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.

The best thing? Find something that makes life worth living for, even if just for a few more minutes. Chocolate. A friend. Family. Something you love to do.

Find something that you want to do while you still can. I know its hard, because with depression comes a lot of apathy, but just try. You can do it!

Get rid of the bottle... it's the best way to stop the urges to overdose. And you should talk to someone, someone you trust, someone close to you. Or use here, because we're all here for you. Find something in your life that you enjoy, and live your life to the fullest! Ending it sooner doesn't make it any better, it just stops any chance you have of having a better future. Good luck!

agreed. get rid of the bottle. i know where all the tylanols, sleeping pills, and other pain relievers ar in my house, and i have to continioulsly stop myself from overdosing. The reason why i am still alive is because everytime i feel suicidal, i think of how my family would react to me being gone, and i just dont want to do that to my family. Next time you feel suicidal, talk a nice walk and think about your family. Killing yourself is kind of like killing them too.
