I give up. I'm tired of this. Is it always going to be like this? 5 years. It's hard to believe it can ever be any different. I can't do what I want if I'm still like this. I've fought so hard to get to uni - stopped self-harming, suicide attempts etc, but I'm still depressed. What am I doing this for? I can't be a clinical psychologist if I'm depressed. Well I might be able to but it would be too hard and I wouldn't be able to do the job properly and it would effect my patients. What's really going to change in 2 years when nothing has the last 5? Counselling, medication, hospital and I'm still like this. I remembered just now that I hadn't taken my tablet yet today so I took them but as I was popping them out the packet I just wanted to go on. Over 300 of different types. But the thing is I don't know whether it would work. Or even if I'm honest if I want it to. I just want things to be better. Is that too much to ask? Yes I'm feeling sorry for myself tonight but am I not allowed to do that occassionally? Why me? I can understand if it was just one lot of bad things but lots? Yes I've done lots of bad things the last few years but what before then? What did I do to deserve feeling like this all the time? Was my sister right and I just am a bad person? I mean that's what I believe - I AM a bad person, but what did I actually DO? I'm tired of being like this. I don't want to be depressed anymore. I can't live like this forever. I don't want to commit suicide but I don't want to live like this either. Am I just fighting for something that won't happen? Will I always keep fighting but never get anywhere? And how will I know whether that's the case or not? How do I know things will change? How do I know they'll get better? It could just be I'm trying pointlessly and I might as well give up now to save myself pain. But then that's selfish. I can't do that to my family and my two friends. It wouldn't be fair of me. I know how much it hurts to lose someone and as much as sometimes I think they shouldn't care about me, I know they do and I can't do that to them. But this is hard. I'm worn out.
