Answer 1

unfortunately, if you ever had depression, it&#039;s usually hard to just &quot;get rid of it.&quot; i&#039;m about your age, too, and from personal and recent experience, i know how hard it is to avoid depression at this stage. if you can push through these couple tough days, you may be able to get through it. if not, then make sure your counselor. earlier this year i was depressed, too. there was a friend that was being really fake with me, too, and that didn&#039;t help. in the end she got mad at me and didn&#039;t want to be my friend anymore. so instead of getting even more upset about it, i got a positive perspective and realized how i could be more of myself and happier without her pressing down on me. this point of view got me on a roll, and with the help of some friends i was able to get out of my depression. i was a lucky one. sometimes i&#039;ll get a period of a few days where that depression will creep up on me again, but if i can push past those then i&#039;m okay.

i really hope that this is one of those situations for you. one of the best things with to do with those &quot;fake&quot; friends, is make sure they know how they&#039;re acting to you, and they can either try to be more sincere to you or they can leave. your happiness is important.

good luck, and i hope i helped. =]

You&#039;re probably feeling stressed out because you want a friend to talk to.  I mean a real friend.  You want to hang around a person who understands what you are saying and going through and not blame you for every little thing in life.  You probably feel better after talking to the counselor because the counselor just let you talk.  I talk to my cousins and mom when I need to talk.  Some boys just don&#039;t understand what I mean. Girls do understand.

You&#039;re 15, in a stressful and constantly changing period of life with very limited coping skills. Prime breeding ground for depression. Yes, you&#039;re young. Find some better friedns if this one is being fake. Tell your counseler how much trouble you&#039;re having and see if they have some other suggestions (i.e. more frequent meetings) to help you through this rough patch without starting up a medication regime.
