depression
hey im 15 f, are most teenage girls out there depressed? is it just a faze we go through or is it just certain individuals that are insane.. its not like i have had a hard life but i am always sad and pessimistic about everything. i feel like i dont deserve anything and no one likes me. i have been diagnosed with 'anorexia' i think they are wrong tho, i am a heavy drinker and i smoke pot often, and people are starting to notice the scars on my arms and wrists from cutting.. i put on a front when i with people but when i am by myself all i can think about is death.. i dont know why i am like this i dont have a reason to be, i was just wondering does anyone else feel this way!?

Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Mental health?
A lot of times it's just a phase..but then again there are teenagers out there who have reasons to be depressed (not that its good) and who have had difficult pasts and are still trying to get over them.
I feel the same exact way. When I'm with my friends I can be sooo happy and stuff. But then when I'm alone I'll cut, steal (stuff from stores), and all I could think about it death/suicide (not saying Im suicidal, I just think about it)..and hurting myself.
You may want to talk to someone about it. Yes I know, you probably don't want to, but I mean it's amazing how certain people can drag you out of the emotional bubbles around you. It's happened to me before. I mean that's why when I'm around people I feel a little better if we have serious conversations, but then again sometimes I'll feel sooo incredibly lonely no matter who I'm around. I could be around my best friends in the world and my relatives and still feel this empty hole inside of me, and it doesn't go away. If it does it comes back most times...
But there's a lot more people like this then you think, so try talking to someone who you trust and who you know won't judge you.
I really hope I helped. Don't worry if you take care of yourself and confide in someone or find someway to get your mind off if it, you'll be fine.
good luck..

Aww Hun, This is going to be a hard question to answer, but I want to help. 1. You need to stop smoking pot/ drinking it won't get you anywhere,
+ If you were diagnosed with anorexia, (which they are probably right about) Smoking and Drinking can really screw up your heart, and You can die. Cutting is very hard to get over to but you really need to help yourslef in this situation, no one deserves this to happen to them, so don;t be so down on yourself, NO ONE DESERVES TO DIE!!
Please IM me If you need Anything *ITSALLKAITLYN*
I hope I helped..<kaitlyn>

I know exactley how you feel, alot of teens are depressed now a days. Not just girls, but guys too..Smoking Pot and drinking could be a problem and that could be why your depressed, it brings you down when your not on it because your body feels great when its on it..and comming down feels like crap so you want MORE AND MORE. Anorexia is hard to deal with you should talk to someone about it..and the cutting could lead to alot worse like suicide, exspecially if you think about death.

well when you do pot or any type of drugs and you dont have it alot then you go through a depression, because your body feels like there is nothing to live for! sooo if i were you i would talk to someone about this! and as hard as it seems you realy do need help or else this could result to hurting yourself badly or death! please take my advise and talk to someone about this! hope i helped!

Yes, there are teens who feel depressed a few times in their lives, but not to the point of cutting, its more like a crappy mood phase. But you're definetly depressed, you abuse the use of drugs as a cry for help, and I think you should try getting some help by going on into rehab and getting on some anti depressants, it would be better than the life you're living now, and yes, your life is hard because you're using drugs. Please get yourself some help, if you anted out of this mess you would do something about it.

Most teenagers go through it; it's not just you. I'd advise you to stop cutting, though - it can land you in a mental institution and really do you want to be there? Oh and another piece of advise (you don't have to take it, lol) stop smoking pot and try to stop drinking.. it'll probably help. hope i helped you

i think at one point in every girls life she feel like she doesnt belong or no one likes her. but im pretty sure its a faze. but your into drugs and cutting i think you need to tell someone about your problem. maybe a guidence counsler or a therapist. their there to help you. i think you should see help before thinking this is a faze and you will grow out of it. i hope things work out. ♥

Everyone suffers from depression sometime in there life. its normal for people your age to suffer depression, try and talk to a friend or a member of the family about it, to see if they can help, or go and get councilling, see if that helps.

I do feel that way sometimes except i dont drink, smoke pot, cut, or have anorexia. There are a lot of people who suffer from depression but depression doesnt make you smoke pot or drink, those are your decisions that you make. Smokeing and drinking wont solve yoru depression so you might wnat to quit. Talk to a counselor in your school about this and i'm sure she'll be able to help. I heard of someone who suffers from depression and the person has to take medicine to make them calmer. Good Luck.

Ok, for one you need to take it slow with the smokeing pot thing and everything I mean its your life but yeah...A bunch of teenagers are depressed but it doesnt mean that they have depression, it could just be a faze because if you think that you seriously are depressed then go to the doctor and he will know what to do if you are a depressed person and if you are then the doctor can give you something for it and then the problem will be solved, but another reason why you are prob depressed is maybe because pot makes you sometimes think about stuff like and makes you feel bad and then other kinds of pot just makes you chill, there are different kinds so that could be one reason...also most kids our age cut theirselfs because they think it will solve their problems but it doesnt, it may make you feel good and everything but is it worth haveing scars all of your life?...Well anyways just try talking to your parents about it and if they dont listen then talk to someone else about it because if you do have "anorexia" and you cut, and drink and all this and your only 15, thats very bad, but just try to slow things down like by not doing all the drugs and drinking or you will end up in a rehab or end up being a drugie or a drunk and your 15 and its messing up your life you need to get help a/s/a/p!, I hope this helps! If you need anything else just ask!-Nikki

I would like to recommend that you go about getting help promptly.
Your depression is most likely the result of a chemical imbalance... seratonin or whatever. Well, what is any emotion? I don't like the idea of using chemicals to change someone's personality, but when you're obsessed with death, using drugs, and cutting... it's time for happy pills. Try it.
Now, to actually answer your question, yes. Probably a great many people, most of which either end up dying or getting aforementioned help. Trying the latter first would probably be the best idea.

Girls, yes do suffer from depression but not as severe as the one you have. Girls often worry about their wieght, their appearnece overall, and if their popular enough, why they dont have as many boyfriends etc. But there are girls (like yourslef) who take all the worrying to the next level by anoerexia, cutting, etc. It's normal to have these thoughts and feelings, you are depressed. Most heavy drinkers and drug users tend to get smaller because they dont eat. You need to get help and thats all there is to it. Sure it will suck having to go to doctors, and rehab..and all the crap it takes to get yourself out of your situation. But in the end, you'll feel 100 times as better. You are a normal teenage girl, with normal teenage worrys and thoughts..except you've decided to cut. I hope you get better! Please update me if you can=)
