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.
people know it and hear it all the time,
'things end, nothing lasts forever'
but even though you hear, you repeat, you see it
when it comes to whats in your heart, its hard to believe it
you know it will happen, a moment when silence becomes normal, and memories fade and new ones are never made
but in your heart, you want it to stay, you need it to stay
you view small obstacles as just that, little bumps that may slow you down, but doesnt cause a stop
you plan ahead, as much as you try not to, because your head still tells you there will be a day it wont be there
but you still have these subconscious expectations that by next week, youll still be there, by Christmas, I'll buy you a gift, by summer, we'll hangout late at night
but what happens when these expectations are taken away from you,
and this life you thought you still had to look forward to, is missing
what then?

Trust me Paige, I know exactly how you feel. As you can tell I too have been dealing with a friendship that has had some crazy ups and downs. I've missed out on so much expecting for those things to come to me when the fact is that I should've moved on. It's hard, but once you find those true friends(which I haven't) you must hold on to them forever.

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...
