I'm not diagnosed with depression but I feel like I constantly have it . Sometimes I run out of reasons to keep going . I pick myself up eventually but I end up broken again. I'm tired of picking up the broken pieces..
sometimes in car rides , I'm desperately wishing that somehow I'll end up in an accident . Then everything would go black and I wouldn't wake up to keep going through this.

I have felt that way before. I used to be in a car and wish I would get hit by another car or be on a plane and wish it would crash. For me those were clear signs something was not right. I went to the psychiatrist and was diagnosed with depression. Mine started after I had my first child. I got post partum depression and after taking meds got better. I was fine for a long time until I had my second child and same thing and now it has been ongoing since he was born 6 years ago. For me medication and therapy works. Have you gone to a therapist? I also seek help at my place of worship and my family. That has also helped so much. You are very valuable and it has meaning even though it does not feel that way now. I encourage you to reach out for help to your family (if they are safe to do so with) or therapist. I will keep you in my prayers and thoughts. Sending you a HUGE ((((HUG))). Cuidate.
You sound very much like a depressed person. It appears that some professionals have missed that diagnosis in you. Have you told them about this thinking of yours? I can't believe if they heard what you just wrote that you wouldn't be diagnosed with depression. Therefore, I believe that they haven't heard these thoughts of yours.
Can you get a counselor? You definitely need one and that way you can get these thoughts out in the open and the counselor can help you to get the help you need. Beyond that, you need what the counselor can help you with in talking to and with you. When we are depressed, we see the world through a differently colored glass, and our perceptions aren't always right. That's where a counselor can help us interpret what we think we know or see or hear about our lives and our world around us. It's kind of hard to explain until you get a real life example.
Please don't let this go long before you either see a doctor or a counselor or a parent and tell them about your depression because it's very strong right now. You don't have time to waste on this. Your parents may not understand the severity of your symptoms, I don't know. A professional would. Just write down what you wrote about today and give it to a professional and/or your parents. ASAP. Please.
Don't give up.....I was at a bad place too a few years ago but through medication and counseling I am so much better today. There are people who care about you so please keep fighting. The worst thing you can do is be alone because your mind will always go south, surround yourself with positive people...if you need to talk call me...806 777-8142.Calvin.
