Sometimes i get depressed..

I have everything I could have ever wished for.

Amazing friends, supporting family, The best boyfriend ever and my life is generally something to be proud of.

However...

I sometimes find myself going into serious stages of depression. The worse being where I am crying so much, I can not move from the place I am in.

I then find myself thinking of things that could happen and lonliness sneaks over me.

To be honest I am a very happy person, I find myself smiling at random things, just because I can.

But there are those moments I can just cry for hours, mostly over nothing too serious.

Is it normal that I am so happy and still suffer depression to that extreme, or am I mentally messed up?

  • I think I know what you're talking about because I've felt like that for a really long time. But just remember that it could be worse. I took advantage of what I had, I was happy and got too comfortable, I am single now and I hate it. I realized how much better things actually were for me and that I should have been thankful. Just enjoy what you have while you still have it. ):

    You need to go see a doctor. Trust me. People really have the need to correct chemical imbalacrs.

    I found myself in the same situation (well, similar). Then I began to spin way out of control. I went to my doctor and she put me on Prozzak. It really helped a lot. I'm not saying that's the answer, since everyone is different, but I just thought I'd share my situation with you. Good luck!

    it could simply be the "time of the month"
    However, i believe that you may have a small dose of depression. listen to some nice music, watch a couple happy movies and maybe hang out with your friends more than usual(i always feel better in a group when i have this issue). If the problem persists then see a counselor.

    It's normal to get upset about life. Sounds to me like you should talk to someone in person about it (i.e, a counselor). You want to make sure this isn't something chemical (which is quite possible). Hormones also play a huge role. I recommend seeing a doctor and making sure that all of your ratios match up. I think you will be fine. Even the peppiest of peppies get a little frustrated sometimes. Good Luck!
