I feel numb. Depressed.
It's been two years now that I've been keeping it all inside my head but I think I've reached my limits.
I'm a first year MBBS student and I suffer from depression. I've always tried to fake around society and keep that "I'm fine I'm happy" mask on but now I need help. I don't wanna talk to my family or friends and life seems to go nowhere and nothing motivates anymore. I feel like sleeping all day, not because I want to, but because being awake is no good.
Hello,
Dear budding doctor, if you think you need help, please go for it.
The symptoms that you have described above are suggestive of an ongoing depressive episode. Depression is a treatable medical illness, and taking treatment can help you relive your symptoms. A combination of mediation and psychotherapy is generally recommended for depression. Please do not hesitate or delay in seeking professional help from a psychiatrist.
Hope this helps you. Best wishes for your health and future.
