depression

This is not the place to seek solice. I hope you're getting real help. When you're taking it out on people who care about you, that's means you're in trouble and should get professional help.

I think suggesting getting professional help is good advice, but I don't see a problem with asking about issues like this on E-I. Different things work for different people. Obviously this is not the place to get professional help and that is often what is needed most in a situation like this, but I would hate E-I to be a place where people can't share things like this, because it is too hostile and unfriendly an environment. By posting here Harry is recognising that he has a problem and sharing his experience. Others here can probably understand his situation some or relate. It may even lead to others here evaluating their own situation and realising they too are struggling with a real problem. I hope Harry gets some advice which is useful or at the least some friendly understanding.
