Maybe you are trying to hard, just relax.  Talking as natural as it should be, isn't always easy for some to do in the company of others, but I think if you were to not put too much effort into it, it would just come normal.  I am sure you have got opinions about things, just pick your time, don't just talk for talking sake, because then you may babble and talk a whole lot of nonsense.  Speak up when you know you have something soound to contribute and after\nawhile you will be saying more than even you realize.  Baby steps, you'll be o.k   Talking is overated anyway :)

what do you do as a job? i found that i had to change my attitude in a lot of different areas of my life. i don't know exactly what i'd suggest for you since i'm not sure what type of work you do. are you religious at all? that is something i got away from and i found myself sinking deeper and deeper into anger and despair. have you talked to your doctor about it? i have had to stay on an antidepressant. my family has a history of depression. sometimes we just have chemicals in our brains that are out of whack. it is hard to deal with life if your brain isn't working properly. i have made myself always look on the bright side. i dont' know you, but as a starter, you can be happy that you have a roof over your head and at least some type of employment. i honestly know how you feel. please don't consider killing yourself. i don't know how many times i made passive/aggressive attempts to harm myself. i was wreckless and i did not care at all. it's an awful feeling. i really suggest you talk to a doctor. psychological sickness is the same as physical sickness. some people do not understand that. there are methods to heal yourself. please talk to someone. i'll say a prayer for you.

you know, pal, i came through this stage too, and I'm only 13. I may sound dorky but I found a way to stop being depressed. first of all, search your heart and your subconscious mind. is there anything that happened in past that affected you, like your boyfriend dumping you or your parents ignoring you? whatever it is, sort it out, write it down in a piece of paper, then mail it to somebody without your name and return address. or if you're afraid of rejection of the mail, burn the paper. then after that, throw away your ouija board. burn it. the ouija board is a powerful source of emotional distress. then since you drench your pain in your fathers alcohol, STAY AWAY FROM ALCOHOL. Dare yourself not to go anywhere near that alcohol. Have a fear of the alcohol, just as you must have a fear of the ouija board. think of them as awakening pains. then lock yourself in a room, sit in a "yoga position" then peacefully, meditate your problem. if u still have the ashes of the burnt paper, put it in a goblet, hold it while meditating, then if u feel u want the presence of the ouija board or the alcohol, just cry. cry and dont stand up, just cry your tears into the goblet. another, listen to music. not PUNK, ROCK, BLUES or any depressing music. listen to soothing music, music that is really deserving to be called MUSIC. and when the weather is warm, go out, take a little stroll, appreciate the oxygen, the plants and the people around. and remember, count your blessings. you are not among the population of people who cannot even eat or use computers. count your blessing. you have your father. you have your life. you have your house, your room and your account in yahoo. they are all simple, but when you compare them to other people, ponder. do they have a chance to use computers?? more than half of the population of Earth havent even used a computer. pal, you are lucky. just try to have a different view.after you have that different view in life, refresh yourself then read Bible and go to church. if this doesnt work out, relax. its hard at first, but if you listen to God's words, depression will leave you. if this doesnt help, i suggest you contact a psychologist to help you.and dont forget, if u dont have money and u really need a counselor, you can have downpayment. this worked out for me, trust me, and i believe this will work out on you two. if you need further help, just send me an e-mail kiss_carraine14@yahoo.com and remember I can be your friend and I want to be your friend.

Why are you so upset? Your situation is really vauge. I suppose if there is nothing really wrong, then you might be suffering from depression. Other than that, I don't know what else to say. Wish I could help you out more. Best of luck.

Give it a little more time. If you find yourself still unhappy after 8 or 8 months, start looking.  Life's too short to be unhappy.

If you are that sad or depressed inside then eventually it will start to show on the outside as well. You need to try talking to someone about your thoughts and feelings right now and try to get out what's really bothering you or getting you down. If you get to feeling worse you  could see a doctor and maybe try medication to help you feel better like paxil or zoloft. Just don't let it drive you insane. Talk to someone.    Good luck.

"Depression: Poor me, what a world, what a way to go, what's the point, I am a dark cloud. Periodically depression and gloom will raise its head; no life is without it and depression as a stage follows no course or order. A treatment plan, medication, support groups, verbal therapy may all help when one is in despair. To fight depression one also needs to be proactive. I'm not telling anyone to walk around with an insipid, plastered-on grin, but to work with mental health professionals and keep your depression at normal levels. Depression can be a sign of acceptance and the possible drive to seek out treatment programs for your own emotional health, so again look at this as a warning sign."\n\ni got this from a site... anyways, i think the paragraph above is an insightful answer already... anyways, i personally think that it would be better if you talk your problems out to someone like a psych. they can even prescribe u with anti-depresants.. think of your access to drugs! haha.. just kiddin'!.. good luck, pal!

You have some very serious depression going on here, as well as extremely poor self esteem.  Find someone you can trust to talk to because you need to.  Go to your family doctor and he/she will refer you to someone who can help.

Just be true to yourself and you'll be fine.  If you ignore your feelings or fight your desire, THAT's when you'll be depressed.  Good luck.

First off, I think you should go and talk with someone. A leader in your church, someone from a group, your friends, someone who will just listen to you. If you don't want to actively seek out someone, you can pick up the phone and call many of the free lines out there, as they have very caring people on the other end of the phone that can help you out. \n\nYou sound like you are suffering from a severe depressive episode, and I think your best course of action would be to talk with someone who can help you through this. \n\nI hope you do the right thing and help yourself out. Don't hurt yourself; you still feel emotion and pain otherwise you wouldn't be asking this question right now.
