I take three sleeping pills a night, and every night two headache pills. It helps somewhat, but now I have been thinking about taking more of those pills. It would be easy to OD, and even easier to slit my wrists. I am alone at my house for nearly 2 hours a day.
I'm talking to someone, but I can't completely open up to them. I'm tired of trying to open up to people. I feel as if everyone would lie.
Honestly, I don't want to feel better. I've been this way so long, I don't trust change. What if I do get better, and is there a better? I have no friends in school, I'm too shy. I sit in the back, crying or not I go unnoticed.
I was sexually and physically abused when I was younger. Its hard now, I don't know what to do. There are so many lies, no one can be trusted. I'm starting to hate the world.The only reason I am not dead yet is because I'm afraid of hell.
Should I go on antidepressents? Please be serious, though I bet some of you will be mean, always someone like that.

Anti depressants can and do help a lot of people. Only a Dr will know if you should take them. You say you are talking to someone, can you ask them about medication possibilities? I have felt like you are feeling, medication and talk therapy helped me. I felt some of the therapists were fake or lying, but there were two that I really trusted and believed. Can you try and find someone else to talk to? It's not easy and I hope you can find some answers you are looking for.

Talk to a doctor. Maybe you need to go on antidepressants. A doctor can make that determination seeing you in person. People shouldn't be telling you over the internet whether or not you need anti-depressants. I am attaching a bibliography of helpful sites.
Your articulate.
The can be enjoyment in life again. There are still good people in the world and enjoyable things to be done.
Open up with people that are trustworthy.

You definitely have chronic depression. There are so many wonderful meds that will take you out of that big black hole. As a fellow sufferer, I can tell you that anti-depressants work really fast (5-10 days.) You can just feel the depression lift, and you're not just going through the motions anymore. You laugh real laughs! Suicide is out of the question. You'll realize that it's the most cowardly and selfish thing you can do to those you love you. It's a sin, no matter what your religion, and that's pretty scary! Get to your doctor ASAP. Tell him/her EVERYTHING. That will help him figure out which med will work best for you. It'll be the best thing you've ever done for yourself. Make that appt. tomorrow, ok:? OK!! :)

You need to see a doctor. Even if you don't feel like you want to get better, you need to see a doctor. I was on ADs for 3 years, and can honestly say it was the best thing I ever did. Good luck to you.
