i'm 19 and i'm about to go to college. there is a problem though i am currently always sad and down all the time, it seems that i can never be happy.. i always fake my happiness. i can't sleep and my eating habits are weird sometimes i'll eat sometimes i won't. i have a hard time sleeping too! i cna only sleep during the day but i have trouble sleeping during the night. i don't like any around my friends as much and i don't know why. i told my mom i wanted to talk to someone. i cut myself also.. but i haven't done it in about 3 or 4 weeks. i'm scared to tell my mom. what should i do?

Well your nineteen,
which gives you the option to seek
help yourself, or ask your mom.
Which ever you find easier you should do.
I mean the symptons you list are signs of depression, and if not taken care of soon,
can worsen. You most likely have low seretonin,
which can be fixed by meds if you seek help.
Try talking to a counsular about this.
Thats something I highly suggest.
