Depressed For Over 3 Months. Posted: 10-01-04 23:37pm
Hey. I am 17 and have been depressed for
over 3 months now. Some days I feel a
little bit better than others usually in
the day time. I have a girlfriend who is
15. She has been trying to help me
through this. But it is becoming too hard
for her lately. I know she wont leave me
but she is just tired of dealing with it.
I don't blame her. I am too. But I was
wondering, ever since I got depressed 3
months ago I feel like I don't have love
for her anymore, but some times I can feel
it a little bit. I was wondering if that
is another symptoms of depression. I
pretty much have all the other symptoms.
But that love feeling not being there is
to hard for me. I am so scared I won't
get it back. I want it back, I want to
love her again. We have been dating
almost 2 years now. I am starting to
feel like I am ruining our relationship
and everything is my fault. She crys so
much now and she barley has a happy look
on her face and before that one day we
were so good together. It hurts me so
much to know I am hurting her because I am
depressed.

High school and college are high-stress.
I was diagnosed with clinical depression
when I was 16. I tried throwing myself
down the stairs at school. I know what
you are going throuhg. I have a fiance'
and he really tries to help me but lately
nothing works and even he gets depressed.
Have you seen someone who can help you?
Perhaps you need meds. My doc changed
mine and I am slowly improving. If money
is an issue, there are all sorts of groups
out there willing to help you. If you are
still in school, try talking to a
counselor. I know it will feel strange,
but it can help you.
I wish you the best of luck!
