Five years ago I got sick.
Five years I have been fighting alone with my illness, five looooong years I have been alone with it because  I CHOSE so. Why? I really don't know why, maybe it was because I have seen what the same illness can do to bystander who tries to help and be the voice of reason.  After all.. I am sick because I am one.

depression

[infinite_verse]

i'm not a doctor of any kind, but depression tends to affect generations in my family.

the first thing you need to do is to stop pushing everyone away and let poeple into you life. its not easy. its downright out of this world hard, but you need your family and close understanding friends. give them the opportunity to be there for you.
also don't stay in the house. get up and go outside. go to the park, take long walks. you dont have to talk to anyone, just get up and get out for a few hours. our mind is our prison because our house is our physical prison to a depressed person.isolation from others is also another prison.
remove one prison at a time. try not to wallow in disappointment.
always look for the silver linning no matter how small or insignificant.

hope this was helpful.
