I'm a 16 year old girl who figured out that i had depression the middle of freshman year of high school. My name is Kimberlee. I tried taking my own life in 6th grade. I realized that moving wasn't the cause. I try to joke around about it so i don't feel like I'm the only one ...

what happened was that i knew that i wasnt alone
i was trying to get along with everybody
my long ass recovery started with talking to a theripist
after that i thought i was crazy
then i talked to a pschycologist
then i got put on antidepressants
i used to get very pissed off about it
i hated them
i knew that one day that i would get better
im getting better
im in couceling now
im in a group that specializes in depression
i think that is about it

keep up that long fight. There is an end,I know I'm not there yet. I knew a friend who has depression,she's very encouraging keeping me going. Find someone in your life or maybe something to look forward to, until the raging waters of a hurricane abate.
Keep on going
Don't stop for nothing.
