I'm 15 years old and I'm completely miserable. I've suspected that I've had depression for a few years now, and I think I finally went over the edge. I haven't gone to school in 5 days and I've been writing suicide notes lately. I have every symptom for depression such as extreme guilt, anxiety (also extreme, resulting in dizziness, difficulty breathing, and difficulty concentrating), insomnia, irritability (I'm beginning to get angry over everything), a constantly depressed mood, no interest in activities I once enjoyed (all I ever want to do is sit on my computer), and I'm very, very pessimistic.
Depression does run in my family, and my Mom (who is Bi-polar) shows the same symptoms that I do. I want to tell my parents that I want therapy or to be prescribed pain killers, but how do I?
