Go tell a church person near your home as you have told us ~~
If your symptoms include:
Loss of appetite
unexplainable physical pain
profound sadness (sometimes hidden as anger...which typically happens in males)
hopelessness
unable to find meaning in life
suicidal thought
chronically being caught between not wanting to live nor die
crying for no reason that you can discern
excessive guilt for things that don't make sense to be guilty over
excessive sleep
chronic exhaustion without physical or mental exertion
inability to concentrate (not in the ADD sense of ..oooooh squirrel, but more of "what's the point?"
If you experience many of these symptoms, you need to talk to your folks and ask about counseling. The first step is always a psychologist, and if they feel that medication is best for you, then they'll refer you to a psychiatrist. If you are a teen you need to be very vigilant about anything that could be a side effect. and the first thing they put you on may not work out best for you. If things take a turn for the worse...you will need to call your doctor immediately. These reactions while not prevalent in teen medicinal treatment, they do happen.
Experience
First of all you have to make sure you have depression.
You can also have physical pain.
Rapid weight gain or weight loss.
Too little sleep or too much sleep.
You're scared that your parents might over react right?
Well, if they find out on their own it might be a lot worse, they may think you are trying to cover something up.
well you need to see a dr to be diagnosed with depression
if you think you are likely to commit suicide then get some emergency help now and u must tell someone
write your parents a note if u cant face telling them
it will destroy them if you kill your self
whatever u are going thru is temporary
it can all be sorted and u will soon feel better with the right help
best wishes
tell them the symptoms and see if they catch your hint . like how you feel , or if you're depressed . ask them is there anything wrong .
they would be concern and then they will found out .
however so i feel if you really feel you have depression , you should seek help or tell your parent now
