Hah yea I have been in this situation, so if you want a way out then read my answer;
First off the root of depression is thinking about only ones situations such as "Why don't I get this?" or "Why don't I get that?" When only thinking about oneself it turns into a dark and lonely world. The situation with depression is all in the mind and it can be solved within the mind.
Okay now I want you to ask yourself these questions;
- Imagine the state of mind when in depression - everything is black, hopeless, cold - try to really feel it in the heart.
- What am I so concerned about?
- Are there thoughts that keep on repeating themselves in my mind?
- Am I only concerned about myself, my own problems and pain?
- Am I realistic about my own situation?
- Am I really helpless, hopeless, hungry, completely alone, poor and cold?
- How many people in the world are really helpless, hopeless, hungry, alone and cold?
- Try to feel some compassion for their suffering.
Please realize that there are people in this world who have to drink dirty water, eat only 1 meal a day possibly only rice for the whole family, children who get abandoned by their parents and get left off in the streets, children who get beaten by their drunk parents on an occasion, women who have to do prostitution to earn a living, women who get raped and then get left off with a baby with no child support, people who lose their families because they live in war zones and then later lose themselves.
You will keep on being depressed until you stop thinking about your own little non life threatening situations. Life threatening situations are the ones that I have named. Once you have stopped thinking about only yourself then finally will you feel free of darkness and loneliness.
