Is this depression? Should I get it checked out?

It is normal for teenagers to question life like this and not like their parents, families etc... You are in the stage of separating and becoming independent of your family. You are trying to figure out who you are. It can be a scary and tumultuous time. What you need to do is to stop focusing on all of these celebrities who seem to have a better life than you. That's not always the case you know. You have to focus on you and try to find out what kind of person you are. What do you like to do besides watching TV? Find something you like and get off the couch and out there to do it. Even if you volunteer somewhere and help others that will make you feel so much better. Good Luck!
