Hi I didnt really know where to put this or if this was really the right place for this but I couldn't think of where else to go. I'm a 16 yr old girl currently studying for AS levels. I seem to constantly feel depressed - i'm not suffering from depression or anything that serious i just can't be happy.I just feel really unwanted, like no one really wants me around or that I can contribute to people. I get exam results on thursday and my parents say if they are not A's then I have to give up my jobs - one of the only times I actually feel happy is at one work and I'd hate to have to give it up. My mum always has a go at me for not being happy and the longer this goes on the more I can feel my slef confidence falling. If anyone has any ideas what I can do I'd really appreciate it. Mandy xxx

Talk to your mom more, tell her how you feel. She might be insecure about you having a job and being away from home because you're her child and she wants to be a part of your life. Tell her you're doing well and enjoy your work and would rather not give it up. Also make sure to schedule some time with her, like going to the movies or somesuch.
As for other depression advice, I say eat regularly and healthy, exercise a bit every day(doesn't have to be weight lifting at the gym, can be something fun), and let people know how you're feeling. Talking about your feelings is a great way to deal with negative ones.

once you experience a nasty mood drawing close, flow for a walk. yet another threat is to run a warmth bath. Sorry about this, yet you're going to could employ some efficient questioning. even as someone says something that upsets you, only say: "i'm sorry, yet that remark truly disenchanted me" and attempt to flow on from it. Make a itemizing of cases once you experience like you're going to lose your mood and then attempt to record ideas you are able to stop your self doing it. you are able to also income fro anger administration training, which will hit upon why you develop into offended, and grant you with ideas to employ that can help you you to save your mood. wish that is functional!!

Always remember that your value and worth are in God's eyes.
You are young and life is tough at 16. Relax, take it as it comes and widen your vision life-wise.
Life, happiness and contributions to others are all good, your life on earth is a journey, be patient and open-minded.
