I’m new to this website. I came here to type what I want, and maybe talk to people who are in somewhat of the same situation as me. I’ve been depressed since at least 6th grade on and off. I never told anyone until my junior year and it just kind of exploded. I told my family and it bothers them but they don’t do anything to help. My mom only makes it worse. I think everyone has some sort of depression through their lives, but most people deal with it better or just don’t talk about it.
I don’t talk to people much because i don’t like them to think i’m doing it for attention, and when I try to talk to people they just don’t understand. I’m very unhappy, but who isn’t?

Hey (:
my depression (really more than anything just badd anxiety) began in 6th grade too, at 11. it’s been pretty tough since then dealing with the ups and downs and changes going on inside and out in the world. Or at least my world. I know what it’s like having people think you’re a drama queen (or king) and having people coming in and out of your life. my family is pretty ignorant too, they have a hard time even recognizing depression. i also think that my pmdd has made me more weak or easier to tear when it came to life events. It’s hard to deal with things you can’t control on the outside, but sometimes even harder with things you can’t control on the inside. And the combination of both, well, could practically drive you nuts.
And sure, everyone is unhappy to some point. Happiness is after all a state of mind. But like everything, it doesn’t last forever. Doesn’t mean it won’t reoccur, but it’s just important to recognize at least that fact. I should at least, it would help me more if I took that piece of advice myself lol. I guess that most people feel what’s in the present. Maybe it’s because we’re impatient? Who knows.
Anyway, welcome and you’re not alone.
Hi.
Well, whatever you want to talk about, please…I’m all ears:
What’s on your mind? I know it can be tough in school, and folks think you’re just doing it for attention:
Just don’t let it get to you, they don’t know you, so they can’t judge how you feel.
Only you can.
It’s youre life, through and through.
Hi. You’re welcome to talk to anybody here and they won’t judge you or make you feel bad about being depressed. I’ve had depression on and off, as well, for what I has been a lot of my life. Since I was 12 or so. I’ve always been an emotional person and little things would just set me off. I remember coming home from school and crying practically everyday. Recently, my life situations have made it worse, to the point where I thought about ending it. I’ve decided to give my life a chance though. You are not alone here.
I am here as well. You have shoulders and ears
