Everybody has problems. I know that and I'm doubting anybody, but it sometimes seem, especially during these high school years, that everyone tries to be so dramatic and make things worse than I seem. For example, there's this little clique at my school. I've known half of them since we were little, but they've completely changed. In they're clique, it's important for you to be super dramatic about everything in life and act like you are miserable and depressed. They talk about cutting themselves a lot to take away the pain, but their friends go behind their backs and say, "Oooh. Did you see her fake little scars? They were so light." It's like they're in competiton to see who's life is the worse. I recently read an article in Seventeen magazine, and they were talking about how being depressed almost seems like a fad now. Do you agree with this? Not saying that people don't have problems, becuz many people do, but in general, do you think people r making depressed a trend?
