Hi, sareeras...it's nice to meet you, even if you are feeling bad. I hope that you feel better soon.

I agree with Always...try your parents first. I think most parents will react well if their kid sits down and tells them what's going on. If you can't say it, then write it down or print out what you wrote here. It's really hard to say everything you want or need to say to make yourself understood sometimes when you're feeling bad.

You'll definitely need to see a doctor. Most family docs are at least somewhat hip to treating normal depression. If you see a regular doc, ask if there is a psychologist or therapist he/she can refer you to.

Recovering from depression can be hard work, but it is very treatable these days with drugs and therapy, so don't worry about that. You're not a drama queen...you just need a bit of help through a rough patch.

Hope this helps!
