I feel somewhat trapped. I have failed to kill myself out of cowardice. I feel that I might be headed down that dreaded path of depression once more. It hasn't been 4 weeks, so the Prozac can't do anything. I just feel lost and confused. Am I really meant to be dead at 13? Do I really have anything to live for?

I don't know what to do...

Well, if Prozac can't work, there are many other molecules to try out there, really.

It's not that Prozac can't work, it's that my doc syas it takes 4 - 6 weeks to really help. It's barely been 2 weeks...

Phil..

My daughter became ill when she was 12or13 and it was a long hard battle. She went through many meds before she found the right combination (anti-depressants and anti-pyschotics. She also had one hospitalization and intensive therapy for a number of years. But there is hope.....

She is now 24, a college graduate, has a full-time job that she enjoys and nice boyfriend.

Was it hard work to get this far? Damn right! I was there for her, but she did all the work. I did all the worrying I feel bizzare. And now she is reaping the rewards of working so hard and putting up with so much.

She no longer takes medication, but she definitely is aware of the warning signs that her illness might be returning and is able to ask for help.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask me here or PM me.

I'm sorry you're feeling down, but I'm glad you're here. What's your day like? Do you have a pet? I ask because I got two kittens and they really crack me up.

I was a thirteen year old mess myself...and I can strongly relate to your feelings! I did'nt have any prozac to help me deal with it I had to trash my life for the next 20+ years...in hind sight, I would say that I only started to see changes in my life when I truly understood that I was the one in charge of my "thought life" and that I therefore was the only one who could help me. the point is, start watching what you are thinking and telling yourself about yourself,others,and the world...these things make up your "belief systym" and give birth to just aout everything else about you.
