One or more things might be contributing to your depression or hindering you. You may have a poor diet which is causing a chemical imbalance or making you depressed due to its blandness, have past trauma that is still bothering you because you don't know how to deal with it or because it was very painful, are encountering unpleasant smells often (like perhaps from a new rug which smells bad), have bland surroundings (you may want to decorate your walls with posters, have unpleasant parents, don't have friends or ones that give you bad to no advice when you ask for the help or when it's obvious you need it, you may have a boring getting-no-where life, or you may feel as if you're not getting your way in general (which frustrates everyone who feels that way).
I had problems with depression and suicide due to my parents neglecting my education, including knowledge about right from wrong, and not having much interesting or helpful to do. I also got mistreated a lot at various jobs I had and bullied at school for how I was dressed and appeared before I was 14.
Later I got stuck in a miserable substitute for a "normal" public high school and had next to no friends and soon after attending that school was bullied by the police off an on a few times. Other miserable things happened including being repeatedly kicked out, but God helped me beat my depression and saved me. I'm still depressed sometimes, but it's not as bad now and I always have hope.
Check out the link in my profile if you are interested in spiritual help, which I found has been a lasting and permanent solution heading towards perfect peace. I hope you show the link to others.

You should try and figure out what motivates her. If nothing motivates her than you did not figure it out yet. Play off her motivations and you gotta lead by example and always have a positive attitude. she needs goals and she needs to want to pursue them. I would have gotten in her face a long time ago. Everybodys life sucks if they look at it that way. Right now I could pick out all the bad stuff about my day, why, when I can just as easily point out the good, like, I did not get run over by a ******* car, thats good right. yall need to change your attitudes and get it together. Oh yeah and have her little punk *** read this. Life does not revolve around you so I hope, really hope this is not some attention stunt, I will give you the benifit of the doubt and chalk it up to the fact that you actually have a problem, but I still wont be easy. If you dont want to live for yourself anymore, live for your sister, she obvioulsy loves you.

i'm very sorry to take heed to approximately this occasion. Has she been to a psychiatrist (this is needed to do the learn in this to locate a sturdy one and don't TAKE HER TO AN MD. they at the instant are not superb for the duration of this section) to be sure she gets a perfect prognosis? If she is misdiagnosed and is placed on medicine for some thing she would not have, it could sometimes exacerbate the ailment. From the few information you probably did provide, it sounds to me like she might have bipolar illness; the information you provide are indicative of a manic episode. besides the shown fact that, psychological issues are very problematic to diagnose and that i'm no longer qualified to try this. i will inform you that I also have a BA in psych and a masters in social artwork, so I even have studied the areas. i'm specific you all have tried chatting together with her---have you ever found out if there is an journey that would have led to those responses? She desires to circulate to a psychological wellness midsection on the instant. She is eighteen so your mom and dad won't be able to legally stress her to circulate, besides the shown fact that this is needed which you persuade her. she will additionally income gratefully from seeing a psychologist (therapist). All you men can do is be a sturdy supportive equipment for her, as this is usually the main needed ingredient to keeping a individual in that state from ending up suicide. It looks such as you're doing each thing you are able to for her. i wish this helps. Remind her that each thing would be ok and that her emotions at the instant are not fact. I forgot to emphasise- she desires to circulate to the wellness midsection on the instant. she would be no longer able to harm herself there. After that, the psy team will strengthen a therapy plan for while she is discharged.

At age 15, there must be something deep and dark that she is hiding. Try to find out what it is. It may help clear up her suicidal tendencies. Was she attacked by friend or family? Is she pregnant. Make your own list and see how she responds.
Good Luck.

Please don't blame yourself. It's easy to see the signs in hindsight, not so easy when this stuff is happening. If you want to help her, first look after yourself. If she sees you falling apart it won't help either of you. Second, just listen if she needs someone to talk too. Don't try to offer advice, tell her to get better etc, she no doubt has therapists, drs and the like for that. Just try to listen, not judge and look after both of you. If you have concerns that she will hurt herself again, please tell someone. Don't keep silent, it's not betraying her to speak out and it could just save her life.

Encourage her to read the Bible (New Testament) and ask the Lord into her life. Maybe she could get involved with a church that has a good teen group. I'll pray for her. John 3:16
