Answers:
You really need to speak with a professional to help you overcome what it is your not "going into" as you put it. You have a reason for your depression and it seems you even know what it is.
If there is pain in your life from something that happened to you or someone you love or a situation know first that bad things happen to good people! You are a special individual and no matter how bad it seems when you are depressed, there are times you feel ok.
Without even knowing anything about your situation it is hard to give solid advice. So saying that please speak with someone you trust, or if you can counseling.Health Question & Answer

Dealing with depression is difficult enough but to not be able to tell others is compounding your problem and your pain. Please tell someone. Your doctor or counsellor would be a good first step to seek help. Choose a close friend or family member to confide because these are the people that love you. You say you don't want them to worry but I guanantee you they would be more upset if you didn't seek their support because the people that care about us want to share our pain. Just telling someone will be a huge burden to unload and will help you to better handle your depression. Hang in there--tomorrow will be a better day.Health Question & Answer
