I'm feeling depressed and I need some advice.

Post Reply New Topic

Well, I have been having this ongoing cycle of depression for the last 2 years and I becoming irritated that I feel like sh*t on and off. I feel like no one cares about me and my life is just really boring. I do the exact same thing everyday, with a couple of exceptions. I go to school, come home, do homework, play modern warfare 2, hang out with 1 of my 2 friends almost everyday, and I want to change it up a little bit but I really don't know how to. I'm so used to my routine that I'm quite scared to change it. I'm also really absorbed in my special interests and ramble about them for hours on end to my mom, and she looks like she doesn't want to hear it because I've said the same thing hundreds of times.

My question is, How do I just be happy in life and not be so depressed all the time?

I did something different today, I went to the park with my friend who has pdd, and we actually had a good time. Me and him were both wondering if people can tell that we both had ASD's.

I have been having problems in school. I don't feel like I fit in there, I think people are like, "Who's that weird kid."

Any suggestions?

Consistent happiness is a difficult thing to maintain. Try to find in those small glimpse of time and if you can't find any, start creating some.
You say you did something different and had a good time, so maybe you are onto something there?

You cold try just little changes with your lifestyle. Play a different game, eat something different, see some place you haven't seen before even nearby. I wouldn't concern myself too much about what other kids would think of you as long they aren't bullying you or anything. Once you leave school, it's not likely you'll see them again.

Thanks for the input. I will try that. I'm also going to go see a psychiatrist, is there anything you recommend?

Find a psychiatrist you're comfortable with so you can trust them and be open and honest about how you are feeling. That's the most important thing I would suggest. Hopefully they can help you and maybe even give you more suggestions.
