Am I Mental??


Question: well thing is, I'm 16, just so u konw. I go through this thing where some days (2 or 3 times a month) I hate myself, everyone i konw and the whole universe. I just feel so depressed and down, but when I try realizing why I feel this way I can't find a reason execpt that i just do. I feel like I want to escape everyting that evolves around me.

The wierd thing is, I generally have a happy, normal and peaceful life with loving friends and family, but I still feel this sort of inner hatred in me.

Is this somehting to be concerned about. and if so what should I do?
Answers: Take time out to realize what is making u depressed. There is something that is triggering u to feel this way. What is missing from your life? Why do you hate yourself? N what can you do to improve your view of yourself? Only you can answer these questions and once you find out the answers then you can make a plan to change what has been bothering you. Hope that helps and good luck!
This sounds like typical teenage angst to me. Nothing to worry about. It will pass in time. If the 2-3 days/month are consistent in their timing, these feelings may be exacerbated by PMS.
Whoa - lets cut the BS. Yeah it's normal and it's stress.

The need to achieve,
The need to succeed,
The need to be seen, heard, liked, needed, wanted, loved, admired, etc etc etc.. by an ever larger group, and mostly you are now seeking - Who am I? What am I made of?

My advise - get out there and give it all you got and remember if it was easy it would not be fun, for long anyway. Oh yes - and be good to people, it's a small world.

PS. I'm Mental, I know it, but I also believe most people are in someway or other.
I'm sixteen too! I go through a very, very similar thing. Sometimes I just feel completely angry and depressed, and often quite suicidal.
But trust me, I've had it worse.
Last two years, almost every single night I would have a panic attack, and occasionally during the day as well. I would become depressed a lot more often, and just hate myself and the world.
Most of it has passed.
