I'm really depressed..How can I snap out of it?!


Question: I'm really depressed..How can I snap out of it?
There's a lot going on with my family right now. We might lose our house, my brother has a cyst on his brain, & things just don't seem to be looking up for us.

The past week or so I've been really stressed. I freaked out on my Mom last Wednesday, & we've been snapping at each since. I just can't seem to shake the depression I'm feeling. I cried for two hours Friday night, & just started crying ten minutes ago. I'm home alone, & thoughts keep popping into my head, bad ones. I know I won't do anything bad, but still, it's scaring me.

I just need to make this stop. Is there anything I can do?.. I'm running out of hope things will get better....

Answers:

Please call a suicide line! Don't kill yourself this is the worse thing you could do to your love ones! Please google suicide prevention line! PLEASE or go to a hospital! Everything in life has a solution but not suicide! I care about you and I don't even know you! Everything in life it's a phase! This bad situations will pass I promise! It might take time but it will pass!! Please call for help!



Your reactions sound completely normal to the situations you are facing. May times people need a little help coping in times of stress. That can include counseling and/or medication. If you don't know where to look and can't talk to your mom right now, start with a school counselor or family physician. Hang in there--life will not always be this difficult. Prayers to you...



hiya its good first of all to talk wether on here or to someone, maybe the doctor, try writting it all down in a letter noone has to see it but sometimes its good to let it all out. Remember things will always get better and also try to do some exercise its a natural anti depressant, just getting out for a walk or jog can really help. hope you feel better soon :)



Hello, this may help you. It is a free 94 Page downloadble book titled How To Win The War On Depression

whats up, i know how you feel, a few years ago my dad became bankrupt and i had to spend over two years living in a hotel with 5 other family members in a small room. I slept on the floor next to the dogs usually haha. I understand your situation, right now you should take a cold shower, get some fresh air and cool off by watching tv or doing something fun. PLEASE YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND, TAKING YOUR LIFE IS A HORRIBLE THING TO DO WHICH I ALSO THOUGHT OF DOING! there is so much in life you havent experienced and your only a kid. Believe me, life seems like **** sometimes but it will always clear up in the future. If you keep feeling depressed, see a phyciatrist for some medication and you can talk to him about your problems and the stress you feel. Talking to someone is great for relieving depression. If you dont talk to anyone, you keep that sadness in you and it makes you feel even worse.

feel better dude, and please dont do anything stupid, the last thing your brother wants to hear in the situation he's in right now is to hear that his brother/sister commited suicide.

:) peace



Things always get better, then they get worse, then they get better, then they get worse. Life is a series of ups and downs and you are in the middle of your first coping challenge. The problems with the house are not yours--they are your parents. You can't do anything about that, so try to be supportive and helpful to Mom & Dad so they can better cope. Parents are people, too, with sadness and stress and hopes and dreams. Kids forget that and add to the burden. Maybe if you make it a mission to make your parents' lives easier, you will get out of your own head and feel better all around. The cyst on your brother's brain is another problem you cannot do anything about. Be helpful and supportive to your brother. Try to help him keep away his worries by diverting him, jokes, walks, stories, read to him, clean his room, etc. Finally, when the bad thoughts come, learn to distract yourself. Tell yourself "Stop it" and you will. This is a technique that even adults have a hard time learning, but it's easy and it works. Take care and be helpful and cheerful, and you will do wonders for your family. Be thankful you are healthy enough to be helpful.



yeap, the guy who answered first is right, see somebody, maybe not a doctor, but at least a friend, go for walk, talk with her or him, tell him how do you feel and how you could pass your problems.
About your family if you could, work, do a part time if you want, but you will reach your soul and you will feel better with you and your family, i know they will say that you don't have to and you will help maybe nothing about loosing your house but it helps to cheer up your family and see that you are there to help.
Good luck
