Well from elementry school i couldnt make many friends. Everyone hated me cause i was annoying. In middle school more people taught i was annoying and ugry. Now im in high school and now i get called cute by other people that are older than me. Still no one in my grade likes me at all besides a few. Now when the call me that i feel more depressed out of no where. There is a depression club in my school but im too afriad to go there.. What am i going to do? I dont want to tell anyone right now.
 
Nobody is bad, everybody got something inside him that is so precious. Every human in this world is pretty much different than one another. Just stand with yourself and list down your advantages and disadvantages in a paper. Brainstorm whatever information you have into your mind that can analyze your personality. Have a further look for the future, don't look beneath your legs for what you can do now, look at what you can achieve in the upcoming days. Personally, I also passed by this phase but I went out of it by gaining fame and popularity in the school, do something others can't do or don't think about, be excellent in it, practise your hobbies frequently, occupy your time and try to socialize more even on the internet, you are just awesome, think about it.

I can agree on this. Also, try not to care about what others think of you. What matters is what you yourself think. Haters are gonna hate. But in the end, they don't matter.

This has been going on for a long time and it's not going to get better without facing it head on. There is obviously something causing you to feel depressed. I think it it's wonderful there is a depression club at your school. It's nice to know you're not alone in feeling the way you do. If I were you, I would join the depression club. It will give you an outlet to discuss how you feel and listen to others dealing with the same issue. There's is no reason to be afraid to go to join the club and there is no reason to feel ashamed of feeling depressed. Keeping all of this bottled in is not making it go away. Go ahead and take that first step towards helping yourself and join.

I think that is pretty much everybody's trip through the school system.



I would tell you that it'll get better with time, but you wouldn't believe me. And I could say that in twenty years everything will be sunshine and lolly-pops, but that would be a lie.



Stick it out, look for the good, work to please yourself, and remember, Education and Experience are the only things other people can't take away from you.

Makes me a bit happier. Im almost known to everyone and espically seniors. My social life is fine with older and younger people but not people who i grew up with. I got to take a picture with a bunch of girls today.

Its normal for a teenager to think their life sucks and to feel depressed. We all go through it. I did. Just look forward to your 20's, they should be much better for you mentally.

If they can't like you for who you are, trying to be different would just be a lie. Focus on those people who do like you, you cannot and should not please everyone. Other people's opinions of you don't matter, your opinion of yourself matters.

So far so good.
 
What you need is confidence, when you have been continuously knocked down by a group of people for a period of time, it is hard to get up on you own two feet.

They don’t want you to.

They enjoy having you to be their plaything for their cruel entertainment.

The sooner you can overcome them, stand up to them, ignore them, and focus on what in life makes you happy, the sooner you will be happy.



I love this story.. (and it is based on truth)



A fisherman was out crab fishing along a beach with a large bucket in his hands full of crabs.

Another man on the beach was watching in interest as there was no lid on the bucket keeping the crabs in. He would see a crab crawl his way to the top, at the point of almost escaping, then disappear back into the bucket.

The man said to the fisherman, “you better put a lid on that bucket, you crabs will escape”

The fisherman replied; “there is no need to, you see, every time a crab makes it to the top of the bucket, the other crabs pull him back down, they will not let anyone escape”.



This is true in life, there are always people wanting to pull you back down, not letting you go free, simply because they are crabs. Raise above them, don’t let them pull you down, climb out and be free.
 
The best way I could describe depression is like a little man living in your head that likes to tell you terrible stories about who you are. He's both very good at telling stories and also at being very convincing. Eventually, you start to wonder then accept that this voice is telling you the truth and it's how you get into the spot you are in. Eventually, you stumble across someone who can help and this little voice don't want you to get help because getting help for the depression means he gets evicted from your mind and he don't want to leave. You have to fight that fear and risk failure(which is what this voice has made you believe anything you do will lead to) and take the plunge. Once you start seeing that the stories that depression tells you are just fairy tales is when you can reject them and evict this little man and his stories from your mind and see yourself and the people around you for what they are and not what depression has made you see them as.



Beating depression is never going to be easy but if you work at it then you will be glad you got the help for it no matter who or what that help ends up being for you as different things work for different people.
 
Thanks everyone for the support. Ill try my best to get my depression under control.
