Depressions?

Before corona and also april may i was very confident. Since June this has changed a lot. I'm only at home now. Watch Netflix 24/7 and last went to school 3 weeks ago. I always start to cry for no reason and I just don't feel well anymore. My only motivation not to kill myself is that next year I will change schools and go to boarding school. But as I said, that's a very long way off. I just feel totally weak and unmotivated. Do you have any ideas on how I could get myself up again? I want to change my life. I want to start over. How do I do it?

For what is good for you, what you like. Do your hobbies, meet up with friends and talk about it. Treat yourself to a day of relaxation.

Find a hobby, do sports or something similar. You need a meaningful occupation and distraction.

Problem: I have no hobby. I don't know what I can do in my spare time except watch Netflix.
I have already explained that with friends in another question. And relaxation doesn't help me. I tried to do a day like that. The next day I still feel weak.

Almost everyone has depressive phases in life, so you are not alone. I would recommend you to start with sport, that pulls you out of such a hole pretty quickly. However, this can also be a real depression, you really have to be careful. So if the whole thing doesn't go away, go to the doctor.

It's actually been like since I moved into my brother's room. He had depression and scratched himself. Could that be connected somehow?

Depression is sometimes inheritable. This then depends on a metabolic deficiency in the brain. I believe. In that case, you should definitely go to the doctor, because then the depression will never go away.

I was with a therapist for another reason in January. Do you think I could go there again?

I can't do anything with my father and I can't talk to my mother. I just don't know how to make new ones. And then you can't do anything corona

Sure, of course! That's what these are for. Depression is not about feeling bad, it is a serious illness! However, there are also depressive phases, but these should not be underestimated, because this often leads to depression. And just because your brother is / was depressed, I would go there.

Maybe you go to a trust teacher or something?! Or do something on your cell phone, use it to make contact and video chat?!

Unfortunately, that's the way it is for many at the moment. Therefore it is important that we return to normal soon. If mom thinks that there has to be a vaccine first… Then I also get depression and anxiety.

I can't explain it any other way than that it is wanted (my personal opinion, contrary views are welcome).

You have to pull yourself together. Go showering every day, go outside for 30 minutes every day (ideally right now), clean every day and learn at least 2x20 minutes a day and meditate for 15 minutes, talk to your neighbors or parents or to grandpa and grandma. Find out more outside of ard, zdf and mdr. You need some discipline to do this, don't become an 'animal'. Keep your dignity and pride. You can watch flatnix but set a limit of 2 to 3 hours.

Do not let yourself go like this, man is not made to be so much alone and to look at colorful pictures. Keep your dignity.
