I have had feelings of worthlessness/laziness for a few years now as well as a very low self-esteem. I just have no confidence and I don't like myself enough to try and do anything. I never feel like doing anything like homework, hanging out with friends or talking to my family even though I want to do these things. Instead I just sit in my room alone or sleep. I thought I might be depressed but what if I am just a lazy person? What if that's just me? I know these are signs of depression but I don't want to be labeled depressed. I have never talked to a doctor because I'm embarrassed. I'm embarrassed that I'm so boring and worthless for no reason. I have a good family life and I'm not sick, what more could I ask for? I feel so stupid because I can't seem to change my attitude on my own. Should I go see a doctor even though I'll feel embarrassed? I don't want my family to see me go to a psychiatrist either because it might make them sad/worried and I don't want that.
