At school I have to put up an act like I'm all happy and stuff but I really am depressed because my mother is a drinker and she really angry when she drinks. But also I have trouble talking to ppl because I'm antisocial. Any helps please?

Well Im sorry to hear about your mother but I am the same. I like to pretend Im happy and keep my distance. If someone talks to me I would at least try to talk to them. Maybe they could know the feeling and be there for you to support you. And you always have the people here.

A similar thing happened to me earlier my freshman year. I had to be an actress because a bunch of kids turned against me and bullied me, right when I was depressed. I pretended to be a happy person around my family, but eventually I hit a wall and wound up in the hospital. To avoid hitting a wall like I did, try to look around. There is surely someone who cares for you at school, and you may not even notice it. If someone comes over to say "hi" to you, say "hi" back. That's how I realized a bunch of people truly cared about me, despite all the scars I had from bullying.

You can try Internet anonymity. I'm antisocial too, but when I talk over the Internet, It's much easier for me.

Hey, a good tip is to join a club there are plenty of people nad they will talk to you for for being in the club, you just have to start talking and people will talk back and become your friends. That's basically how I made friends after i stoped being sevearly depressed.

I was abused as a kid and put on a facade and lied to everyone with a smile about my bruises and cuts. My dad isn't a drinker, but just took out his anger on my sister and I. I was always depressed and I didn't have the energy to put on a front anymore. The only things that helped me out of my depression was not those I talked to, but those I skated with. I overcame the bad memories with good ones. Also if you don't know why you are depressed I would suggest to just write what is on your mind. My main advice is to just have a good time with friends to out rule the negative ones at home. The last thing that helped me was somebody saying I wasn't a bad person. So if it helps, you are not a bad person. Oh, and like you I was, and still am quite anti-social, but a lot more happy.
