I have been going through a very long depression for about 8 months. I think about what my friends did to me and the horrible things they said about me everything single second. I cry every night. Please help me. What cheers you up? Im only 13 though

Answer 1

Watching a favorite movie, preferably a comedy, usually helps.

Answer 2

When you are crying think how many people are there in the globe and how many you did not meet? How many friends you will have if you started to smile and look positively to life. It is good that you knew now when you are 13 that there is a bad friend so you will appreciate and enjoy having good friends many good friends one day. But this one day will not come except if you started to smile and love life. See how many people here care about you and trying to give you tips to overcome your depression. There is many people around you love to see you happy. I used to cry for 3 month nonstop after I broke up with my boyfriend and my therapist told me that I will be addict to crying if I did not stop now. I did not loose anything form stopping to cry but I enjoyed life and have now many good friends who care. So now smile I mean it smile now and look at the mirror and see how beautiful your smile is.

Answer 3

there is this way to tell a story of the beautiful swan that had a bout at your age of being the ugly ducking~all things came crashing down on the poor thing~of course the duck didn't know the way to harden her heart but it is so weird to c anyone care about anyone today, if thought the new kids were attitudes and mean girls, but there is always a chance that the mean girl thing can back fire, like when i was a kid we had the California sun & the beach everyday and we weren't people people we just got up and did what ever we wanted at the beach everyday, u kinda got to move on and do what ever makes u reemember what it was that makes u happy too, locked up is okay for healing and then it is back on track again, no big deal, hang up linger too long in the memories can stall growth and your heart want to grow so help it out and just do a few happy things everyday til u c just like people who quiet smoking, that when it's over it's over and u can move on

HAve you thought about seeking some professional help since you have spent such a long time in this depression? If you can't talk to your parents, try teachers or the school counselor. Try making a list of all the things that are positive in your life and look at it when you feel depressed.

Answer 5

I don't even know what the people you call your friends did but it sounds like you need to talk to someone maybe a parent, a school concealer. But in the mean time how about a sport or a musical instrument. Writing stories always helps me.

Answer 6

I'm going through depression too, and I think it's because of all the sugar I have been eating. Do you feel dead and have a lack of energy? Me too. What helps is to lay off the sugar. When I do this, I feel like my old calm self again.
I don't mean to say that you are self-pitying, but I usually think of myself that way. When I feel down, I mentally slap myself. I tell myself to cut out all the self-pitying and complaining, because there are a lot of people worse off than I am. Homeless people, innocent Iraqis being put in danger because a few of them had "WMD"(sorry, don't mean to be political), people who are being raped/tortured.

No offense. I'm sure you have a LOT to be miserable about. It just helps to remember others would love to be in your place.

We can't help it. We have a lot of things (food, shelter) and we take them for granted. Which makes us sad about other things that aren't as important.

We can't help it. That's the way we are.
Another thing that cheers me up is my perky, goofy dog.

Or reading fanfiction on fanfiction.net. (Sorry to spam.)
I want to be a writer, and I like reading other people's writing to help with mine.
But you don't have to read fan fiction.
You can read ANYTHING. Or even write!
When I was feeling down, I wrote this really dark story. When I read it, I honestly scared myself. I swear, that darkness scared me.
When I realized how scared I was, I laughed. This was my OWN darkness.
That helped me cheer up. I didn't want to be that dark to the point of scaring myself.

Art is a way to express yourself. Many great artists were extremely emotional.
Often the best, most passionate art is at a climax point in your life. You feel the need to let it all out, and you do it in your art. And it shows!

Whoever says you are too young to have problems, they are foolish. Just because we are young doesn't mean we don't have feelings!

Sodoku or crossword puzzles or math problems can calm you down.On the other hand, getting adrenaline pumping also helps you.
I do this by running or playing sports.
Running is fun for me, because it's a relief for my problems.
I can take all my anger out in my running, and it only makes me faster. Doesn't hurt anything.

After reading through this, I have realized I sound like the typical teenage ditz. Plus, I used this answer as an excuse to talk about myself. Ah, well

I'm able to shrug it off because I don't care what others think. I only care what I think. I know I'm not a ditz and don't have to prove it to anyone. If I thought I was a ditz, though, then I would care.

I think one of the major reasons I'm happy is because of that. I only care what I think.

Hope this helped! I doubt anyone read through all of it, but....

Yeah, I tend to blab.

Answer 7

ooooh, girl, let me help... for a fast fix, get a carton of ice cream. then, turn to yourself. in the big picture, all that matters, is that YOU are happy, healthy, and living for the future. who cares about your friends anymore. i know it might be hard, cuz they might have been very close, but they arent very nice, so who needs them. all you need is YOU!!! i dont know your situation exactally, but i can tell you that i have been through something at least a little similar, and it is actually a very beneficial experience (if you live through it that is) cuz it makes you a stronger, more independent person. you learn that you can be yourself, and that is all you should have to be. what youre friends say doesnt matter basically, and take care of youself.
