People who have never experienced depression often think it is only being sad or being in a bad mood. A busy and stressful life makes some parents care more for their children's performance and care less for their children's mental health. They may think that their children are only overreacting, or nothing can make their 'little kids' depressed...
My friend had depression last year now this year shes way better but now I have it and she knows what it feels like so shes the only one to help me in this right now
It's sad that when you're younger, people say that you're immune to depression because youre still a teen and "don't even know the real world out there" Like I don't get why they undervalue such serious topics. If you're experiencing this, I hope you get better. Here a cake for you🎂
The biggest thing that changed my life in therapy was realizing that having your feelings invalidated is MUCH more damaging that I could ever have known. But the powerful part is this: let yourself FEEL angry at them making that comment. Know that your parents/elders/etc are also just people, with their own insecurities and trauma, who only see you from the outside. It really is ~not~ you. It's infuriating when people won't listen to you because of how long you've been alive. My stepdad and mom used to do this all the time. "You don't know NOTHING! Wait til you get to the REAL world!!" Now at 31, I realize that they were just miserable, after having to work day in and day out in a job that didn't fulfill them, with their own past traumas that they never dealt with, having their own emotions fire up and project at me. Did they intend to hurt me? I'm sure they didn't. And I'm sure your parents/caregivers didn't either. It's hard to come to terms with the fact that we are all growing and changing, and no one truly knows what is going on. But trust your own instincts, be critical of yourself, and try to understand that the way people treat you is NOT your responsibility. You can only choose how to react. Stay true to yourself, and if someone tells you that isn't right, ask yourself "ok but do ~I~ think it isn't right?" Be strong, kids. You got this.
Ikr...And when u tell them how u feel...They tell u that u shouldnt feel that way and that the others have it worse..Like bro u think that I don't kn or I can control my feelings?I can control how I act but not my feelings damn the sad reality nowdays
1) Irritability 2) Sensitivity to criticism 3) staying in their room a lot 4) harder time focusing 5) changes in daily habits 6) physical pains 7) selective social withdrawal 8) slipping grades I have all of these
Hold on pal, you're not alone and it doesn't have to be over, it never does, I believe in you! Patience will get you to find out you're wonderful and you'll improve. I went through these things when I was a teen, I came out of it only as I was approaching my 20s, stick with the true friends, and if you don't see them, you'll see them eventually, you're never alone, it just takes patience and you can do this!

Fun fact: After my dad passed.. I’ve gotten skinnier I’ve been meaner I’ve gotten more irritated easily My straight A’s and B’s are slipping to C’s I can’t concentrate in school I’ve become introverted But yet everyday I still tell myself “Im fine”
U r not fine😢 RIP to ur dad ( uncle ) .... I don't know how bad u r suffering from... After 1 year I'm seeing this but u hope u will do reply .... How r u now !?!? I hope u r okay ❤ ～(つˆДˆ)つ｡☆ Let's do hug ~~~~
im gonna just vent here ehe: holy crap, school literally just started like a day ago, and im already so sick of it. it's already more than half way through 2021 and i still haven't become comfortable with anyone in my class and it's really scaring me..? like, i feel so alone. with that said, my grades went from bad to worse :( i can't focus in class, i just end up daydreaming or just staring blankly into space. and no matter how worried i am about my year end exams, i can't bring myself to have the motivation to learn and study anymore. i wasn't even a hardworking teen to begin with, but it's like im becoming lazier and lazier each day. i dread going to school. i feel like i could cry and breakdown any second. and i literally did, i broke down while trying to do math homework (math is a pain in the ass) but i have never cried over a question. and not just this, i also recently (probably) lost a friendship(?) i put a question mark because we weren't really close friends irl, but we talked a lot online, and played genshin quite a lot together too :/ now that she isn't even speaking to me anymore, i feel more distant from my class. even my closest friend is distancing herself from me. or maybe I'M distancing myself from her. aaaah i don't know, im just so tired of school, it's the biggest pain in the ass
@@runawaytillspringday2993 YEAH relatable- like no one can even tell that you're having a panic attack and you won't wanna tell anyone either because you just think that "omg later they don't even understand" or you feel like they'd say you're exaggerating
i relate so much to you i dont know whats going on and im scared to break down at any moment i cant even talk with my friends like i used to i just find nothing to say and i dont even listen and that fucking scares me
@@daisee2657 oh man im so sorry you go through the same things because (it kinda sucks so much feeling constantly scared about not knowing whats happening) i hope things get better for you and me :D also nice pfp🤔🤔
I was clearly depressed as kid, teen and still as an adult. Never been in therapy. I regret it. I’m glad and proud that my little brother communicates his struggles, a really brave young man :) He’s now seeing a therapist. My brother is a subscriber. I really appreciate your channel and themes, you’re helping him with your work.
I am here just to say something that if any of you ever will be needing help, feel free to ask me because I am also among one of you and without friends and siblings. So don't be afraid and feel free to be open to me anytime without hesitation. Always here for all of you as long as I am alive and I pray for all of you.
I can relate to all of them Especially criticism one I've always loved making drawings and digital arts but whenever I show them to my parents they are like "stop wasting your time doing shitty things and study" They need to understand that I can't study 24/7, I feel unmotivated most of the time and I just lay in my bed like a dead soul/body They also keep telling me I'm fat and stuff which makes me more insecure about myself and later ask "why don't you talk with us, you should socialize more" Like wow👌🏻
this is too true. it's hard to recongnize me now, eyebags, frowning, grumbling or just plain dead. who would have guessed this girl was once pretty, cheeky, bubbly and just happy with life?
@@peacheroseee exactly now I feel also have dark circles, puffy eyes, feel out of energy and body is always acing though idk if it’s depression, it might be an overactive thyroid Gland or something physical causing me these. But what tells me that I might be depressed or have anxiety is that I don’t laugh or smile at people much or even talk and my family and people around me pick up on that.
I am here just to say something that if any of you will be ever needing my help, just let me know because I am also suffering through all these without having friends and siblings, so stay strong and hold on because I am one among you. I pray for all of you. Good luck!
It's especially worse when your parents tell you "you shouldn't feel that way because it doesn't matter that much" or when they do something you don't like and they say "don't worry I had to deal with it too when I was growing up"
I am here just to say something that if any of you will be ever needing my help, just let me know because I am also suffering through all these without having friends and siblings, so stay strong and hold on because I am one among you. I pray for all of you. Good luck!
This hit way too close o home; nobody seems to take me seriously when I ask for help and if they do it's only for that moment. Your videos really help me validate and overcome these feelings
I am here just to say something that if any of you will be ever needing my help, just let me know because I am also suffering through all these without having friends and siblings, so stay strong and hold on because I am one among you. I pray for all of you. Good luck!
I’m an autistic teen. I also have had anxiety issues my entire life, and my therapist and I have decided I likely have depression. I haven’t told my parents in fear of rejection, although I have been feeling empty, lonely, and unmotivated for the past few months. I have also been having an increase in migraines and headaches.
Meet my dad: "Depression is when you can't get outta your bed because of low motivation and all that". And that's one of the reasons I consider myself just a lazy frick, because I basically spend more time than I should (like at least 5 hours) on RU-vid (and recently Reddit) instead of working for school. If you are still reading... Here's a cake I guess - 🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂
Many factors increase the risk of developing or triggering teen depression, including: Having issues that negatively impact self-esteem, such as obesity, peer problems, long-term bullying or academic problems. Having been the victim or witness of violence, such as physical or sexual abuse.
It annoys me when parents ignore their child when they tell them that they may have depression or other mental illnesses because "they don't know who the real world is" This exact thing has happened to me with my parents. Needless to say I cried myself to sleep
I have almost all of the signs mentioned, and the fact that my parents see that as a laziness and my "rebellion" and choose to criticize or verbally abuse (even physically sometimes), already tells their ignorance :)
Same. Idk why but as someone who have toxic+strict parents I will often get mad easily and talk back. It just..I am annoyed how everyday I am bottling up my emotions..but hey, one day we will be a better person than them^^
@@putriislayy5803 it's exactly the same with me, and I always get random burst of emotions most of the time it's my anger, idk what it's directed upon, if it's the way they all treat me or it's the fact that I can't do anything even tho I'm gonna be 18. And you're right, we're not alone in this there are so many children out there going with the same issues
I am here just to say something that if any of you will be ever needing my help, just let me know because I am also suffering through all these without having friends and siblings, so stay strong and hold on because I am one among you. I pray for all of you. Good luck!

I’ve ben watching Psych2go’s vids since yesterday (or more) almost non-stop. It’s been helping me thinking about the person I want to be for my friends and family and also has been helping me seeing my own flaws too, I’ve been working and thinking about that and I’ really thankful for all the job you guys have done! Keep up the good work! It’s so nice to see a channel that genuinely wants to provide support and info for people.
I love how my parents always says that i am wrong when i say: "Teenagers can have depression", but i actually face it everyday, all my friends have depression and im like their psychologist, since their parents says that they are just trying to get atention for they. Also, if you are having a hard time, do something you like and enjoy! I used to have depression when i was a bit younger and when i was at my limit, I would always do things that i liked to do, like listen songs, watch food channels or just draw.
@@tanyaennis890 Very much the same, I would always, for as long as I remember, ask my friends about their problems and I would not want to share my own depressive thoughts, as to not make them anxious for me or bring their mood down due to how depressive the thoughts can get, but I am very thankful to my two coursemates that wanted to listen to my depressive thoughts just a couple of days ago about the lowest point in my life and they wanted for me to share all the details I had about the thoughts and they were also the ones that convinced me to write an email to our uni psych consult.
I never left my room, and only left to go eat, bath, or clean the house but not my bedroom. My clothes were never where they belong and I sometimes ate too much or barely ate at all. Oh and I really hated talking to people if I didn't see a need to. Especially strangers
@@charkoldoesstuff well I hope you are able to talk to someone about it when you are ready. I went to see a therapist and I'm on antidepressants now... But I'm not sure how much they are helping and getting some things off my chest by talking to my mother and the therapist really helped. I have started facing the things that make me feel so miserable instead of just drowning myself in them and shutting people out. But there's still a long way to go in terms of opening up. It's hard unlearning many years' worth of emotional defense mechanisms
That is literally everyday, and then there is school. When I have to speak or choose to speak I can feel them staring at me. There are reasons I like being alone in my room where nobody can bother me. ( my very messy room that my mom nags at me about every day )
I am here just to say something that if any of you will be ever needing my help, just let me know because I am also suffering through all these without having friends and siblings, so stay strong and hold on because I am one among you. I pray for all of you. Good luck!
@@tanyaennis890 aah school can be the worst on some days. I have the tendency of putting up a fake-happy-persona just so others don't feel uncomfortable or get worried about me, and it is so exhausting. My room ends up being the only place in which I feel that I can be my true self , without being afraid of possible judgment.
You honestly hit me at every, and I mean, every single one of those marks. Lack of sleep, "Laziness" that isn't, pretty much all of it. I myself have subconsciously known that all those time's I've joked about my depression were cries for help from said subconscious. I never wanted to believe it. I just wanted to believe I was somewhat fine, or at least more stable than being depressed, but I guess not. ..idk what to think of myself or my condition now tbh.
Yeah same people asked if I depressed because of things I did or said I said no I thought I didnt I thought I was fine, I need a shield from my emotions
"It's normal. You're just going through puberty." "Stop being so sensitive!" "Why are you so lazy?" "You don't apply yourself and need to work harder in school!" "Why can't you get grades like your cousin? She's going to med school on a scholarship!" All things I heard when I tried to tell my parents something may be wrong. I was diagnosed as bipolar in my late 20s.
Or the things like "You aren't really interrested in that, change your carieer choice" , "I don't care about X's grades, you only scored that !" "Your friends aren't good, they bring you down." Please dad and mom, stop saying you don't care about other grades when whenever anyone do better than me you repeat it again and again. Why do you only remember that time I failed while I literraly always am in the top students ? Virtual hug for you, hope your life is better now.
@@lechatrelou6393 it is. Medication, therapy and education have helped tremendously. Sometimes, I wonder if things would've been different if I'd gotten help back then. But that time is over. I hope you're doing better as well.

I could really use someone to talk to. I have friends and siblings, it’s just I feel like I can’t talk to them or they wouldn’t understand the things I’m feeling. I hate that I feel so trapped and so negative all the time.
@@hot_woody No worries friend! We all are here for you so you can feel free to be open to us. We are here for you and let us know if you will be needing anything!
I remember being clearly depressed as a child and teen. Isolating, sadness, crying, low self esteem, low to no self confidence. The adults around me were so wrapped up into their dumb shit, my apparent very real depression was ignored or seen as just being a bitchy teen girl on her period when I was in fact suffering fron ptsd from sex abuse, depression from being abused in my home, witnessing abuse, constantly moving, no stability, drug addict irresponsible parents
3:40 I want to share an experience of mine back then. From Elementary (Grade 3) to Junior HS (Grade 10), I always failed in Mathematics. I felt like every year, I already knew that I would attend Summer Class. I lost the motivation to do my best when my parents got angry at me most of the time they see my grades or anything that was related to my Math subject and when they got used to seeing it. I got used to having negative thoughts every time there was a quiz or an exam coming up. I always thought that my best was already the best but I would lose my self-confidence when the people around me would say that "my best" wasn't the best. But I was able to safely graduate and got back up standing. My parents may be disappointed but they never left me at all. My close friends were there to encourage me or help me during the times I was in need of help or motivation. Their support was there to help me. To those who are struggling and in need of help, I hope you guys can do it and you would have the strength to deal the problems and obstacles you guys are facing. I am also back in this kind of scenario right now since I am in college hehe.
I did nothing wrong I'm 15 year old teen girl who is introvert and an average student but no one loves me if it sounds childish no it's not childish I'm feeling really low from days now but today i just broke down in tears i can't explain this feeling but it's so bad i did nothing wrong I'm a nice girl but still i get nothing but this depression and sadness i really don't deserve this i want to live but I'm just tired of living.........i really want someone to give me and hug and tell me that everything is going to be alright but no one cares I'm just all alone.....
3 Quotes to Live By: 1) "Don't compare yourself to someone else, compare yourself to your yesterday's self." 2) “You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending” 3) "Once you decide your lifes purpose, you will only have to pack one thing: "Your Heart."

This is the most relatable video I’ve ever watched. I’m 15. My mom doesn’t “believe” in therapy and threatens me with therapy whenever she doesn’t like something I did. I wish she wasn’t like that. I would talk to my dad but he’s doing bad financially and wouldn’t be able to afford therapy for me. I’ve been through a lot of abuse from my moms past husband (for 10 years) and luckily we left him. But I feel like there’s something horribly wrong with my mental health but I don’t know how to get help.
I'm 16 and I'm also going through depression. What helps me is going outside and taking deep breaths and just letting my heart breath so I can get the emotions out. Find something that helps you relieve stress, like working out, doing yoga, dancing or drawing and anything else you feel that helps you get through the day. But Dont let the depression control you. Depression is something that helps you see what you have to do next. Depression can become an illness when you just let it control you, Dont let it control you. After you get through this stage you'll become strong mentally.
I am here just to say something that if any of you will be ever needing my help, just let me know because I am also suffering through all these without having friends and siblings, so stay strong and hold on because I am one among you. I pray for all of you. Good luck!
This is something parents need to watch. They should also understand what causes depression. They think just because they give us a "good" life or "comfortable" life, we shouldn't have depression. I don't know how to explain to them without them getting mad. But for me, my parents are the reason I feel somewhat depressed.
I am here just to say something that if any of you ever will be needing help, feel free to ask me because I am also among one of you and without friends and siblings. So don't be afraid and feel free to be open to me anytime without hesitation. Always here for all of you as long as I am alive and I pray for all of you.

Thank u so much Sis for telling that everything that wrong happens or things I find difficult concentrating is not my fault ... I just need a break ..... Thank u so much for making this video..😊
As an adult I was diagnosed with depression because my symptoms got really bad, and I always thought I was happier as a teen... but this video is literally ticking all the boxes of my Teenager years....
Depression affects your mood, thoughts, feelings, behaviors and physical health. Severe depression can result in losing the ability to feel pleasure in the things you once enjoyed. It can also cause you to withdraw from your social relationships even from people to whom you are closest.👍
That Me and My mom who isn't even concerned about what's happening with me for a year now. She doesn't see how i feel...maybe because i'm hiding it everyday with a smile but inside i'm dying...

Oh this is so me I have stopped doing so much things I loved go back like 2 years I can could atleast 25-30 things I quit doing I'm scared of life of society of 'today'
hi Psych2Go! i'm currently trying to build up the courage to ask my parents for a diagnosis for depression, it's very hard but your videos help me a lot! they helped me realize that i may have depression, and educated me a lot about other mental health issues as well! thank you!
Yea i have tried to tell my parents about me mental illness getting bad to worse for years it's been 3 years and now that i have 3 illnesses im just done trying to make them understand just because they are desi and always tell me" what will the people say" and" your just 15 " "your just a child stop making such a big deal about it" "shut up" and " it's just a phase" " your a teenager it's normal"
@@sofiakhan8491 exactly this is also the reason I just don’t give my true opinions, feelings, or thoughts to my family because they just shrug It off saying “you don’t knowing anything about the real world” or “What reason so you have to be sad, you have your parents and a house to live in” or “I didn’t have these things that you have when I was your age” After the first 2 times of willing trying to get help I just stopped and just played (and still playing) the happy kid that they want me to be
thank you for letting me know that im not alone experiencing sudden depression, its true that i dont feel like lazy but also i dont feel like i can do anything
Uhm I feel sad cause this is relatable:( plus people don't take teenagers' depression seriously and especially schools and teachers. And when u do open up to people they're like "you're just overthinking" anyways I hope everyone who's going through this gets better soon 💓💓💓 you are very brave.

When I was 16, my parents were yelling at me about my poor grades (again) and demanded to know why I was such a lazy good-for-nothing. I tearfully told them that I was depressed. My fathered screamed in my face, "GET OVER IT!!!" Somehow, I started feeling better after I got away from them. 🤔
The thing is, I look really calm on the outside, but inside, I'm lonely and depressed, shy and anxious, longing for friends and people, but pushing them away because of fear of betrayal and anxiety.
The thing is that even when you have the perfect life, the perfect family, house, friends, lover, job, children... You can still get it. You can still become depressed for no reason at all. Nobody's bullied you, harassed you, ignored you, or did you dirty... blah blah, that doesn't mean you will stay happy with what you have. It might still happen no matter what, and if it doesn't, well, I guess I wasn't the lucky one. I know so because I always thought my life was perfect, until depression came along.
Average parent quotes - "You're being silly, you're fine" - "Stop it. You're not depressed" - "You're always on that phone/device" - "You need to stop. I was never depressed, so why are you?" - i'm not too sure if all adults say this but i'm assuming some do
Exactly. And even when you relate to the signs, you still think that you don't really have depression, you refuse to believe, or someome say that you aren't depressed

Is there anyone else you can talk to about therapy? It takes time for some people to understand and support therapy, while others support it wholeheartedly. What about talking to your friends?
I displayed many of these traits as a teen, though it was my introverted nature more than my depression (which was present, but not a problem until after the brain injury at age 15). I was happiest when focused on myself, my schoolwork, or my pets, though my family made sure I got enough human interaction to balance my Me Time.
4 years ago, when I was 13 I had to face depression. and the scariest part was i didn't even know what I was going through until I began healing slowly. to anyone who is going through the same, know that you're not alone and you're not burdening anyone by taking to them about your mental state. i can understand that it's hard to speak up when you are depressed, but it's still important to overcome depression. don't give up because things will get better even it doesn't seem so... try your best to communicate with someone who is trustworthy and you are comfortable with. hope you can overcome depression like I did.
I'm not sure if i'm Depressed but i don't want to tell my mom to go check it out. I'm pathetic and i'm enought burden to her...her life would be better and happier without me. Just her and my brother...I'm sorry for being a burden... I'm sorry for being pathetic... I'm sorry for being disappointment... I'm sorry that i was born... I'm sorry that I existe... I'm sorry for everything...

I hate it when older people say "what do you have to be depressed about? You have so many wonderful things and you're not depressed, you're just ungrateful" you need to learn that depression is a thing that many people feel and many of those people don't know they're feeling it Like up until now I thought I was just sad and sad alone But when I listened to this video and all of these signs aligned with what I'm feeling it's just like realising that you failed a test, you're afraid to tell anyone because they'll attribute it to laziness But know that I feel your pain because I'm going through that exact situation right now You're not alone
Thanks a lot for this video. This is very helpful stuff. I'd like to add to what can add to teenage depression as well: in modern culture teens and young adults are not taken serious enough, or not at all. I'm not American and even in my country it happens too, especially towards girls. It's really sad because at that age they are insecure already as they are just because of their age. I got the feeling it's for a huge part because of the lack of respect towards teenagers in general by the lack of understanding from adults or jealously towards the young for them being young. And that teens are hypersensitive to what others may or may not think of them makes this even worse, because they have yet to learn that it doesn't have to matter to them what others may or may not think of them. I think this is where the teenage attitude of 'I don't care' comes from and frankly, I can't blame them.
Just turned 20, I still experience ALL of these 😵💫. I got a little gut going on and right before I started classes again, I started to go to the gym, which I haven’t in years, and now I feel a little better whenever I go, physically and mentally.
The fact that I can relate to most of these signs- I always tell myself I'm mentally healthy, but I guess I was just being in denial. The reason why I'm depressed is because of the amount of school work given to us. I always tell my mom how I'm tired of doing homework and that I have no motivation to finish them, but she just keeps saying that I should have did my homework instead of "playing games", when in fact, I stopped because I've been busy lately. Honestly music and art have helped me cope up with the situation I'm dealing with at the moment. It just gives me peace whenever I listen to music while I draw. For anyone dealing with depression, I hope you'll get through this soon! I'll be praying for you all! :)
Sometimes the only thing we need is a break. Away from everything that doesn’t involves our interests. It may includes school, environment, so called friends. Andd frustration is that knowing this we are still unable to offer ourselves those precious moments to enjoy ourselves and to be who we actually are.
I am here just to say something that if any of you ever will be needing help, feel free to ask me because I am also among one of you and without friends and siblings. So don't be afraid and feel free to be open to me anytime without hesitation. Always here for all of you as long as I am alive and I pray for all of you. Shall Allah open all the doors for you!
Yep summer is already over first weeks back I'm already stressed and behind on assignments. I'm never gonna get caught back up I dont understand it and I have responsibilities with school and at home and with out of school activities
i never really thought that i had depression. i haven’t been eating a lot lately and i’ve been having headaches. so, my mom took me to the doctor. the doctor said that my blood sugar is low and that’s why i’ve been having headaches. he also said that my school may be the reason on why i’ve been so drained out lately. my mom told me that i’ve been really gloomy and moody. she suspected me of having depression but i denied it. turns out, she was right. thank you so much for this video. now, i’ve became self aware of my depression. i’m scared to tell my mom and i will when i’m ready. this video made me really emotionally. thank you.
I have MDD, GAD and ADHD. My symptoms are different -tiredness -sensitive to hate/criticism -I don’t have that bad of grades -irritability -anger -loss of control -hyperactive or so tired to where I can’t do anything -shivers and “tics” -pain -lack of eating
Even little childes can get depression! Please take them serious! They need your support! I can't understand how adults/parents are like "Nah...you are not depressed! You are still to young!" It doesn't matter how old you are! Instead show them that you love them.
Recently, I've been feeling very much consumed though I don't do anything at all. My exams are starting after 3 days and I haven't prepared a single thing! I used to have an emotion of fear especially at times like these but now I feel like it's fading away. I feel weary thinking about my future cuz I'm not able to focus on anything which had a great downfall in my grades. I always keep seeking for an escape but end up regretting cuz I get too much obsessed that it's hard to do anything else. I constantly feel like missing something/someone though I've got nothing to miss like that. As if it's becoming harder to live and keep going.
I am here just to say something that if any of you will be ever needing my help, just let me know because I am also suffering through all these without having friends and siblings, so stay strong and hold on because I am one among you. I pray for all of you. Good luck!
This makes so much sense in my case. I stay in my room almost EVERY DAY, and I mostly come out for dinner and/or when my parents turn on Pandora, or I might come out on my own for other reasons. I can also be irritable or emotional, especially when I'm sick, and sometimes I can't handle criticism. If I post something on Reddit, and it gets at least ONE comment with the wrong idea, like I accidentally attacked someone or just said something wrong, I take the post down before it gets out of hand. On an unrelated-to-social-mefia note, I'm the first of three daughters, and sometimes I worry that I'm not doing a great job as an eldest sister, especially when I do or say something upsetting to my youngest sister and I get reprimanded for it. Another thing is that I have one of the best grades in my school, but sometimes I feel unmotivated to get my work done, I get distracted on my phone or laptop often, and when I AM working, I feel like I have to get it all done, even if it's barely due yet. My parents and my teachers keep saying I don't have to worry about getting everything done on time, but my school brain says otherwise. As for the growing pains, I tend to feel indigestion on rare occasions and I'm currently taking medicine for heartburn, as I also feel warm in my throat. Yeah, while I'm a really cheery person, there's a lot of emotional stuff going on beneath the surface.

What I learned with this channel so far : I'm either depressed or a psychopath and I have low chances of being in love. At least I'm not an idiot yet. And good video as always 😁
As a 19 year old just graduating highschool I have to admit things have been feeling dark lately but the way I'm getting through it right now is surrounding myself with things I enjoy like rollerblading, lifting, games & going outside helps alot with feeling down & most importantly i think a daily routine helps keep me from feeling like theres nothing to do latee in the day
I wish i could talk to my parents about what i feel without being scared to get scolded or misunderstood, my teachers think i am just making excuses and i dont have friends i can depend for help.
I don't want to self-diagnose myself with depression, but I've been through some rough times where I'm just tired and want to flip away all my schoolwork, but I also need them to get a job. I can't really open up about the pressure since- honestly I don't trust my friends and family to handle it well So I just... Well... Became my own therapist. It works on some occasions, I can sometimes calm myself down but other times I just feel dumb and lonely. Like- how sad can you be that you have to counsel yourself with yourself?
If you're suffering from depression and/or is going through a hard time right now, just know that you're not alone and everything will be okay! Take time to listen to yourself and your mental health. When feeling overwhelmed, remember that you matter and you deserve all the happiness in the world. There are a lot of inevitable burdens in life, but you have gone through each one of them and have been there for yourself since Day 1. Please stay strong and take a deep breath. Although the saying "Things will get better," seems too promising, it is not. If you ever feel like everyday is the same or not progressing well, then it only indicates that it is the beginning. It is not at the stage where your life will turn around positively yet, but it is okay. Time heals and before you know it, you will be much happier again! Just know that there is hope and you are an incredible, amazing person. I am proud of you and stay strong! 💖💖
I feel like whenever I paint I instantly feel so tired it’s my favorite hobby tho. but since I stay in my room a lot, and don’t try to even make friends at school. I have decreased in talking with people but yet I crave someone to make time for me well for them to hang out with me. but it never happens sometimes when I feel like doing my hobbies lack of motivation hits me

1:51 "They themselves so afraid that they avoid doing anything they really love". That hit because that is happening to me rn. Recently i quit Taekwondo due to low self-esteem and self-worth, everytime i make a mistake during training it feels like im worthless and people are probably laugh at me for my mistakes because of what " they" did during my 2nd training "they" laugh at every time i do something wrong it just makes me so self conscious. When i told "them" that i'll be quitting they just ask why, i didn't want to tell them the actual reason so that's why i stayed silent and told them "it's just so tiring". Now " they notice that lost a lot of weight that's how much of an impact on me. I just told them that i don't feel like eating. What's bad is that i started feeling this when i was 12 due to "them" saying mean comments like "ugly" "over reactive" and many things like when i'm just trying to help and "they" go "ARE YOU STUPID?! ARE DUMB WHY CAN'T YOU DO IT RIGHT?! " those words really hurt the most now im just afraid to help and try to avoid those comments and stay silent. Those words really hurt me and the reason why i have such low self-esteem and self worth
