...See more just how do i know?? how do i know if i am depressed? ive been feeling off for a while now so i checked online for some information about it and i checked all the symptoms and all that, but how do i really know? i think this is a bit of a dumb question.. its just how do i know that this is real? am i really feeling this way? or feeling sorry for myself?? if its real am i just wondering if its not since becos maybe im in denial?? does me questioning if i am depressed mean that i am not?? since if you are you just know that something is off right?? is what im feeling real or is it just my adolesent mind coming up with these obscure notations?? many people say that people my age (teens) like to come up with these ideas since the media likes to romantise i guess the idea of mental illness. Im not sure if this is true or what. due to this reason, its been hard to open up to people for fear ill be judged or told that its true none of it is real or like your just a kid your not capable or feeling such emotions and for this im also scared im going to a doctor or asking my parents, so i came here. i know this is dumb and i dont mean to offend anyone by my question, i mean i know i am dumb for asking this, its just this is the only place i have so please help me..
