Calling Childline is probably a great idea!. To me, that sounds like it could be depression, I'm not an expert though I have plenty of personal experience!.

You're not alone, there are other people that go through this!. 14 year olds can get depression!. I think it's best to call Childline or talk to your gp or something - and the sooner the better!. It sounds to me like you're in a bit of a dangerous place, with self harm and suicidal thoughts, along with the other feelings!.

You should congratulate yourself that you are in that age group (Adolescence) which has been named by the psychologists as the "Golden years of Life"!. It is also called as the years of "Stress and Strain" in which the individual is neither a child nor an adult and is often misunderstood!.You are also going through this stage where all your efforts are not been rightly acknowledged, even by your parents also!. Parents are also going through a stage which is also stressful i!.e!."To be a parent of a Teenager"!.They are also full of mixed feeling where they are also confused how to see you, either as a child or as an adult!.
This phase is very crucial in everyone's life!. This is not Depression!. What you need to do is try to take up activities which are your hobbies, read story books which are for this age group in which you may identify yourself with certain characters in the story, teach someone who is in need, love and care your pet and see the reciprocation,etc!.!. As you had no right to come in this world, you also have no right to go from this world!.This right is only with the Supreme Power "THE ALMIGHTY"!.Live life to the full because you have taken birth as a Human Being, the SUPERIOR birth, after going through the cycle of birth and death in 84 lakh lives!.Enjoy it!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I went through my teenage years experiencing what you are talking about and thought it was normal!. Not realizing how much of life I was missing because of this disease!. Now that I am dealing with the issue instead of ignoring it life is better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should reach out for help especially since you're 14 and it's hard to tell at that age what is normal hormones, etc!. messing with you and what's real depression or anxiety!.

Let them know how you're feeling and if they're anything like I was when my 14 year old came to me for the same reasons, they will take you to a doctor where you can get some help or even just talk!.
