I’ve struggled with depression for a major proportion of my life and only in the past 2 years I’ve began to think about ending my life. I have no friends and the family that I have won’t take anything I say seriously, I have nobody to turn to when I’m alone so I usually spend my time lay in bed, thinking about how I would end it if only I had the courage. What can I do when I have nowhere to go?
I need help.

I don’t think killing yourself is going to make you many friends either.
Just sitting and thinking can be a very powerful tool for understanding yourself. Try reassessing your situation rather than brooding over it.
As for family, they find it very hard to see a real problem when it is there. Ignorance is bliss, as they say (But knowledge is liberating, as i say). You could try sitting down and having a proper serious talk with them, and if that doesn’t work there are always plenty of people online willing to listen. Hell, even talking with yourself is better than holding it all in your mind.
If you need help then find it. Call the samaritans they will help.
JackG, when you have nowhere to go, you’re welcome here. This is the place where a lot of people will listen and know what you’re talking about and how you’re feeling.
Wishing you the best,
