I used to talk to my best friend, she was the only one who knew about my depression since I didn't really like socializing or anything. But I recommend that you talk to someone you're very close with, someone who knows you well, and who won't judge you, and will just listen to what you have to say before they say anything or tell other people,

Anyone you feel you can trust. Someone who loves you and will hear you out, and if you don't have anyone in your life that will listen you can always come on here and we will be happy to help! If it gets too overwhelming I would recommend seeing a therapist.

It's different for everyone. Most people talk to a therapist but some talk to their parents, friends, a trusted teacher , boyfriend/girlfriend, other family members.

You can talk to anyone who you feel comfortable with. There are many great listeners here on 7cups, you can speak with your parents and maybe try to see a professional therapist, or even just talking to close friends you trust.

Someone you respect and who has experience with the issue. It feels good to vent to friends, but speaking with a professional is the best way to help yourself.

I think you should talk to someone who you are close and comfortable to , it can be a family member, a friend , a teacher or anyone whom you think will understand. You can then seek professional help therapists or counselors who can help you understand your condition better.

If you think you have depression you need to talk to a trusted adult and that might be your parents or your doctor or therapist. Please talk to someone.

I talk to people I trust about my depression or I go on 7 cups and talk to a listener! I've realized over the years of having depression that it helps to talk to someone who understands where you're coming from!
