Why do you let the actions or lack of actions of other people affect you? I stopped giving a flying fuck when I was in the 6th grade, and ever since then I have never once had a single depressing thought. Why do you guys care what other people think? In NO FREAKING WAY can it affect the outcome of your life. You control it, so why do you kids always get depressed.. its just so... weak

Dude. Chill. Some people can't help it if they get emotionally unstable. Give them a break and pull the dildo out of your ass.

Well, personally, I think you should possibly pick up a book on psychology. You don't chose to be depressed, and most of the time it isn't because of what someone thinks about you. Also, most of the time you can't even help caring about what others think when you have certain mental disorders.

Its just so pathetic though. All you have to do is shut out the rest of the world and your problems (emotional at least) will be over.

I am glad it is so easy for you.  
For others.. it isn't so easy. Pretty much everyone knows that the things people think of you aren't going to affect the outcome of your life, but it still makes you feel bad.

Also, depression isn't just about what people think of you. In fact, I would say most of the time it isn't.  

Like someone said above.. pick up a book on psychology. It could help you understand it better and stop judging people.

Not if you have a problem with your brain chemistry.

actually, it can. if someone is telling you everyday that you are pathetic, useless, worthless, no one cares about you, you're fat, etc, you WILL come to believe it, and you'd have to have an iron will to not be affected by it in some way.

We can. Your right. It's all our actions and our thoughts. nobody's perfect. I don't even know why that word was invented. It has a meaning. You don't let negative thoughts into your head. I Can't get them out. You seem like a happy person. Help me out then.

we give in to what others say because they won't let us forget it. and eventually they will say it so much that we will start believing it. and it may be weak but being weak will mean soon enough you will become strong and stronger then you

You don't need an iron will, you just need a will period. Just find maybe 1 or 2 friends who you know wont insult you, and you're good to go.
