depression


Question Posted Friday March 10 2006, 11:26 pm

Lately, I have been concerned that I may be depressed. I've looked into it and I seem to have all the symptoms. I feel embarrassed talking to my parents about my concern. I feel weak and dumb. Can anyone suggest anyone that I can talk to about being depressed besides my parents, teachers or guidance councellor? Thanks.

Well just find a close friend that you can trust.Talk to him/her, but make sure they can understand you and can talk back to make you feel better so its not like your the only one in this and no one gets you.

tlakj to your friends. holding your "depressive" feelings in may make yourself feel worse. when you have someone to talk to you will always feel better. i hope that you get better soon!

A guidance counsler would be a good idea,but she will ooner or later tell you to ask a doctor abot it or tell your parents,a few friends of mine had depression and they told their parents,no matter what your parents still care and will help you out with it,I really hope everythig works out for you,

Usually when you are feeling depressed, you don't really want to open to anyone around you that much.

I've been in the situation, and I've learned that everytime I get depressed and I talk to someone, so much weight feels like it's came off of my shoulders. It's a good feeling to know that somebody else knows you've been really depressed. And if theres anyone you should tell, it's definetly your parents, or at least one of them, whichever you are closest to.

What you have to know is that it's OK to feel weak, and depressed. It's OK to cry on someone's shoulder. And it's definetly OK to ask for help when you feel like you are drowning in your tears of depression.

But if it takes telling somebody else first for you to feel comfortable with telling your parents, then I'd probably confide in a best friend, or a school counselor.

If you need anymore advice concerning depression, or asking for help, I'm definetly here to help, and I know the pain
