How do i deal with my depression, stress, and health issues?
My name is Aaron and i just turned 18 and i’m currently a senior in highschool…ok this may seem like my life story but these are all of my issues i have to deal with:
Last year around december i suddenly got sick with hives that have stuck with me for a whole year now. The Hives feel like my whole entire body is on fire and at one point i couldnt move an inch out my chair at home for a whole day so i wouldnt be in pain. Because of this illness i missed a whole entire semister of school so i lost all of friends as a result of this. I missed 6 months of school plus i couldn’t go outside for 2 more months and by the time school started i was well enough to go to school. Now after i had been at home through december of 08 to august of 09 i finally got to go to school but now alot is at stake for me, my father lost his job and he hasn’t looked for one for 6 months while he drinks himself to death, i had to pass all of my classes in order to graduate because i am a senior in high school. During this time between late august and right now i have been working my ass off in school while dealing with my dysfunctional family. Also during this time i had realized that i no longer have any friends all of them graduated and moved on with their lives, the others are in their other groups of friends having fun and some forgot who i was and some thought i was dead. So now i’m alone with no friends to hangout with, i no longer have a social life and i’ve never had a love life. I’m the shy type of guy so its kinda hard for me to reach out to others and i love the people i meet at school but i’m unable to show them how i feel. its not like i’m unattractive because i’m not but i just can’t socialize. i’m also sick still and i have to worry everyday about being engulfed in these painful hives. And to add to this i’m in danger or are failing in all of my classes and dealing with an illness that has controlled my life while having no one to talk to, not even my family, who are always argueing or coming home drunk throwing up in the bathroom. i’ve always been the outcast in my family and everywhere i have ever been. i’m the youngest and i am my mothers second child from a second husband. My mother and my father hate each other with a passion but only stayed together because they needed each other financially and because i was born. So whenever i do something wrong my mother says i’m just like my father. My father is the alcoholic who is killing himself with his drinking and iswasteing away at the savings with his liquor as we speak. All my life i have tried so hard to make sure i wouldn’t end up like my parents and my half-brother, who dropped out of high school and currently lives at the same house for ten years after dropping out like a moocher, but they always put me down or treat me without a shred of respect. I cant even live my life without being disrespected by them treated like whatever i say is stupid. i am not even allowed to have my own room and since my mom and dad hate each other they have separate rooms and for my whole life i have been forced to sleep in the same room with my mother (different beds btw) I am not like most teens my age i dont go out smoking weed and going on drinking binges and all that shit i’ve always tryed to make something of myself i’ve always resisted temptation so i can get out of this miserable condition i live in and there has always been something in my way. Everything was finally going fine last year, i was so damn close to achieving all that i wanted to do to make something of myself but my illness hit me right when i had an opportunity to be an intern at my local radio station with broadcast journalists, my dream job being the sports dude.But having my dreams dashed because of my illness devastated me and now the internship is unavailable and never will be able until i finish college, if i can actually get into one. With all this stress and disappointment i had no friends to talk to. i have had no one to talk to period. When it was my birthday ,on november 29, i looked on facebook continuously for a couple days to see if anyone would say happy b-day or some kind of recognition that i am alive and the only people that said it were only friends i found online who i will never meet in real life. I have become very depressed and suicidal at times with no one to talk to. no friends to make me feel better. no love life. I feel as though my life has no meaning anymore. The only thing that would calm me down would be long walks at night because i would look at the moon and feel better. Having all of the disappointment and reaching rock bottom is killing me slowly and the stress doesn’t help either. the stress to finish high school and have a normal social life and a normal life in general and failing to do so. I dont know what to do now i feel helpless. I need some advice on what i should do at this point. so are there any suggestions?
Hey Aaron.
As someone who has ADD (and had consequently had depression) that went undiagnosed until the middle of my college career, I feel like I can relate to a lot of the things that you mentioned (although we’re clearly not in the same exact boat). I haven’t always been shy, but did get to be more so around the time I hit adolescence, and likewise had trouble reaching out to people and developing friendships. Furthermore, as a result of my psychological situation, it became a real challenge for me to achieve in the classroom beginning in middle school, but especially once I got into high school. So, I can totally empathize with a number of the things that you’re going through.
The fact of the matter is - although it seems like some of my problems are more biological whereas yours seem to be largely circumstantial - the thing that ultimately did it for me was therapy, as well as some psychiatric medications in my case (e.g. Paxil, Vyvanse). Now, depending on your situation, it may not be entirely possible for you to see a therapist, although I would encourage you to do so if you can. More importantly, I would suggest that you find some source of advice/counsel from an adult who is willing to listen and support you in your challenges.
It sounds like you’re right on track in terms of your outlook on school and where you want to be in life. Furthermore, the fact that you recognize and can relate the problems that you’re going through bodes well for your being able to resolve them, hopefully in the near future.
While I can’t give you a foolproof answer to your social situation, I would encourage you to put yourself in casual settings where you’re around other people (i.e. outside of the classroom). There are a lot of ways to do this, including joining a club (at school, church, etc.), going to the gym, volunteering, or getting a job where you’d be able to interact with new people on a regular basis. Also, make sure you take care of yourself in other aspects of your life. Try to eat healthy, work out, get plenty of sleep, keep yourself mentally sharp, and stay in touch with your spiritual side (if you’re given to that).
Please realize that you’re not the only person who’s struggling with the kinds of issues that you’re facing at this time in your life. Also - at the risk of presenting myself as being another one of your online friends… do feel free to contact me if you’d like to talk about anything… It’s mikefolds54@yahoo.com.
So, best of luck, and just keep pushing. You’d be surprised how far your goals and sheer determination will get you in life.

Sounds like you’re dealing with quite a bit. Unfortunately, sometimes, our parents are not the model ones and they end up saying and doing things that hurt us. The best way to handle that is to accept them for who they are, what they say and do. Once you have accepted them (because you certainly can’t change them), they will be easier to deal with. (In other words, ignore them. Fighting will get you nowhere.) If you mother knows she can hurt you by what she says, then she’ll do it all the more. Gently walk away. I would also go see your doctor and tell him what’s going on. He will be able to help you with your depression. There’s a slew of antidepressants out there that he little or no side effects. I take Effexor for depression and social anxiety and absolutely love it. There are no side effects, I can take it in the morning and it works during the day. It’s also weight neutral - no loss, no gain. The situation you are in will not change without medicine intervention. You might want to see a therapist also about the anger issues that you have. God bless you.

My best advice is to not give up.
i know what your going thru, i have hallucinations and i miss a lot of school because of it. and my social life? down the drain. i’m a sophomore repeat. and its hard for me to keep up with my friends when they are so ahead of me. so they leave me out too.
but life IS worth living. i know it may seem impossible now, but there is always a calm after the storm. don’t give up yet, you have too much ahead of you.
i know you need a friend to talk to and share your problems, so here, e-mail me at emosoul110@gmail.com and we can be pen pals or something!
just know that there are people out there who care, and i’m one of them.
best of luck, i’m here if you need me,
Tien
p.s. happy belated birthday!
