Question Posted Wednesday October 19 2005, 11:25 pm
13/f. I'm so depressed. I feel like everything is declining. All I can do is remember "the good ol' days." My best friend just broke up with me that I had since kindergarten. Now at school, I'm completely friendless since she moved to Chile.
My choir used to be so great, but now, everyone has lost commitment, and all the best pieces have been "pulled." The younger choirs are now much more recognized, since the older choirs won't practice. This is a very prestigious choir...we performed at St. Peter's Basilica, and Carnegie Hall! But now, it has gone to dust. :( My mother is not the way she used to be, ever since she was framed at work. She has major depression. she's not fun anymore. Even the United States isn't in good shape right now, with troops in Iraq and forests being sliced apart for firewood and mountains tabletopped for coal. All I do is just remember what life was like a couple years ago, when everything was at its peak, and I just feel terrible. Can someone help me? Sorry that this is so long, but I'm lonely and need someone to talk to.
Feeling depressed, lonely and isolated is probably one of the worst feelings teenagers ever face but you have to remember that it's all physiological...if you don't let it get to you, it won't. But this is definitely easier said than done, but it's worth a try right?When you say you felt depressed a year ago, you didn’t mention what caused it, maybe it's come back. Maybe not
the exact same problem...but bad memories or maybe just the sudden change. Something's obviously on your mind, and if you don't know what it is then why not tell a friend? You'd be surprised at how much discussing your feelings
helps. Maybe if you just start with talking about what's on your mind, or what's happening in your life, I’m sure you'll pin point the problem. If you feel as if this is just a minor situation which doesn't need a councillor then just try a friend. Look around, you'd be surprised at how many people are there for you... you just need to notice.Don't hate yourself for anything. It won't achieve anything, and can make matters worse. Another way to try and solve this is to write your feelings down... a diary. Once you get into it, it's as if you have your own councillor in you. [ dhrutts's advice column | Ask dhrutts A Question ]
