Look, I am a fourteen year old kid and i have also had a pretty rough year, but let me tell you something, do not give up. This past year has been a struggle for me and my family, but once we found out the problems i was having, we were able to find the proper doctors and medication. I know that it seems tough right now, but you have to hang in there. Nothing is going to happen over night, but if you work hard anything is possible. Please trust me, if I could overcome my problems I am sure you can. As far as your job goes, you will have to make the choice whether or not to go back to school or live with what you have. Maybe it would be a good idea to go see a physiologist or psychiatrist to help work out your problems. Whatever you do, don't eat bad food just because you are depressed, or upset with something. Just say no to junk food. I also suggest that you spend more time with your son. Just remember that he will only be a baby once, so don't spoil that. No matter what always find time for you and your family. Bring your kid to the park or read books with him and always encourage him to do better. Never discourage him or ignore him, that will just make him feel bad, trust me I have a five year old brother. One day soon, sit down with your husband and discuss with him what you think the two of you should do in the future. I hope all of this helps and I wish you the best of luck.

You definitely need to see a doctor before it gets worse to determine whether therapy, medication or both are the best route for you to take. Also, a quick fix that I found is eating dark chocolate - it gave me just enough to get over the depression feelings - but it doesn't last long - maybe a couple hours max.\n\n\nwww.mommastayshome.com

This will work:\n\nTry a 4 hour job (part time) job; that you don't necessarily LOVE, but you do it for the sake of it, and some money. It may take your depression away forever.

Hello there! I am sorry to hear you are feeling so down. People are so quick to say someone has depression. You say that you act like you are the happiest person on earth, but you aren't happy on the inside. You just have to believe that you do deserve happiness! I believe that you just have low self-esteem and self worth. 17 is a hard age! Believe me...looking back I felt the same way and wondered what the heck was wrong with myself. Just the pressures nowadays that are being put on young people is enough to make someone want to give up! I know to be happy is easier said than done sometimes, and it is a lot of work sometimes. Once you start believing in yourself it will get more simple. Life is too short not to have fun--experience life. I am not saying go out there and do foolish things, but enjoy the silly stuff. I am an adult and I still like to go to toy stores and play with the puppets! Because it makes me happy. I am not here to make anyone happy but myself. It sounds selfish, but before we can help others, we have to help ourselves. Just the fact that you asked the question on here shows that you are ready and willing to make a change for yourself. I have done a lot of "stupid" things in my life, but I have learned that loved ones are there for you no matter what you do. If people really love you, they are there for you no matter what! You can make little changes in your life. Use positive affirmation..when you start to feel those thoughts of hopelessness creep in--say to yourself that you are not listening anymore. If you are still feeling beyond hopelessness, there are many people you can go to to talk about it. It is not a sign of weakness to ask for some help and guidance. It is you standing up and saying you are sick of being that way and taking control of your life. I wish you luck and hope that I helped a little! Take care!

Honey, I've been exactly where you are now.  Please don't be so hard on yourself.  If you are depressed, see a professional, you may need an anti-depressant.  Sometimes the chemicals in your brain just get all messed up and meds can help that.  \n\nThink of how boring and empty the world would be w/o you in it.  No matter how bad things may seem, you were put here on earth for a reason, you just have to figure out why.  And even though life can be extremely hard most of the time, it is still worth fighting for.  Please don't give up yet.  You can feel better.  Your life can be better.  \n\nIf you ever need to talk seriously about this, email me anytime.  I know that I don't know you, but I am a good listener.  Plus, I do know what it's like to feel empty inside. A few weeks in an institution for attempting suicide really opened my eyes.  \n\nSurround yourself with good positive people that love you and keep telling yourself that your life is important.  My email address is on my profile if you need.  Write me anytime.   Take care of yourself and God bless!!!

Hi, I feel the same way, lost and broken.  You are suffering from depression.  That is the easy answer, the hard part is how to get rid of the depression.  Depression is anger turned inward.  Start by asking yourself Do I feel angry?  If this depressed feeling lasts for more than a few weeks you should see a doctor.  There are 2 kinds of depression situational (the dog dies so you are sad) or chemical depression, one of the brain chemicals is out of balance.  Not a very big deal just ask you doctor.  I wish you luck.  If you want someone to talk to I give great advice, and it is always good to talk to someone.

Stop feeling sorry for yourself and start taking care of yourself. Why should anyone have to help you when you can help yourself? \n\nWAKE UP and take a look around you! Life can be very unkind, and unless you hit back and make the most of it (without depending on the help of others) you are going to be stuck in a "miserable" life.

I think you could benefit from some psychological counseling. It sounds like you're depressed.

Is there someone in your family you can talk to about how you're feeling? A close friend? If not, there are hot lines you can call where they have experts available to help you, and help you find solutions to your problems. When people talk about killing themselves, it's usually a cry for help. You need to seek out that help (you've already taken the first step.) There are experts with a lot of experience that can honestly help you deal with whatever pressures, difficulties, or depression is causing you to feel this way. A lot of people have felt exactly the same way you are feeling, and have gotten through it. You're definitely not alone, and happiness is not something that is unattainable, even though it may seem that way now. I wish I could offer you better advice. I certainly know how you feel.

You need to sit down and make a list of all the feelings and emotions that you are having and what you think is bringing them on. Then take your list go over it with your parents a friend a doctor councilor. Depression can be an illness. Some times it is simply having the blues. But it is a good idea for you to seek the help of someone you TRUST then it is to go on untreated or noticed.  \nThis is a great website. One that I send a lot of my female clients to that are your age. Has a lot of good info and resources\nhttp://www.girlshealth.gov/\nJust remember that you are loved and cared for by so many.
