Question: Does This Sound Like Depression Symptoms!?
Alright I have been noticing ever since I gained weight, and became over weight my self esteem has gone down!. I get constantly taunted and teased about my weight!. Last year, there was a rumor going around that i was pregnant, because my FAT stomach is like round so it does look like i'm 3 months pregnant!. but I sometimes find myself more, defensive about stuff then i was before I was taunted!. I sometime s find my self in my room crying, because I was thinking about how my life is and how people treat me badly!. Then In May of this year, it got really bad when my grandfather died!. I felt like not living, but I didnt do anything because my best friend Taylor helped me through it but i so wanted to kill myself or at least hurt myself!. I feel left out!. I mean I have never had more like 2 people at my birthday parties, I'm never invited to parties, I have like 4 friends, and people make fun of me because of my weight and my parents money problems!. So basically I feel like i don't belong here, I often feel sad and isolated, and i often compare myself to others and i wish i was them because they have "the look and life"!. Please help!. also these symptoms get extremely bad a week before my period starts!. Please help, also please don't suggest medicine, because I and my parents can't afford it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
