Depression Screening: Since untreated depression is a major contributor to suicide, free depression screening is offered year round to anyone. Children from age 6 and above can be screened. This has often been the first step in the process. Many clients have told SPS that being able to walk through the door, have the screening done, and get help, has been the first step in a successful journey out of depression.

Answer 3

Call your church ,help line, or local health care group.

Good Counselors cannot give advice on the net.

Answer 4

Please don't go to the internet for something like this. You have no idea who you could be communicating with.

Go to a priest, minister, rabbi, school guidance counselor, someone you can trust.
