I am depressed and do not know what to do?
This is going to be long so if you take the time to read it i appreciate it alot. I am turning 18 in a week and just graduated from highschool 5 months ago. It all started at the end of grade 11 after my girlfriend who I actually was in love with an was with for 2 years dumped me because I was a fucking idiot and got messed up one night and cheated and in the end she could never get over the way I hurt her. During that summer I was very depressed and upset all the time and thought if I just gave it time I would get over it all. Grade 12 came and things were getting a little better but then all of a sudden it got wose again with the pressure i was in at school and has not stopped since.
I went to my mom once about in at the being of grade 12 and told her I felt depressed, she didnt really believe me to much and did not think it was so serious that I was ACTUALLY depressed. But she took me to a person that I could talk to. I sat with that person for about an hour talking about all my problems. She was a very nice girl, easy to talk to but for me personally I didnt come anyway with anything. After that and since then I have just kept quiet about it. I have the type of personality that lets even the littles things get to me and I hate it. Just recently I found out my dad was cheating and I never told my mom because I didnt want to see what it would do to her and my little brother, I personally dont think I could handle a divorce either, its something I have never thought of with my parents.
So now I am going on 18 and for the 5 months I have been graduated I have gone through 3 jobs that I have stayed at for a month at the most because I get so depressed with them and dread it everyday. I just took a few "depression quiz" on the internet and on all of them it usually says if you anwser yes to 3 or more of these questions you need some help, I am finding my self honestly anwsering yes to 9 or 10 of the 10 questions.
I just really dont know what to do anymore, I do nothing with my life, I have no license and I am smoking more pot then ever. From grade 9 till 11 I was a pretty popular guy at school, I was confident, athletic and one of the top football players in my city. I mean i had the friends, I had the girlfriend and I had the girls who wanted me ( not to sound conceded) but life was good, it was great and but now its just horrible. I am tiered of being an embarrassment to my family and feeling like im worthless. I find myself even breaking into tears on a daily basis in fact im crying as I write this message. I hate my life and wish more then anything it wasnt like this…I wish i still had her, its been almost 2 years since we broke up and I secretly am still in love with her but shes long moved on.
Im not a person who even has faith in god or heaven or hell and just think when you die your dead. I have countless thought on why not just end it so I dont have to deal with the rest of life, ive already seen how tough it can be and Im not even 18 yet.
I know its pathetic that I can come on here and type out my problems to the world of Yahoo anwsers but cantsimply find anyone to talk to but I just dont know what to do anymore.
Talk to your mother again & tell her exactly how you feel. Also tell her that the 1st therapist that you went to didn’t help you. I smoke also but I find that when I smoke, it makes me think more about things that I can’t change but feel guilty about. Quit smoking for awhile & see if this makes you feel different. Try to get in contact with some of your old friends that you liked from school and try finding a job that you actually like. I know when I worked somewhere that I hated, I found it very difficult to get out of bed in the mornings. Don’t do anything to harm yourself without thinking of the consequences that it would have on your family. Good luck to you.

It sounds like you are going through a rough patch. When things get hard, it is important to remind yourself that it will pass, things will get better.
It has been recommended to consider getting involved with some activities that you enjoy doing, keep yourself busy and involved and you may just find yourself being happy again. It is also advisable to have some long talks with a close friend, maybe some girls who are friends of yours and tell them how you are feeling. I also agree that you should stop smoking pot for a while as well as any other drugs you may be doing, they can intensify the depression and cause you to not think clearly. Pot may numb your mind for a while, but it isn’t a long-term solution.
Meeting with a phychologist one time probably isn’t enough to help you and I don’t know if she was even a phychologist or a social worker. But if you feel that your depression has gone on too long and you aren’t getting any better, it may be time to find someone you can meet with on a regular basis for a while. Talk with you Mom and be honest with her. She may be able to get you to meet with someone through her insurance.
I went through a period of depression when I was 17 as well, but it did pass and I had some of the best years of my life after that. College years, whether you go or not, can be a lot of fun. It is a time when you learn a lot about life, make a lot of great new friends and learn a lot more about yourself. Don’t focus on the past and who you used to be, trying to get that back. Focus on the now and the future and who you want to become, what you want to do to be happy, it will all work out, trust me. I’ve been through it and it will work out.
