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've been as depressed as a valley for 7 months. I'd like to go into more details, but the thing is, I'm not sure how this thing works. A reply would certainly get my lonely mood up. :'(

I'm glad you found DS! This is a great place to talk about your emotions and to get help. I've been dealing with depression since the 2nd grade, and I'm about to get into my 10th grade. I'm a cutter, but haven't done so for maybe 2 months. I've also been suicidal, I've never been in a hospital for it, but I feel like I should, so I know how it feels for everything to feel like it's tearing apart. If you ever feel like you need to talk or have any questions or anything, please don't hesitate in messaging me.

Thank you!!!

I don't know where to start exactly. You probably won't understand everything unless you know everything about me.

But currently, I'm dealing with a hard school schedule, made extra hard with depression and it's most bothering symptoms, which are headaches, back aches and sleep paralysis. I often cry because of how the day gets with them. Plus, I'm mostly always lonely. It gets to me how lonely I am in terms of not being able to make someone understand my feeling. It's vexing.
