If you sincerely think you’re suicidal then you need to immediately call a suicide hot line or go to your school medical clinic or center and tell someone there that you think you’re going to hurt yourself. Suicide is serious, and if you’re that down in the dumps that you’d hurt yourself, you need to take your feelings seriously and get help.
If you’re just very blue, then my advice to you is to put your energy that you’re using to be depressed into something productive and consuming. Clearly you need to get out of your regular routine. Consider volunteering at a local hospital or cancer ward. If you love animals, volunteer at an animal shelter or a hospital. If politics is your passion, get involved in your party and start making the world a better place one issue and election at a time.
Exercising is a great way to start feeling better on so many levels, so if you join a gym, go! And if you don’t belong, start a routine, whether it’s walking in a park, running, biking or roller blading. Do something that’s good for you and takes your mind off of your ex.
It’s time for you to move on, and while that’s a hard thing to do, especially in such close quarters as a university and a sorority, you CAN do it. I’m rooting for you!
Let me know how you’re doing and feeling.
