It sounds like you're having a hard time. It's not possible for someone here on Yahoo to tell if you're depressed based on the information you've provided. Remember, most of the people here are not doctors or therapists. I suggest you sit down and have a serious talk with your parents. Tell them what you're feeling and ask them what they think you should do about it. If you don't feel comfortable talking with your parents, then talk with the school counselor in confidence. It doesn't sound like you're a very happy person right now. Someone your age shouldn't be dealing with something like this alone. There are people who will be glad to help you. But you have to tell them you need help. Don't be embarrassed or ashamed. Everyone goes through a difficult time at one time or another and we all need help from others sometimes. Don't hold this in, it will only cause you more grief later on.

I would say hormones run amok are part of the problem. At your age, whether you are male or female, the hormones go rapidly up, and down, and that causes all sorts of havoc. You may have some depression issues, but I would suspect that hormones are a HUGE factor.
Keep a journal. Write down what you're doing, what you're feeling. This can be a great tool to help you to figure out what feeds the bad feelings. I know that for me, some of the music that I relate to the most, and dearly love, puts me in a deep funk. For my own mental health, I must limit it. In the journal, try to figure out from what you record from yourself, if there are people who feed the negative feelings. Avoid what makes you feel like dirt. (No fair saying that algebra makes you feel bad!)

nope your not depressed, just probably feeling very emotional at times when its not necessary. Depression is when the individual as yourself stop doing things that you use to do, feel sad, unhappy, mopey all the time, never feel happiness that is depression. I wouldn't worry of it but if u want talk to an adult or your teacher, ask questions if your that concern. Take it easy and try to relax when feeling emotional, it'll make things seem more easier.

Sounds like clinical depression. It's not that anything's wrong with your life, just the chemicals are being all wacky in your head and that's making you feel sad. If it doesn't improve, you might need to see a doctor.

no your not. if you feel like this but worse for about two weeks or longer only then could it be diagnosed as depression.
