Breath through it. Sounds silly I know, but breathing. Taking just a few moments to just breath. To feel my life, to just stay for a moment and live. For no one and nothing but myself. To take that time, no matter what to just stop, stay and breath.

Seeking professional help will definitely get you on the right track, it's a start. And you've already made the first step, admitting/acknowledging the problem. Talk to a parent or a trained professional or both. They can help you.

seeking a doctor, and learning self care and speaking to people we trust can help with depression and anxiety. I have personally found deep breathing may not change the situation, but it is very helpful just to distract enough to get through the moment.

In my experience, getting close with some furry friends is a great way to help. If you can't own a pet, try going to your local shelter and offering to walk the dogs or play with the kittens. Most places allow this. Feeling unconditional love from animals is a great way to reconnect and feel like you're making a difference.

Talk to someone. Either find someone that you already know and trust, and ask for some one-on-one time with them. Be brave and ask for help from them. Or, if you’d rather talk with someone you do not know, do some research about counselors or therapists in the area. Coping skills will prove helpful with your anxiety, and feeling like someone understands you will be a great first step in dealing with the depression.
