Depression

[lozzdog]

My Depression is getting to the point where I can take it any more. I have been working with a councilor for about a year and I feel that she has helped me all she can. My depression like anyone else, shifts and changes but at the moment with the added stress of my university studies and not working my depression is getting the better of me. Its almost aggressive I feel like I am fighting with someone. All I do is obsess and obsess about what a particular group of people think of me, what I am wearing how I look, how dumb and pathetic I am. I could go on. I guess on one hand its easier to believe the bad stuff but I cant keep this up Im too tired. I need help and the exercises and knowing my warning signs and all that just isnt working at the moment. please help

I would also suggest seeing a psychiatrist if possible, they are experts in meds that can assist you with your issues. Sometimes it is a chemical imbalance that's causing it.
I suffer the same things, though they ebb and flow, some days  are better then others.

Hi Lozzdog,

I'm sorry to hear that you are having such a hard time but remember that this too will pass, I know I've been there.

Make an appointment with your GP tell them EVERYTHING, don't be embarassed about anything and don't think that just because it is a small thing that they don't want to hear about it.  Bring a copy of what you have written here it may help them to understand how you are feeling.

We can overcome this thing and we will
