After losing an important person (break up, which I don’t want to talk about here), I’ve been suffering from significant depression. I used to have depression since when I was young but not severe as ever before. I’m 27 years old male and I’m still a college student. A big problem is I can’t concentrate whenever I try to study because of my depression. Okay yes… I thought I was making excuse for not studying,,, but then after watching a document about depression, I’ve realized, I’m currently having a severe depression right now. I often feel sad, worthless, guilt, lonely and sometimes, I cry alone in my room. I’m an introverted person. So it’s really hard for me to talk out & reach out people, or making new friends. Yes I tried hard, I’ve tried to go out often even though I didn’t feel like to go out, meeting some old friends& make some new, went to bars… but then it didn’t take me long time to realize, I was just faking…and it was not true myself. I was always a quite person and I like it that way. Basically NO matter what you say… I don’t want to talk about my weaknesses. Yeah, I use to see a doctor and I’d been through all different kinds of anti-depressants (Paxil, Zoloft, Lexapro, EffxorXR, and Wellburtrin even otc 5htp.. various herbs..Etc) those didn’t work for me, either gave a bad headache, or did not work at all or made me drowsy through whole day…which is bad for a college student. Any practicing psychologist/ or psychology student here? Could you give me some advice?
