    Recently, I realized I was falling into some unhealthy ways of thinking. I've felt like nothing will work out for me. I've thought about death a lot more than I should. I had a panic attack in public.

    So, a few days ago, I decided to take my mind off the things that were worrying me: grad school applications, tension with my family, frustration with the town I live in, and so on. So far, I've been moderately successful. I haven't felt horrible, but I still feel a little down. I want to be happy, but I'm stuck. Does anyone have advice on how to get past this?

    I would suggest you talk with your personal physician and look into finding a psychologist/therapist.

    If you ever get those feelings of wanting to hurt yourself call 1-800-273-8255 and/or get yourself to an emergency room.
