like arch said, don't worry about the label, just try to get better. Hope you are feeling better soon. I don't consider depression a "mental illness" in the same way as being psycho, or some of the other mental illness. Which when people say, mental illness, they are usually referring to illnesses with delusional or auditory illusions.

I think I'm a fruitloop lol. Whatever our labels are people shouldnt judge us. I might not be the happiest person in the world and feel low a lot of the time, but I am not ashamed. They can call me wot they like. (no offence was meant by this) xxxx

Your not mental because you have depression. Not wanting to live sometimes is part of the illness. I do suggest that you seek help from a professional. Tell him or her how you are feeling and see if there is anything they can do to make you feel better. Main thing to remember is that you are not alone in this battle.
