This is a place where you can release your tension and anything else you want to talk about that's been messing you up or has been on your mind
DEPRESSION
BREAK UP
DIVORCE
ETC.,
This is a great idea MIMBE. I was thinking of starting a similiar thread but you beat me to it.
Because of my own personal issues, I have alot of wisdom garnered through experience that I would love to share, if only because I wish someone like me had been available to the 16 year me.
Unfortunately, people my age tend to write teenagers off as rebellious, immature, irresponsible, and rather than help them, judge them and walk away. I'm not that person and I would love to offer up my experience to someone who might be hurting and need it.
I am also a very good listener.
As for me, I have my issues - an illness that has tried to kill me since I was 16 by infecting my mind with bad logic, bad ideas and "morbid introspection" as I've heard it called. That's just a start, but I'll be more open about it in the future, when the time is right.
Thanks for creating this thread. I really hope people use it because I've noticed alot of young people on this board are really suffering and hurting and it bothers me, because I know what it is like to be hurting and suffering and alone. I want to help if I can - even if all I can do is send virtual hugs from cyberspace.

People only seem like they're mean because they don't know how much you're hurting inside and outside. They don't know just how beautiful and amazing you really are.
Sometimes you just gotta be upfront with them and tell them how much they really hurt you with their words. I know it's tough, but you need to hang in there and be happy, even when you don't feel like being happy.
Your friends that do love you and care for you want you to be happy. I'm one of them. I want you to find all the success in the world, find someone who truly cares and loves you, and live a perfect life.
I know there's more waiting for you. Just give it time. I promise, things WILL get better.

Good advice and very sweet too, TNftw.
I feel like i have depression or something. I'm overly emotional about EVERYTHING. I cry easily and I'm always sad and basically never happy. I try to cheer up and smile and be happy and laugh and have a good time. but I can't..
Idk, i might just be being dumb or something.
i PSEO full time, and i think it's taking a toll on me. I odn't feel motivated to do ANYTHING at all! I feel so hopeless, and i feel like i can't even understand anything and everything is so hard for me.

Since most of that was about me I'll just reply to this. You're not alone. I failed a big test today in A&P and I got a school parking ticket for no reason, not 5 minutes after failing the test. Even people like me who according to you "seem" have a perfect life, really don't. We all have bad days and realizations that we have to face about school, family, career whatever it is. No matter who you are things are crappy and life sometimes sucks. Killing yourself or saying you will doesn't help. Nothing helps except keeping ur head up and showing people that despite all the pain you aren't going to give in. I know you pretty much hate me Lashay and it's obvious you won't read this but I just wanted you to know that there is someone else in ur situation and it will be okay.

Lashay, the important thing to realize is that how we feel does not always coincide with the truth of our circumstances. Depression, especially colors our perception. But we can choose to stay where we are, depressed and hopeless, or we can choose to get help to overcome our depression. All it takes is a phone call or a conversation with someone who can help us get help.
There's a saying in Alcoholics Anonymous: "we aren't responsible for our disease; we are responsible for our recovery." Similiarly, we aren't responsible for our depression; we are responsible for our recovery. You have to take the first step.
