Depressed?

Question

Lately I've felt hopeless. My stomach has hurt, I don't have much of an appetite.. and when I eat something It sometimes makes me feel sick. At first I thought I was sad because of feeling sick for the past two weeks, but now i'm thinking it's the other way around. I also feel tired. I feel like I don't care about anything else going on in the world. I just want to feel like my old self again. I'm only 14!

I'm not pregnant.

Answer 1

At 14, your body is going through a lot of hormonal changes and those can make you depressed sometimes. Has something happened to make you depressed? Your description sounds like mild depression, if it were serious, you'd be worse off.

I suggest you journal, write about what you are feeling inside and just keep writing until you figure out what may be bothering you. If you come up with just minor things, then it is most likely you are just experiencing the hormonal mood swings.

Should you feel worse and not improve is a few days, best to tell your parents and maybe have a doctor examine you.

My advice would to talk to your doctor about your symptoms and have him/her refer you to a psychologist and/or psychiatrist if he/she feels that this is a mild case of depression.
