Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
I'm scared that the reason I have been so depressed and haven't been enjoying college lately is that its not the right place for me. I don't think I can handle 3 more years of undergrad, 6 yrs of grad and then a demanding life as a psychologist. I just can't do it feeling this miserable. The problem is that I don't know what else to do with my life. I really don't want to have to settle for lower expectations and standards for myself just because I'm depressed but I also know that I can't go on living like this. I don't know what to do.
to make you feel better, others have it worse like me, who can't even live life normally.
if your family is not a factor, try to find what makes you happy. does anything make you happy? whatever it is that makes you happy or at least content, can it be something you can do for life? if so, you might want to look into it.
