Depression ; what to do?

[Anonymous]

Been depressed for 7 months.

Dropped school, can't seem to enjoy people's company, can't see the excitement in everyday things, not even able to wash myself every damm day.
Can't see the end of the road because I'm not even able to see myself " happy ".
Cry a lot for no reason. Can't understand how people are able to live, for real.
Don't know what I'm going to do in September...
I don't like " I " because it'll refer to a human being, but I'm honestly just a thing which stays in bed most of the time..

Don't know what to do?
I'm 18 by the way.

Sorry about that, probably just looking for reconfort

When I had a depression, I found something that I could find comfort in. Music and writing. It made me happy, and I was what I hold on to.
Then I also talked with someone, that I trusted. Just said it out loud, which made me feel a lot better. I also wrote with a lot of people on the internet, who liked me for who I was, without even have seen a picture of me. Everyone was anonymous, but it also made me happy.
I had a depression for one year. I changed my appearance. Cut my hair short and wore something different, which made my "friends" notice me.
At last it just became better. I have no idea how precisely, but I tried to make it the best even though, that nothing was good. But I found something to feel comfort in.

- please check out my recent question, thanks!

I understand how you feel about music, it's kinda the same for me ; but it's not something that will confort me. It's more something that will make me think about nothing, which is actually a blessing as I'm always thinking about something...
It's nice to have someone you trust, someone you know you can speak easily to. Someone you can tell whatever you want... Never had someone like that because of school's changes due to my father work, and me being strange doesn't help either rolf
It must be nice though, having someone like that.

Guess what's gonna help me is time

About your question just don't think too much of it (his behavior), you got hints now's your turn ; go to him, tell him or write him something? I definitely would find that adorable.

My class and "friends" was a big part of why I had a depression, but I guess I chose wisely and talked to the one, who seemed like a person who liked everyone. Today she is my best friend.
Time also helped me, yes, and it's hell, but suddenly everything just cleared up.
I wish all good for you! x

Thanks for the answer btw!

Thanks to you lel, I pretty much did nothing.

It's gotta start with a decision first my friend. A decision to get out of the rut. Find something positive that you like. THINK only about positive things. Get out there and find a hobby and mix with like minded people. The worst thing you can do is stay at home isolated thinking only about bad stuff. It's possible to get out of where you're at. And you won't feel great straight away. The feelings will catch up in time. It takes time but it's possible.

I can't do this dude, I just know it... Not a question of being able or some shit, it's a question of motivation, I literally feel empty

Remember I said the feelings will catch up in time? You have to do it when you don't feel like it

You're one optimistic man, I'm kinda jealous ahaha

[Opinion Owner]

It's cool. Tryyyy it though. You have to try. YOU can DO IT :)

[Asker]

guess its just impossible after all

[Opinion Owner]

No it isn't. I got out of it. And so can you. But you have to really want to

I'm in the same boat as you. I actually managed o be somewhat happy for a while. just get take small steps to make a daily routine habitual. like start with getting in the habit of brushin your teeth as soon as you wake up. then go into showers etc etc. it won't be easy
