Nope. I am not and have never felt depressed. I'm a naturally happy person, and I enjoy making others happy too. I have no idea what it's like to be depressed; I imagine it's a horrible feeling. I have a quote about happiness I found a long time ago.

"Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it."

Sometimes, the best way to make yourself happy is to make somebody else happy. I know that one of the best ways to do that is by just smiling at somebody or saying hello. You have no idea how that one little smile or hello could change somebody's day. Go ahead and talk to them. Ask them about their day. Make them laugh if you can(That's my kind of way ;) )! Also, try not to sweat about the little things in life. You're life will be much better if you do that.

Wow, I sound kinda.... I don't know, but as long as this helps somebody somewhere, I'm happy.
Hope you have (or had) a good day!

Yep. Went through a horrible clinical depression. i came out the other end completley. My thing was tanning+fish oil+exercise+being good to other people. Trust me Bloodex... You dont wanna see how far down the rabbit hole you can go. Say whatever you need to; even if people label you as a hypocrite or dislike you for it, its worth getting it off your chest.

I hope your depression subsides. Good luck and feel better! If you ever need to elaborate on this situation, or just to talk to someone in general, you can pm me. Ive been there and then some. (I was so depressed I literally could'nt eat:C). So yeah- get better!

I've only ever been depressed for maybe an hour at most. Depression is so pointless and just wastes precious time in life.

I've been through some rough depression in my life ..especially during the end of my high school years (2007-2008.)
My anxiety disorder finally broke free during my senior year ..and I couldn't take the stress ..and the anxiety over every little thing. I became so depressed and socially withdrawn from life and everyone I cared about.

I think I can honestly say that was one time in my life when I was truly, and if not, almost suicidal.
I never wanted to leave my bed ..I just wanted to lay there forever. I felt there was no point on living at that time.
I hated getting up (even more) and going to school ..and it was so hard to hold in tears during classes. I truly felt that I wasn't apart of the same world as everyone was.

Depression can seriously eat you up. If you don't fix it soon enough ..it can take over pretty quick. :\
but everyone gets depressed ..but not everyone suffers from depression.

I'm free from that depressed phase now ..even though I still suffer from pretty bad anxiety. I'm not depressed anymore. I get highs and lows, but yeah, everybody does.

I've defitely been depressed before- for long periods of time, even. I contemplated saying something to my friend for weeks (it was about how he treated me). He treated me horribly, but everybody loved him. For weeks I was considering telling him off, but I knew he'd get everyone to dislike me for it- I eventually said screw it, it's not worth the depression, may as well take a risk.

So I told him I hated how he treated me and he was being an ass, and things actually got better.. thats my outlook, expect the worst but hope for the best.

Good luck with your problem-- I hope everything goes well, and if you ever need support, I know the people of PC will always be here for ya!

I try to look at the brighter sides of life then get depressed.
Even when my dad had cancer and finally died becaise of it. Instead of looking at it as a grat loss for me and my family, which it is. I see it as my dad is in a better place and isn't in agonizing pain anymore. I still miss him deeply, and no one will ever replace him, but one day, I'll see him again.

I have been depressed since 2005 and still haven't recovered. 2004 was the last year I was happy in, after that, it just seems like my life is over. I can't enjoy activities as I use to, I have lost of appetite, I go to sleep too much and I have anxiety. I already have classic autism, Asperger's Syndrome and ADHD which will make it extremely difficult to focus with my depression now. I always wonder how to people recover it.

Well I recovered. The turning point was me being hospitalized in '05. I hadnt slept for 4 days, my face was completley broken out (it looked like I got attacked by a swarm), and I had drug induced parkinsonins and tachycardia. I had an allergic reaction to one of the drugs they had me on. I could barely eat, walk, and even breathing seemed labored.

So... They finally prescribed me a muscle relaxant as I was coming off the other drug. It helped me go to sleep. The first night of sleep was like being on an acid trip:S. After I spent about a week in the hospital, I was dischgarged and sent back home. Basically I started sleeping and shards of my sanity started coming back into place. I then got interestred in weight lifting, and started to hit the gym. I went from being a sickly 130 to 165:) Although it did take awhile.

So my solution was hitting the weights. Coupled with a nutritional regimin, it helped me recover. For you guys that are depressed I would say research it- and put into practice what you learn. Tory- your multiple diagnosis does suck. But I think you could drastically imrove your condition(s) by implementing certian things into your life. And Haruka Chan- visit panic-anxiety.com. It helped me alot. Good luck guys. If I can get outta the 7th circle of hell I was in, so can you.

You don't just have to bottle things up to become depressed.

I had been clinically depressed. Been since cleared, though I faked it to the psychiatrists. I can act good if I nee to.
To cheer myself up I usually listen to music, the happy days theme tune or listen to the stand up of the mock the week crew.

I have a habit of saying what I think... Gets me into a lot of bad books with others, but if I don't, it eats me up inside. I wouldn't say I get depressed. I may seem depressed sometimes, but I just don't feel depressed.

Uh, when I was about 6, there was a death in my immediate family.
I can get quite depressed about that and the... general state of things.
But really all I have to do is talk to my friends and I start to feel a lot better :)
I think I'm more of an angry person.. than depressed.

Depression is my main mood for like months now. Oh how the effects of love can torture a man and make him feel like he is in a pit without return.
I sometimes wonder if all 15-year-olds are as shallow as you.

May I ask how I am shallow? Please I'm just wondering. I mean I thought up of both sides and well I just cannot see any good from it. Both of us were hurt but I took more pain as it was a rough period of my life with health issues in my family and actually having a girl say yes after asking her out was the greatest thing to happen to me during that time. If not I am not shallow but too drowned in so many feelings of hate anger sadness and happiness that my life has changed over the last couple of months. If not right now I just want to be void of feelings.

You can stop wondering, it's true.
I'm never truly depressed, I don't dwell on insignificant things.
I think of what I can do to kill my boredom until the end of the day then I sleep; When I awake, the cycle begins again. Being depressed is boring so it is not part of my daily routine.

I have a manic-depressive disorder, so I get extreme ups and downs at a moment's notice. At least, I used to.

My entire childhood I felt alone, ignored, forgotten, and that I was worth nothing to others no matter how hard I tried to make friends. I didn't fit in with my family, either.
They had a whole different mindset than I did (and this includes my extended family, namely my dad's side). I wanted to be understood and couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong, and all I knew was that when I grew up I was gonna leave that city, and that whole state behind, because I didn't fit there at all.

My mom was obsessed with the idea that I couldn't function without mood-stabilizing meds, and wouldn't listen to me. She was the type just made assumptions without thinking, and had her idea of what she thought I was like, and I couldn't get her to see otherwise.

Well, I finally did move far away a year and a half ago, to the beautiful state I live in now, and in the short time I've been out here, I have found myself loving life and feeling optimism more and more. Within this year alone, I feel I'm fitting in better both in online communities and with others IRL. I still get depressed, but it's far less common, and I get over it on my own much faster, and the only pills I ever pop are Aspirin, for when I get head/neck/backaches.
