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.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
but i'm gonna be honest with you
i don't have that great of a family situation either
my dad's abusive
he remarried to an abusive wife
their relationship failed miserably
i've lived in 6 different places
and i'm prolly gonna move again sometime in the future
my mom is remarried to a guy who lives across the country
his daughter is trying to break them up
his son is living with a girlfriend and has a kid
my older sister has a personality disorder and takes out her anger on me
okay?
i'm not trying to say "feel sorry for me" or anything
and i'm not trying to belittle your situation
because i know how much this stuff sucks
and i used to be just like you
i blamed all my problems on them
i said that they were the reason i got into drugs
i was so addicted and so wasted
i have tried every drug out there
but then i learned something
who they are
and what they choose to do
that's their problem not yours
you can be whoever you want to be
you don't have to follow in their footsteps
they don't define you
so be whoever you want to be
don't let them stop you
you are you own person
do what you want with the life you've been given
prolly dead.
no joke.
but things get worse before they get better. a very close friend of mine told me. a few weeks earlier i lost that friend to suicide. But anyway. i hope things get better for you.
