I don't understand.

I thought I overcame depression- I thought I was going to do a lot of things with my life but I'm going backwards. I feel like a failure. I don't care too much about school or goals anymore....my motivation is low....I don't feel like trying to make more friends....I used to run for a sport, workout, and try to eat health...but that's all down the drain! I wished that since it was 2019, I could turn my life around but I'm back in the stupid gutter. My parents were being so supportive but they're back to being apathetic and telling me to stop being dramatic and 'get over it'. As if they don't know how difficult it is for me to 'get over' depression. I feel so alone. I want to die again! I hate this feeling! WHY MUST I SUFFER THIS PAIN WHILE EVERYONE ELSE IS HAPPY DOING THE THINGS IN THEIR LIFE?! sigh. that is just stupid life.

I'm really sorry to hear that. Sometimes with depression we can have good days and bad days, and we can still go backwads and forwards again. I like describing this using the quote..

"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." by Winston Churchill.

It can be especially hard to cope with depression, whether you are having a good day or bad day, when you don't have the support that you want and I am sorry that it sounds like your family is not giving you that support right now. There are many listeners here wo will always be here to listen if you want to get support.

You said that you thought you had gotten past Depression before and that you were going to do a lot of things with your life. What is it that you were doing before that was helping you to cope with depression? Is there anything in that that you may have stopped doing or you can do again that may help you feel better now?
