I'm still alive. Just broken.
FrostBound:
Hapless i am sorry for what happened, but you need to realize one thing here. Being depressed isn't helping anyone, especially you.
And i am glad to hear that you are trying to help out the girl, and that is what you should do.
All these im sorry, and it sucks happened posts aren't helping for shit.
What you needed to hear was that you need to pull your head up again, get out of the ditch you were in, and help the girl and yourself.
In reality, some people think we can help you, but we cant. WE cant do jack, all the help you need is the help you can give yourself.
If you really love this girl as much as you say, you WILL find a way to help her, you have to.
The thing that happened to her, it could have happened to anyone, hell a car could hit you the next day, that's how life is, you never know what will happen or when, but since it happened to her, its up to you to help (not try, help) her, or just sit there and do nothing.
Every person has gone trough something that makes them feel really depressed, but it all depends on how they went trough that time of their life.
Now i trust that you will make the right choice later on, it looks like you have started to make it already.
Also for the people arguing on this post, this is a post to try and help hapless, not a place to bitch on someones post.
And if anyone asks why i said something like this.
It's because he needed to hear it.

he said he's "running on sleep and weed" which indicates that he's probably using it very frequently and heavily to try to mitigate the depression
weed IS physically harmless when used responsibly, but responsible use is the key concept here
although it's less addictive than almost every drug on the market including caffeine, any substance will create withdrawal symptoms if you rely on it to accomplish a task (especially one vital to life, such as relieving depression) and then suddenly remove it from your life
what I'm suggesting is that he wean himself off of it slowly to the point where there's no longer a reliance present
I can easily talk about this somewhere else but it's probably time for us both to keep the discussion on track

I know your intentions are good, but what is wrong with you
"I'm sorry that you have such terrible circumstances but you're harming yourself and others by being upset about them and you should stop"
"don't worry, you need to hear this trust me"
i appreciate all you guys trying your best to be supportive but there's more to assisting someone with depression than telling them what they already know, i.e. "being depressed is a bad"
FrostBound:
Well yeah, he is hurting himself the most by being depressed like that, and he needs to stop before he fucks himself over with something.
And i don't really see what we can do besides give our opinions, unless you wanna drive to where he lives or something similar.

you keep talking about it like he gets up every morning like "well gosh darn, it seems as if my life is falling apart! i'd better be depressed to fully enjoy the extent of my misery!"
it's possible to be self-indulgent in sadness about something, but this is a completely different situation
if you honestly believe that people choose to be depressed i don't know what to tell you other than that i hope you never become a parent for everyone's sake

Would just like to put this out there that if you're to experience ACTUAL withdrawal from weed (not breaking a psychological dependency habit), which is possible from my understanding, then you've got some serious issues and must have way more weed than you know what to do with. Either way withdrawal from weed is a walk in the park compared to what most people associate withdrawal symptoms to. I really wouldn't be concerned with him going through actual withdrawal.
I don't think it's healthy to so strictly depend on anything for mental 'stability' though, unless there's actually a major condition which requires such a thing. If anything it'd probably just slowly hack away a bit at a person's confidence and dignity after extreme indulgences consistently over a period of time. As long as you watch out and make sure you don't feel like you're becoming reliant on it and like you're incapable of functioning in any aspect without it then you're fine. Though I'd hope that goes without saying.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)Also thought I'd point out that I'd wish people would stop making subtle ignorant accusations and stabs at people whether it's mcdreary or anyone else. It's genuinely annoying me reading through the comments seeing people posting with such passive aggressive and snide posts consisting of one to two sentences generally unrelated to the thread, or at least which are rude and unnecessary. If you feel like mcdreary should keep quiet about his issues, then I feel you should keep quiet as well and ignore the thread as I'm certain others are doing.
