Fake Depression is when a teenager (mostly girls between the ages of 12-15) pretends to be diagnosed with the very serious mental illness called depression in hopes getting attention. These girl will usually post pictures of themselves or other images with captions claiming that they want to end their lives or wanting to ‘end it all’ when really they just want others to take pity on them and sulk about how terrible their amazing life is. Spotting a fake depressed person is easy so please if you suspect someone you know might be this annoying blob of a person please these symptoms below
. Listening to ‘emo music’ and Billie Eilish

. Constantly taking about how bad their life is (usually people with depression don’t tell anyone about it)
. Posting on instagram with sad captions
. Complain that they have no friends (when really they have more than you)
. When talking about cliques or what famous character in a movie they are like they will usually pick the sad/emo/weird one

These people are some of the most disgusting people on the planet

A fake depressed is that one kid in every school who pretends to be depressed around others for attention but is actually a pretty happy yet annoying person, trying out things for popularity or attention

Someone who is sad and seeks attention when alone and instantly becomes happy when they are with someone.

People who show signs of fake depression would normally post black and white stories with phrases such as "kill me", "I hate everyone" and "join my live at 3:33" these are the typical signs of a bitch

Fake depression is when somebody is so desperate for attention they pretend to have a mental illness. Commonly found in pre-teen girls that are hitting their ''emo'' phase. The people who fake depression commonly flaunt it and always mention it. This type of human being is disgusting and immoral. People with fake depression claim they have no ''real'' friends and they constantly whine and bitch even though they have over 20 friends.

Somebody who posts on their story about how bad their depression is when really all they want is attention. People who post Bart Simpson edits with some "in your feels" music. The only thing wrong with these people is they are attention whores and are only faking mental health conditions so they can feel like people care about them.

Fake depression is when somebody falsely exhibits symptoms of depression for the sake of getting attention/pity/compliments. Of course, it is also being theorized that actual depression is an unconscious evolutionarily-ingrained attempt to bargain with/manipulate the environment. For some people who 'have' fake depression, it is because they just need attention and caring from those around them. This in and of itself does not mean there is not a problem. In that case, even if they do not need treatment for depression, they still need either support/caring or need to solve the problem of being needy, as fitting the situation.

Some who suffer from depression fear that they are faking it and only being trouble, and thus shouldn't be helped.

In todays 'society', there are self-proclaimed emo people who may fake depression for the sake of it being <i>cool</i>. Those who mimic illness because they think it will make them seem fashionable recieve only contempt and disgust from many people who are trying to recover from depression due to it being viewed as a mockery and making depression much less accepted as a real danger by many people.

In conclusion, although fake depression may not be genuine, it still can signify other problems that need to be identified.
I only have fake depression, all I do is manipulate others, who STILL wont admit that they need to leave me behind for their own good.
