Hello there EndeavourMorse

Welcome to our Community.

I'm truly sorry to read of the sad loss of your dear Dad and brother, this is very hard for someone so young to cope with. I take it you are over 16yrs now but nevertheless, you are clearly worried by the pattern of depression you are associating with your losses. Anniversaries always make it difficult to cope but I think I'm right in saying you're not coping well anyway.

Please do go along and have a chat with your doctor about your depression and that of your brother and Father, it really is important that you get professional help now, you don't need to suffer alone EM, we're here for you, always, anytime, okay? And there are so many new treatments for depression these days, which will help you.

We also have another Forum here on Health Unlocked for issues such as depression and you might want to pop in there too, here is the link:

healthunlocked.com/above-be... and also 'Young Adults Stress Support' here:

healthunlocked.com/youngadu...

Please do let me know how you get on.

Take care

Chloe

Thank you for your kind message I have been to the doctors and he knows about the depression and the two losses iam on anti depressants i went back to the doctor last year to get help and he referred me to the Mental health team but the doctor from the mental health team wasn't at all helpful or sympathetic about the loss of my brother and my dad and said there was nothing they could do as far as he was concerned i wasn't bad enough even though i have dark thoughts.

I am tired of going back and forth to the doctors because it is always the same.

Thank you again for you message

Endeavour
