there have been lots of times when i have been depressed, i cry sometimes. like uncontrolably for hours, but that hasnt happened in a while. i usually do that when i know no one can hear me, because i dont think they would really get it. like most people i know they turn around and go “well you have it a lot better than some.” my best friend, and in some ways my only friend called me a spoilt bratt, when i was depressed on monday. thats why i dont trust her enough to talk to her, thats why i’m here.
i dont sound all “woe is me” because i am very aware that i have it better than some people. but that doenst stop me from feeling the menoncolia ( proberbly not how its spelt) most times.Â
other times i opt for different ways, when its not possible to cry – i hit myself, i get bruises for that, i cut myself, but the problem with that is it bleeds and you have to sort all the mess out, and i cant be dealing with that. i used to scratch myself, i hate my legs, i’ve always thought they were too big, (i’m size uk8, so thats always been ignored by most people) and i used to scratch the hell out of them. now i’ve taken to buring my self with lighters, above my ancle. it sounds like a stupid thing to do, but the pain puts a lot of things into perspective. ( i dont listen to MCR by the way. not that theres anything wrong with that, blah blah blah).
yesterday, friday night, i was working. the guy i work with, he owns the pub, and he also does the cooking (he calls himself a chef, but he has no qualifications). hes an arse. he’s impatient, impolite and the most irrational peorson i have ever met. hes completely horrible, he knows i’m easily affended, and that i have quite low self esttem, so he just pushes it until i get really upset. then he can go all “ooo, whos moody!?!” at me. i have to deal with him then going on about how useless i am, about how instead of telling me what to do, he’ll write and send a letter – that’ll be quicker. although, bless him, i doubt the brute could write. its not a terribly big thing, but it is hatefull when you have to deal with it on a regular basis. i doubt its worth £3.50 an hour.
he usually takes me home after i finish work, (my mum and dad know him), he didnt last night because i didnt want to go woth him, so i walked 3 miles home insead. at 9:30 at night. i’m a little worried about going in today, by the time anyones read this, i proberbly will have either gone there, or be there. so thats ok. but he’ll proberbly be making my time hell, cos he was working all through the night, and he was drunk. and i hate drunk people.
i still havn’t taken any of the sertraline, ‘cos, to be honest, i’m a little scared of what will happen.Â
i’m not sure if there was any real point to this post, sorry. i just had to get it out. i thought he was the reason i was feelling depressed latley, but i dont think he is. i don’t think its work related at all. i mean at most it’s proberbly just an anoyance. i mean, is it possible to be depressed for no reason? am i just a spoilt brat? proberbly.

yeah it is possible to be depressed for no reason. trust me, it isnt something you can choose. and even tho he is an annoyance you should seriosly tihnk and look for a new job if possible. for if your away from him, then maybe youll feel a bit better. i know from experince with situations similar that it is helpful by alot. try it, maybe youll see its looking up. also maybe find some new friends who really care. ever need anyone to talk to just post a reply and ill give you my email.
my email is back a few posts, im here to talk too. of course its possible to be depressed for no reason, dont let anyone tell you youre just a spoiled brat. nobody chooses to feel like that. its not natural.
i’m sorry that you’re depressed. i know what it feels like and i don’t think you’re depressed for no reason… i think you’re worn down from everything, and most of the time you self inflict your pain from the world onto yourself.
i probably don’t know exatly how you must have felt, but i go through a lot of shit in life and i live a shitty life for sure. one day i just couldn’t take everything in (the annoying pepole, the judgemental people, the asshole people) when i was at school,so i walked a long way home… in the pouring rain. i got home soaking wet and didn’t cry but just sat in one spot, doing nothing. i felt like i was depressed for no reason and i couldn’t stop sitting and staring blankly.
I used to cut myself until my parents found out and threatened to send me to a mental institution. I used to hit myself until peple questioned my bruises too often. I used to talk to my friends, but my parents don’t let me do that anymore or I’ll get kicked out of the house.
I wish we could do something to relieve the pain, but I’m glad I can still blog, and I’m glad that that’s what you did.
