I guess this isn't really a question, but to see if anyone has gone through what I am going through now.
You see I seem to be getting more and more depressed lately.
I just feel so alone. I have friends, but I don't have like a super close friend who is always there for me. I don't have a boyfriend. The guy that I have liked since seventh grade is now practically dating this amazingly pretty girl who seems to have everything. It just hurts so bad because for some reason I thought that he had feelings for me. It makes me feel like I am not good enough, or pretty enough.
I don't think people know what I am going through. I live in a nice home, my parents have good jobs, and I get good grades.
People don't understand that every night I turn up my music (so my family won't here me) and just cry.
I don't know if I should talk to my mom about going to counseling. But, you see, I've went to counseling before when I was younger because I was sexually harassed, and I know that if I talk to my mom about counseling she will think that its about that and really isn't.
Anyway... I am kind of babbling on... so I'll end it here. Any input would be great. (link)
I have been in the same position as you since I was 14 and I'm 17 now so...yeah. I'm still sortof depressed. Ah who am I kidding, I'm still very depressed.

However, it does get better. I've found myself and I feel more sure of myself. Looks aren't the reason for my depression anymore. 15 is an extremely difficult age. Don't even get me started on how much I hate 14 and 15. It's an awful, unsure, stupid, pointless age. I never felt like I was a part of the world and no one was ever interested in me.

But it got better. I found what made me happy and you will too. Be on the lookout for new guys to distract you, maybe even get a job as a distraction. I always wanted counseling also, but never got it. It does help to spill your guts to someone so maybe it isn't a bad idea.

Just remember that there is a light at the end of the damned teenage tunnel.
