I really do feel like I am. I just don't seem to have fun anymore. I am losing my family. I am really tired and I am always hurting. My knees and my (stress legs). When I get stressed, my legs hurt. When I try to sleep, I can't, I have to take NyQuil and other sleep medicines. I just don't know. I cry a lot, and I am really sensitive. I am the only one like this in my family. I can't get comfortable. People are being really rude to me lately. I can't take this any more. I don't want to tell my mom, she won't understand. She never understands. Nobody understands. And I don't want to tell my doctor, he already called me a "hypochondriac" I really hate life. My dog is the only things keeping me going, without him, I would have already killed myself.

This is a very sad story. I know what it feels like to be depressed. Why don't you talk to a trusted friend or counselor about how you feel? Counselors can give you advice, answers, and even exercises to help you feel better. Also, why not try a different doctor. You don't have to stick with just one. Go to the hospital if you have to and get an expert's opinion. Depression is an imbalance of chemicals in your brain... There isn't anything seriously wrong with you. Your moods and emotions have given you a lot of stress. Try to relieve it by doing something that makes you feel better, (venting to a friend, sitting alone in a bubble bath, meditating and clearing your mind, etc.)
