Why does depression have to bring me down to the point where I don't want to exist?

When in a depression, you feel like you're to much for this world and you only cause problems. Nobody understands you and your thoughts so you feel like you're weird and different. you feel like you're just a failure who never manages to do things right; the world would be beter off without you.

Depression can have that effect on people. It could lead you to start hating yourself, feeling unwanted, unworthy. But trust me it's not true it's just the depression controlling your thoughts. Pls, seek a professional help.

That my friend, is why it's called depression. It's a disorder that brings you down literally, all your hormones that supply happiness are down therefore you feel helpless. However, you shouldn't feel that way. We are here for a reason, *you* are here for a reason, depression or no and you have to remember that there is at least one person out there--including me--that wants you to exist.

Depression is a mental disease that will tell you that you are worth nothing, that you shouldn't exist but remember that this is not you, that those are not your thoughts. Depression can be compared to a black cloud looming over your head. You must take it, accept it, and morph it into a black dog that you hold onto tightly and you take the lead with and keep under control. You must learn to live with it but you will prevail and you must take my word when I say that your life is worth living and you are valuable.

Depression is a change in brain chemicals where all our 'happy' hormones, drop to a very low level causing us to think negatively and sadly.

Depression is just a thought that you tell yourself, telling yourself happy thoughts and it usually makes the depression go away.

Depression is something we all deal with someone does it earlier and some later few fights and few gives up! I have been through hard times when i wished that i never existed and now i know why i felt so and it's because I consider myself weak really weak and worthless!

Everything will be okay in the end, if it's not okay, it's not the end. Sometimes when it seems as if everything that could possibly go wrong is going wrong, we feel that we will be stuck in this negative, downtrodden rut forever. Sure the sun stops shining sometimes, and we may get a huge thunderstorm or two, but eventually the sun will come out to shine again. It is all a matter of us staying as positive as possible in order to make it to see the sunshine. If we let our negative circumstances, turn our positive thoughts into negative actions, it will take us longer to see the sun. If we reinforce our positive thoughts when we feel negative ones coming along it will seem as though the sun took no time to come. Ground yourself, look for the good in who you are, and in the situation, and remember to motivate yourself with your dreams. Stay positive my friend, for everything will be alright, maybe not today, but eventually!

That's what depression likes to do, and it's terrible. I suggest you try and seek some sort of help, whether it be therapy or even your parents or friends. You do matter.

Depression is like a leech, it feeds off of your despair. There's no real reason why, but you can always reach out for help to stay safe and healthy
