Do you feel comfortable with this stage of life that you were talking about ?
Or are you willing to work for a higher quality of life ?
Depression is a state where one cannot come to terms between the projected self and the reality one is in.
I do not know if you are in a depression, because there is no definate term for 'depression'. However I believe there are others who may share similar situation with you. You may want to find these people and share about it?
You can also consult more experienced people you trust and ask for their advice or comments.
It is good you acknowledge you have an issue at the moment. It is far better than people who deny they are having problems. You are one step closer to solving your problems.
=D

In regards to what actually happened. I'm too ashamed to even mention it. Tried not to think about it but it just struck back like a gust of wind. Catching you unaware.
Most of my days are spent in a daze these days.
It is easy to say not to think about it. Sometimes i am okay while sometime like last night i was like wandering around the street at night till i felt the need to eat as i had not eaten for the whole day. life seems miserable and meaningless. but not to worry, i won't do anything stupid.
Anyway, it also led me to see how supportive my friends are and most of the members here are.
And Ceecookie, one can never imagine the feeling even if he or she tried to... Being in it is so different. I never intended to post that whole batch of blunt msg. I guess i am trying to up my post counts after the change of the forum look and wasn't putting much in the thinking and phrasing of those msg. Who doesn't do it anyway. Just that i did it for one whole period of time...
Its ok.There's no need to apologise till the end of the world.People always make mistakes - its life.
Ok Caleb , it's ok la , everything in your control , i am getting out of here , someone here seemed to be more depressing than u .
U do take care .
U can la , u're poly student , u're good enough to handle this sort of situation , unless u're some sort like that kind of moron around this forum ..... u're certainly gone case .
I dun see a case like that .... u have been too stress that's all .
Tat's more stressful people out there , who can manage depression , u can , let's do it .
Unless u think like one moron here . U're certainly gone case .
U know tat song : " Don't worry be happy " ?

Many pple drop out before O levels lor and didnt even have the chance to study in a tertiary institution.
Depend on individual. Yes, I also feel depressed going into the class of 25 everyday.
I'm a passive learner by the way, but RP empolyed Active learning method~
go get laid, its a good cure for depression but personally, i am more of a violent person.
after slicing up the 100th person with a combat knife in counter strike (a pc game) i do not feel depress anymore.
if you have a good/girl/boy friend, go have a chat with them as companionship can also make you feel less depress.
most of the time. depression are caused by lonelyness. find something to do that makes you feel less lonely
