Um, hi.
I'm 14, and I'm not supposed to be on here, but I have depression. Really bad. Trauma and feeling horrible, nightmares, low self esteem. So far, I haven't found any real people who are my age that can help, or help me do things that will make me feel better that I can do myself.
Just... Any suggestions would help. To relax. To feel better about myself. Anything, really. I'm so stressed and don't want to feel alone anymore. I know that it's not just a phase, because I know I need help. Thanks.

Hi Welcome_to_my_life,

I am sorry for the way that you are feeling. Yes seeing a doctor or a school counselor is a good way to start. You know you aren't feeling right, you know you are depressed. So please talk to one or both.

Hang in there,

Hugs, Karen...
