Living with SNHL not an easy sontin. Wasn't born with it, so can't adapt. No friends, difficulty conversing with people, no job, and people seem to treat me as inferior. Brilliant individual, good grades despite the challenge, still no job. Lots of opportunities staring me at the face but can't take advantage of them. Why? SNHL! Like Bleep Bleep grin

Was it cause by loud music?

alot of things make me depressed. I'm almost 19 and I'm always worried about my health. I've been having migraines since I was 7 the worst one happened last year a migraine lasted for 2 months. Another problem now is I have visual snow which makes me see afterimages all the time. I also have double vision and I also have tinnitus. I have scoliosis and no one has had it in the history of my family and sometimes my family makes it seem like I did it to myself on purpose. I'm about to take jamb for the 5th time though I've never failed just always been rejected. I am battling an addiction with porn and masturbation. I've been using porn since I was 9 and started masturbation at 13 but today marks 90 days since I last did that. I also have anger management issues but my siblings make it worse. I don't think I'll be able to control it till I live alone. I used to be a very happy extroverted and intelligent child but now I'm very introverted although I'm getting better. I just wish I can live a normal life as a young person instead of constantly worrying about going blind or dropping Dead.

Your health issues are all in your head and mind.
You seem like a very emotional person who is also very meticulous.

MissSweet:
I sometimes feel depressed when I have few challenges like failed a course, feeling lonely and even bad relationship with girlfriends. But at the same time I learn from the experience.

Right Now I can say I can control my depression state. I have come to realized that any difficulties one passes through many has gone through it.

And lastly, I always prepare my mind ahead of any circumstances and believe it will get better.
Most people feel depressed, lonely, despised, unproductive or stagnant at certain points in life. I think it's part of the human psyche to question ourselves and subconsciously compare ourselves with others whom we think we should measure upto and when we fall below par, we sulk and a range of emotions overwhelm us.

I like your resolve it'll become better and you'll work and do what it takes to make it better.

Cheers

The fear of making mistakes constantly fill me especially in terms of marriage, I broke up with my fiancee because he was cheating n my family was on his side this really making me feel depressed most time

Hi

If a r/ship is getting you depressed before marriage do you think it'll change when you get married?
I might be wrong but I think that the thought of a fiancée should bring happiness and not misery.

I bet your family didn't know he cheated.

Learn to enjoy boredom.....
The fun is in the journey and not in the destination.
Sometimes boredom builds responsibility.

Where do i start from?

Dropped out of school at 500L due to bad grades.

And having to start again 8 years since my 1st admission.

Coping tho, but these constant thoughts of disappointment always come coupled with the fact that i am an introvert and i am so freaking lonely in school (no friend coupled with course mates calling uncle which makes me feel old and the feel that i wasted my youth life, should have graduated at 23 now i will at 28)

Enduring tho, and hoping to finish by '21 and also hopefully travel abroad finally after 2 visa rejections.
Even this too will pass away....
Don't be deterred, one day u'll look back and be happy and proud of urself.
Ur regrets will fade away into happiness.
As for loneliness, we can be friends.

Re: Come Share Your Biggest Problem, Challenge Or Source Of Depression! by Estellie: 1:19am On Feb 21, 2019
... I used to see depression as something alien to the strong. I thought I was strong and shouldn't be depressed.. Each day I'll sit down, thinking, crying, damn! it was terrible... I knew I was slowly slipping into depression, I told myself 'Hey!! remember you're strong..you can't be depressed. you're not depressed..you can't be.' I was lying to myself just to feel better, it didn't work though...

I became scared. I kept picturing suicide. I was scared of my thoughts cause mehnn I was going way too far... I checked my blood pressure and the result wasn't encouraging at all...The man who checked it was shocked sef cause he said I always look happy, bright, full of life and joy..what could be wrong?? What are you thinking about, small girl?

I realized I was destroying myself and my potentials so I decided to pick myself up and be strong as always. I read books, I played with little kids(that helped a lot), did few things I love doing, went out, embraced life.

My problem isn't solved yet and I can't say if I'm out of the whole depression stuff, but I feel a whole lot better, stronger and happier.

I know so many depressed people are viewing this thread, I also searched for a thread like this when I was down... I'm just gonna say that depression ain't the end of the world. It's owkay to feel sad and downcast sometimes buh refusing to stay down is what makes you stronger... Pick yourself up to stand tall... Life is like a big merry go round, you just have to take control of it.....
