Depression - Teen Support Group

i can understand why u r frustrated about that. i know some people who have depression but have had a great childhood... has any of ur family suffered from depression or just u?

I'm new to this site. I've heard about it and been here a few times in the past six months and never really did anything. But now i'm thinking maybe i should start. Maybe i'm not the person you're looking for to talk to, but then maybe i am. I can't say that i'll ever understand your situation completely or be able to help, but i do understand wanting to scream at the top of my lungs for people to stop asking "what's wrong." So hi, my name is Ashley and as corny as this sounds you aren't alone. So please, i'd like to try and help if you'll let me. i'm a pretty decent listener and maybe we can help eachother.

stop looking at the demons dragging you down and instead look at the people trying to pull you out. there's a lot more than you think.

thanks.

First of all, I love that Grr picture, lol. Second, i have felt that same sorrow before. But, just because its there doesnt mean you have to feel every bit of it. I call that pain, "The Dark Sorrow." I think its just the darkness trying to suck you back into its clutches. What you have to do is find some light deep within your heart and use that against it. Or, you could blow bubbles. I did that last time and i couldnt be any happier.

I feel the same way. I just started here, so my input isnt the best. But the only thing I find that works is listening to funny music and stuff. Nothing depressing. Beleive me, that doesn't help.

hey im bout da same way right now idk wut to say to make u feel better but im always here if u wanna tlk ok?

Hmm ditto...
I obsess over suicide every day without knowing why.

I hope you feel better soon.. and like the others said, if you need to talk im here.

Hang in there :] things'll get better!
