Today was stressful at school. I got in trouble for forgetting to submit my homework and I had a math quiz which I probably failed. It wasn’t until Social Studies that I began to feel weird. We were talking about being our best self, leading our best life, and other stuff. I then started to realize that there’s nothing fun in life anymore. It just seems to drag on since we can’t do anything. I started to feel sad, but at the same time not sad? I just felt like my emotions were just dragged away. I just don’t have motivation to do anything, and feel like nothing could make me happy. But, it’s not like I’m sad. It’s like I have no emotion at all and I’m just a corpse. Is this like….depresion or something?
Is this depression?

Hi, I’ve been depressed for years but this corona outbreak has made it worse. I struggle to get out...

It seems so. Things will get better according to the law of averages. Sometimes you just have to put your nose down and push through. Take some time to organize your school supplies, your room, and then your thoughts. You can do better if you try. I believe in you! Theres a lot of life and love ahead of you.
I feel the same way a lot now. For me personally, it feels like there isn’t really a point to anything. And also like I’m always bored. I always want to do something but then at the same time I don’t want to do anything at all. Like even watching tv is hard for me. I try to just force myself to become motivated which seems like one of the hardest things ever but once in a while, it works.
Hello! Please correct me if I’m wrong, but you using terms like math and social studies is leading me to think you’re possibly in middle school or early high school? Those self-realization prompts classes had always threw me off, I relate to that. Deep class conversations lead me to feeling some sort of emptiness, but I can’t explain it. Your symptoms of conflicting emotions definitely could be a sign of depression. I’m sad for no reason sometimes. I’m told that I’m very privileged and fortunate, I’m not physically ill, and all of that, so I should be happy. However, life is hard for everyone in their own ways, regardless of age, gender, wealth, race, etc. Your decrease in schoolwork completion and motivation is a sign of depression as well, but failing one math test is okay and you’ll learn from that failure. I suggest seeking some support from people you’re close to in your life who are trustworthy. If you don’t have that kind of support, I also suggest reaching out to a teacher or school counselor. I wish I didn’t ignore my depressive symptoms before the extremes happened, so I hope this can help even just a little bit. Stay strong, I believe in you!
