really down on my birthday? I turn 22 in about a half hour and I am just so depressed about it. Not just because I'm getting older, I'm just always feel like blah on my birthdays. What could be some reasons behind it?

there may be something that happened to you on your birthday that you dont want to remember, perhaps a loved one died around that time period or you had a bad birhday in the past try to remember what you can and confront it dealing with it is the ony thing that will help

Ah....to be 22 again! Count your blessings.
I've gotten depressed on birthdays too. And also after a really good weekend with friends or family. I think its just the reality of passage of time. The "annual" get togehters always bring melancholy...another year gone, and as much fun as a birthday, or reunuion, or get-away or vacation, it ALWAYS ends. Remember how you'd try to savor the last days of summer as a kid? No matter what you did, August always ended and school started. And eventually the blues would pass and you get excited to go back. Its ok to stop and feel depressed, its part of life, and then another chapter starts...Happy Birthday!

Because you are expecting there to be more...something great is supposed to happen, and it doesn't. It's a normal feeling. Happy Birthday and try to enjoy your special day!

You may have high expectations, as if a birthday is supposed to mean something.

Maybe there's a suppressed memory from your childhood that brings up ill feelings...anything you may remember?
