I think I should talk to my doctor but I don't know what to do or say, I feel sad all the time esp. the past few years. Its starting to affect my work and has already affected my school work. i do not know what to tell my parents some things i dont feel like sharing and i cant say them on here.

Hi marjanmehr,

Welcome to PC. I'm relatively new here, but I already feel like I'm part of the family, and hopefully you will soon, too. I sincerely hope you'll feel comfortable enough to share your feelings with us here; everyone is very nice and caring, no one is going to judge you, and more than likely, someone will be able to relate to what your struggling with. alone and scared

You should definitely talk to your doctor. If it's interfering with your everyday activities, it's something you should address. If you're over 18, you don't have to tell your parents anything; you can get treatment without them even knowing.

What you should tell your doctor: the truth. Just tell her/him that you have been having a depressed mood recently (tell for how long), what your other symptoms are (e.g. insomnia, bodyaches, low appetite, etc.), and ask her/him what you should do. Your doctor, if she/he is worth anything, will be more than happy to help you.

I hope this has helped, and welcome to PC!!!!

Take care,

alone and scared alone and scared alone and scared

Welcome to the group, but you should see someone for help, you can't do it on your own. I was trying to find the quiz to take so you can show your doctor what's going on, but I couldn't. Just talk to your doctor and she/he will be more than happy to help you, or send you to someone who will. Be strong and safe, remember you a very important.

If it's interfering with your life it's worth talking to a Dr. about. Asking for help can be scary, but there's nothing to ashamed of and really nothing to be scared of. Lots of people need help. Be honest with your Dr., tell him what you're feeling and any physical symptoms and maybe he'll be able to help or refer you to someone who can. Doctors are there to help you, remember that.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
