for about a month now all i've felt like doing in crying and i don't know why

Go chat to your Doctor, could be hormonal, or something else. But dont leave it, its not worth it.

thanks well i have an appointment coming up soon

days come and days go and i still feel oh so sad

Sometimes the only thing that helps is medication, and sometimes even that doesn't help. It is a great idea to see your doctor, I'm glad you're doing that. It can be really hard to get motivated to do anything that might make you happy while you're depressed. Nothing sounds like it would be fun or worth doing. Sometimes all I can do is sit through the depression episode, even if it takes weeks, etc. Have you tried journaling, exercising, or reading? I know it's hard to find interest in anything at all, but maybe something can distract you until your doctor's appointment. Have hope. It may take some time, but this dark period will pass.

thanks maria i need someoen to talk to but at timez i feel like i need to cry and nothing happens
