I am lazy but I have been lazy all my life haha I find it hard to be happy I just feel blah and i think i may have mild depression I have been bullied a little bit but that was a few years ago and yeah if anyone has suggestions I will be highly thankful

    If it bothers you but you don't feel it's very serious, Id' make an appt. with a counselor and talk it over. I bet it would help. You may have a touch of Dysthymia.

    Good advice from Alan. But if you can't afford to see a counselor read the CBT based book by Sam Obitz (www.tao3.com) and start doing the exercises in it and I think that will help you feel a lot better as well as teach you valuable coping skills for the rest of your life

    anything that has to do with depression is something you should take very serious. it sounds that may be the case and i know that schools offer counseling and i would definitely inquire and there is nothing wrong in doing so. talk to your mom or friends who you( know) will be sensitive and understanding and will be able to help. we all go through depression episodes that is normal, however, when that occurs don't brush it away even if you don't think it severe, you can even go to the school nurse where he or she will direct you the proper help as well. possible things you may want to consider is joining a club or do teen volunteer. do as many things you enjoy. I understand things right now are rough, but know that there are people who are concern and care. BUT do take care of it. take care from someone who cares ;-)

    Depression takes place when you are not able to tell your feelings to anyone. For a relaxed and stress free life try to come up with the things. There is a saying that “more you know about the problem, the better you will be able to fight it”. When you know the problem you solve that half.

    Over the years, their have been a lot of people who've felt mildly depressed and didn't realize it until they got better. They thought they were merely experiencing the blues.

    I understand that you said that you are lazy but to get over your depression, you are either going to either need to have a good streak of luck, or set some kind of a new important goal in your life and occupy yourself and mind while achieving that goal. The mind is very demanding and the depression could be coming from the lack of having new challenges in your life.

    Getting help can make you feel uncomfortable. But if you need to see a shrink, not getting the help you need by not seeking help is more scary.
