I am a guy and I’ve been severely depressed twice in my life. Make sure that you seek professional help immediately. Don’t let anyone talk you out of it because your life actually depends on it. There is a good chance you will consider suicide if you do not address this immediately.

– DON’T defriend this man on FB. Just leave FB alone for now until you have recovered from depression

– DON’T try to save your friendship right now

– TELL him that you are depressed and that you need to seek professional help right now

– DON’T get into a long discussion with him about why you are depressed. Just tell him that you need to seek
help and that you are not seeking to end your relationship

– AGAIN, DON’T let anyone talk you out of seeking help. I remember doing the same thing. Not being able to get out bed and feeling the hope was lost

– YOU WILL RECOVER if you seek help. Depression is not permanent. However it can last a long time. I still have residual effects of depression nearly 7 years later, but it is not severe or overwhelming. It is very manageable

– EVALUATE your relationships after you have recovered to a manageable level of depression
