It really does sound like you are a bit depressed - have you been to see the doctor? I hope you can get some help, it is awful to feel that way I know.

Good morning or evening or day or night or afternoon and hello. My name is Hamed Khatiz and I am a sixteen year old student, writer, adviser, music lover, shooter guard, would be lawyer and many more from Sydney, Australia.

OK, a couple of things. The first one is something I very highly recommend to you. You seriously need a councillor, a psychologist. It might sound like I am stating something obvious and I do not mean to be rude by popping up the word "psychologist" so soon.

But what I mean by that is you need to talk to someone who is willing to talk to you about your emotions, someone who knows how you feel, someone who can give you advice personally and professionally. Someone you can call at 3AM when you just need a conversation or in the middle of an emergency. I might be able to talk to you, but I cannot get to you immediately if it is an emergency, I am not a professional either. I might be experienced but not professionally. So just keep that in mind.

I want to ask you a serious question and something which would shed some light on the situation. It could get confusing so bare with me. Have you ever been involved in any incidents or events which may have left you with some lapse in judgement or perception?

I ask that because the effects of past events which you may or may not have forgotten about which have come back to you may cause depression. For example, I am terrified of driving, it is unexplained, I always advice people on safe driving and get positive feedback.

I might have been involved in an accident and even though I forgot about it, the effects could still be there which result in my phobia. Has anything like that ever happened? You don't have to share it, but especially because this depression is unexplained, as you say, you live a potentially wonderful live with a relationship and stuff, that could be the cause.

Yeah, it's obviously natural to want to live a wonderful and amazing life you know you have and I know you want to be cured as fast as possible, but by talking to a professional and experienced consultant, you find a cause for your depression and then we can begin finding a cure. Things will get better, you will enjoy life, but it takes time. Endurance is the only question. As for the effects of unconcious past memories, that could be it, especially because it is so unexplained. It is an enticing possibility. If you find any events or anything like that, tell your consultant about it, because it helps look for a cause.

Before I go, I just want to make sure you do not get a couple of things mixed up. The first one. Your consultant is a professional, they have intense experience, but you do not have to think of them as your "doctor". They are your friend, someone who you can call and someone you know could get you out of this. Second one. Remember always that depression is a real disease and it does take real time to get better. But also remember always that all diseases are survivable and enudrance is the only question.

Thank you, Hamed Khatiz....
