Exams and depression

    I feel really depressed and I don't know what to do.

    I'm in my final year in college, I've got 2.1's every year but I can barely see myself scraping a pass this year. I feel so down all the time, crying and procrastinating, and can barely study for my exams which start on Monday. I hate my course (I liked it at first but as time has gone on I've grown to resent it) and I've been doing no work all year as a result. I feel like I've failed myself by allowing myself to get into this hole. Getting up each morning and going to class in itself has been an almost unbearable task. I have a girlfriend and sometimes I think she's the only aspect of my life that makes me happy.

    I know how ridiculous this sounds. I've been extremely well provided for and shouldn't have any reason to complain, and that objectively speaking there are countless people who are much worse off than me, but I regularly ask myself what's the point to it all?

    Have you spoken to your college counsellor? It sounds like you may need some help meeting your depression head on...
