Life CoachAs long as you're pursuing what makes you happy and you're not intentionally hurting anyone, go out there and get the fresh start you really want. Don't let the fear of letting other people down keep you from being your most peaceful, satisfied self. - QuestionHow can you let go of bad habits and form good ones?
Community AnswerThese articles may be of some use: how to get rid of bad habits, how to learn good habits. - QuestionMy family judges me, my friends judge me, my sister makes me feel like nothing. I just want a fresh start. I have depression. How can I ignore the people I love the most? I'm sad nearly all the time.
Community AnswerIn my experience with anxiety and depression, I thought everyone was judging me when really they were just telling me what I needed to fix to have a better life for myself. I am sure your sister doesn't mean to hurt you. She may just be acting out in her own way, maybe pointing out other people's flaws makes her feel better about herself. Best thing to do is tell everybody you want to start fresh and you want to change for the better. If your depression is really bad, talk to your doctor and see what you can do.

Alternatively, you could try deleting your social media accounts so you can take a break from your online social circle. Additionally, consider rearranging your furniture at home to give your apartment or house a fresh feel.
