Thanks in advance
I was incredibly depressed during high school. Of course there was the standard teen angst, but, life during this period was just shitty. I remember waking up each day hoping I would have a good day, and with those feelings came crippling social anxieties.
I was a weird motherfucker in high school, and after high school, this continued. My first year of college was shitty. I was so scared of socializing and talking to people in general social situations (such as going to the stores) that I became even more depressed. However, I started learning confidence boosting techniques, started pushing myself, no matter how awkward, into situations I never experienced, and started socializing. With that being said, I also started eating a protein heavy diet and weight lifting. The large gains I made within a year made me way more confident.
In addition, I started to take on this idea that if it won't kill me, I shouldn't worry about it.
Looking back on it, it's interesting to see people now from high school and college, most don't even recognize me. I transformed myself. but, there was a lot of merit to being depressed for so long. Really allowed me to reflect on life in a peculiar way, and really helped me realize a lot about myself, and now if for whatever reason I get into little depression slumps, I realize that things will get better I just have to work towards it.
