My doctor is a complete waste of space, arrogant prick who basically doesn't think that there is anything wrong with me and says that 'it's only yourself that can make yourself feel better'. Gee.........thanks for that excellent help!! I think I was in the room no longer than 2 minutes, just wasn't interested in anything I had to say.
I've tried talking to my friends but they don't really seem interested and just change the subject when I try to talk to them.
Basically the only option I have is to put up and shut up and try to sort myself out.
I know this probably doesn't help you out much, if at all, but this is just my own personal experience.
Hope you get everything sorted mate.
The doctor is right, the only person that can make you better is yourself..... however, he should have pointed you in the right direction as there is help you can seek.
As for seeking help in friends.... a true friend would listen.

I know where your coming from with your mates. Ive not told them yet but I know they wont be supportive. Its just ingnorance at the end of day, but then again everyones guilty of that. Me included by brushing this aside for so long.
The best support you can get is from the groups that are set up to help people like yourselves with depression.
When you visit your GP ask for any groups in your area that you could go to see - again, it's a big step.... but trust me, they are there to help.
Either that or have a look around the net.
