I basically have very little serotonin being produced in my brain,so yeah, I've go depression. Which was actually even made worse by the fact that I didn't know for the longest time high functioning autism was even a thing and I thought I was weird for all the little things I did and that nobody would ever like me if they knew about all of it. But now I'm better and I'm starting to even get some self confidence and I don't feel like how I used to anymore unless I'm triggered.

I wasn't diagnose, but I had some all through the second half of last year and the beginning half of this year.

I know my main root of it is because I have an anxiety disorder . But I can't stop thinking negatively. Idk. I'm trying. I've never been the most optimistic person, but I've never been this pessimistic either. Its like I try, but I'm getting defeated.

Nope.

Of course there's times I feel down to the point I dont want to do anything, and it can last for days, but never depression to the point to want to attempt suicide. I had an ex who killed herself though.

If youre suicidal at a young age, talk to somebody. Anybody. Sh*t, talk to the wall if you have to. Just get it out somehow.

Oh, and there's also this thread that no one uses.

Couldn't agree anymore. You could have the healthiest body in the world but if you're having mental issues your life could still be a living hell. Medical insurance usually doesn't cover therapy here and if it does you rarely get quality service like it's not even taken serious.

And thanks it's so kind of you. You might be getting a couple of PMs from me one of these days.

I'm positive I suffer from depression. I feel so god damn low right now.

Yes and it bothers me when people say to just snap out of it. Its not that simple.

Sometimes I feel like I might be so depressed that I don't actually realize it and live in a delusional "happiness"

But then I feel like maybe I'm just being overdramatic

Yes and sometimes I feel when it's coming. I can even feel it now.

Yes. I suffer from Double Depression which means I have dysthymia, but I also have major depressive episodes.

I've had depression from elementary through middle school basically, it put a hold on my childhood, suicide attempts all and I was strong enough to make it through sometimes on my own and sometimes with help from others. I had counseling since first grade and I was often viewed as the crazy/emo kid in middle school.

Once freshman year in HS came life was good.

Yes. I am always deeply unhappy for some reason, and sometimes I feel like breaking down in tears.

I was diagnosed with clinical depression when I was 10. It was a very tough time and it branched out and morphed into other things such as social anxiety, agoraphobia, and my becoming a loner. It took awhile to heal, but it was all over by the time I was 17. There was a lot involved. A track team, time, and the right people helped me along the way. They probably didn't know it, but their presence helped.

I was recently depressed in October 2011 and it lasted until March 2012. When I become depressed, I become depressed. Lol.

I've been a mellow person ever since I first became depressed. I still prefer my alone time to being social, lol. What's strange, tho, is the last I was depressed, it was because I wanted to be with someone.

I've been dealing with a mild case for a few years now. Life is a mess.

Yes
It's been like that since so many years,i think i will be like that all my life
It's terrible

I was depressed from late 09 to late 10. Honestly it started because I lost a fight and it seemed like evrybody had **** to stalk about me, so I just checked out and made myself think I didn't care. I became anti-social and didn't do ANY schoolwork... like literally NOTHING. My GPA was literally like 0.57 (I still passed, thank GOD.)

According to webmd I'm slightly depressed right now. That's due to religion/sexuality/insecurity. Sometimes I feel like I'm not even a cohesive being, like my soul is just splattered among the walls...



So I guess I'm depressed.

Yep, I have major depressive disorder

That's me now. He has it all and I have nothing which just makes it worse.
I'm such a mess at the moment and I'm usually so strong.
