What kind of symptons are you feeling? Are you feeling very alone? Are you afraid of what's going to happen? Are you thinking that nobody cares for you or whether you would live or die? If you are feeling any of these things mentioned go to see your family doctor. If you don't want to tell your mom, fine, but go see the doctor. Let him talk to your mother. Is this something that you've had before? If it is and you didn't do anything about it then maybe you should see the doc. I am a Registered Nurse and I've worked at least 15 years on psychiatry and believe me being depressed is no picnic. Three years ago I was hit with depression so I know what it feels like. Above all, never, never give in to feeling like you should kill yourself. That is absolutely the wrong way to go. Please, go see your doctor.

Hey Hun, WHATEVER you decide, do not run away! If you can not talk to your mom directly, write her an email or slip her a note! I encoiurage you tp try to her. If you can not, find someone you can talk to. You can always call a hotline number too. Try the counselor, a good friend, a sibling. Take care of your self and try to stay positive. Know that you have every right to feel the way you do, but there is help out there! Good Luck Hun! I pray everything turn out great! It will take some hard work, but you will smile again soon! I just know it. I've been there!

It's best not to involve your mom in your depression. Can get quite complicated. But just let her know you are going thru a very difficult time emotionally (no need to tell her the details). Mothers are the last person to tell your problems to, they may be a large part of why you are suffering too, but, this isn't to blame them. You need to tell her not to worry about you as you seek other means to get help.
It's best to talk to someone whom you know well, a friend, or a pastor or someone from church whom you think is mature enough to listen without judgment.
When I'm vulnerable, at my age, I let God know. If you were here physically, I'd assist you toward some degree of emotional health. Pray. Ask God to lead you to emotionally healthy people who can offer you some help along the way.
Whenever you're anxious, stop and ask yourself why you are feeling this way. Perhaps you may stop long enough to find out clearly what's bothering you, then work on them.
Don't worry, thoughts are just thoughts. And I hope you won't physically run away. Work on the 'space' in between your ears.
God blesses.

well, the fact you willing to ask this question is already show a sign of mature . that mean you know you can not handle this by yourself. depression is very common among all age and it can occur to anyone because what one perceived to be a minor incident can be someone's diaster.
what I would recommand you to do is and you seem like very honest and stright forward person , that is nice. you don't have to go to your mom first. you can wait until you feel a little bit more comforable.
if you want, you can go to school first and ask which ever teacher you feel most comfortable and then ask for like counseling. I went to one for many sections during my college time because I was so so depressed. it helped but it take time and also, you got to remember you have to help yourself too.
don't runaway because a lot of problem actually got worse, unless you are dealing with domestic violence or domestic abuse, you can ask for help. there are a lot of community resource and many are free to help you.
no worry. I am kind of depress my self for a while.
but it is getting better. I did saw counselor few time but due to fiancially situation (I am working now) I did not continue.
but I am a faithful (try to be) Buddhist (trying) and I pray a lot to Buddhas and so far, it has works really well. I am still bit low but improving.
maybe beside counseling, you can find a "faith" source. it doesn't have to be Buddhism. as long it is a good religion, doing good deed and give you faith to go through this storm.
I will pray for you. even though I don't know your name, or where you are. but I know and can understand somewhat your pain, we all have pain, it just not everyone know it.

I'm a 55 year old mother of a daughter and have a granddaughter and grandson. If you can't talk to your mom, please leave her a note. If you have to--pretend you're writing to a Dear Abby-type person and pour out everything you're feeling. Please don't run away. I don't know how old you are or your living situation, but most kids think they can't talk to their parents. Give it a shot--you have nothing to lose.

tell your mom that you don't feel very good and that you want to see a dr--then the dr can help you and he can talk to your mom about depression. you are very brave. when i was a kid i had severe depression and i didn't know what to do..i went thru hell, if i had told someone i could get well sooner, hang in there..thingswill get better

If you can't tell your mom tell someone else. Think of y it is that you can't speak to her how might she react? Don't run away where would you run to and how would that solve anything. What you should think about doing is going to your guidance counselor.
good luck

it is sooooo much better to talk to your mom about it. even if you two dont talk much, this could be a way for you to get closer.
the same thing happened with me about 3 years ago. i wote her a note saying how i want to get help. she didnt say much after. just took me to the counsling ofice and they ended up figuring out that i was bi polar. i am so glad that i talked to her about it. i feel soooo much better, im actually happy for once.

Tell her you need to have a talk with her and just tell her your feelings. Your mom is human too and has gone through the same things as you.
