I have severe depression. I’ve had depression for about a year now, but this summer it’s gone through the roof. I’ve lost who I am. I don’t enjoy doing anything, and it’s hard for me to do basic tasks. Eg: usually every summer I love to pure my room at least twice, but this summer I just couldn’t, I tried today but I just can’t somehow. It feel like a have a pit in my heart. I have some wonderful friends, and when I’m with the right ones I’m lifted out of that hole. But I have one friend who I’ve surrounded myself by, but a lot of the time she enlarges that hole in my chest. I tried to tell her once, but she said “no, I’m sorry, but I don’t believe you have depression.” I don’t know what to do. I told my mom, but she doesn’t seem too concerned, but I think she will eventually get me an appointment with a therapist. I just don’t know what to do in the meantime. Any advice?
