DEPRESSION: See your md and he will refer you to mental health clinic. Or go to cook county hospital or board of health for free clinic counseling. Hope this helps!

Free clinics: There are a number of free clinics in the chicago area you could go to. Also, there are great mental health services available through the university of illinois -chicago, including ones geared just toward adolescents. If you are in crisis, go to your nearest er. Finally, in illinois, poor kids can get an in-home assessment through the sass program - just call the sass hotline at 1-800-345-9049!
