I feel so Depressed...?!
Question: I feel depressed all of the time and sometimes I really want to take it out on my body. I also feel really lonely as I am a really quiet person. My family doesn't know and I don't want to tell them. I felt I could only talk to one of my friends, but she has run off with some boy and now I feel even worse! I really don't want to phone anyone, and I know I'm making this really difficult! Is there a way I can talk to someone without anyone knowing? Online maybe? Someone who is real, not some guy who who doesn't care. Someone please help!

dude i know how you feel, I have literally just got over this myself over the past few months. Whatever you do, try not to get over it alone like i did because thats a lot harder (i imagine - i didnt really get the option of other people). I still havent told my family as it is a really hard thing to do and again i would urge you to do this as it doesnt feel good to have it on your chest all the time.
as soon as you learn to open up your feelings to someone it can help a great deal, just a little bit at a time you know, until you get comfortable with telling people stuff. it seems as if you were really comfortable talking to this girl so i strongly recommend arranging to talk with her, just make it clear how much you feel that you need to talk with her but also that you understand that she has other commitments with this other boy.
if your school offers any counselling services take advantage of them as they can also help to loosen the pressures of some work whilst you get over this. (sorry if you dont go to school, i just get that vibe).
but the main thing is that you have realised your feelings and that you dont want to hurt yourself. keep that in mind. just think that whilst the imediate future may look a bit bleak, you still have the rest of your life to live be it a day or another hundred years! live life to the full and get more out of it. maybe join a club to take your mind off of things and to meet new friends - dont put off something that you could do today, because if you enjoy it you can do it again tomorrow as well.
man to man you'll get over it
if i can anyone can XD
Awwww... I'm sorry you're feeling down. You had the right idea by wanting to talk to a friend, but family is just as important. Let them know what is on your mind... after all, they can't help you unless you let them in! Don't let the fact that your friend has gotten a boy make things worse for you, just be happy for her and try to find support in other places.
Talk to as many friends and family members as possible. There are organizations and counselors to help ya out you know. Also, try searching the web for some people out there who can relate. Plus... Lol I mean c'mon you're on Yahoo... I'm sure there are some people here that would like to help ya out! =)
Depression is hard...whew. Try an annonymous group. Do a google search. Some meeting can be done via phone. It's comforting to talk out your issues with like minded people.
