Question: How can I treat depression on my own without medicine or therapy (neither are available to me)?
I asked my mom about going to see my doctor to get antidepressants and she just mocked me. I asked about going to therapy and she said no and that it was selfish of me to ask. I talked to my dad but he's super stressed out with work and can't help me.
What can I do to feel better? I just make myself feel numb so I don't cry all day.

25mg/day 5-HTP, 66mg/day St. John's Wort taken in the morning with water or milk (you'll need to break open the capsules)
You can buy these in a health food store or online (usually cheaper).
I moved continents too in 2007, so I know what it's like to loose all your friends. You are a really strong person! I think you would like to maybe take a look at the blog I ust started today http://lifeoutloudinsilence.blogspot.com…
Its about me dealing with depression, an eating disorder and panic attacks. I am proud to say I overcame it after a lot of hard work. I was blessed to have a stranger help me through it all, and I want to offer the same to you. I am a 17 year old girl too. Please message me if you just want to talk or ANYTHING. I know what its like to be alone when you feel like that, and I dont wish it on anyone!! I wont judge, I promise, I truthfully just want to help. Don't forget to smile today and know that it will get better soon and you are beautiful! <3
Concentrate on your studies, within your home. Read some good books, improve your knowledge. Do some online courses so as to get prepared to face the world with zeal, after 3 years, when your baby sister will start going school. Things are bad now but I am sure it will improve later.
Get in touch with your friends through online media. Facebook, twitter etc.
Start a blog about what interests you.
All the best things will surely return to your life. I am sure. Just a matter of time. :)
Cheers!!!
