I think I'm Depressed?!

I think I'm Depressed?

I think I may be depressed. I'm thirteen. At home my mum and dad argue alot over money..my mum drinks as well..she isnt an alcholic..but she's had a gastric bybass and all the alchohol goes straight to her blood. She gets insulting and argues with everyone after just a few glasses. At school I have little friends and they are just people I say Hi to, I just can't seem to make friends..I want a best friend to just talk to..but thats not going to happen. It doesn't help either that I'm overweight..I'm not very overweight but I hate the way I look and am alwaysself consious. Recently I lost my Nan and My grandad. I do well at school but won't be able to go to theatre school because my family can't afford it. All this in my life makes me upset..I just cry randomly when I Think about my future..I tried to tell my mum I may be ill and she just said don't be silly....

no, you're not depressed, you're just confused and complicated. you need to take it easy. you know, once you turn 13, you feel like the world around you is changing and that everything is not the same as it was when you were younger. that's normal, that's so part of being a teenager, which i hate!! i'm 15, and i still don't quite understand the stuff going around me, but i try to be brave. You should be brave too and i think you are already!!!You seem patient and that's a good thing. Keep doing well in school, you're lucky because i try so much and i just can't manage to get all A's.. lol. Do you enjoy theatre school? If your family can't afford it and you enjoy it, then now is the time to babysit and try to earn cash so that you oculd possibly try to do what you really want. If you still can't afford it, then, i guess you just have to switch dreams. Your grades are the only thing that will get you faaar in the future!! good luck girl and never EVER give up! you're strong!!! lol.
