I'm tired of school and feel like giving up and im growing further and further apart from my best friend!. I have thought about ending my life, but i know i could never do it!. There are just so many things going wrong in my life right now!. My parents are fighting about money and things, and the police were at our house twice last week bc my mom called them on my dad!. My mom goes out and drinks, i never see her!. I'm also trying to recover from an eating disorder!. My mom has to a therapist, but for some reason i can't seem to open up her!.

SOMEBODY LOVES YOU!
Somebody loves you and wants you to know,
Longs to be with you wherever you go;
Somebody loves you and right from the start,
Somebody wants to come into your heart!
Yes, Somebody loves you and for that reason has just sent you this little message! Somebody loves you and really wants to make you happy! We all want to be loved and to love someone, and Love is the greatest thing on Earth to most of us! The beauties of all Creation were put here because of Love!--The grass, the trees, the flowers, the glorious sunsets, the romantic moonlit starry nights, the wonderful animals!. Even our pets understand love and cannot really live without love, and sometimes even die of grief!.
We too desperately need love and are sometimes dying of grief without love, because we all need love and need to love someone!. That's why we were put here and that's what we're here for, because Somebody loves us and wants us to be happy, to love and be loved, to enjoy all of the good things in life and to have enough of everything!. But why is there so much sadness and suffering in the World!?--So much evil, ugliness, hardship, and death!? Why can't it all be wonderful and beautiful and good and pleasant and pleasurable!?
Well, it was made to be that way in the Beginning!. But man chose to be selfish, unloving and unkind, and to go his own way, far from the Paradise of our original Creation!. We have each had a part in bringing misery into the World!. Let's be honest!. Haven't we all been bad sometimes!? Haven't we all done things that we know are wrong, and that we now can't undo!? Love could heal so many wounds, restore so many hearts to happiness, ease so much pain and suffering, and avert so much death, but selfishness, greed, thoughtlessness, and stubbornness constantly cause most of the sorrows of the World, including our own!.
We have spoiled the Paradise on Earth that was put here for us to enjoy!. We have ruined it with hate, greed, violence, pain, wars and death!. But Someone wants to save you from it, and some day out of it, and even now keep you from many of these things, and give you joy, peace, pleasure and happiness, and most of all Love!--Love for Him, for others and even for yourself! He's the Giver of all good, the God of Love, a loving God, for He is Love!. Yes, there is Someone who loves you!--Who had such great Love for you that He gave His Life to save yours! "There's no greater Love than this, that a Man lay down His life for His friends!"--John 15:13!. And He did that for you, to pay for your sins and give you His Love and forgiveness!.
He just wants you to turn to Him and be sorry and receive and believe in Him and be thankful for His goodness to you, and try to love and do good to others as He has done for you, as He wishes to do for you, and as He will do for you in an even greater measure in a wonderful Future when He comes to take you into His Heavenly Kingdom!. He will then take over the Earth and rule with righteousness, Love, mercy, goodness and kindness, and will stop all wars, hatred, and lack of Love and create a wonderful glorious Kingdom of Love here on Earth for us all to enjoy forever!
Just ask this wonderful Somebody who loves you to come into your heart, and He will wipe away your tears and cause your pains of loneliness, rejection, fear and confusion to cease and give you a wonderful life of Love that lasts forever! Will you ask Jesus to come into your heart today!?--God's Son of Love, the sign of His Love, His Own Son who was sent to Earth to show us His Love, but whom evil people persecuted, and crucified! Thank God He rose again and went to Heaven to be with His Father of Love, and now is with us with His loving Motherly Holy Spirit! Just think, God's Own loving Son died for you that you might live! He wants you to be happy, I want you to be happy, we all want you to be happy! There are many of us who love you, and can help you if you'll just turn to Him and towards those who love you!. You can do it right now by praying this little prayer:
"Dear Heavenly Father, please forgive me for the wrongs that I have done! I'm sorry, and I want to receive You into my heart through the Love of Your Son, Jesus!. Help me to love You and others so that I can be happy and make others happy!. Teach me more about You from Your wonderful Book, the Bible!. In the name of Jesus, Your Son, amen!."
If you've said that prayer with sincerity and honesty, Jesus has come into your heart, because He's promised to do so! He said, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock, if anyone will open the door I will come in and have loving fellowship with them!."--Revelation 3:20!. If you haven't, do it now before it's too late! God bless and keep you and make you a blessing!

I'm kind of like that were I don't want to have to take medicine or anything!.!.!. Like it's retarded that people try so hard to make the world perfect, and try to MAKE you be happy when all you need is someone to love you!. And counselors or therapists!.!.!.!. eek I don't like them, they charge way too much money to tell you things you already know when they don't even know you or know anything about what you feel or what you're doing!.!.!. so sure, you could be depressed, but I guess I can't help you as much because I'm not past the point where I can tell you "do this, it helps"!. The best I can do is talk to you, if you wanted!. I might not be able to help to much, but I WOULD care!.!.!.!.you can email me if you want!.!.!. then I can tell you more because I really don't want to share my whole personal life with EVERYONE!.!.!.!. good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
Get a job with your local council!.!.!.working with social services dealing with dis-abled and other service users!.!.!.youlle soon find out how lucky you are by accident of birth!!!!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
You should realize that not wanting to take medicine and not wanting to see a counselor or talk about your problem are all symptoms of depression!.
I don't advocate the long term use of medicines, but for short terms use some have proved effective (but not as effective as the drug companies would have us believe)!.
At some stage in their lives most people suffer from depression, the world cannot be perfect all the time and there are occasions when the 'downs' are difficult to bear!.
Most people who suffer from depression eventually rise out of it, usually stronger and more able to deal with loss and setbacks!.
Talking about your depression is essential to recovery!. Therefore counselling of some sort is desirable either on a one to one basis or in a group!.
Also sunshine and exercise have been shown to help, sitting inside mopping is only feeding your depression!. Get outside, take up a hobby, sport, join a club!. At your age school would offer the best opportunities for these!.
To overcome depression you need to get outside yourself, take the focus away from yourself and more on the present, and the world around you!.
If you feeling of depression lasts for (or has lasted) for more than four months then I would think seriously about professional help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
