why am i like this?

[WoW_GOD]

i have absoluetly no reason to be sad like this, my family is caring and loving, i've been told many times i'm a "dream boy" by girls, and i'm popular at my school. yet when i come home, i get super sad, just not caring, have to urge my self to actually do stuff, suicidal thoughts, hopelessness, pathetic, and i have no idea why : /

I feel like this all the time, people say I'm cool and fun to hang with, but I just don't see it. Maybe you have low self esteem. You should write down the good and bad stuff about you, and I'm pretty sure that the good things win over. This is shit advice, I know and I'm sorry. Btw what do you mean by "I have to urge my self to do stuff"?

I know what u mean about when you come home u start to fell down i do the same thing even though my life is pretty good. some times i wonder to why i do this to but u just got to keep thinking about the great parts of your life. also for some better advice you can be suffering from internal depression even though theirs nothing to be depressed about. and u can get medication for that to help u i know a lot of people that do it. my cousin is going through the same thing u are and takes medication for it and it seems to be working.

I want to share a few things that I was missing from my life, they may be what you are missing from your life or not... but I guess I am just going to come out and say a few things. What I have really realized lately is that I am missing joy from my life, there is a difference between happy and joy...because you can have joy when things are bad but I find it really hard to be happy when things are bad. It's a hard thing to explain...it's kind of something that you have to figure out yourself, but consider that joy may be the thing your missing.
Secondly, you may be missing the source of joy itself, God...I don't know if your religious or not...but this is just a suggestion. God has made such a difference in my life. Just my thoughts though....

when i say i have to urge myself to do stuff, i mean like even if i want to do somthing, i'll have to repeatedly tell myself to do it, thats probably just laziness though.

but yeah, i only have like 1 friend i vent to, even though she really doesn't know all of the problems i'm going through right now :(

[STAYING_STRONG4HIM]

I have a couple friends...but I know what you mean....you can't always tell them everything...i only have one friend that I can really tell everything too...

[WoW_GOD]

yeah, I CAN tell anyone and they'd be understanding but I only really open up to one person, and I don't even tell her everything. :(

[STAYING_STRONG4HIM]

At least you CAN tell anyone...I can't...it's up to this one person...if she's busy or something...then I am pretty much screwed

[WoW_GOD]

:( i'm lucky, you can pm me if you want to talk to somthing i guess :)

[cool person]

Yeah I know how you feel. One thing I have found really helpful is just writing down how you feel. It doesn't matter if it does't always make sense, I find it really helps. Also talking to other people, if not in real life..people online helps.

It's totally normal during your teenage years to feel depressed over just about nothing. It's those pesky hormones playing up again. Just remember you're not alone, and there are plenty others just like you. Looking in this thread you can see that. I also get like that sometimes and I don't always stop to think why.

There is no need to see a doctor about this, unless you actually have the mental illness of depression. In which case, you should see a doctor. However, I don't think you are suffering from depression.
