Lately I have been in kind of a rut. my depression is getting a lot harder to deal with and it is even hard sometimes to keep a smile on my face.
Many people know me as the happy and funny girl so I always feel as if I can't even frown around other people. It really gets hard when you can barely get up out of bed and then go around pretending like I am not upset at all. I know that the simple solution is to honestly just not care what they think and deal with it on my own terms but I don't want to seem like I am weak to them. I have spoken to a counselor but she sucked and I honestly feel as if there is no way to make this better.

Have you tried letting people in? Will talking about your depression thoughts help you? I feel a lot better when I talk about my issues and process them with someone. Sorry no good advice.

PM me if you want to talk. I think I can relate to you

That happens. The symptoms you mention in your other posts warrant speaking with a medical professional. Is that possible for you? Another option might be speaking with the school nurse.
