Depression

I feel down and I don't know why.

I should be happy.

I have everything I want.

I have a boyfriend who loves me.

I have the most awesome friends.

I have great classes.

I have a wonderful family who cares about me.

Most of the time I'm happy.

But there are some days that I feel really depressed.

Is there something wrong with me?

Am I not as happy as I should be.

Am I not as happy as I think I am?

What's wrong with me?

Why am I feeling depressed today?

Is it a medical problem?

Is it all in my head?

Am I having normal emotions?

Am I just a lunatic?

Why am I depressed?

What's wrong with me?

Do I need to seek help?

What's wrong with me?

I was still missing an old beau.  I never really let him go.
