For roughly two or three years I've been in a bad bout of depression, mostly due to family circumstances and the death of my father. It was pretty bad: my marks and attendance dropped at school and I lost my spot on the honor role. I stopped playing soccer, drawing and doing most of the things I used to love. I lost a couple friends and became distant from the ones I kept.
But a couple months ago, I started to feel better and began to go back to normal. It kinda felt like I woke up after two years. I've doing the things I love again and have been working hard to get into my dream university program. But lately, with the passing of my dad's birthday and the up coming two year anniversary of his death, I feel the depression coming on again. I missed a day and a half of school last week, because I couldn't get out of bed.
I want to stop it before it gets bad again, and messes up my life but nothing seems to be helping. So any tips on how you stop depression would be helpful. Or advice if you've been in a similar situation.
