How to get through depression?
So i have been dealing with depression since last year and its been tough lately. I used to be pretty overweight. I used to get made fun of alot when i moved to a new school. I had some friends but i never felt really close. They would have parties but wouldnt invite me and do things like that. I used to crie alot in secret. I have never told anyone about this and i don tplan on. Over the summer and early schoolyear of my freshman year in highschool i grew to 5,7 and weighed 135 lbs. I work out alot and work hard. I met a girl that i really like, like never felt this way about anyone in my life. My friend took gher from me and he was aweful to her. They broke up, but then she went back to her old boyfriend. We had a special connection that i never had with any of my " girl" friends. It was the best until she got back with her x. Now i feel really bad about myself and feel fat and unattractive. I know this sounds stupid. Im trying to lose weight and i have been lifting more and more. I just feel aweful whenever i think about her. All i want is someone i can hold on to, and that sounds stupid but its true. People say im not ugly or fat but i still feel bad. What can i do?
May i have depression?

Why did my psychology professor react this way? (related to severe depression)?
Background info I skipped an exam and the professor told me to come see her in her office after class. I skipped it because I had not read a page in the textbook I actually hadn't even opened it. Going to class and barely doing the daily reflections were burdensome enough. When I was in her office, she asked me why I had skipped the exam. I was hesitant to tell her that in late September of last year, I was diagnosed with severe depression so it took a while for me to say it but I eventually did. I also told her that I was getting better and that I was on antidepressants. Somehow, the conversation progressed to the point that I said that I didn't feel that I should be here in college . She asked me why and I replied that I would hurt someone if I did. She then asked who I would hurt and I said my grandmother because she is so frail and if anyone in our family makes 'waves' she would worry so much, to the point that her blood pressure goes up dangerously high, and that she has elderly depression, so I'm worried that she might die because of me taking a gap semester. After hearing this, she replied, " So you feel trapped huh... are you assuming that you can't take a gap semester or did someone tell you?" And I said that my mother told me multiple times both last semester and this semester. Question Afterwards, she asked me if I think about ever hurting myself or others. I retorted " no no, I'm not that kind of girl" while shaking my head and swaying my hands slightly back and forth. She then looked at me with wide eyes and looked kind of surprised... why would she react in this way?? I was and am still so confused... extra info After she reacted like that, she said that she would be flexible I could not take the exam and have other subsequent assessments weigh more or take it at a later date, or substitute an essay for the exam. I also started crying at some point in our conversation, I don't recall when though.Thank you in advance for your input ..? How did my body language say something else? I was shaking my head no, waving my hands no. so I'm saying no no no. wouldn't that equal " no" ?
Please help! Is it just my anxiety/depression?
I may have depression since I've lost interest in the stuff I used to like, I'm disconnected from my emotions and the worst part is... it's making me lose feelings for my boyfriend. I've never felt this way before. I'm sure that I love my boyfriend with all my heart but ever since I lost the feeling of happiness, hopefulness and the like, things just haven't been feeling the same with him.But it's not just my boyfriend, sometimes when I don't think about him and instead I think about the things that aren't related to him, it still feels the same. The things I like doing like dancing and playing flag football don't feel the same anymore...It's like I completely forgot how to feel about anything And it's really starting to scare me... It's like I'm not myself...This all started when I freaked out and panicked about getting hemorrhoids.. I thought it was something deadly and 'serious' even if it wasn't .. it was the first time I experienced it and I totally felt humiliated that I had it, shocked and utterly scared. I was asking myself over and over again, " Why me?" And I was just so sad..I let my spirits drop. During that time, I realized I couldn't feel much for anything since I was just so tired to feel afraid and embarrassed... I freaked out even more when I couldn't feel anything for my boyfriend. We were watching TV and things just didn't feel the same all of a sudden... I cried the whole night once I discovered that I might have lost feelings for him because I really couldn't believe it. I love him so much, how can this be happening? I asked myself.. the next day, I didn't feel so well from crying the whole night. My eyes were swollen and I had a slight fever. My nose was clogged and I had a bad cold... I couldn't smell anything... that's how it started..I also feel like I'm living in a dream because I've never been un emotional AT ALL. It's like I don't remember how I used to feel...Sometimes I just worry even if I'm not thinking about anything, I just...worry and worry and there's a tightening in my chest because I know something is just...not right or missing... Even if I'm NOT thinking of my boyfriend, I still feel worried that something is wrong because I'm not feeling right. Which leads me to think that it's not our relationship that's the problem we were so PERFECT before this sh t started to happen and I'm so frustrated at myself People say I'm overthinking everything and I over analyze everything and I just need to calm down but I can't calm down because it's the LOVE OF MY LIFE I'm dealing with... I can't lose it. I can't lose him. Also, just recently... I can't seem to feel right when we become intimate. It's like it's so hard for me to concentrate on what I'm really feeling It's scaring the shizz out of me that I'm not feeling like myself... I know this isn't me When we do get intimate, my body feels it physically but emotionally... it's just blank... PLEASE HELP ME. I'm really scared... I don't want to lose him because of this I really want to gain my feelings back for him and to look forward to the things I used to look forward too. Please help me.. Will it ever come back? If I get better will I start loving and being happy again? Back to my normal self? I don't want to break up with him just because I can't feel anything it's so unfair .. It's hurting me so much... I can't believe it when I get near him it's like I'm so nervous because I don't feel anything and I hate it...I don't want to leave him because what if I become fine again after a while? What if this is actually all just a phase? Then at the end I would have just lost someone that made me the happiest person ever... I can't risk that. I can't... I would HATE to hurt him because of this because I care about him so much and all I want is for him to be happy. I'm so scared of losing him to whatever it is that I'm feeling right now And I want to be happy too... with him... please help me ' It's been at least 3 weeks..
Hallucinations and Depression?
I'm 16 and have been diagnosed with major depression. I have tried a few different antidepressants but all have made me experience mild manic symptoms and had to come off them again. One thing I have realized is I do experience hallucinations. I have experienced hallucinations on and off medication. They are very rare, and I've probably had only about 5 in my whole life. These hallucinations are always visual, such as seeing various lights and patterns, the ceiling falling down, letters on the wall, insects crawling all over me, faces and shadows and even decaying flesh on peoples faces. These only last a few minutes. I don't want to mention this to my psych as I don't want her to think I'm crazy or schizophrenic or something plus, I hardly ever get them and it's not like they're interfering with my health... so what should I do?
