I'm sure this topic is always posted, but I wanted to say that I've been sorta depressed lately. I can't say my reasons are good - I recently broke up with my 4 year on-and-off boyfriend for the last time, I'm graduating soon and I'm scared, etc.... I feel ashamed that I've thought of suicide, though I know I could never actually do it. I feel like there are waves of good times and bad. Manic-depression runs in my family, but I'm too scared to tell my parents and I feel like a lost cause because of this. I also feel like I'm wasting my time being sad when there are millions of other people in the world who are worse than me (there are people starving all around the world, being tortured, etc.) It's just like, how can we live in this kind of world? HELP! (I apologize for rambling)

Deperession doesn't have to be justified. True depression, as a medical condition, comes from chemical imbalances in the brain. I was on Prozac myself back during a rough time in middle school, and it helped tremendously. Just don't be afraid to talk about it and seek help.

Don't feel bad. Why should you feel bad it's not your fault. It's normal for people to think about suicide.
