who says you need friends to be happy. Screw society. Society is fucked up anyways, they are the ones that have problems. Dont believe me? Take this for example, people would rather learn about which celebrity is dating who rather than how many children and families are suffering in Africa.

People nowadays always think about what they DONT have, and not what they DO have. Like your health, family, friends, school, education, career opportunities, safety, etc.

me too. I feel depressed in the winter. If it wasn’t for christmas and the holidays, there would be A LOT of suicides in the winter.

its normal buddy. Every teenager feels confused, sad, and different in this world. There are so many changes going on; physical, mental, and emotional.

Take it easy because life after highschool is A LOT better. Trust me. Highschool is hell, and is supposed to be. Teaches us how to face suffering. Then we can be able to be happy and face problems and obstacles in life.

religion is an opiate of the masses and islam has nothing to do with curing depression

Is it normal to be depressed at 13? I’ve thought about suicide a few times but I never actually ever do it.

Is there anyone you can talk to?

I’m not a teen anymore either but sometimes it’s still really rough.

I hope you’re feeling better.

Hi summer,
I’m glad that you kind of have a handle on your ‘winter sadness’ — but it sounds like you’re kind of suffering, and it’d be great if you could feel better. I know some people have good results with lightboxes, exercise, meditation, stuff like that…are you ready to try something new?

i feel the same way, i even attempt suicide but cant pull myself to actually do it, im hardly a teen anyway

don’t know if I’m deppressed, or if I just have S.A.D.,because in summer i’m energetic and happy most of the time, but in winter every thing goes black and I just spend most of my time hating stuff. I don’t think about suicide though. That’s the lazy way out.

I’m a depressive at eighteen and I am a complete loner and it is okay. The medication has not arrived and the angels have ripped the hair out of my head.

sometimes i just want to crawl in my blanket and fall asleep too…life feels so bad right now

The main symtoms are a lack of interest in and motivation to do things. Even with sex you feel you have to extend extra effort to do it like normal.

It doesn’t have to have a mood… the symptoms vary and so does the degree of the depression…

I don’t think about suicide though. That’s the lazy way out. Also I think I like to be alone, I don’t like being with people. Most of the time I don’t talk.

Things can be better. I wish you luck with everything, and hope things improve soon!

LFC, I’m sorry to hear that. Breakups can be so hard.

Yes thanks for this it explains exactly how i feel i’m going to watch the second part of it now and might make a comment there the most i got out of it was the part about “Feeling Helpless .Or Feeling Hopeless” I do take medication but it still isn’t really enough to try to make me happy
