If you think you might be suffering from depression, see your GP at once.

If life is getting you down, and it does all of us, I think it'd be best to see your uni councellor. I don't mean to sound harsh, but there's not much an internet posting board can do here.

What youÂ’ve described (falling out with friends, falling behind on work) is the sort of thing that happens to everyone at various points in their life. ThatÂ’s what it is, life. YouÂ’re describing everyday life. YouÂ’re obviously pretty stressed out, and if youÂ’re that stressed out by such simple things, IÂ’d recommend you take a long weekend off from Uni and maybe make an appointment with the counsellor at your students union to discuss how you can lower the stress in your life.

IÂ’m sure a Uni counsellor or a GP would be better equipped to help you than a message board

Firstly - *hugs*
Now, I felt like this for a long time; I can only tell you what helped me, it might not help you, I can't promise anything..
FOr starters, harsh as it sounded, I had to realise that my friends were right - only I could sort myself out. It took an effort of will, but I kind of woke up one morning thinking - am I really enjoying feeling like this? I am lonely - but will people want to spend time with someone who acts like this? So I had to change myself - making a conscious effort to smile more, not be snappy, and (horrid as it sounds) pretend I *was* happy - and in the end I was. The other thing I did was throw myself into my college work You may feel behind now, but you *can* make a difference now if you decide to stick at it. Don't do it today, Fridays baaad for work! Start Monday, decide that you're going to chip away at the work one bite at a time. Make a list of stuff that needs doing, in order of priority, and whittle list down a bit at a time.
My friend V gave me my most fave piece of advice about this:
Q: How do you eat an Elephant Sandwich?
A: One bite at a time...
I hope this is *some* help at least - I'm not being very coherent cause I'm ill in bed with a fever, so apologies for rambling!
*more hug*
