<s>[INST] iv asked questions here before. sometimes i received good answers, many times i received not good ones such as See a doctor . so im not expecting the best from this but id like any advice anyway. im just so desperate. im 18, iv had some severe depression for about a year or so now. i feel like i cant tell anyone about it. i havnt told a soul so far. its basically just literally ruining my life and almost every relationship iv created in the past (i mean friends or just any kind of relationship, even ones i formed back when i was really young) have seemed to dissipate inside of me. to all them they dont know because iv hid it. but inside i feel like i dont even know my life long friends anymore. iv been feeling like i cant even turn to my family anymore. everyones becoming so distant from me and i feel there s no where to turn. im living in some kind of empty void now. does anyone have ANY kind of advice for me???? besides from the too often repeated stuff (see top) [/INST] HI well come to Chat Doctor. It seems you are not happy if we ask you to see your doctor. But when question is asked should provide enough material to conclude the thing, every thing can not be judged by merely history, at times clinical examination and investigations are needed before giving medical advice. WE have our limitations to answer you. At present, it looks like you are suffering from depression. You got to help your self. Start thinking positive. Involvedyour self in social activity. Attain gathering and start mixing well with people. Selectactivity of your choice and keep busy in it. Make newer friends. All this will give you inner pleasure and will help you to come out of depression. Thanks </s>
