Depression Understood Forums

Thanks I talked to my mom about depression and what would happen if one of us had it. She basically down played it as a weakness so i cant tell my parents.

Ok, this is most likly going to sound very confusing but most of the time I have no idea what I'm feeling. When people ask me what I feel I say sad because that is what I assume I'm feeling but actually I have no I idea what I'm feeling. If I were to describe how I feel I'd say I feel like I'm trapp...

Thank you Obayan and Takingintothewind.If I get the chance i guess ill go.

Oh ok that makes sense. Thanks lol but I can't get help. Not for a while anyway.

I don't know if i'm depressed or not. It's really starting to wear me down at moments i think i am and other times i just dont know. There will be times ,usually almost everyday, where nothing seems fun and I just sit there alone in my room thinking till my head hurts, oblivous to everything and won...

Ah I'm sorry I wrote this on one of my bad days. I feel like that alot but I can't talk to a cousillor because all the ones at my school I really don't like. I've talked to then before. As for a hotline isn't that when you're about to kill yourself? The idea that I had isn't going to take place for ...

As I sit here thinking I have come up with a plan that seems so nice. It's scary though that I can think about this and it seems like a good descison and it seems like the best solution.

What did I want here? I can't remember I must remember something It nags at the edge of my brain What is it? Th...

I know exactly what you mean. If I were out more things would be a little better. However going out and having to worry about what could go wrong is hard but sometimes you just have to jump into it without thinking. It takes alot of energy but the more you do it the better it will get. At least that...

I can't ask help from my family because I'm supposed to be the strong one. My mom always tells my brother to be like me because nothing bothers me. Nothing bothers me because I pretend it doesn't. Also my brother recently broke down in school and told the teachers he was gonna kill himself and now h...

I'm catcat and yea I decided to join since the chat has helped me. I already posted in the My Story thing. I'm not sure if I'm depressed but I'm pretty sad most of the time.

So I decided to join because the chat has helped me. My story isn't really intresting nor important. I guess I should start with when it kinda began...I think that's when it started. Well anyway, I was about 6 or 7 when my parents decided that my mom , brother and I were going to move away back to G...
