So far removed from stupid...that it's the last thing you should be putting on yourself...darlin' you need to see a doctor and speak frankly to him/her about this.

Sometimes depression has absolutely nothing to do with us...it has to do with the balance of your body...your brain to be exact...chemicals which is in the makeup of every human being can sometimes go off kilter...when this happens one of the things that may have to take place is medical aid to restore the equilibrium. You can't pin point your empty feelings, aren't certain why you are feeling so hopeless and everything is horribly difficult to accomplish...lack of energy, poor sleep, or sleeping constantly etc. You feel as though a huge dark cloud is walking around with you hovering there just to make you miserable.

Been there...make an appt with your doctor or go to speak with a doctor at a medical clinic. Most likely blood work will be required to ensure all is ok as far as thyroid etc., goes. From there you will be assessed to determine if you are a candidate for Anti-depression medication. You don't have to be on this for ever...just until you are feeling more like yourself again...there are many out there that do not make you feel like you are a zombie etc., these meds have come a long way over the past few years...

You don't have to live like this and you certainly don't have to do this alone...you've reached out here for some guidance...now reach out to someone who can and will help you through this.

Good luck and now off the computer and onto the phone to start the journey back to yourself.

PS: Have you noticed either of your parents feeling down...upset for little reasons perhaps? This could be the beginning of a hereditary illness darlin'...talk to your parents...they might just be a lot more understanding (and aware of the situation) than you think. As I said meds aren't a great thing and hopefully you can get through without that route...but if this is hereditary (Bi polar/manic depression) etc., then you need to let others in who can help...ok? 15 year olds have tough times too...my daughter has gone through rough times and she's a year older than you...she talks to us darlin and you can talk to your parents too....open up that's the start of feeling better...

its not stupid. in fact ive felt this way before..but somehow i came out of it. good luck.

Talking to a therapist will help - I know it sounds terrible, but it totally will get your life snapped back on track and close down the suicide thoughts.

you should see a therapist, go to a doctor, find the things you enjoy in life and spend more time on them

It's not stupid, I have tried before too...maybe get some therapy? It didn't help me much but it does help some.

the best way is to have someone close to talk to it helps to find out what is making you depressed and then try to get it out of your life if you need someone to talk that has no connection write me vikingberzerker1@yahoo.com

I know you don't want to tell your parents, but talk to SOMEONE. Talk to your parents, a relative, a friend of the family or ME! Talk to someone. Do it now.

Please.

hello,

I'm sorry to hear you're so sad. I think i've been through a similar time to you and i know it's difficult when you just feel completely lost. Do you like your doctor? If you can, it would be really good if you could go to see your doctor as he or she can maybe find a counsellor for you to talk to, if you think it would help. Whatever you say to the doctor is also confidential so your parents won't find out.

On the other hand if you don't htink your doctor will be sympathetic, (as mine wasn't), i don't know how old you are but have you thought about maybe ringing childline? It's free, it doesn't show up on the phone bill and they might be able to help you work out what's troubling you. The number is: 0800 1111. Or you can write to the samaritans who offer a friendly person who is willing to listen to what you have to say. Is there anyone at school, (if you're at school), you can talk to? It's important you talk to someone. Even a friend who you trust. It's important that you're not going through this alone.

I hope that's of some help to you.

your not stupid... try getting a therapist or write in a journal so you won't be so depressed. good luck.

I know you don't want to tell your parents but you should try writing down your feelings and thoughts and everything that is running through your head, in something like a journal or a tablet and then leave it where your parents might find it. That way you can get help but you won't have officially told them.

Hi honey, at fifteen you are old enough to talk to your doctor in confidence, im 21 and have just recovered from a nervous breakdown, i know exactly how you feel.
Trust me love, suicide isn't the way to go, it's just a cowards way of thinking, what ever is happening in your life it's not worth you ending your life, how would your parents feel if they were told their fiftenn year old daughter has commited suicide?
What could possibly be happening in your life at your age to make you want to kill yourself i don't know but let me tell you this, you certainly do not want to be under a section 136 of the mental health act, that means being found or picked up by the police either in your home or public place being a danger to yourself because that is what happened to me twice, the first time i ended up in a phychiactric hospital, the second time i ended up spending over 17 hours in a police cell under constant supervision, and take it from me, neither are a very good place to end up but if you carry on the way you are that is where you are going to end up, you need councilling, but maybe you should talk to your parents and explain how you feel and why then they can get you the help and support you need but please, please, please do not go down the road of self harm, it can ruin your chances of future jobs and even relationships, you have a chance to make things right before things get too much out of control.
And you have nothing to be sorry about either, if you feel low then you feel low, this is why you need to talk to your GP ASAP.

Good luck honey and i really hope you sort things out soon.

Not that stupid, death is not stupid, nor is wanting to die, and even more so not wanting to tell anyone. Why should anyone know? If you are depressed enough to want to kill yourself then it must be pretty bad. You have my deepest sympathy.
