vnla2luv	How irritating is it that someone made a joke of this... First of all a friend is not someone who will abuse you that way. I don't necessarily think seeing a doctor would help but maybe a first step would be to meet with the counselor at your school. Going through a separation and divorce, that helped my kids a lot. That could help to deal with a lot of your other issues as well. I would talk to the counselor or find a true friend that you trust. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

brooke_558	I have been diagnose for depression in the past. I was 23 and just had my second child though. Depression is different for everyone. You do seem to be down, but for valid reasons. I would start by seeing a doctor. Your family doctor can get you started on medicine if necessary and refer you to a counselor or therapist. Wether you go on medicine or not, a counselor is always a good idea to get professional insite and opinion on the issues you are dealing with. Good luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

PUNCH her back. she's no friend. you do need to talk to someone cos i think you need reasurance Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sdselt	Sweetie, I think it's all just normal... 1. If you feel fat, I would recommend starting to work out. If you all ready do this, learn to love yourself. Once you are in love with yourself, who cares what anyone else thinks! Do things for yourself to be healthy...and don't worry about fitting into someone else's pattern of perfection. 2. School is one of those things you can't avoid. Learn as much as you can and get out! :) Guys...well, they will always be guys....and will always frustrate you! 3. I am sorry to hear about your parents, I know that can not be easy for you. Do you think that some of your low self esteem comes from that? With this issue, talking to a therapist or counselor really might help you deal with the issues that are effecting you. 4. I doubt very seriously that you are ugly, but I do sense low self esteem again...love yourself sweetie... 5. I'd get rid of this friend... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Harley Lady	I survived everything you mentioned including living with my Dad when my parents separated and taking care of all our laundry, cleaning, etc.Hang in there.These are the good times. Take care. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Lady Jazz	This is not depression, it is everyday life. You don't need to go see a doctor. Every girl at some point in her life begins to feel like she's not pretty enough or not good enough. But just stop worrying about what everybody else thinks about you and you won't feel so depressed. Be who you are and forget what the rest of them think about you. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

meira198	it's not depression. It is your lack of confidence. go see a therapist. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Blondies!!	I don't think it is.... Depression is a mood disorder that causes a child or teen to feel sad or irritable for a long period of time. A young person who is depressed may not enjoy school, play, or friends and may have low energy and other symptoms. As with an adult, symptoms of depression range from mild to severe and vary from person to person. Depression can last for a long time and may come in cycles of feeling down and feeling normal. Chronic (ongoing) mild depression, called dysthymia, occurs when a child feels a little down most of the time for a year or more. Both severe and mild forms of depression can be effectively treated. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Blondie	its not full blown depression but u need to stop hanging around the people who make u feel worse or sooner or later u will have depression and u will have to buy the druds be monitored and u don't want that Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

makeloans2	Yes, you sure could be depressed. Please see your doctor and explain all this to him/her. There are medications that can get you through the rough times until you feel more in control of yourself. It's good that you are recognizing it and are willing to take some action. Good luck. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

xliz711x	Do you ever feel sad for no reason at all? Or cry at the drop of a hat? What's bothering you seems like normal teenage problems, however, if they bother you to the point that you feel very sad, highly angry, or anxious then I would suggest talking to your doctor. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

aussiegirl_aka_shygirl	For starters, you need a new friend! You may be depressed, or you might just be going through what alot of teenagers, down through the ages have felt and gone through. Go see a doctor anyway. It's better to be informed, rather than wondering if you are or not. Good luck and I hope this helps. xo Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

letterstoheather	Hon, just the fact that your parents are separating, is a devistating life change, so you are normal for feeling upset about that. Your friends have no right to invade your space, or physically abuse you... i don't agree with hitting, but give them a good slug next time they violate you... that's what i would do... you don't deserve repeated abuse... I have listed a source below on the Teens Health website. I always recommend it, and it seems like a really great site for people in your age group. If you feel you would like to talk to a doctor about the way you are feeling, then please do so... it can't hurt... hugs Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

regerugged	No, you are not depressed and you do not need to see a doctor. re #5, what kind of friend is that. No one is allowed to punch you or step on your foot intentionally. Make complaint against that person if he does not stop. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

petmykitty22	Sounds like normal life to me. Its how you feel about these things that could be considered depression. Are you sad all the time? No motivation? Are you unable to enjoy activities you used to love? Trouble sleeping? These could be signs of depression. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

5th of Tuesday	These things are normal for a teen to go through, unfortunately. Just remember, when you get through these years you'll never have to again. Also, your "friend" is NOT a friend. Sounds like severe jealousy to me. Get a new friend or start punching and stompin back!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Amy.	it just depends - explain this to a doctor and he will tell you if he thinks you have it or not. If he does think you do he will refer you to a psychologist and/or prescribe you some pill's too take and you should get much better. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

amr	sometimes it happens that we become nervous and encage ourself in a shell of our own thinking... such thinkings can be... Feeling Proud... Complex (both Inferiority and Superiority) Thinking abt Bad or Good things or Death.. and so... u r thinking abt ur ownself by feeling inferiority complex (i think) thats why others tease u... coz u become upset by their doing so and dont resist... SO PLZ U DONT THINK SUCH THINGS JUST USE UR POTENTIAL TO OVERCOME UR DEFIENCIES AND TRY TO STRUGGLE WITH UR MENTAL POWER NOT WITH UR KICKS N PUNCHES... (((((( the things u told r just normal... if u feel fat u must... reschedule ur diet.. problems r there coz u go school and its normal matter u have to face... being ugly isnt ur fault.. u r created as it..))))))) plz tell me if try it and what it concludes... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mlgable	No that is not depression. You are having normal teen issues. See your school counselor to discuss all this with them. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Mae B	It wouldn't hurt to just talk with a Dr. and maybe he'll have you try some samples. It just sounds like your going through some ugly times in this truly evil world. I'm sorry. Pray to God for your problems to go away. He will help you. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

wilow420	no. it's called being a teenager. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

AlmondJoey	This is called TEENAGER. If you think it's hard...wait'll you learn what ADULTHOOD is like! Then, if you survive that mess...you get to endure OLD AGE. And if you're still smiling after that...you're faking it. For you see, God is standing with club in hand, to show you the Great X-Rated Movie in the Sky..."YOUR REAL LIFE" ...and then you'll wish you had been kinder, more generous, caring and patient with others, instead of focusing on your own petty interests and the quest to acquire, out-do and be forever entertained by mindless sewage that only enriched filthy immature and base souls who abused and neglected their potentials to instead shirk responsibilities to spread more infectious folly throughout the earth as fast as they could, so they could put all their loads of cash into a trailer and be buried like an Egyptian King. I suggest you snap into perfection and teach us all how to live, and thus, save an entire generation, forever. This, my dear friend is why each one of us were born. But no one seems to want to do the job. WHY? . Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Bren J	No. I'd say you're just going through a rough patch. You need to focus on the positive parts of your life, and build up your self esteem or it could lead to something worse. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
