Am I Depressed?

[SilverDragonfly13]

I'm 15, if it helps. I've been feeling really down and horrible since the last few months of last year. Also around this time, I started cutting myself as a coping mechanism, although I have been self-harming for years (not cutting). Also, I've been sleeping a lot more than I used to and I'm always tired. I feel worthless and guilty, though I don't have any reason to. I have had thoughts about suicide, but I know I could never go through with it. I just feel like there is no reason for me to be around. I've been worried about this for a while, so I've taken on-line depression tests. They've all told me I have severe depression. I don't know if I should trust them because on-line tests aren't always accurate. I don't have anyone to turn to because I'm not good at connecting with people and even if I do, I can't talk about my feelings. Am I depressed? If I am, what should I do and how? Sorry to bother you with my whining.

Asking for help isn't whining.  We wouldn't be on this website and trying to help if we thought people were just whining :) Suicide is not worth it.  You still have years ahead!  You can get through this :)  Message people on here, and we will listen to you.  :)

You are not whining, You are scared, and feel helpless. Don't feel this way, You are young andhave a whole world ahead of you. Get help,Talk to your doctor, theres a way to get away, Suicide is notthe solution. If you ever need someone to talk to hun, Please feelfree to message me, I will not judge you.
