Is it me?

[Lucydog]

Am I depressed or just causing trouble for everyone else? My parents upset me now I cant sleep thinking about it all the time. A work colleague does not like the boss so I told the boss.

You seem to be skipping around on subject matter here. Are you having anxiety symptoms? Maybe you can't sleep because you are anxious or your thoughts about what your parents said are circling around and around which may be some OCD. Then you say you tattled on a colleagues' comment about the boss. Is that making you uncomfortable or feeling guilty? Your colleague probably trusted you to keep his or her comment in confidence. Why would you tell the boss something like that? Is that how you would like to be treated?

You seem to need some counseling here and you also need to bring these combined issues up at a checkup with your GP and see what this Dr. thinks. You may need to be treated for anxiety and/or depression. I mention both because they go together even if you can't see the symptoms right now. Whether you have either problem you can't blame them for your running to the boss with a confidence unless there's more to the story than you wrote here. That's why I recommend counseling no matter what diagnosis you do or don't have.
