giving up, help please?!
Question: Giving up, help please?
I attended councelling sessions for a while as i was depressed and didn't have anyone to talk to.
I then attended an art therapist as i was still depressed and was having suicidal thoughts and feelings,anyway my art therapy sessions finished around october/november time, i had already had the maximum sessions available.
I've been through a lot in my life, losing family members, and other issues that have effected me deeply as i've grown up.
It's getting to the point that i was before, i honestly try to get help, it works then i plummet again to the same thoughts and feelings.
I feel that life is a game in which i am losing, i'm moody a lot, i despise myself, my looks, my personality... i also dont seem to have any drive anymore. i had so many dreams, to attend uni/ college, and i haven't applied for any, and its past the deadline. I cant see the good in anything, all i can think about is that one day nothing that i'm doing will matter anyway, so why try? and that we all end up in the same place. I cry over the silliest of things, the weather, dropping things, just everything, i cant even wake up in the morning, i have thoughts that disturb me to, i just dont know whats wrong with me.
Do i have a mental illness, am i depressed? im scared.
I'm terrified of dyeing, and i sometimes wonder wether thats the only thing stopping me from having the guts to end all this misery.
Thankyou in advance.

Try to play sports, even if you are or aren't athletic, you'll have fun.
Find a friend who jokes a lot and doesn't get into all sorts of trouble.
Don't despise yourself! Think about all the things you're good at and keep it up!
Think about all the things you may not have the most talent in, then keep working at it.
Be happy, I know it might sound hard, but smile.
It is actually scientifically true that smiling helps keep your cells happy, even if you aren't really happy--smile.
Be yourself, if you are a crazy person, be proud that you are different!
Just look at everything on the bright side!!
Hope this helped!! ^.^
I was depressed once, because I was so weird, different from everyone else at school, but I learned to smile alot and work out problems in a good manner. And soon I found friends who were different like me and actually cared about how I felt too. =)
You really, really need to go and speak to your doctor. It sounds like you have depression
