I read some parts from the Depression Sticky, and well....I have 6 of the symptoms of depression, and 6 of the symptoms or "Mania" But umm, I've never really heard of that before confused

Anyways, I know that I'm dpressed, becasue I've been depressed for a while and I've looked up information on depression before.

I just want help. I don't want to be depressed anymore. I'm tired of it. I want to be happy. And I don't know how I can do that.

I can't talk to anyone. Not my parents, or my friends, or teahcers or anything. I just...can't.

So..any advice?

Try to think about what does make you happy. Do you have a bf that you can talk to. Try talking to a freind that you trust above all the others. I know when I feel blue. I go straight to my baby sisters and after 2 minutes. Im good as new. blaugh Try talking to a councilar at school. Do things that are fun for you. Watch funny movies. I do that and trust me it really really helps. whee Not being able to talk to freinds isn't good. I know the feelling. Try doing things to keep your mind off of it. Figure out whats making you depressed and try to put a stop to it.

If you try to solve your depression by yourself, and that doesn't work, then you need to seek outside help. You can try talking to a close friend/trusted adult, or a school counsellor even. If you don't like those options, you can ask your parents to take you to a counsellor/therapist/psychologist. You don't have to tell them why, but you can ask to go see someone.

I understand the entire "cant talk to anyone about it" thing... I'm still building the nerve to talk to someone about my issues...

The best thing to do is talk to someone. I've been trying for months to solve my problems myself but to no avail... things only seem to get worse. I would just like to know... do you know why you can't seem to talk to anyone? (I personally have anxiety and confidence issues. I'm not good at confrontation)

Thanks for all the good advice 3nodding

I told my mom that I wanted to see a therapist

So hopefully, I'm going to see a threapist. sweatdrop

@smc - I don't trust anyone, becuase they usually betray me and tell people my secrets. So I just have a really hard time trusting people. And I don't really like telling people my problems becuase most of them don't care and just pretend that they care. And others just shut me out. I also feel like I can't tell some people because they'd think that I was stupid for going to them...
