i dont know hwere to post this but i was wondering if any of these problems are associated with anything serious...

-irritability
-lack of affection
-confused i the mind...i cant make up my mind like i wanna break up with my bf one day but then i just change my mind after the phase wears off and i try and act like nothing has happened.
-easliy distracted by daydreams
-cant stand to hear people talk about things i dont wanna hear.
-dont like to be touched-
-very goofy and silly and happy at times
-but also very deppressed and feel like no one loves me or i will never make it or amount to anything in the world.
-short term memry loss due to distractions.
-prefer a world of fantasy in my head than listening to people. ie: teachers, parents,
-sometimes very social but other times like to stay to myself and think.
-put aside time in my day to lay down and daydream till i sleep.
-hate to be looked at.
-hate complimints b/c it shows people are looking at me and i also feel they r being fake and trying to make me feel better.
-stubborn
-but also nice and gullable and giving..
-all around i just feel i am a little too versatile..like if i take those personality tests or job tests....i am both.......i am nice but mean.
i wanna be one thing but also sometimes the total opposite...
when i take those test jobs give you i am sometimes concidered a lier b/c sometimes i feel this way but i also feel another way....
-very sensative and feel like no one likes me and i feel someone is talking about me i get a huge attitude and seclude myself from coworkers even if they didnt say anything.
sorry so much.......
i dont have suicidal thoughts even though a couple times in my life i have....but b/c of emotional everload.....i dont hear voices...i mostly keep to myself unless i feel comfortqable with people...i used to be shy but i have opened up more.... but still have shy times....

Can't say if you're depressed or not, but I know that at least seven of the things you listed are true for me too, on and off, so at least you're not all alone.

If you feel you need help you should talk to your parents, a teacher, a counselor or something of the sort. Perhaps a doctor. - There are some official online tests that are the same as doctors would use to determine a possible depression (i.e; MADRS) Perhaps you could talk to your physician about it? Depends on who you feel you can talk to about it.

Also, when you feel down, try to distract yourself by doing something that you enjoy (exercise, music etc).

Hope you'll find someone and something that helps
