Is this hormones and mood swings or a genuine problem?
It’s entirely normal. I am always helping my friends sort out their depression and mood swings, going suicidal etc. and you are correct. Most people find themselves finding reasons to be unhappy even if they have much more to be happy about. I have an awfully unrewarding life for the amount of effort i put in to help people but at the end of the day, I’m as happy as can be because I know I’ve done my best to help my friends and they will be happy for a small while. While doing this I get no ‘thank you’s or appreciation but it’s worth it to me. The difference is that other people have a brilliant life compared to mine but they tell themselves so often that their life is bad and that nothing seems to go right for them that they believe it and therefore get very depressed. When you’re a teenager, everything bad seems 1000x worse because you don’t know how to handle such things yet.
