I'm feeling depressed right now?

Question

im 15 and have been through depression before. lately I've felt depressed, and the things that I look foward to always dont plan out also its I always feel very lonley and sad around the holidays. couple of days ago one of my friends said I was gay and was make fun of me behind my back and ever since everyone has been very distance and been acting very weird ( my friends and family). I've been a good person and also a model citizen and I always help others who are in need. I'm not homosexual and never had a date or a gf. I believe in karma but everything that happens to me are bad things. Sometimes I think about killing myself but try to avoid those feelings because I dont want to hurt my family. I have got nothing to do on new years eve and wonder if its worth living another year. Can some one cheer me up and help me out. Thans for reading and for your time

good luck and have a happy new year.

Answer 1

wow, you're only fifteen and your thinking of killing yourself, do you realize that you're life will be better when you go to college. make some goals for yourself and those who make fun of your aren't friends at all. distance yourself from them. if your family thinks your gay then talk to them or confront them about it. talk to your mother and if she doesn't listen then talk to your school counselor. confront your friend about. you're doing OK by asking us on yahoo, but pay attention to the serious answers, some in here are just miserable people who wish they were 15 so they like bringing people down to their level because they wish they could go back and start anew.

Have a happy new years and remember to believe in yourself. if others want to make fun of you, they must be jealous of you for some reason


Please, Please, Please stay in school no matter what, I was made fun of as well and I stuck to school. your friends will become distant memories when you graduate and go to college, you'll meet your life friends there. don't go to night school, tough it out.

People only make fun of others because they are trying to distract others from their inadequacies. they must be jealous of you for some reason, just ignore them and don't worry about them. They usually end up being nothing special, but you're going to be a special person because you have to knack to be a critical thinker. use that as your tool to keep yourself going and when you enter college, your friends will probably worship the ground you walk on, just be yourself no matter what, you've got atleast two more years so tough it out and stick to your education and you'll be OK

don't worry about not having a girlfriend because in college your options will be even greater than now
My first girlfriend was when I was 17 so don't worry about it.

you're too into yourself to worry about girls so dont' worry about it

Answer 2

Yes kind of that... You made a good question. I can apply it to my self, in earlier time... If you have experienced a boring environment or whatever, bad friends and that you seeem to end up in problems etc time after time, then you could have been mentally numbed in a way you forget that the way you live, is not a good one. If you have struggled and it has become a steady pattern. You should be glad, you should feel comfort, you be happy and laugh, you should love someone and be loved. If a person has been this "numbed", it can take some time to re-gain the open consciousness about it, it may start with more or vivid dreaming and nervousness etc. It is, now for you, a step in your life, an insight, at least insight that you want or should need more insights. Once you have this awareness, you may still think that you don't know what to do. Then just think, I don't know what and how but I wish I can. That you have to kind of reprogram yourself. And since the solutions may not be there not, to reprogram the vison of paths you would want bla bla bla (!) Even if you don't feel depressed, think technically then, the way you live, is it a way that will lead you on, or are you standing still? care to tell more?

Wow its completly unbelivable how much we have in common when I was 15 I was feeling the exact same way. I was also accused of being gay but even worse my twin sister started it. Completly untrue. The holidays are very stressful and can bring up some bad emotions. When I had thoughts of death I couldnt bring myself to tell my mom when I wanted to so bad I felt like there was something wrong with me. You need to find some one you can put all your trust into prefebly an adult. More specifically a school counselor they keep everything confidential and will not speak of anything you talk about except for in the office with you and they will not tell your parents. If you stress concern they will listen to you and keep everything in confidence. If your friends ask why youve been going tell them its school stuff and college stuff, good cover. Start writhing things down. How you feel think of what happended before you started to feel that way. This can really help you uncover what is making you upset. Talk to someone dont listen to your friends. If theyre calling you names and they know it hurts you, you can do better. Talk to someone and before you think about "jumping off the edge" think about your family and how they will always be ther to try to help you. I really hope this help you and you get through this.

Dude! How about looking forward to getting laid...hello, by a chick of course! Hey, Wanna have a date?! *grin*

Good luck to you...keep on truckin'. There are no easy answers and there is no easy road. I remember well the year I was 15. Man, did I get in a lot of trouble! I was pretty depressed and I thought of ending my life more than once that year.

I'm so very lucky that I did not do what I wanted to do. I have experienced a first love, a terrible breakup, finding love again, marrying that man in Maui, giving birth to a beautiful little girl and will give birth to another pretty soon. Life does goes on a roller coaster ride ...but, man...what a great ride it is.

Answer 5

There seems to be a good balance of kind folks replying to you so I will just be brief and say that it's these "valley" experiences when you are 15 that will help you become the successful person you want to be, IF you find yourself a motivational mentor (or mentors) and start setting some goals... the New Year is a good time for that.

If you want to let go of the depression I would suggest you try something called Emotional Freedom Technique.

God bless you!

Answer 6

I am so sorry to hear what you are going through and will confide that when I was in my teens it was very rough..I was bullied constantly and wanted to die. I always had my mom to turn to though. Do you not have anyone to talk to? Talk to your parents or someone you can trust. Try to get some therapy going. This is nothing to be ashamed of! If this depression goes on for weeks without letting up then it can be clinical depression and can be dealt with meds and therapy! Again, I repeat, this is not your fault or nothing to be ashamed of! If people that you call friends are making fun of you then they are no friends! You are unique and special, don't forget that! Do take care there is always a way! You need to get help soon as you are admitting to thoughts of killing yourself. Please get help!

Answer 7

Well it's probably an end of the year thing, or teen thing. This is a depressing time of the year, Christmas, end of the year. It could just be temp. Think of all your accomplishments, and the good person you are. About this friend saying your gay, just ignore them and turn the other cheek. Reacting to what they are saying just feeds into them teasing you more. Killing yourself is not a good idea, if you think like that tell your parents so they can get you help. Go do your favorite thing and think about what a good person you are. watch tv, play on pogo, or play a video game. Good luck! and Happy New Year. (I get depressed too, and I have my ups and downs also) You just have to work through them.

Answer 8

Oh honey, It will get better. Like you said, the holiday season pulls out the depression in so many people. And for your so called friends who made fun of you...screw 'em!! You don't need them. If you are truly as you have described yourself...then you will make new friends who will not do that to you. They are not true friends if they are making fun of you. And PLEASE don't hurt yourself. If would just hurt your family and would not solve anything. Cheer up it is a new year to start over. You don't have to go out to have a good new years. BE safe and have fun!! Good Luck. :)

Answer 9

I've had depression my whole life, but never realized what it was until I became pregnant with my youngest child. I'm just now pulling out of a very long, difficult and trying four years. It has not been easy. But the lessons I learned through those years, I wouldn't trade for anything. I kept crying out to God to take me from the situation, but He did not. It wasn't until I accepted the way my brain works and let this stuff happen around me (not to me) that I began to find relief. God will see you through, too.

Answer 10

Look, we all run into things that we don't want. Part of being a stronger person is facing problems and getting over them. Not running away. So, find out what you need to do for a good life. Do your best in everything you do. Life is too short to be depressed and there are lots of people who would love to live the life that you have. Don't take things for granted. Try to be optimistic and set goals for yourself. Ignore what other people think, that just means you're doing something right. You are an individual. People are going to criticize you and make fun of you, but you just have to be strong and do you want you desire. Don't let those people stop you. Think about things that make you happy. Do things that make you happy.

Answer 11

Snap out of it! Forget the suicide talk, that probably wouldn't go well for you either! You need to focus on things other than yourself. Get a pet and maybe you will see that you have something to live for and it will open your eyes to other things you are grateful for if you take responsibility for someone or something other than yourself.
You say you are a good person, well that is what counts! It doesn't matter whether you are gay or straight. You would have more friends if you would cheer up, no one wants to be around someone who is "down" all the time. Ask a girl out to dinner or a movie if she turns you down ask another. If you expect things to go wrong they will! Your family loves you and you would be hurting them terribly if you did something drastic and stupid! Go to a shopping mall and walk around with a smile, see how many return the smile back to you. Life is worth living so start living your life!
