i think ill start this journal off with oe of the most controversial topics concerning kids my age today and also one of the ones that is most skipped over in the media today its called Depression. First lets look at it. Depression for teens today can encompass many things from just a general bad attitude to full blown suicidal tendencies. lets be clear here all of this from someone who whines about their problems on a daily basis to someone on the verge of their 5th suicide attempt could all be considered to have depression. so what is depression. lets look, take teenagers, they are restricted and bombarded by the negative aspects of society today and generally deal with it through a motley collection of different ways. now take depressed teens, they are restricted and bombarded by the negative aspects of society today, however they deal with it in a specific way, they get hurt by it, this is pain, life is for the most part pain, so therefore to get hurt by society's negativity is to live. ok so you have different degrees of said depression. on the lowest end of this depression is the people who complain about the way things are, no doubt they are depressed but they dont exactly know what to do with it. therefore because they feel pain they are alive but they are also confused about what to do about this pain, so if life is pain and they are confused by it then they are confused with life. moving on. people who have deperssion sometimes get angry and lash out at others, the feel the pain that society inflicts on them and react by turning that pain against someone else, yes they are depressed they just cant keep that to themsleves and instead turn it into anger, this anger causes them to hurt others both intentionally and otherwise, so to be angry about pain is to have anger about life and to hurt others is the outlet for said anger about life. now then depressed people who hurt themselves. they are hurt by the things society inflicts on them, therefore they are alive, however this doesnt bring about anger it brings about sorrow, this sorrow is painfull therefore it is life, so they form an outlet, instead of hurting others they hurt themselves, so by hurting themselves they feel pain, by feeling pain they are living, and by living they realize that life is pain. so final analysis.......pfffft none whatsoever.
well if you just read all the red up there i commend you for sticking through that rant and reading it all the way through, this is not my opinion on anything, nor is it posted in here to demean or hurt anyones feelins, these are just the random thoughts that entered my head on whatever date i happened to be thinking them. let me know what you think about them, or just read it and enjoy, whatever you feel like. laters for now im off like a prom dress.
