1. Yes.

2. Mostly from the events of that particular day may cause me some depression or emotional distress. Also, anything personal that significantly disturbs my emotional stability such as hearing some sad news about a close one or something along those lines. But I have medicine to help me from my bipolar disorder, so I may be a bit biased.

3. Life in itself.

4. Emotional distress and depression don't go hand in hand in my opinion. Depression, the feeling of great sadness, I think comes from a lot of things that just builds up and breakdowns the person's mentality and feelings. There are also other things that can contribute to it like a lot of sensitivity towards sad stories or news, chemical imbalance in the neurological realm, and depressing things that happen that may crush your hopes or dent your happiness. Emotional distress can just happen from struggle, anxiety, nervous breakdown, and etc. I don't know. I am no psychologist so I can't really tell you. This is what I think.

[sPark*]

Gender: Fm
Age: 16

1.Have you ever been depressed or in emotional distress? Not for long periods of time. It usually lasts like some number of hours.
2.if so, why? It is from pressuring myself to do better. It's from lack of sleep. It's from frustration that i can not tell my parents what i really want. It's from hating myself for being too scared to trust people (i have a lot of friends but no one extremely close), being so weak at times, and for lacking self-confidence.
3.what makes you sad? The realization that i do not have a friend that i can turn to when im feeling very down. Getting a bad result after expecting something better. Wanting something so bad but not being able to work towards it. Not being able to tell my parents what i really want.
4.what do you believe causes emotional distress/depression? Not having someone to talk to. Too much on your plate. Outside pressure. Pessimistic attitude.
