I think I'm depressed but I don't want to tell anyone?

Depression is a serious issue. It is best you tell family members and friends in attempts to get help and support (both being very important).

You don't have to tell anyone but it can help you to feel less alone and lighten the load a little.

It is very natural that a depressed person gets to hide their depression from their family and friends , cause the depression itself gets to cause that , makes the sufferer not to vent , want to stay alone and devoid from the world , also makes them hate themselves and hate getting help...

The first step to dealing with depression is to accept that you are depressed, the second step is to seek help. Only then can you truly overcome this hurdle.

You need to talk to a counceller or psychologist about your feelings before they get seriously worse.

It would be best for you to tell a parent and seek help, there are doctors that are fit to help you

You can call a hotline at anytime or refer to the 7 cups guide book. Telling someone that you may be depressed is your first step to happiness and getting better; that's not a bad thing. Take your time to realize what you want to do and what choices you want to make.

I felt the same way. But I think you should tell at least one person, someone that you trust deeply and that you can go to when you're in need of someone to talk to. When I first realized that I was depressed, I didn't want to tell anyone, I felt embarrassed and shameful. But that isn't how it's meant to be. Slowly tell a few people that you trust, and if it gets serious than you should at least tell a parent so you can get help. At the bare minumum, tell a friend you'll feel much better, I know i did.

I know what that is like. I feel depressed a lot too. But, I realised I had to tell someone about it. Trust me, it helps.

Try talking to a professional as there are many aspects to depression so you could be affected and if your problem is bad you may need a lot of help it is better to open up even if you don't want to.
