Depressed and need to talk to someone

I don't know why I think I am depressed... I just HATE my life right now. my parents are going back and forth between a divorce! and school SUCKS!! I go to school, come home and cry then go to bed at like 7... how can I be happy? is their a secret to...

being happy? I am soo quite at school that people make fun of me... how can I not be so quite? how can I talk more about random things?/? I don't know.. just PLEASE HELP ME

yes there is a secret to happiness I agree w/ happiness08 go to Rev 21:3,4. you may not feel like reading the bilble but I promise that it will help you. go to the website mentioned to you above. but if you can try to talk to a Jehovah's Witness they are always helpful. You may think that they have nothing to do w/ your life but if you tell them what you just wrote they will help you. fun mail me and tell me if it gives you any reults. or check out my profile and leave any comments. hope this helps you.

I tottaly agree with icy...just talk to someone uve heard is nice...sit with them at lunch or something like that...once you find friends you can hang out with on weekends or whatever then its nice to not have to worry whose house your staying at or anythinkg like that...its a good stress reliever to talk to that friend too. they might understand

the only advice I can give you is tell your parents! The only reason your quiet is because of the background your from! dont hate me for saying that! I've studied psychology, you r who you r... you r depressed yes, go 2 your gp and express what you just said! if you tell your parents how you feel maybe they'll treat you like an adult and tell you how they are feeling and include u

it sounds you r being left out!

good luck and try 2 b happy it isnt your fault

well first of all you need to tell your parents aboout how you feel about a dicorce and da school thing...people can say anithing dey want about you and and don't mean a thing especially if its not da truth just remember how strong you are and if that dosent work do you have anii talents that you can show off like can you draw or are u a gud poet or writer or sumthin...sumthing dats grabzz their attention and if that don't work curse em out like for ex.fuqq outta here you have no type of rights to be talkin about me like that because im smater and prettier you have to hate because im sick and tired of all yall silly and immature comments about me like you have noe life like who really does that...your actin like my lil sis(bro couzin wateva one you have) and its ova da stupidest shyt like what did I say to you and when eva dey try to tlk be like bytch shut da fuqq up...always runnin at da mouth got damn im sick of hearin your fuqqin voice that shyt iss so annoyin now...lolsz...nah id do sumthin like that because dats how you show lil kidz whos boss and if sumboddi try to hit you just start throwin punches k!!!hope mii fun and crazzi advice helps u_Shannen

Look to the Bible for happiness. Read: Revelation 21:3, 4 and check out http://www.watchtower.org/e/20060615/article_02.htm

okay so what you can do is find a hobbie my parents are doing the same thing I miss the old days but if you find something to take your mind off of it life will be great and at scool just focus on your grades and everything will be fine

You can funmail me if you want to talk.
I'll be more than glad to help.

uhhh yo calm down lol its okay so uhm. . . . how bout you go go to your local animal shelter I mean im 13 and im real good frends with the executive director and all the staff well I shoukd I've been there for 2 years but anyhow, go down there, take a dog out sit with it play with it and stuff groom it or whatever, and then ul feel better, besides ul realize that you cant be depressed when those animals who have NO family and most im sure already know there fate, so go give it a try.

You are at an age where hormones, emotions and even your brain are undergoing strong changes. It is natural to occasionally feel confused or depressed.

The best thing you can do is to talk to a counselor or therapist. Barring that, find someone you can communicate your emotions and thoughts with, sort of like a sounding board. Keeping your thoughts to yourself doesn't help. If you can't find someone around you then consider Fun Mailing someone on Fun Advice whose advice you like. It's relatively private and gives you a good sounding board.

Fun Mail a sounding board!

I would assume that you can't talk about what you are going through with anyone because it is too personal and you don't want others to know about it in relation to you.

The solution, then, might be to pick someone on Fun Advice whose advice you like and Fun Mail them. (You can check out the quality of someone's advice by clicking on their name; going down to their recent advice, click on view all, then click on the questions that might interest you and view their answers.) Explain to them that you are having problems and want to have someone to use as a sounding board and would like to know if they would be willing to be your sounding board. Fun Mail is basically private, so you shouldn't have any concerns about your privacy.

Although there are many users on Fun Advice who would be qualified, I'd suggest the person be an Advisor, for two reasons: First, most Advisors have several hundred or even thousands of Answers under their belt which can really give you a perspective about them; and second, you can simply click on the Advisors link at the top of the page and view a list of the most recently active Advisors with information about them AND a total of their Answers. (Don't contact them by that Ask me a question link. That's public. Instead, click on their name which will take you to their Profile page, then click on the Send me Fun Mail link on the left side of the page.)

You also have the ability to Fun Mail anyone (Advisor or otherwise) by clicking on the Send me Fun Mail link near the top of the Answer under the person's name.

I have a problem sort of like urs too. mabey you can talk to me
