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.
So great to hear from you. Writing can be so beneficial...please continue to do so. It is also great to hear you have a therapist. And remember, there are people here to listen.
Thats a very good question. Honestly i\'m stil trying to figure that one out. Today when I got on the omputer I typed in the Google search box \" Support Groups\" Hoping I could find someone that would listen, comfort, and give me advice. I am a very friedly person, and my favorite people are the ones I just meet, or havn\'t yet. No one knows that im going through difficult times...there are a few people that know that there are things that keep stressing me...but no one knows that i think it has turned into a serious depression. I am thinking baout writing a journal on my story. Its kind of long so dont expect it( or the whole thing) any time soon.
Thank you.

I dont write anymore because i look at it as writing down what i think. If im the one thats doing the thinking. Then i already know whats going on. I didnt used to think of it that way. I used to think of it as a way to remember what i was thinking. But if you think about certain things long enough...I promise...You dont forget.
I think and think.
I get home and type.
Nothing.
But sometimes i feel better knowing sometimes its better for me to try to help others, than to look for help myself. And thats all i really want. Is to help others. Thats why i want to be a physical theropist when i grow up. Not save lives like a doctor. But to help them. Where do all my anger/stress/questions go? Im not sure...maybe they\'re in the sink.
