Answers:
u can be happy by making a conscious decision to be happy!. everyday tell urself y ure glad ure alive, give urself something to look forward to each day!. open up to ur parents and friends because a problem shared is a problem halved!. and having good personal relationships decreases depression!. find things u love to do!. experiment!. join a sport and even if u dont make SURE u exercise somehow it really does make u happier! get a hobby or start learning a musical instrument!. join a club like girl guides all these things add to your life!.
but remember 13 is a difficult age!. always remember u will be happy again and there ARE people who love u!. and u r not alone in ur depression!. millions are down!. i have thought before i was depressed but i have been able to take control of it!. to tell u the honest truth just about everyone, no matter how happy and peaceful and perfect their lives look, are hiding problems! seriously! so many girls i once envied have told me secrets that have completely transformed them in my eyes!! take no personal offence, but i believe depression is laziness!. if u want to be happy u can be! seriously! if u cant make urself happy make someone else happy, and see what happens in ur own heart ;)
do not cut!. that is not an effective method for dealing with depression it will only worsen it! and if ur classmates find out that will be terrible!
find someone u can talk to!. not necessarily about all this just to TALK!. someone mature and trustworthy so u can always have someone there for u!. an aunt!? a grandmother!? teacher!? older cousin!? next door neighbour!?
i wish u luck and happiness!.
yoga helps u relax! really! and i want to stress how NORMAL these feelings are!. for me, realizing depression was just a stage EVERYONE can and does go thru especially at my age, made me feel so much better!. accept ur sadness!. then just try to be happier and remember life is a gift!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
