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 feel like everybody hates me... and i don't blame them because there is no reason to like me. my mom always tells me that there's no reason not to like me, but she's just saying that because she's my mom. i feel like everybody is against me. like i'm on a totally different level than everyone else. everyone else is above me, and my depression separates me from everyone else in the world. i'm lonely but nobody would ever love me because of who i am.

'there is no reason to like me'...i cant believe that at all. for a start, ur a genuine enough person to care about this...and it doesnt seperate u from everyone else, u just have to look that little bit harder :) and they are usually the best people, they know what its like to go through this

I totally understand what you mean by that. Still, theres always someone out there who will like you. You just have to find them, and suffer until you do.

I think that this kind of feeling is a very large factor of depression. My best advice, get a group of people who will truly listen. I know that I have been breaking apart from a lot of my friends because I dont feel I can share my feelings with any of them. This is a great place to connect with people who are on the same page and will respect and listen to your feelings.

I have always felt completely different from everyone around me. Like I'm on a way different level, and people either think I'm anti-social, too intellectual, or a snob. I find it really hard to relate to other people, and I constantly feel let down by everybody. But I really don't think you should feel like you justify feeling that everyone hates you. Find a way to remind yourself of your good qualities. Learn to love your different-ness, because it's YOU! There is no one else out there like you! So maybe you are an "acquired taste". The best things always are ;-)

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...
