I sleep in everyday, I never do laundry, I never do anything, I never cook, I never answer phone calls, I dont know what to do anymore. I feel like Ive given up on everything. I KNOW my life would be much better if I could make myself do these things, but I just cant. It wasnt like this before. Ive tried everything but nothing works. I dont want to hear 'it will get better.' Ive been waiting for too long. Help.

It helps to spend time with friends, Do things you love to do. Spending time with people really helps. If it helps, Make a schedule for yourself to go out everyday even for a short walk. Trust me, being depressed isn't fun I know. Try to find a motive and I bet it will really help. :)

I can understand how you are feeling...but you must become more perky,more happy,more naughty and laugh a lot.You should know that you are a wonderful person and that merely because you wont do these things at present ,doesn't mean you are wrong or bad in anyway.just think of these routines as a normal part of everyone's life.talk to yourself more often,and do it positively.be more positive,self-confident.tell yourself that you believe in yourself.you may not be having the stamina or interest to do these normal things,but go ahead and do them little by little!think of yourself as a good cook and think of yourself as being good at these things already!all your family members might be needing a lot of help and wont be able to do everything without your help.so what you do is,help them,whenever possible.if you start doing cooking,laundry,etc,you will be useful to your family.they will delight that you have changed.you don't have to feel that you have given up on everything.enjoy your life,pray a lot,and be happy!start the effort,and keep it going.say nice things to family members and friends,about their cooking etc.take up a hobby,you can go to these online sites where they teach you a lot of stuff for free.sit and create a lot of arts and crafts,which can beautify your room or house!tell all your family members that you have decided on a hobby,ask them to help you with it too.when you do creative stuff,it helps a lot.you already are a wonderful person!spend atleast an hour daily on making your own jewellery,or hand bag,or make scented candles etc.these are a whole lot of fun!take long walks along with someone,or even alone,I have heard canada is picturesque!take care and wish you the best of luck!

Which is great, most people who are depressed go through denial, and say there's nothing wrong, but you know there is. You should go see a doctor, it doesn't have to be a psychologist, a normal primary physician can help you. If you don't have one, just go to your local health clinic, and explain to them what's going on, what your feeling, and they'll help you. They'll figure out if some kind of medication is right for you, or whatever it is that you may need. Not everyone needs medication, but if that's what you need, they'll prescribe whichever one is best for you. Good luck, and I hope you get the help your looking for. <3 [ ohsnapxxiloveyou's advice column | Ask ohsnapxxiloveyou A Question ]
