Do you think I'm depressed, or just feeling sad?!


Question: Do you think I'm depressed, or just feeling sad?
The past few months, I've been really sad. Somedays, I'd be happy and a few other days I'd just want to cry. Just today, I spent this whole day in my room and I began to cry. I'm not sure why I've been feeling like this. I think it might be from a former friend of mine. She's in many of my classes and is friends with all my other friends. I feel like I can't get away from her and I just wanna run away sometimes. She treated me like crap, and I can't stand her presence. I'm not sure if I want/could find new friends though. I try to be strong, but sometimes I just can't. I'm crying as I type this.
I also feel like there is not many people I can talk with, since all my friends are friends with her. At times I feel they value her more than me. Also when I talk to my mom, she just tells me things I already know.
Any advice? Thank you in advance.

Answers:

I feel ya. It may be for different reasons, but I'm depressed also. I cry a lot, and I'm not always sure why.

But anyway, I think you're just feeling sad.

So, it seems to be that the problem is with your friend. Well, I can't tell you much, because I don't know who she is or what she's like. But, I do know that certain thoughts have helped me through shitty times when I feel bad about conflicts with my friends and such. Just remember that you're your own person, and you don't need anyone to complete you. You are a complete person on your own, fully capable of doing things without the help of friends.

I know that's hard to accept or hear, but think about it.

As for her...try to resolve it if you want. I don't know how, because you didn't really say specifically what went on between you two. But again, if you don't/can't, don't worry too much. Things always get better. That sounds corny, but it's true. You can't have highs without lows to compare them to.

And if she's moved out of your life, don't sweat it. It happened for a reason. People come into our lives for a reason, and her part might be over. You learned something from it, though. And that's the important thing. Even if that thing is just believing in yourself more, that's something.

This isn't the most articulate answer ever, because I'm 15. But, I promise that if you remember all that you're capable of, things will turn out better. You always have yourself, no matter how many people turn on you.

And frankly, you have me. Anytime you want to talk, I'm here. Even though we just met, lol.

Well, I've got to go finish some homework.

I wish you all the best. Don't let anyone, no matter how good of a friend they were, bring you down. And I promise, things will be better.

By the way, writing this has actually helped me a bit. I've felt monumentally depressed for a while now, and it almost feels as if I'm writing this advice to myself. For that, thank you.

You've got one life: don't let anyone ruin it for you. :)

My pretentious, inexperienced, inarticulate, self-pitying self. :)



all you have to do is act strong
don't let anyone know your weakness because if they do they might use it against you and make u feel a lot more worse
and show that you care about your friendship strong way not in the way he or she could be in the upper hand

this is my personal tought



Don't worry. Everything will be okay. Friends make up a big part of our lives,but when it comes to being upset with friends, theres always a solution. Calm down take a few breaths and ask yourself, " Do I really need to cry over this? or can I just do something to make me feel better?"
You can do many things about this girl. maybe you can make friends with her, just ignore the fact that she hangs out with all of your good friends, or maybe you can tell YOUR friends how you feel.
Trust me, the same thing used to happen to me and I ended up in a hospital for depression. and about the breath thing, it does work, just calm yourself down and you will feel better :)
