i often feel angry or unable to put effort into anyting. it is often a cycle were i am really posative and then i get low sometimes were i just sit around doing nothing. i think about disapeering, just walking out of the house, how ungrateful i am, if im stupid and i mull over things i have said over the day. I get so caught up in things i do or say. When i think i say something stupid during the day i cant stop thinking about it and always feel like i am doing something wrong or just plain stupid. i feel like i have nothing to offer anybody, i feel like school is a lot more effortthen it should be. i dont know why i always keep on feeling inferior to everybody else. i hate that feeling and i want to learn how to stop feeling that way

It definitely sounds like you struggle with some depression. The things you wrote are things people think when they are depressed. Whether you are depressed because you think those things about yourself, or you think those things because you are depressed, I don't have enough information to know. Very often, though, people believe they have no worth, or value because their parents or other people have treated them that way. We all learn to treat ourselves the way our caretakers treat us when we are young, so my first guess would be that you learned to think about yourself this way because you either are growing up with lots of criticism from the people you care about and spend time with, or you are growing up without the opposite--without encouragement and delight about who you are, believing in you, and being good role-models for you. Do you relate to any of this?
i believe that my parents try to encourage me a lot, support me and try to be good role models. their strict but they have good intentions. I havent had any tramatizing events happen to me. basically i dont have to worry abput financial problems, my parents arent divorced, i have had no deaths among my friends or family, ive never been abused, my parents are good people,i play soccer, i dont really have a problem with how i look(expet for the normal things like that dont really bother me so muchand i dont think about them 24/7) and i have no mental or physical disabilites So i dont really know what my problem is that causes me to think so negativley. i absolutly hate feeling sorry for myself too because things could always be a lot worse. do you have any other suggestions on what i can do to find out whats bothering me?
