I am so depressed,anxious & withdrawn,I feel it will kill me.
I am so depressed & have become socially isolated. I never go anywhere or talk to anyone. I have severe anxiety & don't want anyone to see me. I have not thought of suicide but I can't see a way out of this.Every day I think of how I will cope with the next day & the next week.I just lay on my bed all day.I have to make an effort to get up before my son comes home from school.He is aware of how I am.He said he thinks all this stress will overwhelm me so much that one day I just won't wake up.He is only 13 & I know how much this hurts him.I want him to be happy.I think that one day this will kill me as it is getting worse every day.Please someone help me.
Nadiarox, I'm touched by your plea. It is terrible to know that you are not living life as you'd wish and yet unable to change it. This could go on unless you try to change it through your efforts.
You don't mention having seen a doctor or therapist. Are you adverse to drugs? Other substances? There is help out there, and as far as not wanting to be seen by others, a lot of them probably feel the same way, so, you may as well go out too.
The Community Leader here has written quite a few articles. Two in particular,
"I Don't Want To Get Up..., Part One" and
"How To Get Motivated and Moving..., Part Two", are very worth reading.
She also wrote several about being an Introvert, it's not always a bad thing.
There is no minimizing your condition; I know it well. But try to seek professional help, even enlist a friend or relative who is familar with your depression and anxiety to help make appointments and take you. You have to start for your sake and your son's. I'm sure everyone here wishes you well.

Hi there
I am so sorry you are feeling this way. Do you have any supports in the way of family or friends to talk to? Are you seeing a therapist or counselor? I would strongly recommend that you get in touch with your local mental health center. Or you could call your general practitioner for him or her to recommend someone.
I am going to give you some telephone numbers just in case of the event that you are feeling so low that you do not know what else to do.
These are suicide hotline numbers and while they are not a long term solution the people there can help you get through the worst of this if you need them. They can also hook you up with a counselor in your local area.
Here are those numbers:
1-800-273-TALK (8255)
1800-784-2433
1800-799-4889
Keep reaching out here and do hang in there. I am hoping that things will get better for you soon.

I know how you feel My self speaking I spent five years in a hole a dark depressing hole with no way out but I still had things I had to do so I did get up but when I was up no one would like to be around me If I sensed They would say something I would go off on them and fight them
Bottom line get some sunshine and Know that there is more to life And better times around the corner
