Hi, I'm 16. For a Year I experienced The worst Anxiety & Depression. To cut it short, this past month noticed my moods (more clearly than ever) change within an hour, From excited and enthused to Depressed & Suicidal and there is a boy I'm obsessed wih he's beautiful but will never ever have me and I feel worthless from everything and exhausted. Spoken to absolutely everyone ; Profesionals included. I'm suicidal, lost and stuck in an emotionally abusive home. No where to go and escape, Pressure from school is too much & I'm slowly fading. I need help, what could this be?

I love it when I come to a forum and someone has said basically all that needs to be said (Thanks MAS_Nurse :)).
I would add that at 16 I believe you are able to get help with your home situation which it seems TO ME would be a good first stop. You should talk to your GP, perhaps Citizens Advice, most likely your local community mental health team or social services about this, explain the problems at home and the toll that is having on mental health, and see if you can get your own place with benefits and support (Like a Support Worker - that can be done for you!) and then go from there.
