Another burning question, know of anyone who started to experience depression at age 14?
14 seems to be the age where some people I know started to become depressed or other mental illnesses

@Ladyofemotions I still battle depression, it runs very badly in my mom's family.

@AerynAVA Yeah, I've been trying to work that out. Working hard to see a correlation between the two

@James1956 Okay, sometimes I wonder if it's related to puberty. Did they change after a while, or are they still suffering from it?-

Yeah.. I swear it was related to flooding hormones that triggered it somehow and the thought patterns stuck through adulthood.

@Ladyofemotions shouldn't you give it another try.. maybe help you get out of that rough spell you are in. You don't have to stay on it.. but would be a shame if you hurt yourself without even giving thrm another try. Most places have free clinics they won't charge you. I've used them when I was between insurance before
yeah 15 for me. it was triggered by environmental factors....family deaths, and i was hospitalized for a while not to mention that was when all my friends sorta left...i was diagnosed soon after that

I began to become depressed at age 10. Thats when my grandmother died. After that I started feeling sadder and never knew why.

@fdbgljkfsdbgkljfsdbgkljS :-( Grief maybe. I've just not too long experienced it
@Ladyofemotions probably. A shit load of my family members died on August. I stopped caring if they die or not, and Im scared that Im losing my humanity.

Yeah...every teenager

@Goralski I mean clinical depression, not teenage angst or being miserable with the world

@Mrsbetweenfatandfit How are you now?
Mrsbetweenfatandfit · 26-30, F
@Ladyofemotions I have faded in and out through the years.
Ladyofemotions · 31-35, F
@Mrsbetweenfatandfit Okay. A bit of both for me but I had to get help as my serotonin was extremely low.
