Hi Cece,
There are lots of ways of helping depression,I have used medication and counseling and they both helped and right now I feel ok without any help.

Is there anybody you can talk to who you can trust?

I'm so sorry hun :/ I know how much it hurts to go through what you are going through. But I have great news for you! There is help, more options than you think. The best option is to get professional help. That way you can get anti depressants and/or therapy. School social workers are a great start they can help you talk to your parents about how you are feeling and help with any bullying at school. If you can't or don't feel like you can talk to an adult. You can use coping skills to help any urges that you are getting. Whether you go on a run, write, distract yourself, shower, do something that you enjoy, or talk to someone on VT, you are fighting your depression. As for suicide, I was sort of like you, at first I couldn't get myself to do it but after awhile the pain was to much so I went through with it and ended up getting hospitalized. So if you are feeling suicidal call a suicide hotline or go online to Crisis Chat.com It will allow you to chat with a professional via the internet so you can get help with your suicidal urges. Sometimes you just need to tell your parents. Very bluntly so you get the help that you need ASAP. Example, "Mom, I know this is not going to make sense to you but please don't ask any questions right now, I just need help. I need to go to the ER, I'm feeling suicidal. I need to go now" You get the idea. Any way, I'm here if you ever need someone to talk to. Stay Strong :hug:
