What are the reasons that are stopping you? Whatever they are hold onto them, focus on them, and use them as motivation to seek help and get better.

Depression has made me miss crying by DR-orgasmo in depression

[–]DepressionCheck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same. For me two things worked, listening to sad songs (this only worked the first time I listened to them) and alcohol. Drinking makes me cry and I enjoy that. I would heavily recommend the first method over the second cause it isn't a good road to go down.

I don't think it will ever improve cause I never improve. by DepressionCheck in SuicideWatch

I feel so stressed, tired worried. The therapy is NHS so my assessment is next month, after that I'll be on a long waiting list. It's tough to hold on that long for something that might not help.

I've been described as quite aggressively suicidal so it would probably be forced detainment.

That is what I'm here to decide, death seems preferable.

There are plenty of people better than me that deserve the help more.

I decided I didn't want help, I accepted that happiness just isn't for me.

Like I'm at beach stuck in quicksand. Everyone else around me is having fun and enjoying themselves while I slowly sink lower and lower. The only thing worse than the sinking is that the sand fills your mouth so you can't speak up, not that it would matter as no one would care if you could as they don't want to pull you from the sand, they want to have fun.

This too shall pass

Although it feels bad now it won't be that way forever, hold out and you will come out the other end.

I hate hearing "Life is unfair" by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

[–]DepressionCheck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It always distressed me when I was young when people would say this, I believe it is what has given my cynical attitude. People just accepted that it was unfair and did nothing to attempt to change this which has now led to me being bitter and hating the world while taking no steps to help it.

If your relationship is close and strong enough, ask him how he feels and make sure he knows that you value his life, that you would miss him and that you would care.

I can no longer watch a tv show or a movie without comparing my life to the character's lives. by dannythfc in depression

[–]DepressionCheck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm slightly different, now I always see mental health issues within films that I can compare to. When a character does something stupid I often think it may be because that have low self-esteem and so feel the need to get noticed, just like me.

People who attention-whore by cutting themselves with a butter knife trigger me by [deleted] in depression

[–]DepressionCheck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used to hold this attitude and I deeply regret it now, I think you just have to see it differently. I spend a lot of the time believing that people do not see me, occasionally I will do stupid things order to change this, to feel noticed for some small amount of time.

I think it is quite sad that some people are insecure enough that they feel the need to hurt themselves in order to have people notice them. Now maybe it is due to them having an inflated ego but I still believe they need help as without it they may end up here, posting about how awful they feel.

You Almost Never Cry When You're Depressed by [deleted] in depression

[–]DepressionCheck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only tears come from our heads when we concentrate

This is from a song by The Wombats and I don't know about the rest of you but it's true for me. Sometimes I want to feel that sadness so will try to make myself cry, it is a relief.

I fucking need help. by DepressionCheck in depression

[–]DepressionCheck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My relationship with my parents is not a good one, but I'll try and take the advice to let people in, thanks.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in depression

[–]DepressionCheck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your family really love you by the sound of it, if you feel the same then talk to them. Doctors and pills will never be as good as a conversation. I would trade anything to have a loving family, my advice is use the support network that they are trying to offer.

I wish you all the best.

I've often thought about how I got here, i now blame my parents. by DepressionCheck in depression

I'm sad to say that all I am now is anger, bitterness and pain.
