> I am only 16, but i think about the word deppressed a lot. I mean.. i know that i am a teenage girl and i will always face problems, but i think i only have one problem.. LIFE! I am always unhappy, regardless of the situation, everyone could be having a great time, but i can't no matter how hard i try. I have a hard time concentrating in school and i find my grades dropping, i use to be and A student and know i have a hard time reaching it. The littles thing will spring me off. I find myself crying myself to sleep and not wanting to get up the next morning. I feel alone and trapped, like nothing and noone can help me. I don't want to admitt that something is wrong with me, i want to be normal, feel normal, be happy, but i can't. For every smile i fake, i cry a thousands tears. Sometimes i feel like i live a lie, like nothing good will come out. Do i have a problem, is this normal. what do i do?
I have felt that way many times. Happiness is staying away from me on purpose, I don't deserve it, and I'll never be happy.
And that's when I force myself to look for something good....I'm a nature freak so usually thinking about how beautifull a tree or a flower or a cluod in the sky is can help me break out of my *funk*....doesn't neccessarily take away all my problems, but helps me to realize that life is precious, and I really should try to be glad to be alive. What works for me may not be the answer you're looking for, but please don't give up trying.
I also agree that you should try to find someone (counselor, relative, friend) with whom you can share, it really helps to talk out your fears and worries.
It can and will get better and you can ALWAYS talk to us!!!~~~8|8
