...See more I'm struggling my way to the end of each day and I'm getting to the point where I'm feeling like this is the end of my life - everything beyond now seems pointless and hopeless. I don't know if I want to live for the people and activities I love, and the things that normally make me happy don't work anymore and I no verbal, creative, or active outlet to let it out. I used to write it out, but it's lost its effect. I started drawing it out, but it's starting to irritate me and make it all worse when I can't do it. I can't even leave the house and go for a walk just to get away because of the people on my house. I have nowhere else to turn and it feels like life isn't giving me another way out of this. I've considered therapy, but I have no way to do that without my parents finding out (which is the worst outcome at the moment) and I don't think I'd feel comfortable with it. I want help, but at the same time I'm terrified of talking to someone I've never spoken to before, but the people in my life either don't want to help, or will make things worse. I don't want to live with this anymore. What else can I do?
Reasons to stay alive when you feel hopeless?

...See more I've lost all hope and I feel constantly filled with nothing. I have plenty of things that most people would think I'd stay alive for - but the more I think about it all, the more pointless it all seems. I feel like every happy moment will end and throw me back into sadness, and happiness never lasts when you need it to. I'm constantly conflicted between wanting to live for the things I come close to loving, but at the same time I just don't see why it'll make any difference when it comes down to my last moments of life when the pain stops, whether that be in decades time or sooner. I don't want to feel like this, but is there a way to get out of it?
Is my depression going to push everyone away from me?

...See more I'm currently suffering with depression and I'm recently moving away from being suicidal, despite the depression getting worse. I'm very open about it, trying to reach out to the people around me for help, but it's become apparent that those people don't actually want to help. I'm worried that the people around me are going to be pushed away from me or if they're pushing me away because of it. I understand it's hard to deal with someone who's depressed, but it's not easy to pretend it's not there either. I don't know if I want therapy or counselling since that would make my parent aware of it, and my situation could get worse if I tell them. I tried to do online counselling, but I always get too scared in the end. Should I just try to look happy instead? What should I do? I don't want to lose them.
