I know you guys don't really care about this but, recently, my depression had gotten out of hand and I couldn't take it anymore.
Normally, I don't like to talk to people about my problems because I know that what I say could bother others or they're going through other things. I usually am the type of guy to sit and listen to others, helping them with whatever they need. But I couldn't take it anymore, it physically hurt me to hold in all of my feelings. I would get this sharp pain and want to bawl my eyes out. Yesterday, I was crying really hard and wasn't thinking straight. To put it simply, I wanted to end everything right there and I was talking to someone I know about it. This person is a really nice guy but what he was telling me just made me feel even worse, I'm not going to say what he said, and I'm not going to say his name out of respect.
So, after he just decided he was done, I layed in bed sobbing, asking for a sign, anything at all. After crying myself to sleep, I woke up with serious bags under my eyes and I was really tires since I only got three hours of sleep.
During school, everything seemed a lot better and I started feeling really nice. Then, I got a letter from  person that had I recently lost as a close friend and it was this really long apology that made me feel really great. On top of that, I found out the person I like, also likes me back.
I also got to take the time and think about all the good things I've done, and managed to remind myself that I'm a good person and ending my life wouldn't do anything good.
To all of you people out there that feel like life is falling apart and things aren't going as planned, it all gets better. I know you've heard this plenty of times before but, it does, I've been depressed for a long time and I know what it's like. If you need someone, I'll be that shoulder to cry on, you all have a purpose and your lives are all important.
This is pretty random but I'm doing a lot better now and I'd be more than happy to help those of you that need someone to talk to.
