Hi, Camm!

I'm Zak.
I had depression all through highschool. If you want to talk about it, feel free to Private Message me any time!

I feel the same way, the only way to be happy is to create a fake life through lies, talk to me anytime, it would help both of us.

I do that quite abit, but noone ever asks me anything seriously. So I lie over small things for no reason. I'd like to talk to you, PM me anytime.

Anti-depressants are simply drugs, and there are many drugs designed to make a person feel good, unfortunately, most of those drugs are addictive. I would say all are, as people become dependent on the drug/medication for happiness.

Medication can not "choose" what you think about, it alters it. So does willpower. The same willpower enabling people to exercise to lose weight, or to even fast from all food for many days. Just as the brain is the largest "sex organ" (as they say), it is also the best organ to fight depression. Instead of using drugs to alter bad thoughts, start out with good thoughts! Thoughts of goals, futures, solutions, faith in God, etc. And, crying is ok, there are such things as tears of joy!

What matters after you die? Focus on that, and you will always have a reason to hope and be happy for a future. If nothing matters after death, then "happy" people are simply fooling themselves about what's coming. If you think suicide is an option, I recommend you start off with a 40 day water fast. Then, if you still wish to pass this life up, make it longer! No other way can a person express their anguish, and sometimes it is just being able to express yourself in that way that you will gain hope. And...you will never have such an appreciation for food : ) Maybe you'll start dreaming of new recipes, and become a famous chef : ] Have faith in God and follow Christ, God's promises are truth and you don't need to lie to feel better, because it is that hope that grows stronger every day as the hope of the world fades. And, dedication to God can help you overcome any destructive habits in your life directly causing depression/image/physical issues, such as drugs, smoking, binge-eating, etc.

Hiya,

I recommend you tell your family doctor. I was highly emotional from birth on and it kept getting worse. I have a chemical imbalance that that causes me to "lose control". A more severe form of this is called bi-polar, and bi-polar people do tend to compulsively lie, not sure why that is.

This may not be you. It might be that being a teenager your hormones are raging and so is the stress put upon you. A counsellor can help you with these things. A school counsellor is trained to deal with emotional issues and can lead you in the right direction to get help.

About the God talk, don't get me wrong I am a spiritual person and have personally experienced the Divine, but you must take charge of your life. That is why we were given free will. I must admit during those trying teenage years I did turn to God but it did not cure the problem, however it helped me get through it without killing myself. If this is something you can lean on, then that's great, but a crutch will not heal you.

I'm proud of you for speaking out and asking for help, that was the right first step. I love you, I want you to know that, You are loved!

i just started going through this, first year of highschool and i feel neglected by everyone, ive been trying to find a girlfriend to help me but all 3 have cheated on me, nobody wants to talk to me about this, im a mess

please help someone

High school is an incredibly hard time for a lot of people; I know it was for me. A lot of it is probably directly caused by the drastic changes your body and mentality are going through during that time. Your hormones are out of control and so it is hard to maintain your normal, rational thoughts.

I know it won't seem like I understand because I'm not you, but I do understand. I'm not that much older than you are now. You are in your first year of high school and everyone is just starting to mature and grow. Teenagers are attracted to damn near every person they see (again, largely due to the hormones).

It's important that you realize your problems are real, but also very normal. In a few years time, you will be able to look back and understand why what you felt and thought was irrational. However, take it from experience; deal with your problems now.

Kids in High School can be very mean, but what they say and do to you is not so much ABOUT you as it is just TO you. They simply need someone to pressure and insult to make themselves feel better. Do not let pressures from other people alter the way you feel about yourself, because these things will fester within you for the rest of your life.

Just keep in mind that there are thousands of kids just like you right now thinking the same things and feeling the same way. Eventually they will all get through it, and so will you.
