Hey
Don't know where to put this, so I'm going to put it here.
Judging by the title, you probably already know what this is about. I'll be honest, when I am online, the way I act is generally happy and light-hearted. While I am in the most part actually happy and light-hearted, there are a few times where I've been pretty upset and basically covering it up with a "character"
I'm not always just happy and light-hearted, and sometimes I do actually take things seriously, even though it may not seem like it. I cover a lot of things up with laughter and jokes, mainly because I don't want others to catch my sadness.
Now before you say it, no I am not suicidal. I really have nothing to gain through suicide. There was an extremely dark period when I was younger where I was really depressed and sad, but even then I wasn't suicidal.
Now you're probably wondering why I am depressed in the first place, because I have nothing to be depressed about. I have an amazing life; I come from a loving family, I have no problem making friends, and I was accepted into my dream university. So why am I depressed...
I have no idea, that's what. If I was just depressed, and I knew why, I wouldn't just put it out here. There have just been really, really, stupid small things that just sometimes make me super depressed. For example, I was making tea one day and I spilled a little, and I just felt really depressed. Like incredibly trivial things are just making me feel like crap. I had a dream about dropping a plate on the ground, and when I woke up, I started crying. I don't know what the hell is going on with my brain. Sometimes I just feel my life will be trivial to the overall existence of the universe even if I grow up to lead a happy life. To be fair, I'm not always sad. In fact, I'd say 90% of the time I am happy (or at least neutral). I just have no idea why I'm just getting random outbreaks of sadness for such trivial reasons...
I just want to know if any of you guys are experiencing these weird things, or if I should go see a psychiatrist.
