I am 18 years old. Recently, a lot of stress has appeared in my life. I stopped coping with my studies, improved relations with relatives and I was diagnosed with depression. Psychiatric illness is not recognized in my church, and I don't know who I can turn to for help and support. Perhaps someone had similar situations?..
Daria, it sounds as if you have gotten a lot of good advice so far. I just wanted to make sure that you have blood work performed by your doctor. I see an internist regularly, and when I first visited, he did blood work and found that I was deficient in vitamin B-12. Since that time I have taken a B complex vitamin supplement, and I have so much more energy and don't feel down so much. I noticed a big difference. Also, make sure that you do spend some time getting sunshine every day as much as possible (20 minutes or so is sufficient). Those sound like small things, but they can really help give you that natural boost. I hope you do well. God bless you.
