how can I stop depression

[forever_zahraa]

Hi, so I have depressed for a while now I used to be depressed about 1yr ago and then I stopped like I would cry my self to sleep every day sometimes for reasons and most of the time for non I tried to talk to my mom about it she made it worse for me. Then I started cutting, which I regret doing so bad and then afterwords I suddenly stopped. Now for about a month I'm back to being depressed and it's getting worse it caused me to have anorexia which made me now a bulimic I tried to kill my self when I was in a room with my cozins and out of no where I started crying then I took a key and cut my wrist and started getting out of control. I was so close to killing my self but they basically saved Me from that. One of the reasons from depression is cuz I moved somewhere that I hate because all my freedom goes away my family changes like 3 very thing changed. So I'm alone In this there is no one I know that I can trust, all I want to know is how can I stop with this depression

Hey, Sweetie, I am a mother of a 14 year old who has issues with depression and cutting. At first, I didn't understand why she was so unhappy and was cutting. I wanted her to snap out of it and chalked it up to just being a teen. Your parents may not understand how badly you still feel
She now is taking anti-depressents and has therapy, and I have learned that she doesn't need a reason to be depressed, she just is....and when she cuts , she can not help it. She now has up days and down, but is doing much better..she did try to over dose once in the beginning, so you can see, she was really hurting. I do know that you alone can call 911 and let them know how bad you feel and you are suicidal, if you need to.I would tell your parents first. Some times you need to be hospitalized for a few days to get your meds straight. There are so many treatment options for you, if one doesn't work, another will. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. There are so many girls like you, it is so hard being a young girl, hormones can really make you feel depressed also. I hope I helped you some, and I will pray for you!

Dear Zahraa: I would like to help you; I need to know how old are you. Also I would like to know if you take any medication for depression or for anxiety, and if you have been feeling dizzy or with imbalance any time and if cutting yourself relieves you.
