    I've been in that hopeless, depressed mood and I agree that it can be very difficult to climb out of it. I'm sorry you're going through this.

    Some of the things I've found that helped was indulgent distractions. I've made scrapbooks of the person I missed, written poems or letters to them, and made music videos. Actually I make music videos often which keep me busy for a long time and can usually help me get my feelings out. Sometimes I walk on trails or go to the park and take pictures. Messing with the pictures is also a good distraction for me.

    But don't be so hard on yourself about crying in your room also. Crying is cleansing and is very human when you are grieving a loss. It's ok to cry buckets. I think sometimes society has made us feel like we shouldn't cry. People worry that crying is a sign of depression. But you miss him and you have a loss, so crying and being sad is natural. Sadness is not depression if you are sad about missing someone.

    have you told your bf this? could work out a way to be together more often

    otherwise, you can keep yourself busy to keep your mind off it
