That's not depression. That's being bored. You clearly haven't the slightest idea of depression.

Now, go ride your bike to a slushie stand. Get a slushie. Problem solved.

Listen to some music. Calm your spirit to calm yourself. Find a way of meditating that works for you.

Mate, there are always worser things in live than what you have. Atleast you live, atleast you have friends, and I'm sure your brother doesn't "hate" you. I can speak with you, but you'd probally prefer that private.

One symptom of depression is in a state of hurt. From this description, it doesn't sound like depression at all; it just sounds like you need something to do. If you are bored, work. Work for something you want, then when you get that something, use it. When you are bored of that, work for something else. Do not worry about your bro, do not worry about your "friends".

Don't die!
That is a permanent solution to a temporary problem...

Oh come on. Some people have depression until the day they die. That's such BS.

However, there are better reasons not to kill yourself.

Lol, killing yourself? At your age? You haven't even experienced life's problems. Good luck with that.

Anyways, killing yourself is pointless. I've tried to kill myself, and failed. Mostly because I don't like pressure on my neck. And I love myself.

It's a bad idea. And for you, live life. Then kill yourself.

I'm probably one of those people.

It's funny that people who have the actual problems can come up with solutions to overcome that problem, yet they can't overcome it themselves...

My first recommendation would be to see a psychiatrist. Find one that you feel comfortable talking to and be very open and honest with them. A psychiatrist is there to listen and help you identify what your problems may be. They do not prescribe medication so the approach is purely from analysis and understanding.

Obviously if there is a medical condition that exists then they may refer you to a psychologist who may determine that medication may be a treatment that will work for you. Again, you have to be very open and honest and it's critical that you only deal with a mental health professional that you can feel comfortable with.

To combat some of your depression on your own one of the most important things is to develop a daily routine. A lot of depression symptoms may arise out of boredom or a lack of stimulation. If you can develop a routine in your day it will help combat boredom as well as provide a variety of stimulation, keeping your mind off of the negative thoughts.

Picking up a new hobby can be a great help too. Find something new that you enjoy doing. Sometimes you may have to try a few things before you find something you like, but once you do stick with it. This works well with helping you develop a routine as well. At first set aside specific times of the day for trying new things, then when you find something you can allot time for that new activity.

Step 1: Don't worry.
Step 2: Be happy.

A slushie might help too.

That's not depression. Depression is a feeling of overwhelming sadness and hopelessness. I've been on that state many times (darn people!!). Because of the depression I sometimes think of suicide is better then living. I am not lying.

Read this. It explains better than I do.

I overcome the depression by just talking to people, listening to music, throwing tea to people(tea does calm people!). Stuff like that.

Heres how, Take anti depressant, and when that makes you have anxiety problems take anti anxiety pills.
