Dear, try to create new hobbies like chatting with friends, listening to music to divert your mind from being occupied by depression... i hope it will help you in someways..
Sometimes we have to do things we don't want to and we are not happy all of the time. This is true of everyone even depressed people. The odd thing is that sometimes doing this can give us a feeling of accomplishment and boost our self esteem. You haven't been at university long enough to know what you like. Finish this semester and if you still feel the same switch your major. Let your parents know you are trying, it will lessen their worry. Thinking of others is one path to happiness. Be good but firm to yourself. Pam
Oh Sweetie, I have problems without end it seems. It's that I am older and know some form of problem is always lurking and you have to learn to find your happy where you can. I fake it a lot too. Definitely see a counselor before you make a final decision and let us know what you decide. We will support you no matter what. Pam
Counselling support at uni sounds like a very good idea. Also, maybe the university would let you switch to another course without having to pay back any fees? It's very early days on the engineering course, maybe you'll start to enjoy it more after a few weeks? Have you made any friends on the course yet (I know that's not always an easy thing to do though)?
