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.
Does anyone find that one Season will set off your depression?
I generally happier during Autumn and Winter...
But it's the middle of spring now and I'm feeling depressed again!!
I guess the main reason for being depressed is my mother made me feel worthless... And all those comments were always said in summer so i guess its tainted now.
She never really said anything negative towards me, besides calling me stupid or saying i was too full of myself (not true by the way), but its the way she speaks about my sister and then doesn't say the same for me...
She says I'm "Entertaining" in this humorous voice, where as my sister gets to be fucking "Beautiful".
These superficial comments from my mother led me to partake in dangerous dieting in the past 4 months and now I'm struggling between starving myself and binging.
... Wow, i got sidetracked, sorry this is so long.
It was only meant to be short.
I have too many words and emotions pent up inside me, now its like they're seeping out slowly like a gaping wound...
Sorry for the gory image.
So, does anyone else find the seasons/weather trigger their depression?
... Or is it just me?

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
