Advice Question

How do you get over depression?

Okay I've been asking for Internet help for months to quell this problem. I just feel like I'm a BIG failure everytime I screw something up and I feel like 2012 is coming, no matter how hard I try to fight it.

I've been suffering from serious depression lately. No one would ever listens to my problems, and they think I'm weird cause I like things that no one does,(e.g. I like Green Hornet, which to many people is crap) and they sneer at me all the time. How do I boost my self esteem? And how can I make myself feel better?

Any help would be appreciated. Maybe I'll give props to anyone with a good answer.

First take a deep breath(Don't forget to exhale)

Now,with depression do things you KNOW you are good at.If you have serious depression(which you do)you will say you are not good at anything.So,do new,exciting things you Like!

And with you having a different taste in things,I suffer from the same thing.This is what I say,"I'm proud to be Unique!)If you say the same things,the sneers will eventually go away.

Liking other things is okay. There will always be people who sneer at that, but don't mind them. Look for people who do like the things you like, if you can't find them where you live, look for fanclubs and forums on the internet. That way you can at least share your interests with other people.

About depression: If what you are feeling is more than 'a little down' for a little while (that kinda happens to anyone), but more really depressed for a long time, get professional help. If you are really depressed, professional help is really important in recovery.
I'm sorry if that is not what you want to hear, but it not a bad thing to ask for help from people who know how to deal with these kind of problems

Hello first things first. Nothing is ever quite as bad as it seems to begin with. I am the worlds biggest worrier and like you I like things that make me sound odd. However I have learn a few things during my 35 years of life. Number one You are you and if someone does not like it too bad. I will not change me and what I think for anyone. I am unique. when I am feeling low fed up and a bit depressed I go for a walk and sort everything out thats in my head at least so I know what I will do next about what ever it is or at least write it down on paper. Finally Life is hard people can be horrible but you are bigger than that you have proved that by coming on here and telling us about it.
