i have already said a dream about this in the dream book but im now here to vent that i am depressed on the inside and i have no way that i know of to get rid of it i need some help with this

Quote:

There is a dream that i have always had and i pretty much need to get it out.

I remember when i was about 8 or 9 that i wrote a suicide note because i was so depressed from my parents arguing all the time...but now the dream i have is the different ways i can still kill myself...i know its sad but i have been keeping my depression down until now. this dream though is constantly happening because every day i am secretly getting more and more depressed i don't really know how to say this but i need help.

Oh hunny if you need to help there's the advice and guidance forum. We'd love to help you but there's not much that you're telling us that we can help you with.
If you need to rant, let it ALL out. We don't judge, we want you to let it all out.

We can't help you unless you tell us everything of what's happening D=

I agree with Karu. If you want advice, ask us in the advice area and yes, please be more specific then this. We can't help if we're in the dark to what's going on. Also, we'd take this a bit more seriously if next time you refrain from rolling dice. It just comes off the wrong way. Just thought I'd let you know. ^_~

ADD ON
I just read your entry in The Book of Dreams. Before, I wasn't yet aware that Karu had made such a thread and had no clue to what you were referring. Since that post had a more specific question, I added it into your first post. To help assist you further, I will move this to advice/guidance. I will send a PM notification of this.

My Response
Well the first step as always is admitting you have a problem. I would say to start off, don't keep it a secret anymore. If you aren't brave enough to tell you parents how you feel and how their actions are affecting you...then you can start by letting it out in here. From there I would move on to talking with someone you know and trust outside of the net. Like a counselor or...well you know what I mean. The worst possible thing you could do is hold it inside and keep it to yourself. It solves nothing and only makes the pain so much worse than it needs to be. I would know.

True but this type of depression cannot be dulled it can be slowed in its tracks but it cant be stopped. even with anti depressants they only work for a short while and people have to keep relying on that because their body wont produce the chemical that it did produce naturally before the anti-depressants. it's only a matter of how long i can keep the depression slowed enough that i can live my life to the fullest before it goes off. Everyone has a depression bomb some are able to withstand its pressures long enough but others cant hold it and they see a state that they cant seem to get out of. I am pretty much saying what i need to say about myself and what i need to do to stop the depression from growing faster than it already is.

When people see me they only scratch the surface of who i am. on the inside im a depression bomb but my outside sell of me keeps it from going off. Just like Yellowstone national park. As i have already ranted that i could for today i will say one more thing in this.

We are all the same and different in different ways it you don't get what im saying just remember that people are all holding in things that they don't think other people will understand or even believe but one thing is for sure if it come to depression or to anger its all held in your self. and i for 1 am holding in depression and anger together. just like Yellowstone national park. think of that.

Well, I understand that some people cannot overcome their depression. There are several types and I really don't know enough about you or your situation to offer any better suggestions to you then I already have. I'm sorry to hear if you feel like you are about to explode. Deal with it as you like. I'm just saying that I personally feel that it is more harmful over time to keep it locked up inside.
