Teen Depression—Why? What Can Help?

WHEN I have a bout of depression,” says Anna, “I have no motivation to do anything, not even the things I usually love to do. All I want to do is sleep. I often feel that I am unlovable, worthless, and a burden to others.”

Lost a great friend.

I recently received news that my best friend passed away from heroin laced with fentanyl at age 31 on jan 10th. I was in shock and felt like i was in a bad dream. I hadn't heard from him in almost 6 months and figured he was out slamming dope because in the past he would tend to avoid me and my mother (who was like a 2nd mom to him) because he didn't want us seeing him strung out and didn't want to ruin our relationship of trust.

Dirge without music -- Edna St. Vincent Millay

A fragment of what you felt, of what you knew,

A formula, a phrase remains,—but the best is…

Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide

Her doctor got her hooked on pain medication and she was addicted most of my life. These doctors who were suppose to help her ended up killing her in the end. I also…See More
