I get really depressed around this girl

there is this girl i know and every time i am around her i get really depressed, a feeling comes over me like i want to be around her forever because she is so cute

i asked her out and she said no but i still like to be around her, i also can't help but just stare at her, but i don't because that would be awkward so instead i try to ignore her so it doesn't look like i am obsessed with her

then when i leave i start thinking about killing myself and the feeling lasts for about a couple weeks, i sometimes lay on the floor and just cry for about 10 minutes thinking about her, i usually plan out my suicide and almost do it, until my depression goes away

i'm okay now because i haven't seen her for a while but i know if i'm around her again i will get super depressed and want to kill myself again

the weird part is that i actually miss the feeling i get around this girl and the depression, it just kind of feels magical and getting drunk and planning my suicide just gives me a kind of euphoric high, without this feeling my life is bland and boring, and i don't even feel like killing myself anymore which sucks

is it normal to feel this way?

    It's not about the girl, mate, it's about the feeling you get when you embrace life and death in the image of one girl, when one girl makes you feel so alive that you almost want to be dead. Its a paradox. but its the magic of passion. Dont ever lose it because if you do you lose yourself. and then life is not worth living.

    whew, can't believe i wrote all that piss but there you have it. Today's wisdom from King Spammy.

  • C'mon - this overblown fantasy and drama is something YOU have created around this girl. No wonder she said "no" to you - she has (and wants) nothing to do with it (or you). Go to your doctor right away & get help with your depression.

    It's VERY normal. And I know this is difficult because you firmly believe this girl is THE ONE. Let me guess, you don't even think about other girls do you?

    Growing up, I felt this way a few times about a certain girl and as much as you don't believe it and as cheesy as it sounds the fact remains there WILL be more girls!

    But I also know that knowing this won't help because you have your heart set on this girl. Maybe, MAYBE you still have a chance with her, so I'm not saying you should give up on her, just don't ignore all the other girls out there!

    Concentrate on doing something that you like and keeps your mind busy and believe me it WILL get better with time.

    sounds like a wierd addiction. think ur more additced to the routines of planning ur suicide ect. than being in love with the girl. try drugs, alcohol or exercising.

    I must admit, this is one of the strangest posts I have come across, you sounded preety normal until I read the latter part about you enjoying the feeling and how it gave you a euphoric high which is definitely NOT normal. However, the former part is normal...I once had a close friend and I loved being around her and all, though a lot of the times I felt sad/depressed for her and got the feeling of low self esteem. Quite honestly I think you are picking up on her energy and how she is feeling/thinking, if I were you next time u see her ask her how she really feels on a daily basis. You may be surprised...

    You sound a little manic and extreme but it sounds like a bittersweet kind of friend crush. You want to know her and be close to her and have her close to you so badly that you feel depressed in a sort of happy way. I have felt this before too, just try your best and become Good friends with her

    Hey everyone. I have the exact same problem. There's this girl. Cute, sweet, and funny beyond belief. I love her so much but she won't let me ask her the question. I don't know if she'll say yes. I don't know if she likes me that way either. I just keep hoping that it might be true. This just leaves me confused and depressed. I seriously considered committing suicide. I just. NEED her. Every time she's in my class I just love being around her. She makes me feel alive. She refines my world into such a point where it only revolves around her. And then. The class ends and we all head home. And here I am on a two week break. We've been keeping up by e-mailing for a bit but. I just don't know. I need help. And I found this.

    don't kill yourself, it's stupid. especially over a girl. I'f you're young, still in school, especially don't man. You only get one chance in life. Don't give up on yourself, just wait until life gets better. you'll regret ever thinking about it. by the way you're getting this from a cold hearted bastard. so if you're depressed, like i said, just cry and get over it. I'f you're emo, go ahead and kill yourself.

    the girl might not have anything to do with this. you might be projecting feelings on her as some kind of savior. you might need some meds bro.

    I don't think you can afford these feelings, especially when your work is involved. I went through the same thing and she took two years from me. If you insist on going through with this though, get an escape plan ready so you can get back on your feet.

    dude. I know how you feel.
    Going through the same thing right now.
    It's really normal, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Mines never gotten to the point where i've wanted to kill myself, but I have drank alchohol because of how bad the feelings were. It'll go away, just tell yourself she's ugly and a b*tch and you'll find someone better. and hopefully it will happen

    You're fixating on this one girl. It's not the end of the world if she doesn't like you like that. If you've been around each other for a while and she still isn't into you it probably means you wouldn't work well together anyway. All you say about her is that she's cute, this leads me to believe that you're objectifying her, turning her into a thing that you feel you MUST have. This is not healthy, you don't NEED things! And she's not a thing anyway! See her as a person, and then ask yourself if you have anything in common with this person, and if you want to be around this person. I'm willing to bet that you'll realise that you actually don't have much in common with her, which is why she isn't interested in you. Then go find a girl that you do have something in common with and doesn't make you feel shit.

    Being in love fucks with your brain and makes you feel as if you were on drugs, so yes, that's normal. Being that depressed, not so much. EVERYONE falls in love and loses a love and thinks it's the end of the world. However, if you are a teen ... teens' brains are dealing with so many hormones that if every teen was analyzed by a psychiatrist, by adult standards 99%% of them would be diagnosed with a mental illness. Go see a therapist and it will help. Lots of people have depression and it isn't too hard to deal with.

            I hope they never get together cause then they might have kids and that would be bad for the world to have a bunch of little crappers with flikr for a dad. but then again what the hell am I talking about flikr won't ever get near a flesh and blood woman in his lifetime.

  • If you get depressed around her she probably thinks your some kind of depressed loser. If you like her so much you should be happy around her. Try and show her your happy outgoing side she will like this better
