I always feel so alone. Even when I'm not. And I snap at people for no reason. I just get mad or annoyed but I don't know why. I cry atleast once a day. I have thought about killing myself but never bring myself to do it. There are some days when I just want to be alone and lay in bed all day. But then there are days when I don't even want to stay home at all. Does everyone feel like this and never say anything? Or is it just me?

Wow you just took the words right out of my mouth. I feel exactly the same. I have bipolar and it took awhile for me to get diagnosed. You should see a doctor so you can talk about all this stuff. At least someone you feel comfortable talking to.

It sounds like from your description, that you may be bipolar. I am bipolar, and sometimes I do exactly the same things you are talking about. I too have had thoughts of suicide; and have moments when is all I want to do is sleep; or up all day and most of the night. When I'm wanting to lay in bed all day and for people to leave me alone, that is the depressed side; but when I'm manic, I feel GREAT! Up all hours of the night or day. The manic side is what kicks off the depressed side of bipolar. But you truly need to see a doctor. Only he can help you; there is so much medication now that works so well. In fact my doctor told me that bipolar is one of the most treatable conditions there is. Even if you have just depression, there is medication that can help; and you feel so much better, questioning "why did I wait so long before I went to the doctor." Sogo to the doctor and get help.

It sound like both, but then I'm not a trained professional. Have u tried seeking help? If u have health insurance start with a visit to your doctor. They can refer you to the right doctor or therapist. Could also be a chemical imbalance caused by diet or physiology. Just don't give in to the feelings of suicide. it's a path that has no return. When things are down and these feeling surface there are phone volunteers that can help u when things are at there worst. Call 411 and they can connect u to help. Do u belong to a church congregation? They might have a help group there, refer u to one and the minister or priest can be of help to u as well. As bad as it might seem at any given moment thing ca and will get better. Don't give up.

I found that good nutrition and exercise is extremely important. Eat fruits and vegetables and try to exercise (eg. jogging) at least four times a week. You will look healthier and feel better about yourself. Avoid soda and products with corn syrup or preservatives.
Read labels on the food you buy and eat. There is nothing wrong with you that good nutrition and exercise can correct.

Sometimes when you are depressed, you may have times where you feel perfectly fine, however if you feel or if you are told that you are more hyper than usual, you should probably talk to a doctor.

Please go to your doctor and ask for a referral to an appropriate Mental Health source .. there is no way that any one here on this forum can properly diagnose you at this point in time.
