Hi, Do understand your feelings. Relations and relationships are meant to have fights and peace, love and hatred, likes and dislikes and so on. Learn to treat both positive and negative comments in a better way. When not comfortable, try to avoid such conversations and move away from the place by giving some excuses. You need to start acting on your thoughts and feelings to have a peaceful mind.
Next Steps
Take professional assistance. They will help you to feel better.
Health Tips
(1) Love yourself and your life (2) Be with people who speaks neutral or good things (3) Focus on your goals and try to be productive

Thanks for reaching out for help. Discord and misunderstandings with people in our life can sometimes make us feel depressed and lead to negative feelings. However, every relationship in our life has a different dynamic that we need to figure out and understand. I understand when you say a fight plummets your mood into a gloomy one. This can be worked upon with psychotherapy or NLP based therapy.
Next Steps
You can take an online appointment with me or any counselling psychologist who can help you navigate this with clear understanding and without judgement. Talking to a professional trained to help alleviate such feelings and extreme thoughts will really benefit you.
Health Tips
Always tell yourself that feeling insulted and gloomy happens only when you let another person validate your existence. Only you have the key to validating your existence. Speak with a therapist who can help you deal with this negative energy that pulls you down. You will definitely feel positive soon.

Here are a few suggestions that could help you : Awareness of how the mind works and how thoughts are generated could help you overcome the challenges you are facing right now. The nature of the Mind, which in simple terms we experience as thoughts, is such that, it will keep shifting its focus from one object/topic/event to another. Ii always needs something to hold on to. Today the mind might be fixated on something. Tomorrow it could be another topic/event/person. Another important characteristic of the Mind is this - You may either have thoughts about the past or the future. This keeps alternating. Try thinking about the present moment - you will see that the Mind and 'Now' can never coexist. The Mind has 3 states in general. Sometimes, you may find yourself having very positive, inspiring thoughts. During other times, you may find yourself very emotional, or all charged for action. Whereas during other times, you may feel very lethargic, dull or lazy. These states keep alternating. Having understood the nature of the mind, the first step towards mental health is to become aware of your thoughts. Learning to be an observer of your thoughts, learning to observe them from a distance like clouds passing in the sky. Just like how the clothes you are wearing right now are yours, but not you, thoughts that you experience from time to time are yours, but not you. The next step is knowing that you have the power to choose which thought you wish to focus on and act on and exercising that power. With practice, you will have better mastery over this process. Having negative thoughts is something that plagues everybody from time to time. Trust me, even if everything was perfect, we may still find shortcomings somewhere and brood about it. When you repeatedly focus on a thought ( that springs from a belief that you have and which is threatening or disturbing by nature ) the corresponding emotion rises in your brain. It overpowers your capability to think rationally. The cycle repeats and you feel imprisoned by your own thoughts and emotions. As mentioned above, with practice, you will learn to focus and entertain only those thoughts are healthy enough to be acted upon. Usually when we experience disturbing thoughts, we may tend to fight, resist or control them. But fighting a thought is like fighting a shadow. You can see it, but it's not real. Fighting a thought or emotion only gives it more power. Say for instance, when someone asks you not to think of a pink elephant, the first thought that invariably comes to you is that of a pink elephant. Instead, what we can do is, learning to be a distant observer of thoughts ( that are only based on past experiences and hence are no longer true or relevant today or do not serve your highest good ) and not act on them. Whenever you feel overwhelmed by thoughts, just bring your focus back to your breath and take a few relaxing breaths. Here is a breathing exercise that could help you : You may do this in the night too once you have finished with your tasks for the day : Inhale slowly to a count of four - hold your breath to a count of four - exhale slowly to a count of eight. Repeat this ten times. You may do this also in the morning before you begin your daily routine. Gently massage the back of your neck and the base of the skull when you lie down to rest. Whatever you feed your mind through your sense organs will be replayed to you as thoughts. Be conscious of this. Take care of the content you feed your mind - the kind of books you read, the websites you visit, the kind of music you listen to, the kind of food you eat, the kind of company you keep ( "You are an average of five people you spend most of your time with" ) Our attitude towards life in general and things in particular is based on our Beliefs - what we believe to be true about ourselves and the world. What are your core beliefs about yourself and the world? Try writing them down and examine the validity of these beliefs. Some of them may be limiting and negative in nature because of the kind of feedback you received while growing up - at home, in school, from your classmates, friends, relatives, etc. But once you are aware of them, you shed light on them,examine their truth, they can no longer manipulate your behavior or actions. As your beliefs change, your attitude changes, and words, actions and behavior follow. You may not be able to remove darkness when you confront it face to face, but when you light a candle, darkness automatically disappears. When you begin to address the conflicts within you that are demanding your attention right now, you will see that things that were bothering you earlier no longer seem to be obstacles. Please set aside time for exercise daily and make sure you eat healthy every time. Our challenges that seem to threaten our very existence are the ones that serve as fuel for our evolution.

You always have two options l,  what to take in and what not to take in, how to feel and how not to feel, how to think and how not to think, on what to focus and on what not to focus. It is in your hand what to choose and how to lead your life, if you loose your grip on you, even a monkey will decide how you have to behave. It tells you feel bad, feel insecure, feel worthless, feel guilty, hurt yourself and what not you will become a doll in the the hands of people around you. Take your life into your hands, it is very easy through a regular practice to your body,mind, and heart. There are more practical ways which helps you to live the life to the fullest possibilities. For now, write every thing in a paper that is hurting you, try to find the reason which should be backed by truth, logical and acceptable statements. Listen to any instrumental music for 45 minutes. Take your own childhood picture, look at him with so much love and affection. You are welcome to discuss in detail. good luck

Hi! Going through depression isn’t the most comfortable feeling and it can leave you drained out and feeling hopeless. Acknowledging this feeling and trying to figure out a way to get out of this is the best approach you can take to get yourself back to a place where you’re happy with you.
Next Steps
It’s highly recommended that you see a therapist and get yourself diagnosed properly and follow a proper treatment. Suicidal thought are not normal at all and you should see someone at the earliest.
Health Tips
Everyone goes through issues and problems but when it culminates into something that take you to a place in life where you find everything to be dark, it’s best to seek professional help immediately.
