Hey liftmeup, thanks for the kind words.
I'm glad that people like us can communicate over the internet.
I'm sure we have both had our struggles and things.
I have actually tried group as well. I did it for about 4 months and I was too shy so I felt that it didn't benefit me as much.
But since you seem to be a big believer in it then maybe I will try it again.
What you said about the past is 100% true. No matter how hard I try, the past is the past and I can't do anything about it.
My only concern is will my future be brighter or will my life take a turn for the worst?
Sometimes I feel like things will only get worse.

I am glad so many people here are so welcoming.
Right now I am now Prozac and yeah I do go see a therapist. I have seen one for more than a year now.
I have skipped around medicine, starting with Welbutrin and going to Prozac and one more.
I have tried St. John's Wort and it was alright.
I hear that exercise is good but I just can't seem to muster up the motivation to do it.
I am doing pretty poorly in school now and I just want things go back to the way they were when I was not depressed, but to me it just feels like wishful thinking.
I have a lot of finacial problems as well and this is only aggrivating the problem.

Hello, I have dealt with problems with depression for about 7 years now. (I am 21 now).
I just don't have the motivation to do things anymore.
I don't care about school and my future and my relationship (or lack of).
I just feel like I am floating in the ocean of life and not caring where it takes me.
I have been on medication for years now and it makes me feel better but not feel more motivated to accomplish things.
What can I do? I miss actually LIVING life you know.

I am new to this board.
To introduce my situation briefly, I am a 22 year old college male and I have been diagnosed with depression for about 4 years now. I have had the symptoms for about 7 years but i was too scared to tell anyone I had a problem so i kept it to myself for about 3 years.
So most of my high schools years were taken over by this condition. I never dated and have no experience/ interest in dating when I was in high school. I am 22 now and as I see my friends pairing off and going separate ways, I kinda wanna do the same but I feel like depression is crippling to the point were its too hard.
Long story short, I want to date and but am too scared. I don't want to suffer a massive heartbreak. I also feel socially awkward at times and I just don't know.
I want to get one with my life and just live it but depression keeps pulling me back.
Any advice forum?

I have been on medication for about 3 years on and off and i was wondering if depression ever comes to an end or if it will drag on until the day i die.

Thanks Tomatheus, your words are very encouraging.
I think i will do what you suggested and weigh my options out. Maybe something will work out.
The only thing I'm afraid of is having this depression as a crutch for the rest of my life.
I want to just enjoy life for once you know.
