Ok, so I've tried looking this up on my laptop and I couldn't find anything about it, idk if this would be classified as a type of depression or not but the past few days I've noticed I will just get into this mood and I get sad but I will have about 2-3 crying spurts that last about 10 minutes each, nothing triggers it, the mood and the crying fits all come at random. I have told my mom but she don't think it's as serious as I'm taking it. So I'm asking, is this a type of depression? Or just a girl thing?
It very well could be a mild case if hyperactive depression. Do you ever find a reason to be sad while crying or is it just "I'm crying and I know I'm crying but I don't know why"?
You might be starting your period soon. Just a possibility. But if you aren't due then maybe you should go to your doctor? It could also be stress related, I was like that when I was really stressed. Does school/work stress you out a lot?
Don't think about it too much or you'll worry yourself even more and you'll have these crying outbursts more often. Best off going to your doctor and explain what's happening.
I'm not due for my thing for about 2 more weeks, I'm finishing school work at home. And its a "I'm crying and I don't know why" and It's not just a few tears, its crying like someone in my family died. It stops itself and then I go back to myself again
Sounding like something I went through. Is it a lot of school work? Do you have much of a social life? Is your home life okay? Has something happened in the last few weeks that has made you sad or worried you? Are you missing someone?
Not a lot of work, its fairly easy. Not missing anyone, home life is fine, nothing I know of to cause me to be worried or anything of that nature, and my social life seems pretty good.
Like I said, don't worry about it so much or it'll only happen more often and make things harder. You'll get through it
Btw don't bother with those online doctor websites where you can possibly workout what you have, the outcome usually is nowhere near what you find out online. Last time I did that I apparently could have had cancer .-. And they'll only just worry you more. I recommend exercise if you don't do much or any already. When you exercise your body releases the happy hormone serotonin and you feel better afterwards. I started taking up regular exercise afterwards and it did help me feel better. A 20-30mins walk a day will do, or you could sign up at a local gym and do a couple of hours there a week to start with, and the best thing is there's always someone to help out at the gym.
I do workout, I take yoga about 2 times a week and one class on the weekends. I'm not really a stressful kind of person. I just idk what's going on, I get in this mood, like I can be laughing and completely fine then a second later im in this mood, in my room, being quiet, not doing anything, and I just cry
I wish I could help you but I'm lost now. Mine was all stress related. But best go to your doctor and let him/her know what's going on. All the best.
Definitely worth talking to a doctor about. It could be that you're starting your cycle early. But I would see a doctor. On the Internet, the answer to any medical problem is always cancer. \:
I've been talking to my mom more serious about it and she does think it could be a type of depression
Sounds like you might have manic depression. Usually, people with MDD don't have mood swings or behavior issues, which is better classified as bi-polar disorder. They're happy, feeling pretty good. Then, all of the sudden, they're upset and crying. The crying normally doesn't last more than five minutes, but can happen several times throughout the day. If the disorder worsens, waking up just for the simple reason of crying. However, we're not physchiatric doctors, so seeing a mental health professional would be my suggestion. Also, if you take that route, be completely open and straightforward. Otherwise, you'll end up being diagnosed with something completely irr
I've had similar things happen, but combined with panic attacks which worsened the situation. It's important that you see a health care professional to help you sort out what's going on, because if you constantly worry about it, it'll make things worse. My issues have almost always been hormone related; hormonal imbalances can affect your mood as well. So as other posters have wisely advised you, go see a doctor as soon as you can. Talk to your mom and explain that while it may not seem like a big deal, it is a big deal to you. Sometimes it's hard for others looking in to understand these emotions, but I know first hand what crying spells are like so I can relate and understand your concerns. I'm sure it's nothing you can't get past, but it is important to get the help you need. I wish you the best, I hope everything gets better really soon !
