I'm feeling pretty sad lately. Could I be depressed?


Question:
I broke my arm a couple weeks back, and so I'm stuck in the house like a caged bird while everyone around me has fun. I NEED to break the cage, but I can't. On top of this, since I became a teenager, my parents have automatically stopped trusting me. Please help!

Answers:
I am sorry about your broke arm.I broke my ankle as a teenage and it sucked..Anyway.why can't you go out..you may be limited but surely your good friends can drive you around or hang with you..(just don't injure yourself)..as far as trust.are you trustworthy?..have your parents a reason not to trust you?..are you the oldest?..I was a under a higher state of suspicion as the first born so I had to set a good example..I am afraid these days there is more to worry about as a teenager and I am sure they are looking out for your best interest (it doesn't seem this way right now) but set a good example, be polite and work with your folks and they will gain trust by example.remember they were teenagers too. I hope you heal quickly and can enjoy the summer.

Other Answers:
Show your parents you can be trusted. You are not depressed, just feeling sorry for yourself. I guess you keep changing your question and modifying it because you just wanted sympathy instead of helpful advice. I am real sorry for you but I hope you can find something productive to do. If you think you are hanging around yahoo and the computer to much, you probably are. Don't feel depressed about it, just find something to do that you can feel good about. You got a lot of good advice here!

When I was a little younger I was diagnose with depression. The smallest thing put me in a sprial of depression. I was a stright a student then I changed schools and that 1st week I refused to attend school. I didnt want to talk to my friends and My boyfriend was the last person I would speek to . Even thought I was in the same town I thought my life was over now looking back at it dosent seems like such a big deal but when your younger it seems like the world. I would recomend that you talk to your parents event thought I know that it is hard. Seek a counseler even in your friends or just any one you can trust you can even e-mail me if you just need some one to vent to You may be mildly depressed. Due to your recent circumstances, it could be considered "situational depression". But why are you "stuck in the house like a caged bird"? A fractured arm doesn't mean total paralysis. But if you say that you are stuck then find something to do around the house. One thing that might help is to work on your relationship with your parents. You may be able to improve the trust factor during your confinement. Take care of that arm!


hey ..its the right time when you can build trust and make your parents trust your maturity..make them informed during these days that you wish to learn the up and down of this world independently and that you have courage and their support to face any odds.simultaneously you can invite your friends at your home where you all can gossip and chill out..Incase you need some privacy, then call your friends on phone or may be chat with them online..If nothing works out,then just stick on youqa.com..here you shall surely find new and nice friends..
Take care..
