Mild Depression?!


Question:

Mild Depression?

I would really appreciate anyone's advice. I've thought about going on anti-depressants but I really do think that's just the easy way out.
I'm always looking for something to make my life better - but I'm really not sure what it is. I thought I need to get into an activity - but hate sport. Meeting new people I get slight anxiety because I'm not totally happy with myself.
I seem to want to cry over nothing. I don't know whether I'm sad or lonely. I've just gotten over a break up. It was a year ago, but he did break my heart. I can't be lonely - I don't like the thought of even being touched by a man or touching a man.
I've got plenty of friends to catch up with - I just don't have the money for that coffee, or lunch.
I stress about money. I never seem to be able to do the things I want. It's a struggle to head to the movies with such little money.
I'm wondering if there's a self-help book I could read that would help me achieve a happier lifestyle.

Love to hear from any1


Answers:

I suppose that in a way i am sort of similar to you about the break up part. Every time I try to move on, i always feel uncomfortable when a guy is trying to make a move on me and puts his arm around me or something. I guess it has to do with just wanting to be with the same guy you were with before bcuz you were so accustomed to him. My advice for that is to just try to get back together with the guy, if possible. About the money problems, talk with your boss and see if you can do extra hours or something. my sister does that a lot, lol. Once you've solved the money problems, call up your friends and set up a time when you can hang out.

Your problem, obviously, is that you want to improve your life and fill in the blanks. You don't need to do that. life isn't supposed to be peaches and cream all the time.
I suggest you go to a bookstore or library and look into a book called "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff- And it's ALL small stuff" by Richard Carlson. Some of the stuff my family reads to me from that book sounded pretty bogus to me at first, but then I used some of the tips in the book and realized that they really do help you quite a bit in life. I really think you should check it out. I've been struggling somewhat in my life about an amazing guy that broke my heart as well, but trust me, it'll be fine, and i know how you feel.
Best of luck to you and God bless.
