    Default Seasonal Depression or Hopelessness

    I've been reading a few threads on depression lateley and I'm finding myself in the same boat. I mean I've been depressed before but never like this.

    I'm feeling like I'm not going to live very long and have like zero hope for the future.

    I've just recently moved back in with my parents in the middle of nowhere, so I know that might be part of it, but I used to be able to see past the current and at least dream of a future. I catch myself believing I won't even be around very long to plan for anything. I've never felt this hopeless before.

    I've considered even pills but don't have insurance so that'll have to wait.

    I start a new job in about a week so I'm sure that'll help, what the fuck is going on.

    Has anyone ever felt like they weren't going to live very long because of depression? I keep marvelling at people who live to see their fortieth birthday. I don't know why I feel like something is going to happen, not by my own doing.

    It was honestly easier to be homeless...

    Oh hon I feel like that a lot. I have days when I am great and others where I just am so sad. NOTHING helps.

    I have been off Lexapro for a few months now, and while I have had no panic attacks, I still get anxious or angry.

    I dont have much advice but if you ever wanna rant or just go off... pm me. I am here. And I know that its always better to have someone who understands, than someone who will look at you like, "wtf? Get a grip. Your life is great"

    Thanks for the reply. You're sweet.

    I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one. This feeling is starting to scare me.

    Right now I have days where my mood is cycling, not to extremes but still, it makes me stop and wonder.

    I have been in your situation & I fought it by exercising, keeping myself amused or educated (the internet is a cheap way to do this) and constantly looking for a way out of the spot I was in...It took a long time but I'm much better off now.

    I felt that I wouldn't live long for a long time....I think that is a feature of depression....Now I have the mindset that I don't care how long I live as long as I make the most of the time & resources I have NOW, which helps me from getting stuck in ruts.
