Recommendation : Unfortunately there are not the way to make a diagnosis of depression on line. If you older than 12 you may talk to your pediatrician alone and discuss your concern, and give him permission to discuss this with parents, if you afraid to talk with them by yourself. Being up and down at teenager age are normal. But better to discuss this concern earlier than late.
