Extreme Depression Problems- Urgent....Please Help!!!!?!


Question: Extreme Depression Problems- Urgent....Please Help!!!!?
Hi, I'm 20...I am quite attractive but not a 10. I am currently in community college, in my last year. I've had a lot of mental problems, health and physical problems my whole life. My parents did a lot of stupid things around when my Mom was pregnant with me, or at least she did- as far as substances go, but I'm not 100% sure on what she did, and the validity of it. Anyways, my body and brain are fully functional. I've just had a lot of trouble with life. While one day it's dealing with a bipolar, depressed father and brother, another day it's trying to understand women, and which ones are legitimate in my life. It's not only females, but everybody. I have a lot of trust and abandonment issues, because of the way I am and how people have treated me, and my luck has been in life. This is only summarizing, maybe one page of an up and down life. I have thought about harming myself, but I would never do it- it's just depression. I get along with everybody. I'm what you would call the nice guy that finishes last, but I also don't have any major problems with women and relationships. I have read just about every Google search tip on depression. My life is so complicated with how things run 24/7, that I just need people to talk to, that it results to me posting here. I don't know if medicines will work. While I hear one good thing about depression medications, I hear a problem with it as well. I also exercise minimally. I'm 140 lbs. I used to be in shape when I played sports but I'm out of shape now, but not fat whatsoever (extremely skinny is the word). So I don't use food, drugs, alcohol, physical pain to myself, to make myself feel better 100%. It's mainly music and watching/being intrigued with sports. When I listen to my fav. artist, song or just any kind of music cause I listen to pretty much everything, it sets me away and relaxes me for the time being, but the depression comes back. I don't think it's best to exchange emails with a stranger on here, so I'll ask this. What method can I tell myself, to remind me how better I am for the world, rather then always feeling down? Because it seems like whenever I give, I never get it back- whatever it may be in life, including with friends. I want to give up a lot of times, but I guess I don't, since I'm still here and will never ultimately give up. It's just confidence I lack and need. Read the question and can somebody please help me?

Answers:

Go to a M.D. and ask for an antidepressent, like Zolof



There's no magic words to make yourself feel better about stuff and your life. If there were, the anti-depressant companies would be out of business! All you can do is start with the small stuff (in your post you sound like a guy, but your name and picture suggest girl). Find something that makes you feel good, ice cream, massages, going to the park with your dog, whatever, and do it! You will only feel better a little bit, I know, but these little pieces of "little bits" will eventually add up to more.

When you do something good, no matter how little it is, praise yourself on it. Get overly excited about it! You pushing yourself into a better mood and acknowledging the small stuff should help raise your confidence level.
