Depression these days... I swear kids use this as a -blam!-ing defense mechanism for why they are weird, left out, socially awkward, extremely introverted, feel like they had their heart broken, and so forth. Yes, I said that (I'm sorry for those few who truly do have depression, because you do need the help). I just mean that there are soooooo many cases of depression in kids these days like is it just easier to pass the kid off as being depressed instead of being seeing that the kid is bored and kinda left out or whatever...like the parents would rather diagnose their kid as being depressed than as just being like -blam!- I raised an awkward emo kid that is really weird...but no they go far enough to say all these kids are quote on quote depressed and have a mental disorder instead of dealing with the real issues. I swear its just that these kids aren't built for this shit these days. These days, if a kid somewhat feels hurt, they curl up in a -blam!-ing ball and whine about it.
