Oh sweetie, I know how you're feeling right now. I spent 7 years of my life depressed, and around 4 of those years I was seriously depressed. I also cut myself, and still do sometimes. I know how it's like to feel utterly alone. My advice is to try to get the right meds. That's what did it for me. Before I went on Celexa, I had been on three others, and none of them worked. You might have to go through a lot of meds before you find the right one. I know without my meds I would go crazy. You also need to know that you're not alone. I felt so alone when I was sick, felt I was crazy, and I wasn't. You're not either. It's not your fault. As for the cutting, that's not easy to stop, but don't beat yourself up over it. I've come to realise it's an addiction, like smoking, or alcohol, and a promise to a loved one isn't going to stop it. I'm not exactly sure how to stop it, but I know the meds help control it. When you get in a better mood, you probably won't want to do it as much. You've got to be careful. I hope I've been some what of a help.
