Lately I have been irratible, moody, loss of sleep, increased appetite and I think about how to kill myself everyonce in a while. I was curious as to if this is depression or not. If anybody could help that'd be great.

xsilentXteardropsx ,

We are not qualified to diagnose illnesses. We can help with problems from our own experiences of dealing with things, but cannot diagnose someone else.

The best thing that I could suggest for you to do would be to speak to someone you trust (maybe parents, physician, therapist, school counselor, priest, etc). Tell them what you wrote here or if you have trouble telling them, print a copy and let them read it.

You don't have to live feeling like this. Get some help and please keep posting so we know how you are doing.

Good luck, slow

I'd recommend you do an online test, or check the diagnostic criteria for depression... it sounds likey that you could be suffering from it. There is treatment though so it's not all bad!
