For the past couple years, I've been dealing with depression. I'm lonely, sad, scared and worried. I feel like there's no reason to live.
I was genuinely worried about the person I spoke to
I am not sure why the conversation ended. I think the other person left. I had hoped to get a confirmation from them that they would see their doctor.

Have you reached out to people who may be feeling the same? I know that has helped me when I have felt down. It is not easy, I know, but sometimes taking a small step can make all the difference

I don't like to bother people who are feeling the same way. I don't want to be a burden on them

I understand. Do you want to tell me more about what has been on your mind?
assistant
Question
Sure. Everyday feels pointless. I wake up, do nothing, go back to sleep. Even when I do things it still feels pointless. I feel like life is meaningless and I would be better off dead. I want to be happy, but I feel like I can never be happy. If I can never be happy, then what's the point of being alive?

I really do understand. It is very strong and brave of you to speak up. I have suffered depression myself in the past and one thing that truly helped was going to see my doctor and talking it though with him. He suggested medication and after some trial and error I found one that worked. You must be so strong to have dealt with the way you are feeling for so long. Please know there is help out there. I know from experience. You are a person of worth.
