HUNDREDS of failed relationships??? Holy pete! Is that a slight exaggeration, or what?

You are still so young. I mean, you aren't even legally allowed to drink (assuming you are in the US). The world is a mess. I used to fret it, but I realized that the best thing for me to do was to work on myself, to be the best I can be and stand up for what I feel is right. If everyone worked on themselves, the world would be a better place. Do your part in what you feel is right. You are not responsible for what you cannot change. Set an example and enjoy life. There is something to making the best of it, even if you are in a war zone. As for relationships, eventually you will probably be grateful that they ended the way they did, even if it hurt or still does. Life gets better. Stay positive.

If you have done all that by 20, you are hardly a failure. You have a lot of life experience behind you that is for sure, my friend. You have your whole, entire life before you. Use your past as lessons learned and move forward. Make sure you know what you are looking for and see if that is where you are falling short. There are many good books on relationship advice and also on treating depression. Very good luck to you.

Your 20 years old and two failed marriages...Get yourself back to school get an education and see the world why do you want to be married at such a young age..

my goodness!!!! You have, in your short life, been through more relationships and marriages than I have in my long life! Ok - the main issue that you seem to be concerned about is with relationships - you are 20, and yet you have been married twice and had a lot of relationships - what exactly are you looking for in a relationship that has made these relationships fail? Being totally realistic, you must have had relationships that lasted only a matter of months or weeks at the rate you quote - and even the marriages must have been very quick! Relationships take time to develop - if you are rushing in, then you are not allowing time to tell whether it will be a good relationship or whether it is just a case of "lust at first sight". Mind you, having read your profile, you must have started VERY early - as you are 20 years old but have a 6 year old daughter! I am no mathematician, but... So, in relationships, I would suggest that you take time, slow down, take it easy, and let the relationship develop. However, the question you asked was about treatment of depression - difficult one, as there are so many reasons for depressions and as many treatments. You must remember that we ABers are not doctors - and although between us we have a LOT of experience on a LOT of issues, I really think that in this case, you are better off consulting professionals, who have time to listen to the whole history of the depression, and advise you on a range of treatments which fit your circumstances. Good luck!!!

Shit, Id be depressed too if i had married twice by age 20.

If I told you the mistakes I made at 20, you'd actually feel very proud of yourself. I swear I was the DUMBEST 20yr. old that walked the face of this earth! But, baby! let me tell you. . . .NOW!!!. . . .I'm ONE SMART COOKIE and "failing" is WAY behind me now! I'm smarter, tougher, savvier and resolute than I could have ever hoped to be! And it took "asshole" men to get me there! There's the BRIGHT side to what you're going through! It DOES get easier. . . .hang in there! Make it your "mission in life" to live your life well. . . . .inspite of these upsets!
