How should I tell my mother I'm depressed? ?!


Question: How should I tell my mother I'm depressed.? .?
I think I'm clinically depressed. I've taken tests on the internet and got very high scores. I know they don't prove anything, but I'd feel better talking to someone (like a counsellor) about it. How should I ask my parents to see someone.? I'd feel really embarrassed. They'd just want me to talk to them, and I wouldn't feel comfortable doing that. Please help.Health Question & Answer

I think the 1st step to accepting depression is seeking help. No one deserves to deal w/depression or let it control your life. Tell your parents that it's kind of hard for you to say, but you think that maybe you should talk to someone regarding depression. It will be the 1st step to a whole new you =)Health Question & Answer
