For a very long time I've been obsessing over problems that I've already gotten over or have already found the answer to. My first problem dealt with my religion and my trust in God. I dealt with that for about 4 months then another problem came up which I really don't want to talk about and that has stayed ever since. Then the religion one came up again but its weird cause I found the answer but I'm still scared. I've been dealing with these 2 problems for months! Porbably close to a year even! I start crying and I just can't take the pain. I used to go through depression. I've thought of killing myself even though I knew I wasn't going to do it. Im 13 and I've just started the 8th grade. Ive had these problems before but they have NEVER affected me like this! They don't take away my free time and stuff like that. Im still able to kind of enjoy things but it hurts when I have these thoughts and feelings in the back of my head all the time. The thoughts sometimes come and go but I still feel pain.

Do you have a school counselor? Or would you be brave enough to tell one of your parents that you want to see a counselor?

You have to wait to apply to the school counselor at a certain time and I did tell my parents about my depression a long time ago but these feelingsand problems come and go and it think it just won't help.

At 13 you are going though a lot of hormone changes, this can cause all sorts of issues.

But with religion, many people will doubt and worry their entire life. They want some proof or some level of being sure but can't just accept.
Others just don't believe in religion or any god and think it is all silly.

Only you can find your own religious path.

OK but if they go on for a longer time should I contact someone?
