    My mom says my depression is just mental and I can totally fix it myself, this makes me mad. I know it has something to do with my mind and the way I think but.. I get sudden outburts of happiness and sadness. Its not my fault, I cant really control it. I cry because I feel as if no one understands and can help me. Sometimes I just think dying is the only way to fix it. But I cant leave everything I have. Everything I will have. Its just, this problem overwhelms me, and its so bad sometimes I feel like I cant get control of my real self. Like I'm someone else. And my mom says its all mental. Please Post Comments =) thanx

    Well what do I say?! lol, I agree 100% with Britt and Sluvious. The only person who can really help you is yourself, but you have to WANT to get better before you can. Then you just need to find the strength in youself to get through it. I really hope it gets better for you,

    Im not sure about it being all mental, I think in a majority of cases yes it is, it becomes a state of mind inflicted internally by the sufferer.
    However I also believe its physical as in some cases its a chemical inbalance in sufferers not just a state of mind.
