You have pretty serious depression. I denied mine for years and had to go see a doctor after years of depression. I went last week as I was close to just having a nervous breakdown. I am now using anti-depressants, and they are beginning to work. Some people actually have a deficiency of the good chemicals in the brain that make you happy (serotonin). Anti-depressants gradually bring those chemicals into the proper balance.

I am not saying that is the case for you. Who knows? But you have to go in and see a professional who can diagnose what you need. It may be counseling or anti-depressants, or both. When you get yourself help and get rid of the negative feelings, everything else will begin to seem more manageable.

Please just go in and see a doctor. Be honest about your feelings and everything and they will help you. Don't wait as long as I did to reach out and ask for help.

Good luck!
