Thanks and sorry this is so short.

 

Are you feeling depressed or sad? For me, there is a big difference.

Depressed. I have a lot going through my life at the moment and I keep thinking about suicide. I feel terrible and alone.

it may sound odd, but i recommend community service.

for three reasons:
1. smiles. when we see smiles we feel better. simple as that. when you help people you make them smile. (usually)
2. build community. with people there to help you, as you have helped them, you have many more resources.
3. most important, when you do charity work you usually get to work with ppl who are less fortunate. this will encourage downward social comparison. downward social comparison is known to boost self esteem.



also, just ask your parents if you could get a counselor that you could talk to. it helps just to say a lot of stuff.

Thanks for your help, after talking to a very kind member via PM's I think I am going to contact a therapist.

you can use "www.ebuddy.com" to add others then get on regular msn after that.

it's a version of msn that allows you log on msn through their webpage, i have to use it aswell after the latest live update don't let me add others.

i have an associates degree in psychology and even i dont feel comfortable talking to him.
the mind is a delicate thing.

be careful with it.
or dont try messing with it.

Itll be all good Bro. If its weight the Issue then try your best to exercise or if its family then try to reconcile with them. At the end youll make it out if your strong. Trust me im just getting out of major severe depression and social anxiety So Im proof you can get better. See a therapist it really helps you see your problems better.

Take time out from your normal routine and go and do something different. If the weather is nice go for a walk to try and clear your head. As Tyro said above, trying a new sport could be extremely beneficial in healing your depression. An interest in a new sport could take your mind off being depressed completely.

Get off the computer, and get some sunshine.
Find some friends to hang out with and there will be a smile on your face.

Play games, go out with friends, involve yourself in as many ACTIVE events as possible so you dont even really think "I'm feeling sad today". Do anything to keep your mind off how depressed you might be will only make it better.

I have low points like this in my own life. I always deal with it by praying and being fully immersed in God's word. He comforts me. Let me grab a verse for you and I'll post it here.
