hi jenni, my name is trey, i kind of have the same problem. i guess why i came here was to learn more about the illness and to decide for myself if i needed help. i attempted suicide and was found almost gone by my father, he had me locked up at an institution for a month but the place treated people like test subjects so no good really came from it. i just thought another somewhat similar experience might help you to know that your not alone. i wish i could help more.

Hi Jenni. It's not unusual to think of suicide some time in our lives. The difference lies in how seriously you think of it. However, this is where it can be of some help to take the free depression test we offer on the site and print it out to take to a doctor's. The test doesn't diagnose; it's a tool that helps the doctor know where to look for trouble spots. As a teen, emotions can be all over the place at times. However, if you feel worse than you think you should feel, it's always better to get yourself checked out by a doctor.

Hi, Im not sure if i should be here or not, i dont know if these feelings im having are depression or just typical teenager thoughts, To start off im 18. i have these on and off feelings. Some nights im fine and feel great, then some nights i feel alone, worthless, scared that im gonna feel like this forever. I've even got to the point where i thought about suicide. Ive tried talking to ppl about it, but each time i get the same responce... that its all a pity trip... which i dont think it is. i dont know exactly where im going with this. but any insight or anything would be great. thanks Jen
