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.
Maybe no one will even read this but I hope someone does.
Hi, I'm Melanie. 16 years old. Ive been depressed as a child and barley started on Zoloft 100mg two months back. Ill be boosted up to.200mg soon.
My family seems to be so rude to me all the time. No matter what. My current bf (who I've been with for a year) sent my sex tape out. I've been feeling like my.meds don't even help me. I feel like flushing them down. I want to kill myself. I argue so much with my boyfriend and family. Everyday gets.much worse. I think of how horrible my mom will cry the day I off myself. I've been through a shit load.
Ive been to a mental hospital about 9 months ago and spend 3 days and 2 nights there. I was supposed to be hospitalized but i found my way out of that. I really need some support. Please.

I have toys. So the ones I have not used or need any more, are gone in the trash. One of my toys is just a regular hand held massager with an attachment. The other is a real insertable toy. This morning I ordered a new toy with attachments. It is small and has a brush like attachment and the other looks like a rose with a tiny tongue. I'll get it in about 2 weeks. Rechargable and...

I can't believe this has gone on this long. So I don't have much hope of getting a tech job, but I saw an educational job that I thought might be really good. It would have been working at a university supporting high school students who are taking college classes. I did a mock interview with a friend and prepared extensively. It was at the university that I graduated from. I was very excited...


I find that when people are rude to me it is best to just let it pass rather than to argue with them or to be rude in return.
I see you are thinking of killing yourself. Please, please don't. Try and get through the bad times. You have nearly all your life in front of you. Believe me, one day you will find someone who will return the love and respect that you deserve and life will seem wonderful then. Just be patient until it happens.
1. The Zoloft SHOULD help you. GIve it time. Keep your doctor informed on how you are doing with it. Take your doctor's advice.
2. I get the feeling you are not in the USA. IN ANY CASE, you have been raped by your 'BF'. At least in the US ..... because you are a minor. Evidently, there is a sex tape to prove it. He needs to go to prison. Notify parents and/or the police and/or school authorities.
You are not going to get any support if you run away from it. You say you need help, ... you will get SOME here on DS but not nearly enough to solve your problems.
You are not in control of your situation ... someone with authority has to take that control. Killing yourself would be another huge mistake.
You need to talk to an ADULT about ALL this. You are flailing.
You feel awful because you are growing up. The hard way. It is normal and you will get through it. Hang on in there and tell bf to go stick it up his arse.
