Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Today was a pretty crappy day, I was extremely unproductive, my chronic fatigue was so bad I literally felt like I was deteriorating, I didn't take care my physical well being i also only ate like one meal and it was my birthday cake so it doesn't really count and I kept on trying to watch videos about mental health and couldn't get through 2minutes without changing it, I feel like there's too many things wrong with me and there's nothing I can do to fix it

I'm sorry you had a bad day. Does your school offer counseling services to students?

Have you ever called the Mental Health services at your County Social Services office? They often have services based on income or need and you might be able to find some Mental Healthcare there if you're not able to get you parents to take you for care.

I am sorry things have been so difficult for you. Depression and anxiety are so difficult, and until you've faced them you have no idea how debilitating they can be. For me, the only thing that worked was talking to someone, a counselor. It was one of the most difficult things I have ever done, it was so hard to ask for help, but I can't express to you how much it helped. Just to have someone to support me, to understand what I was facing. When everyone else just dismissed me, someone was there to tell me that it would be okay. I know that it's hard to reach out, but I think you would find that it helps to have support, someone who can help you sort through all of this.
