It makes sense.

You probably are depressed. Get some professional help, Lady. And good luck.

Answer 2

Oh God I'm really sorry to hear that sweetie. I was once in your shoes and believe it or not it can get better. There is a way to feel better, I don't know what religion your from but prayer helps so much.It help me inside and out, it help me realize the purpose of existing that was forgotten. Too many nice things have happen once I came to prayer.Hang on tight and let him guide you, I know it's hard and you wish it was just over with, but later you will look back and be thankful you are still around~ If you ever need to talk send me a message I will be there for you. Take Care Sweetie.

Knowing & Understanding: There's A Difference

A man with eight PhDs - he was proud of his achievement - met a monk. The monk asked him, "Why have you been so foolish in life?" The man said: "But I have eight PhDs!"

"I have understood you; it is foolish to spend the best part of life reading instead of enjoying the birds, stars and the moon", said the monk.

"You may have knowledge but not clarity; you may know a lot and yet understand nothing".

What does one have to understand about life?

You have many centres: Intellectual centre, an emotional centre and a body centre. In each centre, there is a mechanical and magnetic part. The mechanical part acts like a machine while the magnetic part acts with ore awareness.

You have to transform yourself. Your mechanical movements and thinking have to change. Your mechanical emotions like jea- lousy and hatred have to be overcome. You can do this by bringing in more awareness.

Then a complete being will emerge. When you increase awareness, even poison can turn into medicine; and with no awareness, medicine can become poison.

Why are we so mechanical?

A king dreamt that he was a beggar. His guru, in his dreams, told him the truth that he was a king and not a beggar. Now was he to argue with his guru or just wake up?

The question of "why" cannot be answered. When did time begin? You cannot answer such a question. Which came first, egg or hen? There is a logical fallacy in the very question. Realise that we are mechanical. Bring in more awareness and see the life-transformation.

Even inert objects have life. Treat any object with loving awareness and it will guide you mysteriously. Your intuition and purity have to increase to receive this message. When you bathe, lovingly talk to water.

In a relationship, is it not necessary to judge? >>


In a relationship, is it not necessary to judge?

Keep yourself relaxed. Increase your awareness and love. Not to judge should not be a conclusion. Don't make it a demand or compulsion. Let there be a choice. There is a difference between "should' and "choice'.

"Should' creates stress; it limits you to only one option. Choose not to judge. It is not a demand but a wise choice.

The danger of judgment is that you stop seeing the object of judgment and you are more in your judgment.

In life, you have to make judgments, but don't be a victim of your judgments. Suppose a thief enters your house, you have to judge him but then, be open to the possibility that he could change.

Suppose you meet him after 10 years, see if he has changed or not. Do you still judge from the memory that he has been a thief? If you do not have this awareness, you will not see the change in a person even if he has changed.

What should one be really aware of?

Negative emotions poison. Like avoiding poisonous food, avoid negative emotions. Don't identify with them. Don't participate in them. Choose to create a new will, not be driven by negative emotions.

They deplete your energy. They keep you asleep. They are harmful and heavy. They make your life complicated. For example somebody's success should not be your failure. We define our failure by somebody's success.

We feel jealous seeing someone successful. Jealousy is a great poison.

Compete with your potential. Even if you compete with others, enjoy it. See beauty all around. Do not define your success and failure by someone's success and failure.

Answer 4

If you are using words like perfect, loads of friends, fun, laughs, i don't think you are depressed. If everything is so great, then what seems to be the problem? I've never heard of someone who is depressed who has loads of laughs and loads of friends and a perfect boyfriend. I think you just like attention.

Answer 5

I'm sorry to hear things are not going well. Its going to get better for you. I think YO-NO is right-prayer changes things if you really believe. Keep a positive attitude. I've never really confided this in fam or friends, but I've felt the way you're feeling-millions of people do from time to time. Maybe you're depressed or maybe you're letting your emotions deceive you (they are if they're telling you dying would make things easier), but try concentrating on the positive things in your life. If you can't think of any, you are breathing, right? Many people didn't wake up this morning. Everyone is fighting their own battles, from the richest to the poorest of us and we'll get through this. Best wishes babe!! :)

Answer 6

I see no reason for you to feel that way. Seems you may have everything you need to be content, so yes, I guess it's safe enough to call it depression. Talk to someone u trust if it doesn't help seek medical advice. Good luck!

Answer 7

more than likely you are depressed. it doesnt sound to me like youre completly depressed, but to some extente you are and maybe you should see a doctor and be put on medicine and see if it helps. taking your own life is never the answer, its selfish and there are ALWAYS other options. it's never worht it. best of luck to you. =)

Answer 8

its possible, i would go talk to someone, go take a test online & c what ur answers r, then take the answers 2 ur doctor. they will determine if u r or not. if the say or think u r they will get u some meds.

Answer 9

See your dr. Sounds like depression to me. Good luck.
