20 years... :)
all my life
I'm not depressed
like 2 years
How old am I? 23 years, 4 months, ...
not anymore, But for about 6 months recently.. thank god its over
Since I was 7 or 8
On and off since I was about 9. (I'm 16 now.)
5 years
Well... It's on and off for me.
When I feel bored, useless, and repetative about life, I get depressed.. which is usually during the summer (no school, barely see friends for me) or doing daily routines.
I guess, I was depressed when my mind set on this outlook, or when other people want me to "change" for the future.
long time 3yrs on off and then b4 that on off lexapro helps to keep it in check but still there its caused by the stupiidity of employers where i live
I've had depression symptoms since I was about 8 years old (25 years)... brought on by life circumstances and bad brain chemistry I guess.
Two months.. since school ended.
I need my friends!
My entire life.
I was first diagnosed with depression at age 9 and on the 15th of this month I will be 52. so it's been quite a few years. But I have chronic depression and it's sort of up and down. There have been times when it's really been bad and times when I felt more in control. But through all of that I've only been in the hospital for depression twice in the last 40 years so for the most part with therapy and medication I've been able to keep it mostly under control.
God Bless all of you. I know it's a terrible feeling. May Jesus bless you with many peaceful days in the future.
the longest amount of time was about 5-6 months.
