Im not Suicidal

[abcd_efg1]

I'm a 15 year old girl and I think I may have depression. My friends keep asking me if somethings wrong because I never contribute to conversations like I used to. I've lost a lot of weight, and I'm not interested in anything anymore. During school when we're taking notes or doing an assignment I find its hard to concentrate on anything. Sometimes I'll just start crying for no reason, not because of sadness, anger, or frustration, I just start crying. My friends will invite me over to parties, but i always make up an excuse just so I wont have to be around people. But the weird thing is, I've never felt suicidal, I mean I've though about death, and wondered what it would he like to kill myself, but I've never actually considered it. Is this depression?

Sounds like at your age it may be partly hormonal.  Do u get depressed all month or is it a week or two before your period?  Pms can b horrible for some women,  I knw I'm one of them.  Have u started your period yet?  You may want to see a therapist or nurse practitioner who knws something about hormones.  And if u don't want to b around people sometimes, don't b.  and don't feel bad about it.  All the best to ya Hun.

I would concur with the above answerer,I believe that you are suffering from depression but there is help if you seek it,therapy and medication can turn your life around and you will feel better I'm sure.Before you take that step,you might want to talk to a family member you totally trust and get their opinion.All the best.

Sounds like depression, you need to confide in someone. Can you see a doctor. I think you should, it can get better with some help :) You may feel hopeless but you can get better.
