in your case, i would seek help from a therapist, stop cutting yourself like honestly what is that really doin for ya? alot of people get depressed but threes no need for cutting, i think you got a real problem hun go and seek some professional help, Good luck and take care of yourself, you only got one life so don't take advantage of it.

Answer 3

Only at night? Can you think of any reasons why you might be depressed? Maybe you have a lot of pent up stress? Try to get rid of your emotions during the day and maybe you'll sleep better at night.

Answer 4

even though for many people night is when they are really alive for me it's kinda sad too because it's like the end of another day and sometimes I feel like Im going no where, thats why I used to like to wake up really early like 4 30 am and took a shower and got ready for school that way towards the end of the day I will be so tired by 7 or 8 that I will fall sleep. I also used to exercise A LOT like til the point of exhaustion and believe there is no better cure than that because when your in your bed at the end of the day everything seems to be fine.

Answer 5

the reason you get more depressed at night cause your alone and you got nothing else to think about...i do the same thing and it takes me hours to fall asleep...cutting yourself isnt gonna help anything

Answer 6

There is a theory: children born during the day have their positive energy during the day and children born during the night feel more 'in their element' during the night (test: when do you study more successfully, during the night or during the day?); I am a day child so everything is OK during the day but when the night comes I am restless unless I am tired enough to sleep; I also get depressed during the night for no apparent reason; if I cannot sleep I make a tea and go to the computer to get in touch with other people, I even do something such as ironing or any other physical work (although I love to read, in these moments I cannot concentrate); will this help a bit?
