Question:
Answers:
1. Depression is far too complicated a subject to role it all up in a single answer.
2. Aim to work on the causes of your personal depressive feelings and thoughts.
3. Most of the time finding someone that you can trust to talk with helps.
4. Faith helps many people and it gives them something to take their minds off themselves.
5. Some depression, but by no means all, is caused by chemical imbalances. Get to the doc and try some antidepressant an drug.
6. Sometimes this can be caused by brain tumors or gland disorders.
In short you are due for a complete check up and be sure you tell the Doctor about the depressed feelings.
7. I worked in a gas station at 16. How about a job. That will keep you busy.

umm what do you need help with? try going to a church group or something, there's plenty of people there that you can talk to.
hi iam in same boat i advise you to go to the doctors they can help a great deal I hate to be so blunt and harsh, but reality dictates that in cases like these you are on your own. Nobody can truly understand you because your situation is a one of a kind, you are a unique individual. Your mental state and emotions are obviously out of balance.
You need to start educating yourself and looking to the future. Create simple goals for yourself, put them in writing and learn how to take action and achieve your goals - Do not waste time.
The problems that you are experiencing today are a part of your journey in life. We are all afraid of making decisions that will effect our futures, we are all scared to commit to change - But it is inevitable. In order to grow, we must change and adapt. That is what makes us better than the generations before.
My immediate advise to you, is that you should not be alone and isolated. Join a team sport, make new friends and you will quickly learn that life is too important and short to hate.
Open your heart to the people around you and you will be accepted and more easily understood.
Best of luck with everything, i am exactly twice your age and have been through it. It will all work out in the end!
Try "Kids Help Phone" if you are in Canada, or call your local distress centre. If you look in the front of your white or yellow pages there are usually contacts for you to call for MH issues. I'd say "Good Luck" but I know that you are going to be okay.hang in there. sure I would be glad to help.
first off, you are 16! you have not even seen life, you are basically still in the womb, but now are nearing the time when you must decide for yourself, and YOU have the power and ability to change your life.
if you are depressed, then CHANGE what it is thats getting you down, thats the great thing about life, you control it, it DOES NOT control you, yes, there will be things that are out of your hands, and things you may NEVER understand, but everything else is clay for you to manipulate into whatever you want.
if you want a functioning bowl, then craft it, if you want an artistic sculpture, then sculpt it.
but dont give up, the reason things get so bad, is because it makes the good times seem even better.
if things were good all the time, you would be bored.
It is the darkness that makes the light so bright.
remember that.
there is always a blue sky just beyond the gray clouds and the rain.
Rough age. A few details would help. I remember being 16 and not having anyone to go to for help. The few people around me who said they were there for me, weren't really. There was a specific person in my life who was "bullying" me, and constantly putting me down. The thing that got me through was telling myself that I only had two more years left. Every day I kept telling myself that I only had X amount of time left. I knew that things would get better after those two years, because at the time I couldn't imagine them getting much worse.
As an escape, I turned to books, writing, and music.
Why are you depressed, and what have you tried to get out of it?
Don't you have parents? I know if my daughter were depressed I would want her to come to me. Maybe talk to God. He never tells! stay away from republican churches. work is the best medicine.
I'm sure you can do several things hear we go. your church,or i recommend your local mental health facility. or your medical doctor. i wish you would tell me what you are depressed about? you can e-mail me at ryoutrue2@yahoo.com. i will be glad to help you.I'm well a-ware on this matter! their is help out their. talk therapy and possible medication for a short while depending on how you are doing. some people have to take medication all their life. don't feel bad its okay. i don't think you will have to. but you do need to contact someone a/s/a/p to feel better. thanks Kat
Ok, everyone goes through that when they are 16. I did. What you need to do is re-evaluate your goals and what you want to do with your life. Try helping others. When you stop thinking of yourself and start helping other people, your problems will gradually seem smaller and smaller. Good luck and don't stress, buddy.
I've been there so I understand your pain.
What to do:
- Talk to someone -- anyone who you think will help -- a parent, a counselor at school, a minister, and older brother or sister, an aunt or uncle, a neighbor, whatever.
- Go to the doctor TODAY. RIGHT NOW. Get an anti-depressant -- they help about 100 percent.
- Get out of the house. Do things. Join a club. Get into sports. Make friends. When you're out doing things, it's much easier to forget about how depressed you are.
Good luck!
yo I get like that too. but don't feed it. check out www.holistic-online.com or 1stholistic.com. They have a stress management thing that helped me out. things will get better. you will find people to love you. i know i will as life goes on. try to pray, exercise, eat right, and just believe there are great people out there. i hope the best. remember you are important even though you don't feel like that. Go get counseling,it helps me to know that no matter what I have some one I can talk freely to.
ask your Dr about Zoloft after about 4 to 6 weeks things will be better
You need to get professional help. If you can not find professional help on your own, talk to an adult that you really trust. It could be a teacher, parent, friend's parent, religious leader, etc. Talk to someone, they will help you!! You might think that there is no one there to help you but there is.
