Depression - Teen Support Group
Teen depression is marked by persistent sadness, discouragement, loss of self-worth, and loss of interest in usual activities. Depression can be a temporary response to many situations and stresses. Teens may be more susceptible to depression due to the normal maturation process, the stress associated with it, and conflicts with parents as they become more independent.

last night I spent the night at my friends house, she was my best friend, I made a mistake a few months ago and I thought we'd never be friends again
We stopped really talking and hanging out for about three months
I missed her so much everyday,
Last night we hungout and talked, about every problem we ever had with eachother that we kept inside ( at least the questions we had for eachother that we could think of )
I never think people will end up caring if I kill myself, but when she started asking me about it she got really quiet
At around in the morning she was tired so she was going to sleep, and I couldnt sleep because all I could think of was wanting to die and how much better everything would be
She moved down to lay near me, she asked why I wanted to die and I couldnt really say anything because I would of broke down crying, she started just asking me random questions to keep me talking
She was so tired, but she stayed awake with me until and said she wouldnt fall asleep until I did first
I really love her for that,

That's really sweet of her. I think I have the answer to her question. You feel like if you died you could finally get someone to care, because you don't believe anyone cares. I have to thank your friend, because she proved to you that she actually cares and she's not the only one who does. I'm so happy you have a friend like that.

Thats so nice of her! You are so lucky to have such an amazing friend! You sound like a awsome friend too xx

I often fantasize about dying and if people would suddenly realize just how much they missed out on by not being closer to me or appreciating me more. You are so very lucky to have your friend. Take care of that friendship, because it sounds like it's worth it. good luck.
