13 and Scared

I have been depressed for quite some time. My parents found out that I was cutting myself 4 days ago by taking my cell phone. The 2nd day they knew they had me talk to Kirk, my pastor. My appointment was at 4pm and from 3pm to 4:15pm I was shaking. I was so scared and nervous.

Now I have to see a REAL Psychiatric therapist, councilor, Psychiatrist or however it's spelled. What if they put me on an anti-depressent that just makes it worse or has weird side effects????? Please give me some advice because I don’t know how to deal with these feelings of loneiness, nervousness and anger.

I have the same thing that you do but my parents dont know.I dont drink any medicen because I am scared.I stopped cutting myself but I still feel depressed and during school,I start cyring for no reason. Now that school is over, during the night I cry myself to sleep. I know I need but I am too scared.

hun, i went through the same thing.. i've been to countless therapists.. and so many different meds. you just need to try and relax.. if they don't find the "right" medication first, it's no biggy. tell them, i don't want to take soemthing that might be the wrong dosage or give me wierd side-effects. just relax and you will be fine.

Melissa, I guess you must have typed in 20 when you registered and not 13. After your doctor has sorted out which medication is are best for you I'm sure you will not feel despair but alot happier in yourself. Good luck, you are on the right track. Keep in touch with us. We care!!

Depression is a horrible feeling. You shouldnt have to go through your life feeling that way and alone. They have ton's of medicens out there for it so if one doesnt work then you can just try another one and Im sure you will find the right medicen with no side effects for you. I know its hard but try not to stress over it. Maybe if you talk to someone close to you or a therapist it will also you feel better.
