friends, and never talk to my brother anymore
I lost interest in activities, and quit all of them
I never eat anymore
Its almost like all I do is sleep
and I just feel worthless
I have a lack of enthusiasm and motivation
I have difficulty concentrating
and I have thought of death and suicide
Ive felt this way for over 6 months and it seems to just be getting worse!. I have told my parents but they are to busy to really care!. They said that I need to change my attitude, and stop feeling sorry for myself!. I'm not even really sure what has caused my depression, but If I had to guess it would be because I had to have surgery and lost touch with my best friend!. please give me ideas how to change my life and find myself again!.
By the way I'm home schooled so I cant talk to a nurse or councilor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, there are things you can do without having to try and convince your parents of what's wrong!. If you're old enough and don't have one already, get a part time job!.!.!. you will meet great people!. Find something you really love doing!. Find hobbies to keep you amused!.!.!. ones that you can do just sitting in your room!. Go and exercise, it makes you feel better!. If that best friend really means something to you, go and do something about it!. Try and get out of the house more - whether it's by yourself, or with friends!.

You don't need medication to deal with depression!. As long as you're kept busy, you won't have time to think about your depression!. I agree with what your parents said, by the way!. That's what mine said to me and if I had listened to them, I!.!.!. would have come out without much damage done!. Instead of thinking about everything that's crap about your life, think of everything you do have!. I can guarantee that if you are determined to change your attitude, you will be fine!. I know that's not what you want to hear, but it's the truth!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think your parents are right!. On the other hand, surgery, or the cause of, can be very depressing!. Since your parents aren't of any help, talk to your doctor!. Or, pull out the phone book and start calling psychiatrists and psychologists!.!.!. See if any of them will help you PRO BONO (for free)!.

Then again, maybe you just need to open up to everyone you've lost touch with!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Find some more people to talk to, it may be hard but just go out there and meet some new people!. Or find something to do that you feel validates you, or makes you feel like your accomplishing something worth wile!. I was depressed for almost a year but then I just decided to start working on my business and hang out with friends more and I am much more happier now!Www@Answer-Health@Com

look surgery is never something to be ashamed of and losing your best friend sucks i know try doing something for someone else i know this sounds like the christians way out but go down to a homeless shelter and help out or you could end up like jack out of fight club and become addicted to support meetingsWww@Answer-Health@Com

You made a good start to recovery by writing your thoughts down!. It sounds like the brain has shut everything down and is looking for a new start in life!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

then talk to a complete stanger!. I was depressed but I saw therapist and it kind of helped!. it made me realize that even though your smiles are fake the more you give them, the more you get back and the more you get back from other people makes you feel happy you smiled!. I know its complicated but when your out on the street just like, walking, smile and random people, say hi!. I garuntee you'll feel a little better!. don't try to comit suicide, I've been there!. all it got me was a week in a mental facility w/ hard beds and cafeteria food!. also, wouldn't you be missed!. don't you think it would be hard on your family if you commited suicide!?if you don't think it would be!. then you can say that I'd miss you!. I know I havnt known you or anything, but I know how you feel!. and if you die, then I'll feel like wasn't able to help you at all!.

now, isnt there someone that you've seen on tv or in a magazine that you think omg, I would so make out with him/her!. or ohmigosh look at her facelift! just try to relax!. lay on the carpet or your bed and relax yourself from your toes to your forehead!. make sure your nose and mouth and ears and eyes are relaxed!. and then think about being in that person's arms!.

also, music was a key thing for me!. especially upbeat music!. it helped alot!. good luck!. & I'm a pretty good listener if you ever need to talk or anything!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Step 2: Think before your action!. Don't repeat her past experience on herself!. Remind herself from time to time!.
