First of all, the only reason people become depressed is because they become self-absorbed in their own problems. They only think about themselves. A form of conceit.

I'm sorry, but this comment really angered me. Depression IS A MENTAL ILLNESS. It is a disease. Yeah, there are some people who have a bad day, or a bad couple of days. But there is a difference between being upset and suffering from depression.

DO NOT call me self absorbed because I suffer from depression. You don't know anything about me. And it has nothing to do with my issues. I suffer from a chemical imbalance. So DO NOT call AlphaSigLana selfish and self absobred when you have no idea what her disease and her problems are.

AlphaSigLana, some very good advice has been given to you. Please, please, please see a professional about this. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Things can get better, you just need to find the right kind of help. Please keep searching, it is out there.

Take care of yourself.
