I don’t know what to do with my life. I often wake up crying. I take medicine for my depression. I went to thearapy a while back but it made me feel a lot worse. I don’t get to leave home often. Help?

Therapy is not always the best way to deal with what you're feeling. Talking to a friend is often seen as a better way to get through depression and crying yourself to sleep or waking up crying. Try explaining what you're feeling to a friend and if you feel like you have none 7 cups is always a safe space to come talk about what you feel. Personally, I don't think that medicine is the best option in this case since going to therapy made you feel even worse. If you feel like it you could plug your earphones and go outside for a walk or jog. In case there is a lockdown in your country like for example now that we have the corona virus, you could watch a good movie, or listen to good music. Just something to take your mind off of what is making you feel that way. A good book is an excellent escape from reality, same thing goes for art. Try drawing, try putting your feelings in a painting.

I have depression to so I know how it feels have you talked to your doctor they can probably help you. You shirt definitely tell them what’s going on and inform on how you feel. It’s really beinfical to get help and I’m really proud of you for taking that step. Although it’s a very difficult road you will eventually get through this and you will take this as an experience and grow from it. I also would think to interact with people more would be a good idea too since it makes you feel less lonely and upset.
