ok, im fed up of feeling like this and i just need to tell somebody..
round about last easter everything changed, i used to be happy with life, but then first i got dumped by someone i am still in love with, then i got dysentery from contaminated water which wasnt pleasant, but after that period of crapness things never got better. even though i wasnt ill anymore, and i have no reason to feel down, i feel crap all the time. like school.. i used to love it, and now even though i wouldnt want to leave, i dont want to be there either. things i used to love like horse riding and hockey i can no longer be bothered to do, which is crazy because it just means i sit at home bored out of my mind. and im always tired, i find it difficult to get to sleep, but once i need to sleep for about 12 hours, yet im still exhausted when im awake. when im with my friends i feel almost happy, and im almost the confident girl i used to be, i thrive being around people, but when im not with them i hate having to do stupid things like pay for things at a till, it even scares me going into a supermarket on my own. argh, and im no alcoholic, one of my friends has an alcohol problem, and ive seen how its hurt not only her but the people around her, but i seem to look forward to going to parties and getting drunk simply because i dont feel sad. i generally just feel like shit all the time, and with that comes a massive sense of guilt because i really shouldnt be sad, its not like i have a bad life or anything. whats wrong with me, is this depression? and i cant tell my parents itl just worry them, or theyl think im just in a bad mood. but how can a bad mood last for months and months with no sign that it will go away? i feel like im stuck in a rut.. and sorry this is so long and rambling.. its just the first time ive let it out. oh well. il just go make a cup of tea.

It's always embarrassing to tell your parents such personal things in life. However, as embarrassing as it may feel, you have nothing to be embarrassed about. Many people have depression, some people get them when they're young while others get them much more later in life.

However, I believe you should seek help instead of just thinking it'll go away. While it may go away by itself, there's also a chance that it'll just get worse. Lots of people need help at least once in their life. You're just at a time in your life where you may need help from other people.

Talking to a professional would help you much better than I can. I myself am only 16. Simply talking to your best friend won't really help because she may not know what to do. A professional, on the other hand, will know what to do, or at least have an idea of what you may need.

thanks for the reply :)im 16, and i thought about telling my mum.. but idk.. it sounds stupid but im kinda embarressed.. ive always been the happy-go-lucky one to be there for other people.. and now.. i dunno :/ at the moment im pinning my hopes on it getting better by itself... and im not sure if the break up itself started it, but it was certainly around that time that things went bad, and a few days after i broke up with him was when i got ill for weeks, so it was sortof an out of the pan into the fire situation. dating is an idea which i will try, and ive just told my best friend too, and she said whilst she would be there for me that i should seek help from elsewhere too. its just so hard

Longer than a month. It was about three months before my boyfriend and I used it. but sometimes even that isn't enough. You have to make sure it's real, and not just words...and not just a big crush.

cute- attractive in a playful, adorable way.

hot- mix between sexy and beautiful

sexy- more of a pure attraction to sex/intercourse (big breasts and ass, etc.)

fine- attractive in a preppy proper way

pretty- mix between cute and sexy

gorgeous- mix between cute and beautiful

beautiful- attractive in terms of human perfection (my personal preference)

I know these definitions are kind of brief and it's hard to explain, PM me if you want a more in-depth description.
