  remember the news article about the JC boy who committed suicide even though he had a really good life, doing well in school, doing well with friends, good at sports and stuff. no one really knew why he did such a thing but i think maybe he had been having depression for a long time and finally he couldnt stop himself....

  Sometimes the depressed acts normal and happy on the cover coz he/she doesn't want the whole world to label him/her as a depressive or psycho....sometimes he or she doesn't even know what's the cause of depression and it really gets frustrating when different people ask them "why?" again and again...
  
  to save all the trouble, they just keep quiet about their problems and act as per normal. but when they really cannot tahan anymore...they will eventually breakdown....

  Depression really need medication?
  
  I don't know if im under depression...
  
  but i've changed alot from a really out-going person and to a really care-less person...
  
  I do cry and all but i still lead a normal life like eating sleeping.. etc..
  
  What medication is it btw? Does it really helps? I know what's going on, as it whatever that happens you still must carry on and of course i've thought of suicide as a resort but after doing further thinkings.. i feel that i shouldn't let my parents down.. at least my family is gonna be sad if i die with no reason..
  
  Things hardly meant a thing now.. I'm living day by day hoping this pain goes, they say time heals everything.. but i don't think so..
  
  Also i've thought of going conselling, but i always find myself at the doorstep and not entering.. i don't wish to share it with anybody, i know i will find a way out for myself..

  most people mistook feeling down for depression.
  
  people suffering from depression cries easily and frequently avoid people and think of suicide.
