well, i only have a few friends, but we really don't talk much or do nething outside of school, so i guess they really aren't friends, but i talk to them. and then my parents, they don't ifght or nething, and they still live together, but their SO BORING!! they never talk, never do anything. they only talk to me about school, and my brother has problems of his own that i really don't care about, i talk more to my BIRD!! yes, my bird, than my family. I have NO emotional support, if i told my parents about my depression i think they'd just laugh and say i'm overreacting, but really, they barly know me! I know i need help with my depression, but i just don't know how to get it. Any advice???

Answer:

Go to your family doctor or see a psychiatrist. If you are suffering with depression, you need some help. It will only get worse with time. People who suffer from depression and do not seek help often end up committing suicide. Your life is worth more than that. Seek help immediately. You need to talk with your parents about this problem also. If they don't seem to listen, make them listen. Depression is a serious illness that needs treatment.

Please get help. I wish you the best.

So you actually have never tried telling them? Why don't you? You never know how they will truly react if you never ask. You just can't assume things, I mean parents can suck but they love us. I think that you should tell them, and if they confrim your thoughts, get help yourself. Go to a mental health clinic, and talk to a trained professional that won't laugh in your face. Depression is serious.
