I agree. Please talk with a parent, guardian or trusted adult (does anyone in your family know that you have not had a period for 5 months?), and make an appointment with a gynecologist.
Teenagers do typically have irregular cycles, but skipping 4 months is not typical. As mentioned above, extreme exercise or weight loss can be factors in amenorrhea, or there could be other medical reasons that need to be checked out.
