I am feeling so lonely nowdays, scared too and my chest feels like tearing apart. I am feeling painful but not because of any physical pain. I desperately am looking for a way out but there is none to be seen. I want to cry even tears are in my eyes but can't as i don't want my or sister to see. Why i had to be strong every difficult time, i want to run away from this responsibility but can't or won't as there is no one to take them after me. I want a way out like a free bird. I want to die. everytime a good news seems to be coming then something very bad comes before it and dooms me. I don't ask for happiness just plain nor happiness or sadness.Bills scares me and I was happy two days ago then again the harsh reality came and doomed me. i can't sleep with this tension. today i lied to mom that everthing will settled when i know it can't be. what to do? where to hide? god please take me away from my misery

Hello dear friend Akan. I read your message twice. I do understand you are going through a difficult time. I have sympathy for you.
Don't worry. This will not last forever. I see it as a transit period in a life time.
My suggestion would be, try to identify the causes, and define ways to solve them. Be confident, you will surely find the solutions.
Best wishes to you dear friend Akan.

first of all keeping it to yourself is what is making you ill,
who said you have to be so strong that you cannot be human and have human emotions.
You need to talk about these things, and if you don't want to talk to your family and friends, you need to get help professionally, you need to get therapy.

Dear i can't talk to mom otherwise she will get tensed and making my old mom tensed because of me being a failure in life is something i can not even think of.She has done a lot for us.When my dad left us without any support , yes no divorce either and even mom's family abandoned her even then she raised both of us alone.If she would have wanted then she could have left in adoption centre ( which one of her friend suggested) and started her own life again and could have got married.My mom was very beautiful and young then but she raised us without even thinking about herself. She have sacrificed so much. I don't have the gut to make her tensed. Nowdays ladies get remarried without thinking how their child would be treated by their step dad as living alone for their children is not possible for them but my mom sacrificed her life. I don't have true friends and now mylot looks like a second home to me. Its the place where i can get all my emotions out. As for therapist. Sorry they are very expensive and i can't afford them. If i had money then this problem would have not arisen dear.

We all have those moments. Some more than others, but they occur nonetheless. Something that you may want to try is to do something that makes you happy. Whether it's reading, skiing, swimming, watching a moment, going to shop, hang out with friends ... whatever it is, go out and do it, ever if you're feeling too low to do it.

What you would need is a place to get away, a corner of your own where to be able to breathe. I know this kind of loneliness mixed with depression, I had it too a long time ago and only G-d knows how hard I fought it, and I can tell you IT IS SERIOUS! I can try and help You get out of it (and I would really want to help for as much as I can). Please pm me.

you are like millions of others, with things going these days, are hard. people are finding themself in a place they never thought they would be. and its hard.
specaily when something good happens then something bad happens. you got to be strong, and don't feel bad to tell someone who's close to you. talk that person either your sister or mom. talking about things is often the best thing to do.
but these days depressiom is sitting in with many, if you need to go and talk to your doctor
best of luck

I think everyone feels that at one point in their life. I think you should go tell it to the people closest to you since they're the only ones who could help you.

I think you need to leave your surroundings for a while. A vacation seems to be in need. Since you work via the web, you can just take your laptop w/ you I like do & work anywhere. When I talked to you today on Skype I think you asked if I travel alot.
I do it so I do not get depressed like I used to. Drastic changes in scenery always seems to calm my nerves & bring happiness back into my life. Like when I told you went to Thailand, ran out of money when I was there & worked to get home. When I got home I was fine for a while until I got depressed again. If it is your surroundings then you must leave them for a while. After you have left for a good amount of time, you will want to go back to them.
I don't know if this advice helps, but it works for me.

What you should maybe do is. Open up an ebay account & start selling your stuff. This is a great way to start as you own the items already & that can be your starting stock. Thats how I got into ebay. Before I was doing real well with the investing I had some money issues so I opened up an ebay account & started selling all my stuff that I was not too attached to.
What you would want to do is go to the ebay USA home page & open an account from there. The reason is because you would be then selling your items being paid in the USD & not INR. When clients pay in USD or in any currency for that matter paypal will automaticly convert it to INR for you. So you will be making double, triple or even more than that + you will be hitting a broader range of people. Also ethnic based items & items not available to other countries, but readily available to you in your country sell really well!
You can even try & sell foods that will not spoil in shipping. Some of the things I have sold & sell on ebay I find for free in the garbage. Seriously, lol.
Let me know how this sounds to you.

What specifically is your problem?
The only way to solve your depression is to write down each and every item that cause it. Then one by one discuss it with somebody you may trust.
Always remeber that for every problem there is a solution. Though some solutions may come very complex.
If you want I can help you figure it out and wew could possibly solve some of them.
Just send me a message and I'll be willing to help you out.
