Is this depression? Im 14 years old.?

Cant be bothered explaining the reasons WHY i feel this way. But i have done for about 2 years now.

*Its a struggle to get out of bed each morning.

*There will be a period of time where i cant get to sleep until 5-6 in the morning

*And then a period where alls i do is sleep all day

*Ive attempted suicide twice

*Use to cut myself alot but havent since before christmas

*Skip scool or pretend to be sick all the time, my attendance is 60%

*I hate being around people, not that i dont like just that the thought scares me

*I cant sit with people behind me in lessons. I have to sit with a clear view of everybody.

*I get angry easily, always fighting

*But i cry over anything even if my mum tells me to tidy up ill burst out crying

*All i can ever think about is killing myself, what would people think etc.

*Im HATED by everybody round here

*I rip my hair out when im nervous

*I drink, smoke weed, take coke.

Reply:you definately need to get some help. 14 is way too young to start drinking and taking drugs. the first thing ou need to do is stop doing these things, and then get someone to help you sort your problems out.

Reply:Stop doing DRUG's!!! Fool
Reply:to be honest, why does it matter if a doctor says your depressed? is it an excuse for your behaviour???

A lot of things you mentioned are not symptoms, but actions you do. You KNOW what you should and shouldn't be doing, and I'm certain you know you need help or you wouldn't be here.

You can't say the shrinks no help cos you haven't said anything. That's your fault. you have to put effort into letting people help you. write down things you think a counsellor/who ever you see would find concerning about you....or pretty much everything you wrote here. Its not as hard as you think, most are very understanding and have seen hundreds of people worse than you. Mine lets me just stare out the window while talking and he looks at the ground. They can't say anything to your parents if you don't want them too.
Reply:You may not actually be depressed! Although you exhibit the symptons of someone depressed it may be other reasons which are deep routed. If you are depressed you need to look at the reasons WHY. Does your lifestyle dictate the things you do or do you do what you do because of your lifestyle?



It is well known that drink, drugs and other forms of "getting high" only enflame depressed people. Many people are depressed take drugs and drink. This makes them more depressed and the route for the addict? They drink more. It is a vicious cycle that must be stopped.



Drugs, such as marijuana, are known for creating initial euphoria. However, in the long-term they create memory loss, apathy and thoughts of suicide. Hearing "voices" and paranoia is often a drug-induced state. If not it can be a sign of a schizophrenic condition.



The first step to getting "better" is to approach your GP. He can refer you to a specialist for treatment. Although you may think the condition you have is rare or beyond treatment is is not. Many people have the same problems you have and with the right treatment have found new strength and a new life! The biggest step you will take is the first one.



Good luck!
Reply:I am sorry sweetheart but you are depressed,more than. the thing is, only you can get yourself out of the state you are in. first of all, go for walks in the sun. any streching or aerobic exercises.stop taking prescription drugs and the coke you talk about, instead, take st john's wart omega-3s. eliminate asparatime. those are some of the things you can do to help yourself. get yourself a penpal.
Reply:You already know you are depressed.

You need to quit drinking and the other things. Alcohol only makes you more depressed and not just when your under the influence. I don't even know how to stress how bad you need to quit doing coke. I've had my problems with drugs and take it from me, quit that stuff now! The only thing with mary jane is that anti-depressents won't work because the THC in weed is a very thick substance that coats your brain cells and it actually blocks out the drug. You probably can't get anti-depressents though because your a minor.

Diet, exercise, and a clear mind are the natural ways to cure depression. Please stop drinking and the drugs for your own benefit.

If you want to know more about me like on these subjects feel free to ask but through email cuz I'm not too keen on airing my dirty laundry.

Feel better!

Peace out,

Chelsea

Reply:We have so much i common, only i never did drugs. I tried to kill myself once when i was 12 years old. I have the same exact sleeping problems and I cry a lot. You are depressed but i agree that the drugs will make it worse so stay away from them. I wish you good luck and if you want, you can talk to me on myspace if you got one

Reply:Well Nicolas; If you are not putting any mood or mind altering chemicals into your body without the Doctors knowing about it, and if you are not drinking any beer, wine, or booze; then you are probably depressed. I cannot diagnose you because 1. I am not a doctor. 2. I haven't interviewed you.

If you answered my questions with a yes; then you are depressing yourself. In that I have 40 years of experience.

If you want to email me and we can discuss this further.

If You answered my questions with a no; then only God can help you anymore than your Doctors are already doing.

Sliteofhand I am discreet. look it up in wikipedia
Reply:Yeah, you're depressed. Smoke more weed. You've got to at least do something to make yourself feel better, weed's a good start. But for god's sake, lay off the alcohol %26amp; coke, those will only make you feel worse.



You definitely need more sleep. In all seriousness, that's probably the #1 problem you have right now. Lack of sleep causes aggressive feelings, irritability, paranoia, violence towards others %26amp; yourself, depression, overall dementia. Do whatever you can to cure your sleeping problem, and you are likely to gain a lot more peace of mind.
Reply:you need to sort yourself out, maybe set small goals for yourself by getting a hobby even if you don't have an interest. Hormones have a lot to do with it you can buy Rescue Remedy from a health shop to help you feel a bit better, this sounds like depression but it will not last forever believe me I have been there just try and be happy x
Reply:well for a start get of the coke as its helping to send you into an early grave , a young girl like you should be full of life not depressed , you need to see a doc talk seriosu to ur family and get off the drugs and cigs as you won't need to kill your self if you continue taking coke as that will kill you anyway

get HELP ASAP and live the life you have , your young and enjoy it you may also want 2 try anger managment , as anger causes depression good luck and get help fast
Reply:Go to your GP and tell them all the things you've said on this page. Ask for a second opinion, and be honest with the doctor about your drug abuse so that you can get the help you need. Buy a rescue remedy spray and spray it on your tongue when you feel scared. it also helps relax you when you need to go to sleep. I had some of these problems as a teenager, although I didn't take drugs, and found I couldn't really talk to my mother about anything. Do you have another adult you get on well with, perhaps a relative or teacher. I don't know why people won't take you seriously, but i think you have something more than just depression, possibly bordering on psychosis. don't think you can't get better, because you can. print this off and take it to school tomorrow and show somebody. Take care.
Reply:It sounds like depression and anxiety with you feeling down and avoiding people. Being cautious towards people may be because of something that has happened to you or the way you have been treated. Cutting yourself is a way of feeling in control when you feel overwhelmed by your circumstances.



Why worry about what people will think. What's most important to you is what you think.



If your mum asked you to tidy up instead of telling you to would that be better? Being treated with respect makes me feel better.



Hope you get it sorted



Best Wishes



You're most probably not hated by everyone around you. If people haven't had chance to get to know the real you then they just don't know you
Reply:what u need to do is find something to do with urself, killin gurslef isn't the answer. Think about all the ppl who suffer each day becuz they don't have a home or education. Surround urself w/happier ppl, ppl who care bout u. Find a hobby. to get myself out of depression i had to listen to music every day or clean up, heck even walk around.

hope it works out :)
