On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your depression? (10 being the worst)

[vonvonwantpeace]

At the moment 8 most of the time it was 5. But it was still there, I felt it.

 

[Dazedandconfused32]

9 and the mornings are my best time of day

 

[khw777]

15

 

[metalchic_74]

10 I hate my life

 

[Moon Flower]

10 easy peasy

 

[Crystal Labeija]

Given that I want to end my life because of it, I think I'm justified in giving it a 10.

 

[Squiddy]

Right now, it's a 8

 

[SuicidalSymphonies]

10 every day. Nonstop.

 

[SerenitySeeker]

10+

 

[CrushedHopes]

It's hard to give my current state a rating. I am making preparations to off myself because I am stripped of my entire future. Yet, I feel at peace and I don't dread death. In fact, I am looking forward to it. I still have the energy to do stuff, just like before. I feel comfortable with the fact that I get to choose when I will be exiting the mortal realm. So.... I guess you could say that I am not depressed. It's odd for a suicidal person to say such things, but that's how I feel.

 

[Life+me=error]

Depends on the time of the day.
It varies from 6 to 10 for me.

 

[Roberto]

5 I think. 6.
Good days for me.
The worst is when I'm stressed. And the last months have been quiet in that front.
There are puntual situations in which I would say 7. And when I'm stressed 8.
I started to take medication 2 months ago. I think it helps a bit to confront depression. But it's not a miracle of relief.

Changes throughout the day but usually stays within the 3 to 7 category.

 

[deathbyginger]

Definitely changes day-by-day. But I tend to hover around a 7.

 

[woxihuanni]

-10. In the situation I am in, it'd be normal to be crying day and night, no libido, no nothing. But, I am pretty OK apart from the fact I don't know how many more days I will live. I should go to a shrink just to befuddle them and enjoy their frustration.

 

[Wayfaerer]

I cannot do anything without self-medicating anymore and I'm aware my doom in the near future is a certainty, so a 10. Never below an 8 for sure.

 

[AnxiouslyDepressed]

For the last few days an easy 8-10, fluctuations throughout the day. Now i'm at around 4-5, still considering what method to ctb thinking exit bag over SN

 

[TimeToBiteTheDust]

5. Sometimes I feel life's worth living and sometimes I want to die.

 

[ninthhokage]

Currently at an 8.

Usually the same boat mate, however this past week has been a constant need to find a way out, hence I found this site. No Pro-Lifer, but hope today is one of your better days, as I wouldn't want anyone to feel the pain and stress experienced on the days you want to die (which is why I want to ctb, that and I have nothing to live for anymore)

 

[RestingGirl23]

Like others, most days is a 5. My worst days are a solid 8. I've actually been dreaming about ctb for some nights now. I keep a diary on when I have suicidal thoughts and they seem to be getting more frequent and worse.

 

[JSauter]

10. Nearly non-functional

 

[cowbain]

Like 100? Maybe more. I've lost everything but most importantly I've lost myself. Nothing brings me joy anymore, not even my interests. My cognitive function keeps getting worse. I've lived an isolated life for years now, and as the time keeps passing by I've noticed that it's even more difficult to form connections with people. My therapists are the only people I can go to for help and talk to irl, and even they aren't taking me seriously and are half assed doing their job :/ The only thing that brings me some sort of contentment is the thought of dying. Hopefully this will all be over soon.

Lately an 8. The oil is very thick and bleak atm. Interestingly I went from a 2 to a 9 in 8 hours I thought to myself, how could I have felt those good things, and then to plummet to planning my cbt again. 'sigh'

I, too, some days go from a 1 through to a 8, always open to a PM if you need to talk (no Pro-Lifer here, but know you're not alone - those days can be rough)

 

[Deltrus]

My suffering is at like an 8 that spikes to 10. I'm not sure if that is depression, feels just like pure suffering. I have CFS and only have enough energy to stay in my bed 23 hours a day most days. I get a LOT of terrible sensations from my body, similar to pain but not really.

 

[Astral316]

I feel good because I'm going to ctb soon, so I barely rank. Maybe a 3 during late morning/early afternoon.

never know if it's weird to 'like' a post as this, obvs don't like yr situation. But hopefully it also can function as a way to say - I also feel the same way.
Was gonna say 11 but others have also gone above 10 ... so yeah 10+

 

[Wreck-it-Riley]

Spinal tap for life, its cranked to 11.

With BPD, i can fluctuate hourly. but my background depression never goes below a 7. This exact second i am an 8. But i woke up to a boy in my bed and that is always amazing.
