Depression in College

I'm in college.

I currently have depression.

It is ruining my life. I am becoming utterly consumed by it and it is ruining my relationships with the people I love and it is beginning to ruin my education and possible future career. I am tired of fighting. I just want to sleep for a very long time. I have entertained the thought of killing myself but there's no point in suicide because it won't solve anything.

I am so tired of this. I just want to be happy again. And I don't know how. How do I make all these bad feelings go away?

I know how you feel. Trying to manage mental health and studies can be incredibly difficult, especially since when one starts to suffer it can start a vicious cycle. Thank you for bringing this here and providing a space for others struggling to see that they are not alone.
Wishing you the best in your health and studies.
