Hi Posted: 08-07-07 15:12pm
Shorty123, are you home alone? You need to
call someone to take you to hte hospital.
The hospital can get you the help you
need. Be it cleaning up the mess you've
madewith yourarms or the depression you
are feeling taht causes it. YOu need to
get mental help hon. You are only 13.....I
wish you were near, I'd come get you
myself. I was diagnosed with depression
about the same age. Don't listen to what
others say that the hospital will not help
you and that antidepressants oly mask the
problem......I've beeno nthem for years
now and I can cope with life. I no longer
hate to be living and feel I was only
taking up space. I have been in your
shoes. And honestly I do still have days
when I feel that way.....until others have
been in our shoes, htey have NO IDEA of
the way this makes us feel. You are
someone special, you do not see this
because of the depression, but htere are
lots of us out here who will continute to
instill this upon you until you get beyond
it. Believe in yourself......you need
help, please get it...Feel free to IM me
anytime you wish!

Your story kinda sounds like mine, except
I never cut myself. I went threw this a
lot one way I actually got over it is by
finding something I'm good at (graphic
design) & I have been doing it ever
sense. Try finding something your good at
& take your mind off everything. I
would recommend drawing or writing stories
because its like you can let your feelings
out. I hope it works (:

Great Idea Posted: 10-03-07 21:55pm
amanduhhbbyx brought up a great point.
Doing some sort of activity can really
ease up stress and help you become part of
something. I've tried a lot of
extracurricular activities and I'm also a
fan of numerous other extracurricular
activities. Pm me if you need ideas to
get yourself started. Kyle, you're only
13, there's a lot to look forward to.
Here's a few ideas:
1. Weight lifting (it made me feel strong
and improved my self confidence, got me in
shape, and gave me a positive outlet for
bad emotions, but do pm me if you choose
to do this since improper weight lifting
habits can hurt you)
2. Running (you can do this anywhere, if
you have a talent for running,
improvements will come really quickly)
3. Jump roping (not really a sport, but
you can add it to whatever exercise
routine you use, good since its great for
cardio/coordination and it is cheap to buy
a jump rope)
4. Martial arts (boxing, wrestling, mixed
martial arts, kickboxing, etc)-Good way
for boys with high testosterone and lots
of frustration (like myself) to let it
out. Also improved my self confidence.
The pain problem is the overwhelming
number of scams. In fact, most scam
martial arts centers are run by teachers
trained at another scam center and they
usually aren't even aware they are a
scam.
5. Swimming-Relatively hard to find a
place to train since pools aren't so
common, however, if you like this more
than anything else listed here, try it
out, it could be the sport for you
6. Football-Team cooperation, strength
gains. Problem is football can cause
serious injuries (like torn ACL), football
players can often act like jerks and bad
football players may influence you, at
high levels, football players are so heavy
and bulky that it isn't really healthy.
7. Chess-Might sound dorky, but some
people like myself are fascinated by it
8. Music (choir, orchestra, band)-Good way
to express your feelings, personally, I
wish I had joined band instead of
orchestra (which I quit after 3 years)
since band sounds louder
Well that's it for now, pm me for more
suggestions!
