been depressed

I have no idea what to tell you. There is no quick fix. Most things take weeks to start working. I was having issues with mood swings and PMDD. Someone suggested Evening Primrose Oil. I have been on it for 3 months and feel much better. The only thing I can say is that if you are at all worried about yourself, call the doctor and get an emergency appointment, for your safety and others. Good luck!

I've been reading a book called Feeling Good by David D. Burns. While not a lot of it is applicable to me (apparently I have an anxiety disorder, not depression) It has been helpful in dealing with changing the way I think of things and view things.

I know exactly where your coming from since I to suffer from depression. Everyone's depression is different for each individual. Depression hits everyone different. There are many different stages of depression and about 75% suffer from ne form of depression or another. First step is realizing your suffering from depression so you can change that. Second step is to think positively about your life and if your in a rut try to get out of it do something that gives you pleasure, that makes you very happy and makes you feel better whatever that may be. Do little things that you have been wanting o do and have been putting off. I hope seeing the doctor will seriously help you and get you back on the pathway to being happier. Take a much needed break from stressful situations and do something for your self even if it is just to go to the library alone. Take care of yourself, I know it will be hard but put you first for awhile.
