~Depression~

Im going to counterpoint what Jordan, and Rachelle said about depresssion...
First of all I agree that we should have fun being teenagers and all that crap, but how do you what other people are going through?
I mean seriously, some people have chemical imbalances in their brains that force them to be depressed. In that case it's not there fault, and here you guys are telling them that being depressed it stupid.
Then, here you have people who have reasons to be depressed. Unlike you guys who lead perfect lives, that dont know what it is like when your dad's die. I am so jealous you guys have dad's you dont even know. Then, you have people whose brothers and sisters do drugs. You have people who live in the foster system that dont know what it is like to have a REAL family; someone to love and care about them. You dont know what is like to have your sister run off at only 17 to go live with her boyfriend. You dont have sisters that cut, and stop eating.
I dont think you guys understand what it's like to live with crap like that going on.
Not to mention the whole cutting thing. Cutting makes you feel better, its taking the emotional pain and turning it into physical. It really does make you feel better. Then, there are people who had cut just once and not they are addicted to it. Now, everytime they get depressed they crave cutting themselves. Like a drug.
It makes me mad that you guys would sit there and say that about people when you dont know what its like.
