I am so depressed why?
Over all my life is pretty good. Yet i will find myself crying over the littlest things like if i get 1 C or if i forget homework. Also i will like yell at my mom i don't mean to it just slips out and she will yell back and get all offended and slam her door and that also leads to crying. Oh and this is not a regular thing this week my mom got a flat screen from her boss and she wanted me to get it out of the back of the car so i tried and it was like stuck so like an idiot i kicked the box and then she just blew up on me saying "you selfish inconsiderate little bitch i will get it" oh and did i forget to mention my friend was there yeah not good. Well that's about it oh and one more thing i will not i repeat i will NOT go into council-ling so if there are any other suggestions oh and no pills for it i hate meds ick .Thanks;)

To a certain extent I am going to agree with Pook. Since you didn't give your age we have to assume that you are at an age that you are entering puberty and the hormonal changes have hit you with a vengeance. We parents call this "THE TEENAGE YEARS", a phase, something you will grow out of. This is true. Your body will use the hormones to make the changes needed to change from a child to an adolescent young women and finally an adult women.
This is all normal and while I understand your not wanting meds'. Understand there are medications that will make this time easier for you. Some children, yes boys and girls, have more trouble with puberty than others. Teenage years put a lot of stress on our children today both in and out of school. This external stress plus the stresses of puberty can be hard to handle causing what you are experiencing.
My question to you is this: If a simple little pill once a day can make life easier for you, allow you to think more clearly and concentrate better both in and out of school; what is the problem? The pill does not put weight on you. It will not cause you to walk around in a fog or like some type of zombie. For the most part in a non medical explanation, it will help your body deal with the hormones that are causing you all these problems and allow you to be happier. To me it is a win/win situation.
Think about it. Go see your doctor and talk to the doctor about it. Ask mom to step out of the exam room so you can talk to the doctor privately and let the doctor explain the different medications that could be offered. Then with the doctor and possibly mom you can decide if you want medication and which one. But make an informed decision don't just reject the idea out of hand.

Sounds like hormones rather than depression. This would explain your mood swings and also your crying for no real reason. A lot of people go through it when they are teenagers, so try not to worry about it. Remember it's ok to make mistakes and be a klutz, don't get angry with yourself over these minor things. You could tell your mom that you sometimes struggling with your emotions & acting out so she at least knows you are aware of it and it is something you are working on, so she won't react like that in future. It's a phase and it will pass so hang in there!
Depression would be when you start to sleep excessively, lose lots of weight, are apathetic, don't want to see your friends, can't make decisions, contemplate suicide etc. I don't think this is what you are going through but if you are then I strongly advise you to talk to someone about it, either your mom or your school counsellor/nurse.
