Depression..anger..?!
Question: Latly, life just seems like its not worth living anymore..Ive just been depressed and angry most of my life. I hate pretty much everyone at my school, my parents seem to hate me even though they say they dont..(I say bull to what they say, behind their backs anyway) Both my school and parents just tick me off which eventually leeds me into depression. Things just dont seem to go well for me, just the opisite of it, no matter what it is, school, parents, "friends" if thats what you call them >:I All they do is tick me off most of the time as well, only rarly do I have a good laugh with them. I just wish sometimes, that ill be outside and just somehow ill get killed by somone/somthing so I dont have to do it myself. (I consider it sometimes..) I just really want to be removed from life sometimes..All things just go wrong for me, family ticks me off, friends tick me off, school ticks me off. this all leads to depression. Anyone suggestions on what to do?

My counselor said that a lot of the time depression is just anger directed inward. So the two things you are feeling may be related.
It sounds like this is deep enough that you will have real trouble digging yourself out by yourself, so I would suggest you talk to a school counselor or try to find a therapist that could help you assess your feelings and give you some good ideas of how to feel better.
It sounds like you may have clinical depression. I would strongly suggest you talk to a psychologist and psychiatrist.
if you do not have enough seratonin it can lead to depression.. however if your seratonin drops far enough it can change from sadness to self hate. if it drops still further that self hate becomes hatred of everything around you.
Anger is depression too--you do need to talk to your parents, ask them if they could listen to you without interrupting and explain them how you really feel--about school, about your friends--and that you don't even know what ticks you off---it sounds to me like you seriously need some help, and unfortunately only your parents can provide that at this time by calling the professionals.....
hi, i know how you feel, depression sucks. i think i am kind of getting out of it but sometimes i fall again. it's like if there is nothing in life to look forward to. i don't take medication or anything like that. i just hold all this anger inside sometimes the pain goes away but when it comes back it worst. however, something in me keeps pushing me forward. i dream of a better life, i look forward to a better future. i know that hopefully i'll stop feeling this way soon. if you need anyone to talk to you can tell me anything if you want, i think i can help.
A couple of things spring to mind - firstly what is your behaviour that is triggering others to 'tick you off'? Secondly that it would probably be advisable to talk this through with someone, who is likely to be understanding and possibly not in your social circle.
Some schools and colleges have counsellors who may help, otherwise your GP is likely to be your main ally, so that she/he can understand what's up, and connect you with any services that are appropriate. All GP contact is confidential, and you could visit alone.
After reflecting on any of your behaviour that is triggering the tickings off, work out and implement some changes that would reduce these, and thus lessen the strain that you're facing.
If you have any friends that are closer than the others, maybe talk things through with them too. Perhaps suggest things that you'd enjoy doing, particularly not alone. Let them know that you appreciate them too, and you may well find that they will let you know how much they like you. Don't push or stress yourself too much, and work out how you could treat yourself, so that life's not just one negative battle. Accepting and loving yourself may be a great starting point, in order to get things to improve. But, don't forget the specialists that are paid to look after your wellbeing! You have a right to be helped.
Emotional wellbeing is also helped with exercise, so aim to ensure that you keep active too.
Hope these thoughts help - look after yourself and good luck! Rob
