Depression
My therapist says that i have depression that has led to anxiety, and then to Agoraphobia. Is there a chance that these could also lead to or be linked to expressing anger at everyone, even at people i dont want to, like loved ones, or figures of authority or even crushes, even if i take it back and make a joke afterwards, lately i just come off as an angry, anti-social girl [15] to everyone, and i really dont want to. any insights?? also, does anyone know what other involutary things are a cause of depression? thnx for reading.

my personal belive is, that depression is just a thing in your head. now i know just with that sentence you're going get mad. well dont. i belive that theres something in your life, or something you went through in your life that makes you depressed. the reason why you get angry is because you dont know how to deal with it. now i might be wrong about all that, BUT, i pretty sure that's whats up. and do you know how to stop coming off as an angry anti-social 15 year old girl? stop gettin angry. its not hard, figure out whats pissing you off and dont do/go around whats pissing you off. not hard. i belive that your also missing somethin in your life. if you do know the lord, good for you. ask him in prayer to help you out. if you dont know the lord, girl i pray you find him. i've seen alot of depressed people,(dudes and girls) kill thierself not knowing the lord. and its sad, because thats one mistake you cant fix. one time shot at it. but i pray that God helps you find your way. a "therapist" will not help you. nope sorry. only God can help you. hope this helps, need anything, just yell.
-God bless

EDIT
I'm not sure about medicine because I haven't been able to get access to one. But my best friend has major depression, and so does her mother's side of family...so she has a history of depression in her family. She's had to switch her anti-depressants three times and I think the ones she's taking is working for her really well.
As for who I can go to stuff like this to. It really depends. I'm not at all close to my family so I never go to them about serious things. I took a chance with depression and my mom just put it off. Like wanting to commit suicide in 5th before I even knew the words depression and suicide is an everyday happening. I usually go to my best friends with this. I just talk to her daily and I've realized that talking helps a bit. And then I have this really great friend I met online about 3 years ago, whom I still talk to, and I tell him everything since I know there is no risk of it spilling out at my school.
I think that if you need someone to talk to and if you feel uncomfortable talking to your friends, you might be able to flag down someone in a chat room and just talk to them about everything. I was lucky to find that person online & him not be a perverted fat ass. You can certainly talk to me if you want to, but seeing that I'm never on AIM/MSN/YIM, you'd have to talk to me through e-mail. I'm very decent about checking my e-mails everyday so it's efficient enough, I guess. But you can always talk to me if you want to =)
And it kind of puts columnists in an iffy situation if a questioner asks another question in the comment box, to which we have no way to reply to other than to edit our anwers with the answer to the new question, hoping the questioner will see it. So it would be great if you could ask questions separately to our inboxes. Sorry if I sounded mean there, but I really wasn't. Anyways, my e-mail should be on my column if you want to contact me.
*****************************
I'm living with depression and it sucks because my mom refuses to believe it.
Depression can be linked to other things such as anxiety, bipolar disorder, eating disorder, self-injury, etc, etc. It really varies from people to people.
I tend to withdraw from everyone from time to time and I have bad mood swings at times and I kind of snap at people. And then I don't want to talk to them for a long time. So I'm like a hermit to people that aren't close friends of mine. I can't really help you out on how to control your anger thing, because I need work on it, too.
Involuntary cause of depression: chemical imbalance in your brain.
I'm not sure what you mean by involuntary but depression can be caused by a traumatic event such as rape, death of a family member, moving, etc.

Could be, depression is linked with many different psychological problems, like bipolar disorder and anger management issues. Your best bet is to talk to your therapist. Also, if they have diagnosed you with clinical depression, you need medication and should see a trained psychiatrist so they can write you a prescription(some therapists can't).
