I am 22 and i have been suffering from depression on and of since i was 18. I used to Drink alot as i felt it was the only thing that helped it made me feel like i could be myself. Last year i got really bad and was drinking pretty much everyday, December last year i started getting worse and worse i came of the drink as i couldnt be botherd with it anymore i wanted to change but in March i started taken panic attacks and suffering from really bad anxitey! This has been the worse year of my life been on and of diffrent medication nothing was helping! I then decided to deal with it without tablets. I have fought threw it and i have felt alot better the past few weeks but i still dont feel myself somedays i feel really confident and have alot of energy and the next day i just want to lie in my bed and cry for no reason. I overthing everything i get very suicidal sometimes and get the weirdest thoughts going threw my head! i feel like am going mad and no one understands! anyone else had the same thing?

The hardest thing that they all have to accept, when they ask, “how do I get that part of me back?” is in realising that occasionally, some people fly into space and don't come back. Families ask and it's just as hard for them to accept that the little boys or girls they used to know, before the drink and drugs, will never come back to them.
The answer though is in making good of what you have left after all of the destruction. I use the space metaphor again by saying... well, you're floating up there in space so you might as well do something while you're there. That's what you need to focus on, Nix92. Creating something new for yourself to focus on.
I think, reading your comment, something is missing in you. Drink was the missing piece of the puzzle in the past, Now you don't have it. So what else is there? What is there, in your life, that can be constructive? If there is nothing, what is stopping you from creating it?

No, I think you're a human being with struggles.
There's an obvious shift in your mood between when you feel 'normal' and then don't feel like being here - not necessarily suicidal but just want to be dead, sort of thing. I'm wondering, what sort of environment do you live in? What stresses do you have in life now when it comes to daily living?
