Answers:
you may have mild depression. You really need to talk to your parents and see if you can go to the doctor to discuss it. Anti-depressants saved my life, but they are not the remedy for all of life's problems. Here's what I had to do:
1. Force yourself to get up everyday and do something to contribute to the household (laundry, dishes, etc..). It may not seem like a big deal to most people, but it really was to me.
2. Set your ultimate goal and then break that down to small goals. Set reasonable time lines. As you achieve your goals, your confidence will grow more and more.
3. Realize that we all change and evolve and none of us will ever be what we once were and we cannot change or undo our mistakes. Take your negatives and learn from them. Do not fail to recognize that mistakes are an integral part of growing and maturing.
My depression seemed to be the end of the world, but I got help and medication, forced myself to get out of bed and ended up helping to develop a peer cousneling group to help others with depression. You can take yoru experiences and help others that seem to be making your same mistakes. The youth groups are in dire need of good people.
