Awww Buddy. Even I like you, most of the time that is.

My first piece of advice is exactly what MD said. Treat other people as you would like to be treated. No matter how shitty things get just keep positive and treat people with respect. That way you will get the same in return. That's a general rule in life, if you give positive vibes, they'll come back in your favour.

My other advice is mostly pharmacutical. I suggest a good diet. Less junk food, more green veggies. Either raw or steamed. They are full of vitamin B which helps your blood flow, and supplements your brain, reducing symptoms of depression. B vitamins are destroyed by excessive use of caffeine and alcohol so taking supplemets may help in that area. Vitamin B-12 is especially important for men to take. I can't promise anything though, 'cause you might be clinically depressed, and you would then need actual meds. I just thing the vitamins might be a good place to start if you're worried about money and insurance.

I get seasonal depression in the winter or when it's consistently rainy. It's from a lack of sunshine. So I take vitamin D on bad weather days to supplement that. Don't know if that's an issue for you though cause you said it's warm out.

uhh, hope I helped a little.

O.K. dude, I know you and I have never really got along...but here it is...life is series of kicks to the nuts....get a cup. I have a few friends that have been down the road that you're currently on, and like many people here said, Antidepressant Meds like Xanax, Paxil, exc. will definitely help. I'm not telling you to stop fucking, drinking, or toking...because what works for me...doesn't mean it will work for everybody.
Just take a deep breath....and for the time being ... worry about yourself and no one else...and remember...nobody is guaranteed tomorrow. :cool:

Why don't you move, a fresh start can really change things, new people new enviroment.

I moved 12 hours away from where I grew up when I was 17, I pushed a lot of shit behind me that I just didn't need, it gave me the chance to find myself. I recomend it, don't worry about money or doing it hard for a while in a new place, just take it on, it's good for your character and self esteam.

I would only look at medication as a last resort. Try and take life by the balls first.

I don't know if they would help, but from what I can gather, don't rely on the meds. They should only be an aid. Do most of the work yourself, or you'll end up relying on them.

Everyone, thanks for the advice, and the support. It is nice that I don't have to deal with this stuff from all sides. I'm definatly going to take a long break from drinking, starting now. I was a little dumb last night and got really really drunk. I don't think it was all because I was depressed, though we had a party last night at my house, and normally I'm all for it, but I spent most of it by myself on the dark part of my porch, until this girl who's a close friend of mine(my best friends fiance) came over, sat down next to me, and we talked about the shit I was going through, shes one of the three people I can talk to about myself. She made me feel alot better last night, so I returned to everybody and we played asshole, and I got hammered. After that I don't remember much but I'm told I went to bed at about 3 in the morning. I'm paying for it, so i'm not going to drink for a while. but when I woke up this morning all those feelings came rushing back at me and I felt like shit again. Alchohol really isn't a way to cope, I know that now especially. its killing my head to look at the screeen so i'm gonna cut it short.
I'm gonna look into the B vitamins, and I know I gotta stop being so down on myself,but its easier to say that than to do it. Chrono I'm going to try that "think about other stuff" thing. I don't know if I can change my diet that well right now, because I don't have alot of money right now. But I will look into that.

But once again thank you guys so much, its easier to know that at least somebody is on my side, and I got a bunch of somebodies. Thank you.


P.s. V, I'm pretty sure your not telling me to hange myself, because that would be fucked. But i'm not sure what the quote means. But thankyou for the support.

I think it means there are people that stick their necks out, and people that put the nooses around them? I dunno, i layed back down in bed and thought about that before I passed out. thats really my best answer. Though.... its not really a question.

Now, I'm still young and I lived a fairly easy life so far, but here is the best advice that I can give anyone:

Laugh.

Laugh often and laugh loudly. The world is a pointless, absurd, cruel place, and there really isn't much you can do about it. So just look at it like a big old joke, and try to laugh at everything that's coming down on you.

Also...if you can listen to this song and still be as upset as you were in the first place, you've got some serious problems ;) :
