1. Keep talking about how you feel to the person treating you for depression, and ask him or her for help talking with your family, possibly a family session or two.
2. Get plenty of sleep every night! Teens need 9 hours.
3. Don't watch crime and violence on TV in the evening, and keep music soft.
4. Set a time for homework so you don't have to worry about not getting it done.

Value a best friend. We all need one, we don't need a whole lot of them.
