Specializes in Internal Medicine

I'm sorry: you feel this bad. Depression is a disease and you will need medical help to overcome it. At your age a Pediatrician or a Family doc would be a good start. If your mood gets really bad or you having thoughts of hurting yourself talk to your parents, friends or just go to an ER
