I fake my feelings, most of them aren't even real. It's just numbness and sadness it's the only thing that I feel and it's driving me crazy. My limbs are just throbbing all the time with the feelings of nothingness, while my brain is on auto pilot.
Maybe I screwed myself on this, constantly saying I'm fine when really I'm not at all, but now nobody asks me if I'm alright. I don't... I just honestly don't know what to do with myself anymore. Not even the drama club, my soul purpose for living last year, is making me happy. -
That sounds like depression to me. Like, the exact symptoms of clinical depression. (i would know, I have it.)
-
I've come to terms with it, it's just that I don't have the balls to say it out loud. Every time I plan on telling someone, the opportunity never comes up or I just avoid it.
-
If you can't say it out loud then you haven't truly come to terms with it.
Find a trusted adult (how old are you?) and tell them you need to talk to them about something serious and just tell them and let them know that you need medical attention. -
I'm 15. I've technically told my sister, but it was over text message while I was at school and just feeling really low. But that's what I'm really worried about because my mom can't afford medical attention for me, she's already trying so hard just to try and give me and my sisters a normal life. I don't want to put more pressure on her money wise, she's already so stressed out.
-
Roughly around the same age I was diagnosed as well. yikes.
Well f---. Well other things you can do is to distract yourself with things you like if you can't afford medical attention. save up money until you can? -
My sister just chalked it up to being a teenager, she has seasonal depression (we live in Michigan) so she kinda knows what it's like.
Yeah, I'm trying it's just hard to find something to do that. The only income I have is working at school and that won't be until, I don't know another month? I'll get some money eventually. -
Welp, I've had it for years so I can tell you it's not normal teenager moodswings.
Well I wish you luck, I'd help out and send some money your way (no, really i would.) but I'm strapped for money too due to being hit by a car (having to miss work) -
Thank you Carri, you really are a good friend. I hope you get better soon, it must really suck being limited like that.
-
Anytime.
Yeah, no kidding. I wish I got the basturd's license, cause then I wouldn't have to drop 4 weeks healing time to work cause of money issues.
It's fine though, I'm healing fast and I'm good to go back in on friday. -
Geeze, that's hard, he didn't even stop when he hit you?
If you don't mind me asking, how exactly did you get hit? -
He did, but fight or flight kicked in for me and I literally bounced off the pavement and ran.
I was crosswalk and speeder and WHAMO
I BECAME PANCAKE (jk, I just got hit on the side) -
Ah, I see.
Haha, oh my, that's traumatic. Now I know why my mom is super extra overprotective when I'm walking across the street, and my town is really full of a--holes who don't know how to drive. -
Mine is filled with stupid buttbrains too.
I came out fine and dandy compared to what could have happened though. I don't have much to complain about. -
That's always good, looking on the positive side of your situation. I'm really trying to do that right now but it just sucks.
Again, if you don't mind me asking, how old are you? I just want to ask what you think about being an adult/semi-adult, because I have a really cynical out look at growing up.
