Long time no thread i know ha ha, But lately by depressing, Since school ended really has gotten so much worse, Like it has affected my eating so now i hardly eat and when i do it's nothing major, And it's 5:15Am right now but i am used to being up all night now too, The main cause and the thing i am kinda crying over right now was not saying goodbye to certain teachers on the last day and not realizing how much i will miss the place and also Daniel breaking my heart.
But since then my Rabbit died, Had to break up my friends twice, Still got people bringing me their issues when i got my own to get on with, Had to cancel me going to a holiday and loosing money we don't have, I have became more self consious, Never leave the house, Like just this stuff and my depression is affecting my health.
I got given anti-depressants but they did not work long as my body has a strong immune system and gets used to things quick, Taking counceling but that is making more depressed than ever and yeah i am very worried for my health, Being depressed and stressed while your or eating or sleeping i know is never a good thing, I would be happier if i was in ove but that's never happening :/ But yeah anyone got any ideas how to change any of this!? I am scared incase it gets worse, Thank you for your time.

I think you need a counseling as depression is not something healthy. If you want to live your life to the fullest then you have to consult an expert as early as now. Depression will never be good to you and its a condition that should be treated or it can be life threatening as well.

you may need stronger antidepressants. I'd also bring it up to your counselor. This isn't something to just let go.

Wow it sounds like you have a lot of little problems that are just snowballing out of control and getting you down. I am not a professional so take what I say with a grain of salt, but I don't really think you should've gone on anti-depressants if it's just those things you mentioned that are getting you down, because that can actually make your life more complicated because of side-effects and other issues from the meds. Counseling is probably the most helpful thing in the long-run, but there are many different kinds of it, like CBT and psychoanalytic, etc. If the kind you're in right now isn't helping, then check around for different kinds until you find what helps you most!
But actually, there are a lot of simpler things you can do to make yourself feel better. Rabbits are fuzzy and irreplaceable, but if you got a new pet it might make you feel a little less lonely and it would give you something else to focus on. If you aren't going to see the teachers you miss again, look up their emails online and you can send them a message saying w/e you wanted to say that you didn't. Most importantly, eat!! and get out of the house! Even if it's just to do something simple like go with your mum shopping or something. Staying inside will just make you bored and thus more depressed.
Friends fight sometimes and relationships go up and down, that is how it is. Remember that they aren't ever really gone, you can always try and patch things up with them if you fee like it's appropriate, and if it's not, there are always ways to make new friends :)
The hardest thing to deal with is probably going to be your bf breaking your heart, and I am sorry to hear about that. There is no easy way over a break up unfortunately, but I think grieving after something like that is natural and the best thing to do is just let it happen. If you like to write, then maybe do some poems or stories about it in order to vent your feelings; if you like to read, then go find some breakup stories online and you will feel less alone maybe. If you don't like doing either of those things, try just exercising orrrr doing something completely new in order to distract yourself, and I promise it will get better eventually. Just remember to give yourself space from the guy that hurt you and not to be thinking about him or interacting with him all of the time!
hopefully that helps some , feel better!
