[Sonne]

looks like you called it there Zero... U_U

I cope with depression by basically going insane momentarily and in private. I don't mean 'insane' to mean 'I'm going to destroy everything'. I'm talking more 'The Joker from the Dark Knight' insane... It's difficult to describe. Basically, I allow myself to momentarily "crack" and just laugh masochistically at all the problems facing me. It's creepy, but it kind of works.

As far as improving my sense of self-worth goes, NB helps a lot with that for me

I do the opposite and just take everything and can't react... I think your way is healthier and you can overcome this, no problem ^_^

Don't internalise too much. Deal with how you feel straight away in a calm way or it will get worse. If you feel depressed or upset (we all do from time to time), do something nice for yourself or go out for a walk... this does help.

Whatever happens, don't let anything make you feel this unhappy and you write really well!!! ^_^

This is excellent advice. I also recommend listening to some Bob Marley or Fleet Foxes when you feel down.... It's some chill music that will put your mind and troubles at ease

Well, it's easier when you have years of experience and special abilities to back you up >_<

what problem?
This is something that everyone suffers, even a little

The necessity of being acknowledge is something that everyone strives for, and people try different styles to become known by a community.
What people fear is oblivion, the fear of being forgotten, with no one really caring about you. Some teenagers have expressed that they would do something negative in their lifes just to be acknowledged.

You are only acting like a normal teenager that feels the necessity of attention, that's all. The thing that you have to work on is how you gain the attention, which can bring negative or positive experiences depending on how you act.

In this case you are suffering from low auto-esteem
All teenagers (which I have talk too, I have been studying psychology) always strive for acknowledgement.
Some just don't have a problem doing so because they are talented talking to other people, and trying to solve the problems of others before their own, but this way is easier for them to solve their own.
Some just prefer to stay quiet and solve them in their own, afraid that they will be mocked or judged. If they are unable to do it in their own, they go somewhere were their identity is disclosed, like a forum.

I suggest that you get to know yourself better, try to meditate or look for your personality trait, which will help you understand who you are.

After this, you should talk to a family member or a friend you deeply trust, this would play a major factor in your life.

Lol you study psychology and you diagnose the issue yet you fail to act properly? You say he wants acknowledgement yet you dismiss the issue of his cry for help as a normal act of a teenager? Effectively not acknowledging that he wants to be seen and/or noticed (yet you make him unnoticed by saying he's like everyone else, and by trying to make it medical and posting links to help himself when he's asking for others to help). Seriously?

ermmm i dont really get your problem there : /
thats typically the way all teenagers are so whats the problem xD
well im a teenager but i got to be honest that iv never had that sort of problems cuz im kinda arrogant and im not really ambitious so i don't try to look mighty or superior cuz iv already got good friends and i didn't have to do anything to have them on my side so thats what makes friends special
just be you and stop being ambitious when u got everything you need to live happy

for god sake why the hell do i try to help teenagers when they haven't got any fcking problem -_-
the most stupid thing that happens to a person when alive is be a fcking teenager!
i dont hate myself i hate the others because they can't think like i do and believe me if u knew me really well u would know what im talking about -_-

-_- You've never had this problem yet your an expert on it? You hate others because they can't think like you? :| Well you must hate most people because no one could think like you because you can't think at all.

As the title says. Does anybody else have this problem? Does it affect your day? if so, how? Do you do anything to prevent it from getting too bad? In that case, what do you do?

I'm 16, and yeah, i don't think too much about myself.
I'd really hate to write a lot of personal stuff here, because i have this feeling that there'll be non-serious talk in this thread soon.
But generally it affects my day pretty much, i really have have this need for people to acknowledge my work and what i do. I'm easily depressed, not terribly depressed or anything, i've never cut myself or anything of the sort. But i can really become quite gloomy when it gets bad, and sometimes i take it out on the people i'm near at that moment. I say terrible things and overreacts, and especially music can provide me with a 'mood' to support my gloominess. I try to act high and mighty sometimes, and i almost get nausea over myself when i think about the stuff i've said and done. NB, for example, is one of the places i go to get a little boost in my confidence, it's a nice feeling to help people here, or beat someone in a fight. But it's become far too serious for me lately, i snap at the people i know from here because of insignificant things, and it's cost me some of the people i usually talked to a lot. What's your thoughts on people with this problem? Have you ever had this problem? etc.
Discuss freely.

(Please excuse my terrible grammar and spelling)

Yeah bro I hear you, sucks like I'm sure we both know. I don't know your full story, but I would like to know. If you want to bro we can talk about it on msn, I'll help you (I don't expect you to post it on NB).

I hate to quote the whole thing, but whatever xd

We all feel this way some times in our lives. It's just something everyone feels. I had this problem with one of my stories, when it wasn't getting as much attention as my other work, despite being my best work. I realized though, who cares? I love writing what I write, so I'll continue it, and plus, the public, you guys, like my other work. It's a win-win.

Just don't worry too much, and relax. I'm a teen too. It's just normal. Hooray for normalness.

Well, it is true, at that age (as myself) want to be notice and do anything to do so,which sometimes can turn into negative behaviors such things as consuming alcohol, smoking, ***, etc.
He as others, have a different way to gain acknowledgement, I do not want him to feel unnoticed, but to understand that is a normal feeling that many teenagers feel.
The links aren't for medical purposes really, it is more to get to know yourself. It is hard trying to help via a computer, I can't be besides him to pat his shoulder and help him.
To be able to indentify the cause of the problem, you have to get into the root of the situation. If he understands why he acts how he acts it would be easier for him and the people around him to find a solution. You cannot do diagnosis blindly and say I feel you, when you currently can't because you aren't living his life.
I just want to help, I had this feeling of being unoticed for a long time. The way you receive information varies depending in the personality trait. For example, you thought my suggestions were merely stupid, but for many others, its helpful.

I know exactly what you mean, i'm actually a small-time fanfic-writer myself, and honestly, i get kinda sad when people read some badly written comedy crap instead of my mediocre fanfics xd
Problem is that by raging over such a thing, i'm actually just being super selfish. Cause i'm thinking shit about other people's work, while putting my own into the skies. Jealousy is my biggest problem O_O
