You're right, I do have options...but which person to turn to...I just don't know.
y'know, I think i'm just nervous, I don't know what'll I'll say if I speak up. i'm not one who would be so upfront. i'll become so emotional and stuff (it's happened before).

Trust me I know how you feel. I used to have the same problem. I didn't want to talk about it with anyone because just thinking about it I would burst into tears - sobbing tears. It's scary, especially with a stranger and even sometimes with someone you know because they just had no idea. But it's OK to be emotional. You're being brave just by posting here so I think you have it in you to be brave enough to tell someone! Just be honest about what you've been feeling and experiencing, make sure you make it a point that whatever is going on with you in interfering with your daily life, including school. That part of it is very important for them to know. I don't know enough to suggest who you could turn to, but I do hope you can think of someone, even if you aren't that close (like an aunt or something) don't let your depression fool you into thinking that there's no one you can turn to!
