Is this normal?

[Brodie2000]

I've been going through puberty for around about a year, Im 13 now. Past month I have been really depressed and everyone has noticed Im not myself, I dont even know what to do. I feel down and upset everyday and I only have few people that can help me with my problems including the girl I have had feelings for for the past 2 years and I dont want her worrying about me off all people. Can I please have some help? I feel really down even though I do have alot of friends I feel like Im hated even the smallest crap can hurt, (words). Stuff like that. thaknyou.

Hey man, that's just how puberty is, sadly. You're body is going through hormonal changes and one of the many things affected is your mood.

The only thing I can say is try not to let it get you down. Do some sports or outdoor activities... stuff that will get your blood pumping and release endorphins; the happy hormone!

Releasing endorphins by doing activities will really improve your mood! ^_^

Sadly, moody and teenager seem to go together hand in hand. It's mainly due to the fact that our bodies are physically changing so much and it is hard with all the hormones going around in our bodies. You are not alone in these feelings. Bugen4 is right, that when you feel you're getting down, try and find something to do to release that tension. Run, scream, use a pillow as a punch bag - you will feel better if you just let it all out in a harmless way.

Dude sometimes I feel the same way. I live just with my DAD and my bro. Mom left us ages ago. So Im the big bro, and I have too many thing 2 do and take care my bro. I feel like this is no sense I don't need at this age this responsibilities and hitting puberty (no yet) and being gay still closeted so...I hope things will turn around better.

Everybody here is totally right. I actually just went through the same emotional mud-pit you went through, and it's just puberty and the world around us, yanno? You go through that point in life where you feel like you need to have people accept you, or else nobody wants to look at you again. The things enemies say seem to be the popular opinion when the people who love you have it right, but it sounds wrong. Even your own conscience is saying "You know what? YOU don't matter, everybody else does!"
It's messed up, I know, and you don't want anybody to know about it, but if you really do want to talk, just let it out. It'll be a relief. If you really, really don't want to talk to someone, then just remember to try to find the good in things. It's hard, but it just takes determination. :hug3:
Once it's out of your system, just keep up a happy perspective.:sun: And just remember, stay cool! :penguin: :)

I can relate. All my friends gave up on me so I'm all by myself really. It's fine, I don't even need anybody else anyway.
