What I think it is ..is that your not following your passion. You need to find what you want whether it be love, wealth, intellect, to be attractive..whatever it may be and do everything in your power to achieve that which makes you feel fufilled. Never be afraid to let things go and move on. |

I've suffered from clinical depression for about 2 years now and this sounds pretty similar to what I go through. If this is a continuous thing, you should contact your doctor and he can prescribe you medication for it. |

This does sound like depression, but to be sure I'd go get help if I were you my friend. If it's getting worst, don't ignore it or think you can fight this alone, the first step to take is to talk to someone you trust, let out whats getting to you.
I've suffered and in some ways still suffering from depression and went through the same problem when school, and doing my everyday routine. My motivation was gone and it only got worst because I didn't seek help. Do something now because the situation worsens. It's never too late to turn it around the other way. Good luck! |

it sounds like you are depressed. why dont you see your doctor for some advice.
a good way to lift yourself out of negative thinking is to make sure you eat healthily, stay off alcohol, start a fitness program and get out and socialise with your friends. |

Two years is a long time for this, go talk to your doctor about this. Think about what would make you happy. Maybe a different field of work would be better? Maybe you need more exercise? Are you eating food that is good for you? It is possible that you need some medication too. Check out site below. Good luck. |

I think it is. See your doc and maybe he/she can put you on antidepressants.
Or maybe you just need a holiday |

it could be, or you could just be burnt out and need a major change in pace. however, i am not a Dr. and you should really go see one if you think that you are depressed. you will feel much better! |

No one but a doctor or psychiatrist (i prefer the latter) can diagnose depression, but that's how mine started. I would be all excited about school and then the second semester I couldn't make myself go because it just didn't matter. But it has to have lasted for over a couple months straight to be official "depression" otherwise you're just having an off couple of weeks (which does happen) |

I'm not a doctor, but all the symptoms you listed sounds like what I've heard to be depression, you might want to talk to a doctor, or pshycologist, they can diagnose you. What do you have to lose it can only make you feel better if your feeling as bad as you say you are, it could probablly only get better |

it certainly could be.
but it could be some sort of anxiety.
does everything seem gray?
do you laugh less?
Try talking to a doc or psychiatrist or counselor. |

Definitely depression. If it's just a biochemical thing, an antidepressant med may be all you need, but I recommend seeing a counselor first. If you're in school, there should be free counseling available. You do sound like you're ensnared by "negative thinking," but that's not something you can fix by just deciding to "think positive." Depression caused by negative thinking patterns is very responsive to something called "cognitive therapy." Also, statements like "i love my job but i just don't care about it any more" are so totally illogical it makes me think you are blocking some kind of really painful thoughts or feelings, & maybe a therapist could help you get past the block. |

Yes that sounds like depression and that is not your fault. Depression is caused by a chemical imballance in the brain. Just like diabestes is a chemical imballance with insulin. Get an apointment with a psychiatrist and get evaluated for depression. |

Yes I think you might be depressed. Esp if you can't get excited or happy about anything. Sometimes depression feels like a dark cloud hanging over you. Why don't you get counselling? Just check out some counsellors....often they do a subsidised rate and stuff for students if you go to the right place. Just say you think you are depressed and you want to talk about it..then tell them what you wrote here. Also there are those free ones....the free phone counselling lines. When I was younger i trained to work on one of those so the people have some training and stuff. You need to fix this. good luck. Also if you do get counselling its important to make sure you are comfortable with the person before spilling your guts too much..not every counsellor will be right for you. |

Yeah it probably is, maybe you could try some anti depressants and counseling ... I will probably really help if you talk 2 someone. |

Take this to a doctor
who will recommend a specialist
for you. A pill may do it, or
a long series of conversations. |

I have suffered from dystemia (a lesser grade of depression) for nearly my whole life. It sounds like you may have this form of depression. The only real answer is to ask somebody you trust to refer you to a psychistrist. Please get help now; it sounds like you are still young enough to make some real progress. |

It sounds like depression to me. If it's bugging you that your not sure whether its real or in your head, then check out some websites on depression (they're easy to find if you just put it in a search engine) and you should be able to match up you symptoms to a list. This will give you a better idea of whats going on, and also offer you some tips on coping and how to turn things around.
If you are still in doubt, go to the doctor and they will be able to confirm it for you and give you a hand in the right direction. There are loads of options available, the hardest thing is just working yourself up to a point were you feel able to use them.
Even though it's been going on for a few years now don't lose hope; you will come through it evenualy. It may not be all sunshine and rainbows when you do, but it will be better; and once you start having a few good days you can start to imagain a better future. Things will go wrong and bring you back down for a while (like you have been experiancing already) but its a cycle you can break. Look into cognitive therapy. Its practical and easy to do over the web if you dont want to go to a specialist. You can also take what you want from it and skip the bits which sound stupid to you.
I completly understand the loss of motivation towards work and your classes. If there's a way to make it easyer then take it. Concider how important they are to you in the scheme of things. If you really love your job then at some point you will begin to enjoy it again, but if it seems like a dead end to you and you dont care about it anymore then maby quittng, or seeing if you can take some time off is a good idea.
Try and keep up with your work, even if it dose seem pointless. In the end it'll help you make sure you dont end up doing the same thing all your life like you fear.
If youv'e got people to talk to about how your feeling then make good use of it they're their to help. If you dont right now then try to open up to someone who you can rely on and fell comfprtable with.
Don't worry, however you feel now it will fade in time, so don't give up. Hope this helped a bit. |

yes a little bit... but you don't need anti depressants... all you need is a time off work and a trip to a very relaxing place and think about yourself for once... relax and forget about the things you have been through.. and when you're working... do it with a smile... even though the work is hard. when u smile and laugh aroung while you work you won't even feel like you're working... enjoy life!!! don't over work yourself too much! |

Yeah, it does, sorry to say bud.
Try to talk to a doctor. Try to stay away from pills though, you don't want an addiction or any suicide provider. I can't help you any more than anyone else on here, see a doctor. It may not seem effective, but it can do wonders.
Good luck, tell me how everything goes. :]
Remember, be completely honest, or they may mis-diagnose you.
Good luck! ^^ |
