I have had depression for 5 months since returning from overseas, i am so unhappy here and cannot see anything changing, i spend all my time forcing myself ot get out of bed to a job i hate, have no friends, dont eat, cant sleep, feel like i have stuffed everything up, my friend is in the greek islands and i know that if i go it wont fix everything as my mind is the problem but it may help me get back to the happy girl i used to be? Or could it be a disaster and i will be in a strange country all alone in the same state of mind?

I was in south america then london and cmae home for reasons other than my own, nothing at home as changed just me and i have cut off all my friends as they have iether moved on or i have changed, i am now really quiet and not at all how i used to be, going is not going to fix the problem but it has to be better than lying in bed everyday and hiding from the world. it will only help to have my freind there so that i wont be all alone and if it is a disaster someone can help me.

Your problems are inside yourself. That means, wherever you go, they will follow you there. Going to Greece isn't going to get rid of your depression. In fact, it may end up damaging the relationship with your friend over there and then you'll just end up being more depressed. Nobody wants to be around someone who's depressed all the time. My advice is to work on yourself first before you go anywhere. Take some time off to think and reflect, be by yourself, work through your troubles or you'll just end up bringing everyone down around you. Find happiness first, then go out and see the world. You're wasting your time if you think you'll find happiness anywhere but inside yourself.

Where were you overseas? Why were you there? What did you do there?
What is different now that you are back home?
Where you happy before you went oversease?
Who is your friend?
Why would being with that friend make you happier?

Bali or Thailand.
Greece is beautiful, no doubt... Bali isn't a different country, it's a different planet.
