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.
Hello,
It is so amazing how happy you can be one moment and the next feel like you are being ripped apart. I am back into being totally happy one minute into feeling like I could fall any second. I am sick of becoming one of those people who only care about them selves. I am sick of being mean and hating my self along with everyone else. Fed up with the nights were I lay there just thinking about how much i hate myself. I am so self centered and have no heart. When is everything going to end? We have gotten this picture of perfect in our mind because that is what everyone else thinks. What if the life that we are living right now...good or bad....what if this were perfect? We have become people that look at apperance before we even hear a person speak. Our minds are so small that we cant come to think that science is wrong or anything else for that matter. Nothing has to be wrong. Nothing is but we make such a big deal out of everything. If it isnt how you or someone else would have done it it is imperfect. There are different ways of thinking and doing things. No wrong way. Judgement has become everything. You have to judge before you get something...before you become a friend...before you get a job. Why cant it be as simple as trusting and going for it?

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...
Judging has also become a way of life, i mean we have how many tv shows that give us an image of what we need to be succsesfull in a world that we create ourselvs.
We dont that its ourselves that make life what it is. Yes, people do influence us and point us in directions, but its us who need to show others that life isnt about judging, but like you said, about trusting and going for it.
Dont think about other peoples mistakes and cruelty. Figure out what you can make out of your own life. That is why you were born after all. If you can change your way of thinking and be possitive and not want to hurt anyone or anything than maybe you can get someone else to change. At the very least you wont do damage and that is no small thing.
