Ever gotten sick from depression?

[AndThePickles]

Never knew the feeling till a few days ago. I was feeling so positive and happy for the first time in so long, then a few days ago something happened to someone I really care about. It's so hard for me to eat but I'm basically forcing myself and I haven't been able to be myself and I want this to go away but that person won't let me in and try to help them because they already feel horrible as it is. Why do I have to be so damn sympathetic?


Anyone else ever have that feeling?

Well, it doesn't sound like you are clinically depressed, so at least be glad of that. (Although, you did say that you hadn't felt positive and happy for a long time...would you say you have "depression"? If so, have you looked into therapy? It can help.) Anytime bad things happen that you really care about, it's going to make things difficult, and I'm sure all you feel like doing is just sleeping until it goes away. I wish I could say that this sort of thing will stop happening as you get older, but you will probably always encounter increasingly difficult situations. Take this time to try to grow emotionally, and it may even help the next time something bad happens.

It might help if you write in a journal. Music can even help. Try to get yourself to go out with some friends and take your mind off of things.

Depression can and does often manifest physically. Sucks. I haven't been 'sick' in over ten years- sick from a true illness that is. Anytime I've missed school/work has been from emotional upset effecting me physically. But aye, it happens. If you need to vent, my PM box is always open.

I know the f-cking feeling. My PM box is open as well.

There aren't any real pearls of wisdom I can drop, as I'd just be a hypocrite in doing so, as I'm pretty much consumed by my own sh-t on a daily basis. Whether I try to positively combat it or not. This last year was the most excruciatingly f-cked up time of my life.

Depression sucks, it effects mind and body.
Been through it so much these past few years.
Keep doing things you love, it helps.

No doubt man. I try to fill my plate with pleasurable distractions.

haha again thanks guys i think this thread honestly helped me a lot.

i talked to my friend today. i basically told him face to face for the first time ( the other times i've been talking to him online) that if there is any time he wants to talk, i'm here. he said he appreciated it and i felt a little better but i'm still gonna have to deal with this and try to just think positive and keep myself busy.


to the breakdown earlier--> i kind of felt bad for the teacher, since everyone says he makes people cry ( which he kind of does) but unintentionally.

Thats nice good for you for getting your feelinfs out in the opening.

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

[Erzengel]

You realize how trivial all that high school nonsense is like the day you leave.

exactly, it's like, a few years from now, i'm not going to give a rat's ass about those people. it's sad when some people get out of high school and finally realize that other kids opinions never mattered to begin with.

People always ask the question "if you could relive yoour 4 years of high school ,would you?"

HELL NO!

That's a hard question to answer cause I had some good times too. I wouldn't trade it for anything though.

i'd like to see what would happen if i changed a few things, but not go back and relive every single moment

 

[oakzap425]

Nope. All 4 years were horrible. Especially during that time when I found out that years long friendships weren't what I thought they were.

yep, that's the part that hurts the most. For me, I would always say, well at least i had my friends, then they screw you over, most of them, not all. the guy friends are usually the best to surround yourself with.

i actually had a cliche' thing happen to me where a friend of mine was mad cause her ex bf liked me. told me she hated me , then apologized. it was kind of funny now that i think about it.

 

[oakzap425]

Don't worry. I had what I thought was a best friend, and then find out on her online journal, she never really though we were friends to begin with.

Aww Oaky we can be BFF.

 

[The Apatow Crew]

I had a friend who be all buddy buddy with me when he had no one else to hang around with but as soon as people came around he turned on me and was like f**k you.


Then the next day he was all buddy buddy again. I went through this for 4 years. I had no other people around me to hang out with.

I know what you mean about that not having very many friends bit. When I went through that, I went thorough like, damn near a school year not eating lunch, because I had no one to sit with. I'd just sit in the library, or, if I was really hungry, eat in the bathroom.
