I'm pretty much in the same category as
eagle. I've always felt down in the
dumps, I can't seem to have a friendship
which I don't ruin (usually by doing
something mean to my friend), and I play
computer games all day. I don't do my
homework, and its hurting my gpa. I was
on prozac for a while, and it didn't work
( I gave it about 3 months). I was on
paxil at one point too, and it just made
me more depressed. Right now i'm on
wellbutrin, and it's making me very tired
(haven't been on it long enough for it to
kick in). A year ago I was doing self
destructive behavior, running around at
night, drinking, causing trouble. I
eventually stopped the crazy antics, but
only because I found a haven in computer
games. In the summer, I played around 75
hours a week. I didn't go out to see a
single friend ( I haven't really hung out
with anyone since last school year). My
friends were other people who played games
with me, who lived miles away. Now,
recently I vowed to stop playing the games
as much, and focus on school. But, I find
that I can't even open up wordpad to start
writing an essay. I'm not attentive in
class, and I just feel like going home and
sleeping while i'm at school. Please,
someone help me.
Thank you for reading this. I would
deeply appreciate any help ( I don't know
where to go from here). Thanks.

Hi,
depression can be quite scary and in
some cases medication is a good solution,
but I find the ease with which doctors
write prescriptions rather disturbing.
Depression is a very common mental health
issue, and one that can be worked through.
Sometimes it's best to figure things out
for yourself. I personally used a program
at selftherapy.Org which I thought was
terrific - it literally ended my anxiety
and panic attacks within days. Perhaps
your solution lies elsewhere.But I urge
you to not be too quick to pop pills that
will numb your desire to find a real
solution. I wish you the best!
