depressed
Lately I've just been feeling reeally depressed. But there are reasons. I'm truthfully not good enough for anyone. There's nothing good about me and I can't do anything. I've been giving up on everything because I can't succeed in anything. I've even been cutting my arms which I swore to myself I would never do. When I try to talk about it I just get more depressed and it's just like well nobody knows what I'm going through anyways so why bother. When I'm with people I act totally different from what I feel. I don't like letting people know what I'm feeling, because I'm constantly depressed. I've even considered suicide. >_<
So can someone please help me stop this feeling? I don't want to take anti-depressants because then I'd have to tell my mom and I don't want her freaking out. I don't want to cut anymore, it just feels like a last resort. ):

The reasons you have given for your feelings of depression, strongly suggest that this is a clinical issue. It’s never an accurate statement to say that there is nothing good about anyone, talk less of you. There is plenty of good in all of us, it seems you find it easier to look for negatives rather than focus on your positives. You need to tell your mother about what you are going through, so she can assist you in receiving the professional help you need. You write about not wanting to have your mother freak out if you tell her about your depressive feelings, cutting and suicidal ideation? Please consider what your mother will go through if you go through in taking your life. You are going through a tough time in your life right now, and given its seriousness, it’s unrealistic for you to think that you can go through this alone.
Good luck.

We all go through depression at various points in our lives. It happens quite often and it quite natural. So I hope you feel comfort in knowing that you are not alone. Nor will you ever will be. Unless you make it that way. And I was gonna take the easy way out and provide more sympathy and comfort but I decided against it. I believe that you recently lost something very close to you. Whether it was a person, an animal, a job, a lover, friend, etc... in any case.. it provided you with self worth. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Thriving off the surrounding environment can do wonders! However, whatever it holding you up is now gone and you may feel a void within. But now Imma be rather blunt especially because I can relate (not as far as you have gone but I know that if my attitude was like yours then it could of lead to the point of where you are.) You have alot of help, loved ones, and resources around. Get off your self pity train and make something happen. To say that your "good for nothing"? Is retarded and plain insane! You should believe "everything happens for a reason" and the follow up to that is that "God or whomever you believe will not place more weight on you than you can carry"....and it seems to me that you are only carrying yourself *in the most detrimental, self destructive, negative way humanly possible!" Just because you don't your babysitter anymore. I'm not sure how old you are but unfortunately.... YOU HAVE TO GROW UP AND BE YOUR OWN SUPPORT BEAM! LISTEN TO ME>>>>>>>>>> YOU ARE KILLING YOURSELF WITH YOURSELF BY YOURSELF>>>> I also suggest that you go seek group help. There are many groups for depressed and cutters waiting for people like you. Its quite alright the be withdrawn.. or have other people talk bad about you... but you need to "STOP SAYING THESE THINGS ABOUT YOURSELF!" how can you fabricate good fortunes and happiness if you *technically and internally" always against them? Hope this helps and I actually would appreciate a follow-up. Best Regards... because whether you believe it or not... you DESERVE THEM!

hi there,
i have personal experience with being depressed as well, and i have taken medicine for it as well. depression occurs when factors such as stress cause the chemicals in your brain to become imbalanced. anti-depressants are used to balance them so you can start to think a bit more clearer, so you can help yourself get better.
the thing is, sometimes there are things that we can change and then there are other things that we can't. when we can't change certain things in our life, that's when we need to reach out and get some help. there is no crime in getting assistance when you can't solve a problem. it is crucial that you understand, though, that s/he will need to be there to help you through it (instead of telling you what you need to do - only you can know that answer).
my advice is to go and talk to someone accessible. in a perfect world i would suggest a guidance councilor or teacher, but in this case i would recommend going to a spiritual leader such as a minister or a rabbi. it might make you feel more comfortable to go see one you don't know, so there is more degrees of separation between you. don't think i'm suggesting you get into a religion (and if they try to convert you, say thanks and go find someone else), but spiritual leaders can help you come to terms with why you are feeling so despondent and hesitant to talk to your mother. they are trained in talking to people and offering an nonobjective perspective.
first things first! take a deep breath. put down the knife. believe it or not, you are not alone, and trying to kill yourself will make many people around you extremely upset. good luck!
