Hi alli need to know if you think my friend is over reacting.she says i need to go on anti depressants. she has told me this many times. i'll agree with her that i feel really depressed currently, but thats because she has totally obilterated my heart, -she knows this and admits to it. i've only found out this week the 'news' that broke me in two, and have been very depressed / thinking suicidal thoughts alot.HOWEVER, i think its just cause of this girl. and in time i will get over her and wont be so down. i think after being like this for 1 week, its not right to tell someone to get on anti depressants. (btw i also think its extremly unfair to break someone apart, hurt them so deeply, then tell them to get on anti depressants to make it 'ok'.)yet this girl keeps telling me its a mental condition and that i am most likely unblanaced and am stuffed up totally and that i need mind altering drugs to change me so i look at things positively.do you think i should go to a doctor just because of a relationship breakup? thanks for anything

Hi Cool, I don’t really know much about anti-depressants, but I do know that they aren’t always the right answer. However I do agree with your friend in that you do need to talk to some one about the way you are feeling at the moment, may be a doctor or some one. You don’t have to go on to anti depressants, and this will allow you to talk to some one who can professionally tell you whether you need anti-depressants or not. I think that your friend obviously cares for you, and remember that every one becomes depressed at some point in their lives, if only for a short while.Personally I do think that your friend is over reacting, but possibly only because she cares.Talk to some one, about how you feel, it doesn’t matter who it is.Take care,Mors_Mortis

shit dude!you dont "need" anti-ds.i was depressed for 7 years before i started to to use them.and against the advice of my psychologists and psychiatrists i decided to stick it out without them.yeah,eventually AFTER 7 YEARS! i started to use them.why'd she hurt you?what happened?but yeah,you dont need them,you should speak to someone like a counsellor about your suicidal thoughts and your current shitty feelings.she shouldnt try and aportion the blame on you for her mistreatment of you by saying you have an chemical imbalance,yet she probably does care about you and is trying to help even if it her advice isn't correct.there's actually no correct/incorrect.it's personal and subjective.

In reply to: Talk to some one, about how you feel, it doesn’t matter who it is. hardest thing is that the ONLY one i can talk to is her. its like someone kicks u in the shins, and you can ONLY turn to them to hug you better, and while you're hugging them, they kick you again, and you just hold them tighter, and they kick you again... and again In reply to: why'd she hurt you?what happened? i dont think filling you in on this is going to get anyone far. probably just bore you all. she's split me in two and i really hurt. i assume i will get over this, but i dont know how well i will do this if i stay in contact with her. as stated, she is my only friend i can talk to about this and she has been my closest friend for many years. In reply to: you should speak to someone like a counsellor about your suicidal thoughts i was thinking that this type of action is over the top for relationship / friendship breakups. isnt it something we all go through and get over and i guess its just part of growing up?thing is, this girl says im thinking suicidal thoughts etc cause i'm 'chemically inbalanced'

Antidepressants can be extremely helpful. People who are depressed really are chemical unbalanced.However, if you are normally all right, and you are just down this week because of problems with the relationship, this wouldn't be considered clinical depression. It would be called reactive depression, and considered normal. We'd all feel bad in your situation.

btwmy only friend that i talk to,although overseas.she just wasnt doing it for me,i could feel her mouth would say i love you,and her actions didnt corroborate that.i told her we're over and through.i felt so much better after that.maybe,if she is doing you more harm than good,just stop seeing her all together.
