heyy. i was looking through some stuff & found ur site.& i needed advice..
i manage to get mad at people very easily-if they mess w/ my friends. ive even gone after a few people, but ive only hit them..and i had a girl, who doesnt ever talk to me & does not know me at all call me phsyco..so what do you think? =/ (link)
If this girl doesn't know you, and doesn't ever talk to you, then how could you possibly see anything valid in her opinion of you? She doesn't know you. If anything you're psycho for thinking that a stranger has any say in who you are. If you stick up for your friends, you're awesome. I do that too... just make sure that the people really deserve what you do to them. Like, I beat up people for sticking their hands down my friend's pants in a wave pool at the water park, not for calling her names.

If anything, I would suggest thinking things through, and making sure that you're not overacting. And please- don't take strangers who don't know you so seriously when they tell you things like that. Chances are, they're just assholes.


Okay, i pretend to be a really happy person, but i am veryyy depressed. Or, well thats what the quizes say. I normally wont buy it, but they say its serious depression & i need help A.S.A.P. but problem is...i dont really have a doctor. And i told my brother one time and he got pissed off. I am afriad to tell anyone now becuase i am afriad they will get mad )= i know it sounds stupid but thats how i feel! And i need help. So if i tell a doctor, they'll subsrice me some pills and will tell my family. Does anyone know how to cure depression without anyone knowing? And please dont say stuff like, Spend time with the fam. becuase there one of the reasons of my depression.


Thanks =D (link)
Hey... as a person who recently just "got over" depression, I suppose I could offer some advice. In order to do that, though, I'd have to tell you a lot about myself... so I hope you're ready to read ^^;

I was depressed for a very long time... and I mean a VERY long time. And yes, my family was part of the reason too. I was always afraid to tell anyone, because whenever I cried when I was little, my parents would yell at me... it just annoyed them. So, I learned to bottle it up and have random moments where I would punch a tree, or wait until my family was out of the house (which became more and more often) to break down and scream and cry until I threw up or passed out. Honestly though, the only thing that made me get any kind of treatment was the fact that I tried to kill myself, and one of my few friends decided to cal my parents so they could drive me to the emergency room. BTW, if you ever try to kill yourself, don't take chemicals- it only fucks with your stomach ^^;.

Anyways, so after 10 days in the hospital, going to sessions and whatnot, I still felt like shit. They sent me home and put me on prozac, and you know what, I fetl worse. And I tried to kill myself again. And again. And again. Eventually they upped the dosage so much that I became a zombie, and I couldn't really react to anything even though in the back of my mind I was still screaming and crying like I always had.

So, enough said- Medicine's don't work. What does work- figuring your life out. Find out what makes you depressed, and get rid of it. I got a job, I started hanging out with friends, I started painting and drawing again. And when I got my license if I didn't feel like going to school, I didn't. I went to the local state park and sat on a tree hanging over the Eno River and read all day.

Sometimes, you just have to take things into your own hands, and notice that if your life isn't worth living, then you should do what you can to change it. Instead of looking at yourself as a victim of the world, maybe notice that you're also a victim of yourself (even if the world has made you into the person you are). To tell you the truth, I still get sad. Even right now I can't sleep because I started crying when I last tried to... but sometimes life just does that to you. However, I have stopped taking prozac, and I feel much better without it.

To some this whole thing up: getting over your depression is up to you. Think of what you like to do. Get out, open your eyes as wide as you can, stare at the shapes in the clouds, and breath. Cuz yes, life may suck. But you can always do your part to make it a little bit easier on yourself, or at least get some fulfillment out of something that you do so that until the time comes when you can be happy again, you at least feel somewhat useful. If it wasn't for a 6 year old named Eleanor, I might not have learned that.
