I don't know if I can keep fighting my depression. Everyday I consider suicide and this just never seems to stop. Will I ever get through this?

Perfect therapy for people who need help. I would like to say, I never can imagine it could be possible to heal people like that

I know how this feels, and it's definitely not going to feel easy
But where there's a will, there's a way
I'm sure you will get through it, a lot of people are fighting it too and I'm sure you can make it past with them
Yes you will. I personally have and i know that i never believed it when i was told it would pass. But every day I told myself well ill just stick it out one more day.. or told myself my dog would be sad.. or no one would water the plants and other random stuff like that. Its hard to find big things to stay alive for when you feel like nothing matters so id say focus on the little stuff- i never thought id make it past 15 but years later im still here. People care about you- be it a stranger online or a relative. Maybe its even your pet, but someone/something out there would feel empty and dull without meeting/knowing you.
Fighting with depression could surely be hard and sometimes you may feel like you won't be able to fight more but somehow you make through the day- maybe in a healthy way or in an unhealthy way! It does seem like the situation must be really hard for you and might seem intolerable as well but maybe try thinking about how far you have come! Maybe try to think about the changes that you could make instead of giving up! Maybe try to ask yourself if you should really give up for the situation you are in? Things may not seem to change but they will change at some point and you'll be able to get through this for sure! You are strong, you are brave, you have come a long way and it will surely take time, things might not change for you today or tomorrow but they will change someday! Good luck, keep going, you'll get through this! (:
