I think I might be depressed but I'm not sure..

Posted , 2 users are following.

Ever since i got into university i gained a lot of wait eating just junkfood, i feel empty most of the time and i would space out alot or day dream. I haven't though of suicide but i did cut myself once and i want to do it again but im holding back. I slowlly started distancing myself from all my friends and i didnt notice till recently. I barely go out, and I barely see any of my family members. Whenever i do i always get into arguments with them. I feel like im bored and sick of this life, i just want to go far away. Am i depressed or just being pathetic? and do i need help or will this pass?

    hELLO jAE, EVERYONE SUFFERS FROM OSCILLATING MOODS FROM TIME TO TIME...oNE minute up , next minute down.  if you have been experiencing "depressive" symptoms for more than a week or so, it may be a good idea to visit your GP..... Can't think of more to say, apart from the professionals should be the first port of call. You are NOT pathetic, depression can strike young and old alike, and really takes you by surprise......Best wishes, George.
