Is this depression? Should I get it checked out?

[Sarcasticdust850]

I asked this before but I only got 1 answer and I'm looking for more :|

It started when I was watching my all time favourite tv show and I was thinking about how I wanted to meet them so badly. It's filmed in England and I'm in Scotland and I was thinking about how I'd love to go down there and be able to enter the set and I'd be friends with the cast. After thinking about this I suddenly went to think about how I wish I was already in uni (I'm nearly 15) and how I wish I was around 19-22 and how I could go to uni in London and be free and hopefully meet the cast. I kept thinking about this and then it went on to "why can't my family live in London?" and after about 5 minutes of thinking I came to "I wish I was born in an english family not a chinese one, I wish I could at least BE english or scottish." Then I started thinking about how my family are unfair and how I wished I could have another family and how I was born in the wrong family. I then started crying for 10 minutes. I have not eaten all day and I still cannot eat and I normally eat tonnes! I feel like I need to talk to my parents about it but I don't know how, I don't want to talk to my parents about it but I feel like I need to talk to someone about it. I don't even have the urge to tell close friends. What's happening? I can't stand it! I start shaking and I feel like I'm going to burst out crying ever 5 minutes. How did I get here from wanting to meet actors and actresses? I've had this before earlier on in the year starting off with singers and I felt like committing suicide in the end (not this time). Please help me, what's going on with me?? Everytime I think about wanting to meet them or reading their twitter page I'll go straight to the shaking stage and I'll nearly burst out in tears without even havign to spend more than 2 minutes thinking..

I don't usually answer questions but I happen to know many things and I can pinpoint your problem. You're sudden burst in sadness is because you have deep seeded negative emotions. You feel like your family is not how you would like it to be, and that you are stuck in worse conditions than you would like to be in. Your brain is reinforcing these thoughts every time you cry. The more you cry the easier it becomes to cry. Yes, this is depression, you need to find professional help. I think your parents may not be the best option. Instead go to your school counsellor or a local GP and ask them for an appointment.

PS. I'm a 20 year old guy who has suffered from clinical depression for years.

I dont know exactly what you mean by your paragraph but id say a clear indicator of depression is feelings of hopelessness, like you will never have what makes you happy
If youre one of those people who takes what other people say and uses it without much resistance id say a psychologist might help, however if you have a personality in which you dont like being told how to fix your problems then it may do more harm then good

It is normal for teenagers to question life like this and not like their parents, families etc... You are in the stage of separating and becoming independent of your family. You are trying to figure out who you are. It can be a scary and tumultuous time. What you need to do is to stop focusing on all of these celebrities who seem to have a better life than you. That's not always the case you know. You have to focus on you and try to find out what kind of person you are. What do you like to do besides watching TV? Find something you like and get off the couch and out there to do it. Even if you volunteer somewhere and help others that will make you feel so much better. Good Luck!

Yea that's depression, over a stupid topic, but it still is, and you should get help. your parents are'nt the best option to tell either, as theyll most likly tell you your acting stupid.
