Emotional help anyone?!

Seems like your just going through a low. Unless you are having suicidal thoughts or thoughts of self-harm it' not really considered depression. You just need to snap out of this mood. Put your favorite song as your alarm tone, don't procrastinate, and make sure you feel ready for the day when you wake up (get enough sleep). I've noticed that these methods help a lot. This has happened to me a lot and anxiety and depression run in my family and as it turns out I have it too (o_o;). Don't go see a therapist (I honestly think that talking it out only brings annoyance), but you can try medication if you think it's at that point. I haven't tried meds yet and it sounds crazy, but I'm going to be trying them soon just see if they really make a difference. I wish you the best of luck and hope that all begins to go well.

personal experiences

If you had diabetes, you'd see a specialist for that disorder.
The specialist for depression is a psychiatrist. if it runs in your family you are more prone to also having it. it is a chemical imbalance and there are medications for it.
You may just be going through a tough time--and NOT be clinically depressed at all

I know EXACTLY what you mean. I have always been MORE than happy, in fact maybe TOO happy my whole life. Im 18 (just started college) and lately ive been starting to be mad at the world, and feel all depressed and stuff. I am not antisocial at all, and have alot of friends, but Part of it is that i just HATE PEOPLE haha. I know that you and me are probably WAY different, But all I can say is that, I have ALWAYS been a very strong person (mentally), and have always been able to overcome ANY feeling i have ever felt (which I know nearly NO ONE can do) and what I do is seriously, every time i would start to get sad/mad, i let it all out, then i tell myself "look what you have." Im healthy, I have a loving family, I have a bunch of surfboards, im going to college,I LIVE IN HAWAII!! . I just tell myself that there are people out there that dont have ANY of the things I have, will never have the opportunities that I have, and on top of that dont even have a family that loves them. I dont know how mentally strong you are compared to me, but the main advice I have for you is exactly what everyone else is gonna tell you, except you REALLY have to THINK ABOUT IT, deeply. I dont know your situation, but you should be happy that youre alive, and look on the bright side. And watching the sunrise helps alot too =). And Im a guy, (dont know about you) and it helps ALOT to IGNORE GIRLS (opposite for a girl). THEY ONLY ARE HEADACHES XD haha. Im 18 and never had a real girlfriend, and I think thats why ive been able to be happy for so long!
