i might be suffering from child depression?

by BindyMindy, Dec 14, 2007 11:12PM
Hi everyone, I looked up on google on some symptoms of childhood depression and I fit a LOT of the symptoms.Persistant sadness,difficulty sleeping,loss of energy, A LOT of recurrent thoughts of deaths, and feelings of worthlessness and inappropriate guilt. I don't know what to do.Could I be depressed? If so, what can I do and what should I tell my parents?

I can't tell if you are depressed from where I am sitting but the fact that you are seeking answers is a step in the right direction.  Tell you parents this..I do not feel well.  I need you to help me. These are the things that I think and feel.......(whatever they are) and I would like to see a doctor.

i'm 16 and i have some of the same problems....so just to let you know you're not the only one out there.  sometimes just talking to people helps, but sometimes really digging deep and asking yourself what is making you said can help.  at first you might think its just random, but there is usually something underlying that is causing these feelings...let me know if this helps
