Talk to your parents or friends. Dont be scared and talk to somebody. Force yourself to start some activities. It will eventually get better, but not overnight. Maybe adopot some sport? Endorphines and adrenaline helps with this too.

Try to talk to professional too.

Do not pretend that nothing is wrong. Cry if you must. Talk to somebody about your problems.

Cheers.

I used to work out regularly & have hobbies. The thing is, I can't seem to bring myself to do it again for a sustained period of time. I end up giving up in the end.

I did try to talk, and it brought me some relief. But seeing a professional seems overblown and would make life hell with my family.

Add a stressful job to your life. Im talking like elderly care or working at a daycare. That stress eases depression.

Laziness is a result of depression but heres the thing. You may feel and be depressed, but acting out on it and playing into the role of a depressed person will make you suffer a lot more. Do your schoolwork

>overblown
How much longer do you have to suffer before you consider that visiting proffessional will be appropriate?

>life hell with my family
Maybe your shitty family and upbringing is cause of all this.

FORCE yourself to do the activities, make schedule and obey it no matter what. Talk to your parents/friends about how dead inside you feel.

School is stressful enough, thanks, even though I remain a lazy cunt. I'm at a special binational type of school, x2 the workload of usual schools during "senior" (last) year, huge tests in the last year.

My family's good, nice folks, it's just that my dad is a military-minded type who'll beat discipline inside me if he needs to. He'd probably cut off my access to the PC even though it's my only source of escapism. And to his eyes I'll be even more of a failure.

I may seem complacent when I say things like this, but I've already tried to get better. During Christmas, during February. I did a little but then fell back into this mood. It's gotten to the point I can't seem to help it. I wake up and my only goal is to sleep again. On my PC, I used to play RPGs & that type of stuff. Now I only do low-energy activities even there like 4chan or reading the news.

Fuck I wish I could take a pill & wake up happy for once, and forgot the past seven months altogether.

maybe seeking a professional and /or taking antidepressiva would be a good idea. beeing depressed is also a medical condition in your brain which can be therapated with drugs..

Yeah but my trouble is I don't know if I'm depressed...I don't have any real reason to be & sometimes I don't feel as sad as other times.

When your dad is the scary boss, use your mom or siblings or granparents to talk to. Tell them ALL your troubles, maybe ask them if they can you make you join some of their activities so you dont die alone in your room.

>i dont know if im depressed
Only sad people come here and make such threads. You evidently are too young to solve this problem alone. Dont be ashamed of reaching for help. I bet even your dad would rather have his son come to him for help than you to drop from school and kys years after from total apathy.

TALK TO SOMEBODY. Cry, yell, show your fucking emotions! You are human being, not robot.

>You are human being, not robot.

I won't say I'm socially inept but I don't know how to handle people. I'm at my best when I am alone in my room. But for this reason I lack friends.

I was always this way. So I do wonder why all of a sudden that sadness kicks in.

It looks like you'll just have to get over that bitch desu senpai.

You're probably feeling worse because you quit exercising.

You should force yourself to lift some weights, and inform your parents as to how you feel.

If you're a teenager, your face is still growing and developing. If you're ugly when you're 14, you can be handsome when you're 20.

Same with when you're 16. It even keeps going when you're 18.

I specifically mention weight lifting because it produces dopamine in the brain.

When you stop weight lifting, you can easily fall into a depression.

I recommend you learn to discipline yourself. No one cares more about your life than you. No one will make you happy aside from yourself. This is why you must force yourself to do things for yourself.

If you give up on weight-lifting, a dopamine producer, you're signing up for negative emotions. Keep that in mind the next time you quit.
