I have suffered with depression aswell. im 17 and had severe depression from 12-15 years of age. I never told a doctor i just gradually felt better towards the end. I wanted to commit suicide everyday and spent hours planning it out, hours crying and the whole time i never told a single soul the true extent of how i was feeling. I believe i am slipping back into depression now which i want to avoid. i am going to see my gp, however i do think its useless speaking to someone who has never suffered with depression. My mother has suffered with depression and i have had a very uncomfortable upbringing as a result. My sister dealt with her upbringing by getting angry continu ously, my brother turned to drugs but i bottled it all up and put on this fake smile for the whole time. I don't want the embarrassment of going to the doctors and telling my dad that im suffering with it but i dont think i can go through this again without taking action on my thoughts. :(
