a big blow

Depression has been a big blow to everything that I am. Its like a sledgehammer hit my soul and spirit. I am now weak in every way...no, more like vulnerable. I get so caught up in movies. When it's a dramatic scene, I get choked up and I have to stop myself from crying. I've become weak...too sensitive. Also, I'm desperate for social interaction. I would jump immediately into any social relationship that comes to me. The foundation of my principles have also been shattered by that sledgehammer. Video games are not worth my time anymore, at least I think so. I am nothing. I'm pitying myself. But what's there to do about it? I don't know how to fix it. Will the medicine do their work?
