so i was reading the paper on the bus to school and there was this ad with 10 or so questions on it to tell if you had depression or not. i got 8 out of 10. i've always thought of depression of just being sad or whatever, i don't really believe in it, but is it something to worry about if i do have it, or just ignore it?
I heard something like that on the radio once about whether or not you should be worried about your teenager. Is s/he quiet? moody? keeps to themselves? mood swings? Well... um... that's pretty much every teenager out there. I think depression is something to be worried about when it's debilitating. When your sadness keeps you from doing your daily grind, then it's something to consider getting help with.
what's up zach! how's it going w/ the bf n school n stuff. still getting ownt by the all the hw like i am? cheers.
Absolutely ignore it. Man, if you're depressed you don't have to read a silly-assed test to figure it out. Depression sits on your life like a giant turd and everything looks like shit. If that ain't happening, you're probably fine.
well the question is if you truely believe you are depressed? don't worry about what a quiz says unless you actually feel it.
i feel sad on a daily basis but i don't know about depression. don't really know how it is to feel it but just these past couple days a couple things went out of the ordinary so i was a little curious. when i talk to people i'm perfectly fine, i smile, laugh whatever but yeah. my last class out of the blue while i was looking at my notes and the class was listening to the teacher talk, my eyes watered up a bit thinking about stuff in my head dealing w/ being gay or whatever and i was like wtf. that's never ever happened.
well first it could just be an off type of week. everyone has those. but if you constantly feel sad then you may be depressed, obviously im no doctor and i cant diagnose you but it may just be a mild case. I've been extremely depressed before so I know what its like. If oyu want to talk, feel free to PM me. And thanks for the compliment by the way lol. *High Five back achea*
