How can you say "take responsibility for your life"?

RE: How can you say "take responsibility for your life"?
Depression is a hard cycle to break. Sometimes people do break it, and sometimes people don't. I had serious problems when I was younger, and I learned one thing that helped a lot: you need to get control over SOMETHING in your life. In my case, I became vegetarian, because that was something other people couldn't take away by negativity. Once I had that foothold, I started decorating and keeping my room clean, organizing my college notes, etc.

But to be honest, depression is understood well now. If you live in a developed country, and you have it good enough to be attending college, then the level of drama you are showing is probably internally generated. Go to the nurse, get a referral to a counselor, and consider medication.

It's not your fault. But you'll have to take steps on your own-- at the very least, the decision to seek medical help.
