I’ve been feeling really depressed, off and on and crying and all that good stuff, but it’s all really little things and I don’t know why I’m a high school freshman that is beating myself up so badly for having a 78 in my AP class, it seems like it shouldn’t bug me so much, and I don’t know really what my problem is, I guess I’m just overstressed and confused and whatnot, but please, I’d appreciate some suggestions on maybe stress management, or maybe someone helping me figure out what, if anything is wrong with me.

I feel kind of numb. I act very happy: slow to anger, its easier to work (i used to just veg out and procrastinate) enjoy simple things but I don’t know if I feel happy happy. Just sort of contented and whatever. I have felt happy happy before (when I was first dating my fiance but that was also mixed with a lot of fear) and now I wish that that happiness was the norm but I wonder if that is out of the norm to be THAT happy all the time.
