I would recommend ...highly recommend.....that you contact a professional ......a counsellor in your area....see if you can find someone you trust to recommend someone locally......the waiting list can be long at the family doc! Are you drawn to therapy at all/ does complementary health appeal to you......? See if you can find a good person who does massage/ aromatherapy......this is a wonderful way to relax, and give the negativity a chance to subside.......

you do need some sort of help with this state of mind......things can come up for us ...it's not a failure to ask for help......

Do you feel well now?

We are probably in very different places- seeing as how I just started college- but for the last month I have just been very... down. I have spent entire days in my bed in my room without coming out at all or eating, etc. I miss class & feel so bad all the time. It's hard to be around people & I'm always really scared. I think sometimes that I will never feel better. That there is no point to feeling better because nothing actually matters. I can barely stand thinking about the future. I miss a lot of meetings with my therapist, but the last time I went she was really serious about me going on medication. I should be starting it soon, & I have no idea what to expect. I don't really have any hopeful words because I'm kind of in the same position. I think it's best to just hang in there & do what you can for now. Hopefully medication works out...
