I'm very depressed about life?!
Question: Hello, im 15 and very depressed about life in general. i have lost most of the enjoyment out of things that i used to love. i no longer really see any point in life. im not very attractive so i dont have a girlfriend and feel worthless. im pretty shy and try to avoid any social situation that would put me in the spot light. i dont think i would commit suicide just because im scared that theres no existence after death. i haven't talked to my parents about it because i feel very embarrassed. i dont know what i should do, i just want to feel confident about my life so i can focus on more things than this.

I hope you have a Mac Bronzi because Bill Gates going to take back his copy of Windows.
Listen. We are all like this at some point between 15 and 20+ it's life. Life sucks sometimes especially these days! But we need to be strong and brave and look the world in the face then kick it in the nuts and do whatever it takes to be better then we were yesterday. It's possible, belive me I know. I was worse at 15. Thinking about suicide and knowing deep down in my soul that I was always going to be alone and broke and without love. Life has a way of turning things around when you least expect it. It may not happen tomorrow but it will happen and if you are not afraid and are willing to take a chance once in a while, even a crazy chance, the change will come sooner for you. Today I'm married and own a home and a even have a cute puppy! (Working on kids.) If a skinny dork like me can do it, you will be fine, just remember never ever give up hope because your time will come..it will, I promise you this.
it just gets worse and harder to talk to concentrate and whatnot.
you need to solve it NOW before things get worse. and they will get worse.
The bad that your experiencing now will only amplify the good moments that are yet to come.
Remember, plain bread tastes better to a starving child than it does to a glutton. Your experiences now will only make you appreciate your future more than the average person. And lets be honest- its when people cannot appreciate life that their purpose is truly lost.
BAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWW, get a hobby or something kid.
i know exactly how you feel! i have no ******* idea! ive talked to some friends that jsut made things worse and i hate pain and think theres nothing after death so i would never kill myself. but just know your not the only one
Woah... sounds like I am talking to myself... I don't do what I love either =[ (skateboarding) I often think of a situation of giving up my life for others. I am an atheist, and have not told my mom... well... I guess it's maturity...
but, I guess go to a counselor
I would never go to one though...
wow, you're only 15, you shouldn't be feeling like this. This sounds like clinical depression, which is def. something you should talk to your parents about, or some other trusted adult. Please don't go through life feeling like this, it's not worth it-you are a valuable person! Please get to the doctor and get it checked out!
The same thing has happened to my friend, i cant quite say that i know the feeling, but she got into a hobby. She really likes to do all these physical things with working out. She takes all her anger out on sports and competition i guess. It has helped her though. And dont be afraid to talk to your parents, they will understand. I bet you will feel relieved when you get it off your chest.
How about "going across the street"
i have the exact same problem right now...... all i can say is your not alone!!!!
I was about your age when I started experiencing that. Let me tell you, there is help...and you better get some now because it only gets worse! By the time I was 19 I didn't care if I lived or died anymore. Age 20 I got help, I'm now 23 and on medication and feel so much better! I never thought I'd feel happy again... Please get help now!
ok u shouldn't feel that way. Ok where ever u are I felt the same way goin to this dance with my frend that I really like and we went together and ended up goin out. Ok that not the point. My point is you do not need to look good or be popular to be awesome you just need to be ur self. Someday u will find someone so great and they will like u to because of a great personality u have. IDK. U should always put in ur mind don't judge the book by its cover.
Taylor,
You are going through the normal teenage angst. First of all, you do not have to look like Brad Pit in order to have a beautiful woman. Success will do just as well. Since you are planning to live, take this time to ramp up for things that really will be important. Focus on the future, focus on success. You don't like parties, postpone them until you get into college and learn all you can, NOW. Get smart. There's an old saying, "Whatever thou decides to do, do thy doggonest." Remember one example: Bill Gates is a physically ugly man, but people forget that because he's the richest man in the world.
Good Luck and remember a swan is an ugly duckling.
well it sounds like you have clinical depression. go to your school counsler and get some help I have the same thing trust me it will help alot
Hey you should check out suicideforum.com. Its a very nice forum with great people to help you feel better:)
btw, suicide forum is strictly pro-life
You already have the motivation to get better - now you just need to find the right professionals to help you out a bit. I know it can be embarrassing, especially since you're a guy and depression might seem like a weakness. But you'd be surprised - many, many people suffer from depression (especially teenagers), and there are plenty of sources out there that can help you, such as dozens of medications and therapists and whatnot. You're not alone. I've been there, and if you don't do anything about it now, you'll sink lower and lower into your depression until you break. I suggest first choosing the parent that you feel most comfortable with, and explaining your situation. Parents are usually prepared for that type of occurence, especially during the teenage years when your hormones are out of control and your body is going through numerous changes. If you get the help you need, your life can become so much better. There IS beauty in life, and there are so many great things to do out there. You just need the extra push to get you going back on track! Don't give up on yourself. Hang in there! <3
Taylor honey u r still young u have ur whole life to forward too. I myself was once upon a time what u would call the "ugly duckling" out of my 4 pretty sisters. My advice to u is to keep living stay positive about urself and just like me u will grow out of this phase. Just because u don't have a girlfriend doesn't make u unattractive, some girls my not know how to approach u and are afraid of ur reaction to them.
U need to come out of this shy stage of ur life and try to become more involved with school activties and social groups. This will help you to become satisified with your status in life.
Suicide should not even be one your mind, do you know how many people lives you will change if u take ur own life, not good at all.
There is nothing embarrassing about your situation, Your parents love you dearly and it would crush them if you held these type of feelings in. Go to ur parents and talk with them they are there to support you and comfort you when you think their is no one else their. Trust me i'm old enough to understand both sides of this story. Yours and Your Parents.
Talk to them, Please.
Ya girl

I kinda know wut ya mean. some times u wonders is life worth living. i am kinda facin the same thing. The only reason i am still goin on is because of God. he's my refuse and strangth.

It's sooo annoying and painful. sometimes u just wanna cry. These pass few days i realized, it don't matter wut people think or say cause i got God on my side. he don't judge. it's like i can tell all problems to him and he'll listen. he's always 4 u. when ever u'r feelin down, try prayin to him. u can say simple prays like jesus i give u my life come into my soul. Trust, u'll see a difference. u can email me at
