Hello,
I am 17 years old and over the past 6 months I haven't felt like myself. I have become distant with my family, I have fallen out with my classmates I feel completely alone. I don't feel the need to go to my GP because I don't want to be called "over dramatic" for doing so. I feel so down all the time, when I get a minute to myself I just feel like crying.
What's wrong with me? Why have I changed so much?! I don't like this person I've become and nobody around me likes her either. Please help me someone, give me some kind of advice.

I suspect it is definitely time to see a GP. Being 17 brings many challenges for everyone but your situation seems much more than that. I don’t very much your GP would consider you “over dramatic “. Other people’s opinions are not worthy of consideration at this time. Praying you get the help you need. Rick
I agree. Your GP can prescribe an antidepressant to see if that helps. Could just be brain chemistry and there is no underlying psychological reason for your depression.
How is your diet and exercise?
