Am I depressed? | depression | 11fzlgb | 1 | null | true | false | 1 | true | Those are definitely symptoms. Have you talked to a medical professional? That's who would be able to really diagnose you. | Recently, a guy who I was somewhat friends with committed suicide. I have been very good friends with his girlfriend for a long time now and we talked a lot about it and still continue to. She knew of his mental condition, while I had no idea. I am also starting to experience symptoms, but feel exactly what you described. Whenever I realize I might have symptoms of depression, I feel like I am lying to myself, because it supposedly can't be that bad, which is why I haven't really mentioned this to anyone yet. The fact that I didn't even know him super well compared to other people who seem to cope better when viewed from the outside really adds to this feeling of guilt surrounding my tendencies for feeling this way. | Hey, I see myself in what you are writing. I am also a”happy girl “ and feel that when I open up to my friends about it they don’t take I serious because I am always so “happy”.
I feel I also act this way so people around me feel good about themselves. I know that if I am real about my feelings people will not want to be around me or get worried.
Happy people are not always happy and if you feel that something is not right then trust that feeling. | Yes.
Because if we can “cause happiness” for others, maybe someone can do it for us? | null |

Alternatives to talk therapy? Any ideas? | depression | 11fwhqw | 1 | null | true | false | 1 | true | Maybe some art therapy? Painting? Singing? Or dancing? Animals are great too :) | Maybe what you are looking for isn't therapy in the first place, depending on your expectations and goals.
Are there specific areas in your life you struggle with? Then maybe find a mentor - someone who has a lot of experience and can help you tackle those challenges, specifically. Could be reasonable for professional or crafts-related issues.
Find it hard to get motivated to be active? Maybe you need a coach or trainer pushing you externally towards making a move.
Looking for socialization without talking about your problems? Maybe it would be wise to take classes at a community college (or something like that) in a subject you enjoy or always wanted to try, just to get your mind going in new directions and to meet people naturally.
It is hard to make suggestions really, when all you're saying is that conversational therapy is not it. | null | null | null |
Should I kill myself? | depression | 11fvcx4 | 1 | null | true | true | 1 | true | kill your life, not yourself. if you don't want to be near your families then don't. find a side job, seek a cheap apartment. problem solved. | I’m not the one to really try to convince someone to not commit suicide, but I’d never encourage someone to do it either. Ultimately, you really need to find a passion, find something to look forward to everyday, don’t look too far ahead. Just keep focusing on getting through the next 24 hours, repeatedly. Don’t look too far ahead, it’ll set you up for getting anxious or discouraged. | Definitely not. The things going on in your life are things that will change. Once you're out of school, you will have more options. Hang in there! | You got this. I was salutatorian in my hs, and my sister was valedictorian. On the outside, it looked like I had so much going for me. But my parents were abusive and neglectful, and I was so depressed and alone. I got out and moved away for college as soon as I could. I now live two states away from them and have built a life i wanted for myself. (It's still not great, but I'm trying. Turns out what you want in life may not be what you need. But I'll get there.) Whether it's through a job, or school, or friends -- try to get away from your family, if that's something you can do and want to do. They don't control your life. And this is just the beginning. | No, I do not think you should. The world is bigger than your experience of it and there are more possibilities than your depressive brain is capable of imagining. Call a crisis line if you need to. You need people you can get empathy from and that you can talk to. They may be people you've never opened up to before but sometimes sharing pain is very very connecting. We can ask relate to suffering. You need to make a list of anything that stimulates you, that brings you joy and user those as tools. You should really have a therapist or psychologist you see regularly and that is a process in itself, going through multiple therapists even, till you find the best fit and get results. You need to reduce stress in your life and while you can't change other people, you can change yourself and establish boundaries like "I'm not going to engage in painful, angry, upset conversations or yelling arguments. I will take a step back and we can talk things out at another time" or "I will not sit and take abuse. I'm going to walk away now because I am too underresourced to do this".
Sometimes just openly naming what is going on for you can make a difference.... Like "I'm so angry" or "I'm feeling hopeless".
It can help to learn anything that can shift you out of stressful emotions.
Please fight for your life! You and even your suffering might make a huge difference for someone else too, if you can be open and honest. Don't avoid or hide!
You can make a list of your triggers and the buttons people push and |

everyone hates me for attempting suicide | depression | 11ftmi1 | 1 | null | true | false | 1 | false | It’s hard to know you have that reputation now and people probably reach out out of concern which feels even worse because you might feel like a burden on them. Just remember your relationship with yourself is all that matters. If you can get in your own good graces then everyone else will soon follow. You shouldn’t feel guilty at all. You made a decision which you thought was the best for you at the time. Life is a bitter pill to swallow sometimes. A healthy inner voice would say, I wasn’t in my right mind at the time, and I forgive myself for attempting. And give yourself permission to express how you feel your roommate chooses to focus on your faults and it hurts your feelings and ask if she could refrain from bringing it up. | null | null | null | null |

I was broken up with for my depression | depression | 11fozm1 | 1 | null | true | false | 1 | false | Hey man, I know it's hard but try to stay strong and don't give up on all the progress you made. It sounds like she was judging you all along and wasn't the person you thought. I've had anxiety/depression my whole life but I was able to find someone that understands me. Best of luck with to you | You know I can identify with a lot of what you've written but the one that genuinely made me laugh was the holes in underwear because I never noticed that it happens more often than I thought until my gf said "I can literally see your arsehole" haha.
Listen mate it sounds like both of you did the best you could and your split wasn't acrimonious. Your mental health isn't your fault but it is your responsibility. On the one hand you are dealing with your issues and you both do want her help and input and don't because she had her own issues to deal with. What you want to avoid which you may or may not have already is having her be your crutch like her being your reason for doing things. You need to get your head right for yourself. Get better and in a better place for yourself. Not because you think that it will make her feel better or worry less about you. You can't control those things.
It sounds like you parted on good terms so give it some time then reach out for a catch up or something like bowling. I wouldn't let this experience affect your progress because it sounds like you've came on really well.
And even if it's done for good, these things happen. Just learn from it and move on. Someone can't like or love you until you like yourself. It's not selfish to focus on yourself sometimes. | And here I am thinking if I should break up with my girlfriend to spare her dealing with depression… | I wrote an email to myself like this when a girl broke my heart in high school, but nobody will ever read it. I don’t think it’s productive to complain to people like this, because it’s good to stew on your own thoughts. There’s no better marker of mental health than being able to keep your own council, which is a life skill that’s not supposed to be easy to develop, even if more and more people seem to have lost it today. | null |
Setbacks make me want to give up. Help? | depression | 11fou0n | 1 | null | true | false | 1 | true | There will be many more moments where small mistakes compound into bigger issues. Some mentors do similar things to see the extent of that person's abilities. Some pick on their students since that was how their mentors treated them. Some will be so irrationally strict on insignificant minor issues since they see themselves as the final gateway and must completely adhere to the rules. Think of it as a hazing into the realities of life.
To navigate these, it is best to observe and learn their traits. Understand their limits of "ok" and "not ok." Lessons taught are not only educational but also social. If they are good professors, they are probably imparting something, which for now seems vague but could potentially benefit you in the future.
Relax your body, calm your mind, clear your thoughts of past grievances, engage, and ask questions to clarify what is required on the assignments. Although begrudgingly, accept the "mistake" and, based on that experience, formulate a corrective action so that in the future, you will be better able to prevent making the same mistake again. | null | null | null | null |
started cutting myseld, feel unable to cry? | depression | 11foodv | 1 | null | true | false | 1 | true | Its okay to not be able to cry. I'm also in a hard spot with my relationship as she is ignoring me and forcing me to change but thats just what life is. Think about something that can take your mind off of your relation ship like anything you enjoy. For me I love playing the saxophone for my school band and that makes me feel happy. And for cutting yourself please stop your life is way more valuable than a relationship. Even if no one likes you this random guy on the internet does. | null | null | null | null |

You have to. He may be evil and malintent, but he isn't almighty - when you leave, you're not under his control anymore. Reach out to someone and leave. Don't tell him anything but be in touch with someone you trust. No one deserves to be treated like you are being treated. | I’m sorry. That sounds awful.

Yes, family members will always say things such as “finish college”. Probably because most people cannot even comprehend how depression or anxiety feels like. They assume its like a fever which vanishes with two doses of medicine.

I think I am good to be dead | depression | 11f93bw | 1 | null | true | false | 1 | false | I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling with such negative thoughts and feelings. It's important to remember that these thoughts and feelings are a symptom of depression and not a reflection of reality.
Here are some things you can try to help cope with these feelings:
Seek professional help: Consider talking to a therapist or a mental health professional. They can help you work through your feelings and develop coping strategies.
Challenge negative thoughts: When you have negative thoughts, challenge them. Ask yourself if they're really true or if there's any evidence to support them.
Focus on the positive: Try to focus on the positive aspects of your life, even if they seem small. Make a list of things you're grateful for or things that bring you joy.
Engage in self-care: Take care of yourself physically and emotionally. Practice good hygiene, exercise regularly, and eat a healthy diet.
Connect with others: Even if you don't feel like it, try to connect with others. Join a club or group that interests you, volunteer in your community, or reach out to old friends.
Remember, depression can be a challenging condition to deal with, but it's treatable. With time and support, you can find a way to manage your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
Wishing you the best,
D.A.D | This is a great comment, and sorry to hear you’re in so much pain OP. Life really does throw us some curve balls sometimes. I would also advocate therapy or any kind of mental health courses you can get your hands on. It truly does help to have a professional to open up to. The self care aspect is incredibly important too. Try to do even one thing a day that will give you a better sense of control on your atmosphere. Tidying up your room, keeping up with personal hygiene, any kind of goal which stimulates well being.
It takes time and effort to get out of a downward spiral but there are better days ahead, I promise you. | null | null | null |

Is depression a cope from the tough things I am afraid to face ? | depression | 11f7dpa | 1 | null | true | false | 1 | true | This is a question for a mental health professional, not really for Reddit.
But these are certainly good questions to be reflecting on. My (non-professional) advice is that you are not your thoughts. You might have thoughts that involve fear and avoidance. But you can also have new thoughts where you recognize that your subconscious is doing that. And you can try to cultivate new thoughts, around bravery and around deciding to do certain things, with the fear still being present.
But don’t rely on Reddit to diagnose your mental health! | I wonder that too. I think yes. Ironically, it makes you even less capable of making changes. | null | null | null |

These past few days I've been a little bit happier bc I made new friends and loneliness is something I struggle a LOT with. But everytime I'm happy w them I start feeling very weird and sad bc it's like I don't deserve to have genuine friends. I start to question their friendship and stuff like that.

Mine will probably be the darkest answer you will find. It really depends on which side of the fence you sit on. Back a long long time ago we had greeks who defined the lines in social status, placing most on the bottom while raising a few to the top who took power. Next came the Romans who added onto this with harsh and severe competition and social acceptance was only extended to those who won. A society so harsh they decided the weak should be dead, not an altogether different idea than Hitler had. Flush the weak and damaged out to produce a perfect and undefeatable society. The US and so very many other nations adopted this as a model for society. Much less harsh, society in the US is still using this model. Money is status, and you only get money through being competitive. Anyone who “loses” or simply refuses to play gets the shaft. Women still view men based on physical prowess as if a lion is going to suddenly pop up and he might have to chuck a few speers for your survival. Men still brag about their physical conquests both in sex and physical fights. We like to pretend we are oh so evolved but are we? But wait, there’s more. Everything good we were ever taught, every moral and principle that was given to us in a positive light is in complete opposition with living. We lie constantly, we lie at the beginning of relationships and in jobs. We lie to ourselves probably at least once an hour. If we just look over there and ignore the bad then the bad doesn’t exist. How many times a day do you hear “living the dream”? How many interviews have you had to lie in because you know the other 923 applicants also lied and it's the only way you’re going to get a job? You absolutely cannot be a good moral, principal-having person in this society. As such, anyone who is anywhere across the line or even close to the line of being a good person is going to struggle heavily in this society. What's completely laughable is that social acceptance fuels 90% of people's decisions. When to obtain social acceptance you have to be apathetic, opportunistic, and greedy…. in other words, we’re seeking the acceptance of people who will never accept us anyway. I mean who tf wants to become a monster just to befriend monsters? Pretty sure that's not why anyone wanted social acceptance. We want this so we’re not alone, we want this so we feel included and loved. But to get there we have to become someone who can barely love themselves let alone others? When the truth of the world is revealed and you stop lying to yourself about how many horrors are out there it becomes a really dark fkn place. You can take this to the bank, do NOT have hope that anyone will do anything about any of it. FAR too many people bought into the generational conditioning and are now brainwashed into thinking this is ok… this is all as it should be… ofc those people are usually the ones who have decided to trade in their dignity to belong to a society that would just as soon crush you like a bug than give up a raise or promotion to you. Just GREAT people on this earth… If God does exist it wouldn’t surprise me to find out he ran the fuck away from us. I know I would. Talk about a disappointment… | I’m in a similar boat. Struggle after struggle after struggle. I want to kill myself just to make it stop | Watch out for that interest trap. It's a weird thing to say since I don't really have any other advice. But I can tell you that the debt itself is not the problem. It's that interest that forces you to be a bank slave as it compiles into more debt. If you are able to talk with a bank to discuss better payment options in regards to interest, 100% do that but I know that will not always be the case. | it's not fair on you to cover costs for your mum on credit card debt. |
