statistically speaking the 15-30 age group is one of the highestpercentage of people suffering depression. the other is old age round the retirement ages.so yes it's common and you need to talk to someone because it's not healthy.

not most, but many. It is common, but I wouldn't say normal - you should get help for this because it is possible for you to learn how to feel more satisfied with your life.

Yes. Depression doesn't have a prefference as to how old you are. it is what is happening in your life thart determines the depressive state you are in.

Not on a daily basis, no. Everyone gets depressed sometimes but if it's every day, you need to talk to a professional about this. Most people find that they're helped by short-term counseling, but others respond better to medication.

The sooner you go in, the better. You don't have to live your life unhappy. Hang in there!

Anyone can suffer from depression, it doesn't matter how old you are.

i cant say that your weird if your suffering from depression, but you should try to do something that makes you cheer up. depression can lead to suicide, drug taking and etc. happiness is the best medicine for sickness. think why are you depressed? did your girlfriend leave you? try being happy

No. Is it truely depression or is it something you just went through?? Its also important for you to make a choice to not feel down. And ask yrself why you are feeling the way you do. If its external reasons or other people, remove yrself from things or people or situations that make you feel this way. Just think positively. You are at a fantastic time in your life. I wish I was 20 again!! Have fun, enjoy life. Make the necessary changes to ensure that you are happy. And it is fine to be selfish when it comes to yr needs in order to be happy. You dont have to be depressed or unhappy, you have yr whole life ahead of you and you have NOW to be happy. You can do it!!

yes, see a doctor

im 20 n i do relly bad, i cry, cut and think about suicide but my friend is helping me get help you should find a friend and go to a dr. just to make sure your ok. i feel better now that i told my friend and i know that im gonna get some kind of help i hope things get better n work out for you

Depression affects many different people in many different age ranges. If you do suffer from depression, you are not alone. It is not something people like to talk about, but it is definetly something thats out there.

Babe... you don't have to be a certan age to be depressed!!
It can be something you are going through, or just the way your life is right now.
Alot of people are..just don't let it take over your life!
I have had the same problem..only am older..Everyone needs help sometimes!
Just go and talk to someone..and see if it helps!
It doesn't have to be a shrink,..a counselor, or a really good friend whatever.
Just take care of yourself...you are a great person..!
