Hi. I'm 16 years old and have been severely depressed for about 4 years. I've never tried counseling because I don't want to pay someone to are about my feelings and give me meds.... I want to be better but I feel like that route won't work for me... and ideas and/or suggestions?

It's easy to understand how you are feeling about going to a counselor.

Have you told any of your family or friends how you feel?

Have you triedhttps://www.7cups.com/depression-help-online/ or going to the depression chat that's loacated under group support?

Hi, Avalily. There are some professionals (counselors, social workers, therapists) who donate their time for free on thissite.
