Hi there I suffered from depression when I was 16. I also have an amazing family was top of my class great friends. Sometimes the expectations can b too much for you... To always have good grades and be happy and friendly. Do u find yourself crying for no reason? Or is it a build up? Also if you have a supportive family let them know what's going on... For me it was the first step to feeling good again... I went to therapy and that really helped. It's been ten years now and i live a very normative life.

Please go to your doctor & let them know what is going on. Sounds like you are depressed. There is help out there & the sooner you get it the sooner your life will get back to normal. Please don't think you can "kick it" by yourself. The longer it goes on with no help the harder it is to get it under control. Please sit down & share with your boyfriend how you are feeling. He can't help if he doesn't know. Help him to understand what you are feeling & let him know it is not his fault. The bottom line, help is out there, please seek it!
