uhm.i dont usually talk to people about my feelings but yeah..k here we goIm 13 and abou a year ago I watched my grandpa die..i havent quite been the same and i am rarely happy..is this normal?

Depressed

Death is a terrible shock, especially the first time you experience it to someone you knew well. But if the effects have lasted for a year, it might be depression. Have your friends noticed a change in you?It is, however, very normal to get much moodier and less consistently happy in your teens. Perhaps it's the hormones, or perhaps it's that life becomes more complicated and there are more worries.
-
Heh **** yea my friends noticed it man..they keep asking me whats goin on and i dotn wanna tell them anything..I cant really sleep that good ( maybe 5 hrs? )
-
My guess is 5 hours is above average for the average teenager.
-
Is it hard for you to get to sleep becase things keep going through your mind? Do you keep waking up? Do you wake up early all the time and can't get back to sleep again?
-
weird enough i sit and think in my bed or i sit completely up against my head board..sometimes i do wake up rom nightmares, but who doesnt
-
Yes, --Caliber--, this is completely normal. I used to have problems sleeping after I heard that I had a brother who died (stillborn).
-
Thanks..haha it sucks but eventually i'll put it outta my mind..i hope

Don't be afraid to try antidepressant medication if it goes on and on. Depression tends to cause itself, so you can get depressed from something sad happening, and then stay depressed because you're depressed. Sometimes you need medication to break that cycle.

i get nightmeras there are odd thought it is a 'blind dream' not vivied but i have a strong sence of direction and i can actually feel the feer in my sleep i rememberit quite well but ill just go on and tell it.i am walking in the woods and im being chased by a savge tribe Engines or Chiefs. I am running but i get killed and dumped under an Oak Tree then the next day my 'ghost' as you may call it looks at my dead psyical body. another type dream is like the other one but insted of being chased by Engines i am being hunted down by a bunch of Young Savages from some Ghetto. dont know who they are becaue it is a blind dream i dont see it. does this have to do with anyting? do any of you have these types of dreams.
-
Are you normally blind, MysteryManAlpha?
-
huh? i think he just meant it's not a vivid dream
-
My nightmares are nothing like that..usually i get murdered,kidnapped, my friend dies infront of me..my worst fears basically..i lose my penis..lmao
-
maybe you'd stop having them if you're not scared of them
-
Really? You think? But they are my fears, i cant just become not afraid of dieing, being kidnapped, people i love dieing..its not that easy
-
if you have a dream about dying or being kidnapped it has a different meaning, it doesn't mean you're going to die or be kidnapped, i can't remember what certain themes in dreams mean, but i'm sure if you do a search on the net you'll find out a lot
