Depression for no apparent reason?

[amscramhick]

Does anybody else have this? I have amazing friends, an amazing boyfriend. They've helped me a lot when it comes to getting over things that have happened and made me depressed, turned me into a cutter. But I find myself back to depressed, and I don't even know why... :/

I know exactly how you feel I really do. Even when things are going amazingly in my life it's like i'll always have who I was stuck inside me. The slightest thing can turn me into a wreck. I'll cry for hours, have suicidal thoughts and urges to cut. It happens almost every night, but my life is actually pretty good.

I know what you mean too. I hate it. It makes me feel selfish for being so depressed over nothing when some people are actually going through things now. I mean my past has been screwed up but its just the past and I don't think it really bothers me anymore. I just don't see the reason to being depressed so I just put up a front and pretend its all good. Every small thing sets me off and I'm scared to go to anyone for my cutting again. It's always the same generic comment. They all say "she only does it fot the attention." Gahh! I just want to be happy again. Don't you feel so trapped?

It's starting to get into the winter months. Lack of sunlight and vitamin D in the winter time can lead to feeling depressed. It's called SADS for Seasonal Affective Disorder. Go to your local health food store and ask a naturopath for vitamins you can take and see if they work. It's best to stay away from pharmaceuticals as much as possible.
