Answers:
I was diagnosed with depression too a few months back!. I became worse, thinking that my meds wouldn't be right with my issues!. I just realized that the very person who diagnosed me with depression is depressed as well! I was reading thru some stuff in the internet and found out that most shrinks go to shrinks to shrink themselves!

I overcame my depression with my own efforts!. Sure it is difficult, but it is a process!. We didnt become depressed in a snap!. There was also a process why we became depressed!. Take the 'process' lane again, only this time for you to be better!. Engage yourself in some groups that can help you out emotionally!. There sure are a lot of support groups anywhere!. You can meet friends!. Mingle with strangers (you could probably be old enough to think that there is something good with talking with strangers)!. Try a hobby or a sport so you can be occupied!.

You're feeling worse because you are allowing your depression eat you!. Overcome it! Its a state of mind!.!.!.and you hold your mind! Be more powerful than it!.

Hope this helps!. Good Luck!

edit : This is a very good start for you!. Having an initiative to change is something hard to do!. Believe in yourself sweetie!. Its not going to be a quick fix!. Assess the things that'll come your way!. Keep what you feel is good and throw away those that'll make you sad!.

You're young darling!. Enjoy your youth as much as you could!. Its easy to delight yourself with things as long as you allow yourself to!. Just be open and be free!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Good for you for wanting to help yourself!
If your medicine is not working, you need to tell your doctor and probably change to a different one!. There are quite a few out there!.
You should also get some good therapy to go with it!. The combination of medicine and therapy has the best results for people with depression!.
It is important to get the right combination!. Don't feel bad if it takes a couple tries to get the right medication or the right therapist!. It will be worth it!.
Good luck!

Medication isn't a cure!.
Therapy is, and it might take a while but don't
just stick on medication and expect it to resolve things!.
I'm not saying get off the medication but rather get therapy too or you are already in it then tell this to your therapist!. She/He is there to help you and will if you let her and try!.
In therapy, the therapist can only help so much!.!.you have to put effort into it too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

See a therapist!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
