Next, is don't convince yourself you deserve to feel this way, or as equally bad, you don't deserve to feel this way. No one deserves to have a constant weight on their shoulders or have a rain cloud always reminding them that they aren't able to enjoy life like they should. it's not any better to be told that you don't deserve to feel something that is our of your control. I've been their and believe me it makes you feel even worst. if anyone tells you that you don't deserve to be upset about yourself or your life, they too need some help. Just because you have nice clothes, or a beautiful house, or your parents are still together does not give mean that you were given a pass that states you are excluded from uncontrollable mental illnesses. Lastly, talk to me. i am always in the mood to listen and I'll always try to help you overcome whatever you're going through. my kik is julia.bielewicz , just ask for my number if you want it. You are a beautiful person and you're very brave for having the guts to want to overcome this and I hope you solve all the problems in your life and you're the happiest you've ever been because everyone deserves that. talk to me if you ever need
Third, is to understand that not everyone knows how to help. Maybe your best friend has a big house and a happy family and a smile that's always on her face so she won't know how to help. she won't know because she's never dealt with this and shes never felt this way. But that doesn't mean she doesn't care. i have the worst tendency to push everyone out of my life when I need them and DO NO DO THAT OKAY?? LET PEOPLE IN AND TRUST PEOPLE AND LET PEOPLE HELP YOU!!!! next is to not let what you're feeling get out of hand or take the best of you. I don't know what you're feeling but I'm sure it's not too great. don't let it tell you that you need to harm yourself in any way or that you don't deserve the life you were given. you are able to handle what life throws at you and you deserve to be happy and fall in love with not only others but yourself!! next is don't let how you're feeling right now define your future. Let's say your favorite sport is tennis and right now your entire tennis team is preparing for tryouts in March. but currently, you don't find joy in playing tennis. PLEASE DO IT ANYWAY. You never know where you'll be in six months so don't give up on everything that used to make you happy okay? go out and live your life and be the happiest person around!!! Also, don't just lay in bed and isolate yourself. doing that will only assure you of how miserable and alone you feel, trust me I know. Don't shut everyone out. if your friends ask you to see a movie, go see that movie!!! it doesn't matter if you feel like crying all day long, chances are you'll forget about what you're feeling and just enjoy being out and having fun! if your crush asks you to go ice skating, you better go ice skating!!
I think I might be depressed. I've looked up symptoms, and I have several. I just am unhappy with everything I used to enjoy. How can I get better?
(ok apparently my answer was way too fucking long so I'm going to have to answer this in a couple parts to give you my full answer) (ok apparently my answer was way too fucking long so I'm going to have to answer this in a couple parts to give you my full answer) i think the first thing you should do is tell somebody. i am the biggest advocator of telling your parents, a school counselor, or anyone like that. dealing with this is so much easier when you aren't alone. i know that telling someone is super scary but once you come clean about what you're feeling right now, the hardest part will already be over. be sure to explain why you think you're feeling like this and when you started feeling like this. most parents or community members will have no idea that you're feeling this way if you don't speak up. asking for help doesn't show weakness, it builds up strength. Next is to talk to your friends about it. everyone gets really down in the dumps sometimes and it's usually easier to talk to someone that understands.
Tbh: I don't think I've ever actually met you but you are sooo super gorgeous and your smile is like perfect, I hope that doesn't sound too weird coming from someone you don't know lol but you seem cool & nice & you're friends with some of my friends so maybe we will hangout at some point in life
