holahayley56 answered Wednesday June 21 2006, 12:26 pm: Ahhhh.!!! I suggest you see a doctor immediatly. In school we just took a class in this, & those are like all of the signs. Tell a parent/guardian immediatly. Because, either if something bad that has happened or it could be the chemicals in your brain. Are uneven, & if its not taken care of immediatly, then you might have it for like ever or something (not sure on that one, but I think if your brain has uneven chemicals, and its not treated with medicine. It like never goes away or something ) Just go see a doctor. Ok, bye! =) [ holahayley56's advice column | Ask holahayley56 A Question ]

helpmebrenda answered Sunday June 18 2006, 12:40 pm: Hi
I have clinical depression, and have had it since I was in the eight grade...I'm now 34.
Symptoms of depression are both emotional, and physical. Alot of people don't understand how depression can hurt you physically, but trust me it does.
The fact that you are asking this question is a good thing....you know you need help.
It's time to involve doctors/psychologists/counsellors. They will be able to help you work through this dark time. You may be put on medication that can really help bring you back to life so to speak.
Depression is a chemical imbalance of the brain, and can treated successfully with the right medication.
Good luck, and know that with help, life will get better.
orphans answered Sunday June 18 2006, 10:58 am: Yes, it's depression, and if you look at one of my recent answers, it shows 5 signs of depression.
Also, if you read my bio, I went through a suicide thing too. I'm all over it now, except for sometimes. I have the exact same problems as you still, except with the eating.
Kill yourself? Why? Think of all the good times you had. I know you said you used to have those suicidal thoughts, but just in case. Yeah, so think of how many people will be upset. That's what I did. I thought of my little sister who would probably never be the same again if I did kill myself.
I hope I helped you, and write again if you need more support, or just someone to talk to. Plus, I need a friend too, unless your a boy, because I don't want a friendship to grow deeper.
emoguitarchick21 answered Sunday June 18 2006, 10:13 am: Hey. That sounds like depression. I think I probably still have it, but get help. It's the best thing you can do. It's too hard to fight on it's own. Not getting help will end you up in a bad spot, and things will and can be hard, but you have to realize that it'll always be okay in the end.

Nallie answered Sunday June 18 2006, 2:28 am: The best advice that I can give you is to see a Dr to rule out a physical illness first. You mentioned physical symptoms "headache, stomachache and dizzyness" these should really be checked. If you don't have a physical illness you should ask the Dr. to refer you to someone who can diagnose and treat you.
jumadel answered Sunday June 18 2006, 1:28 am: Hi there, yes it's quite likely that you are depressed. You will need to talk to someone, preffered Counsellor or another proffesional. It could get worse if you don't. Daniel. [ jumadel's advice column | Ask jumadel A Question ]
