What if this is not depression. What if it is normal - hormonal, a natural stage in life where you question your position in the universe? What if you are testing your surroundings? What if you are simply looking for an answer you have not yet found? You would think that as a therapist, I would jump on the depression and therapy band-wagon but I also strongly believe in the normal process of growing up. High School is not always simple, even for those who are most intelligent. We all go through ups and downs and times when things appear meaningless. Find what is RIGHT about your situation and you will find your "answer". Lastly, if you do think there might be depression on board, you can find organizations that provide free sessions for a period of time. And, it is possible to seek therapy in privacy, even as a minor. Explore your options and feel free to continue to make use of PC.
