So I'm back.

So I haven't written in almost a month. It's been a rather rough month, for lots of reasons

I understand more than you can imagine. I've had the same problem with depression, and nothing helps. I've taken medication for it off and on for the past couple of years, and even that doesn't help. It generally makes me kinda bitchy toward certain people, I have little patience with everything, and I'm virtually unable to do any kind of school work. Like you, this cycle (lasting most of this semester) has been the worse since I was in middle school. I think I'm coming out of it now that the end is in sight (providing I pass that stupid east asia course). Is it easy for you to turn to people for help during these cycles? It isn't for me. If it is for you, I hope you can do it to get the support system you need during the next one. And keep reminding yourself - they are cycles. They are bound to end. If it seems like one is not ending or at least lightening, then it might be good to see a counselor. Drinking does help, and could lead to a dependency (it's why I don't drink when I'm depressed - alcoholism runs in my family, and I want to avoid it when I'm depressed). Same for drugs. I hope you don't mind me asking,but have you ever been medically treated for it? Personally, I hate it when I am, but I know it's a pride thing on my account. If you haven't it might help. I'm not going to push it on you, since I know for myself I hate (certain) people asking me about it and I'll hate myself for being on it.

Let's do something together, maybe while working on our presentation for east asia. Sometime the week after next (after the 30th)?

Hang in there. I'm glad you are coming out of it. There's nothing better in the world than knowing you got through depression. Hold on to the feeling and cherish it. Hopefully remembering that feeling will help you next time.
