Depression Forum - Been depressed

I'm 16, and for the past 2-3 years my dad has been mildly verbally abusive. I think I always have had some depression issues, but when I tried to go to my parents about it I was told to stop seeking attention.

This was all fine until about 2 months ago, because I could always talk to my best friend about it. Then, he got a girlfriend and I stopped existing to him. He won't talk to me, and even tried to get away from me when I tried to confront him about it. Ever since then, my dad has been 10x worse, and I have nobody to talk to about it.

Last week I began seriously thinking about running away. I want to, but then I would feel like everyone I still like would hate me. I don't know what to do anymore.

I'm home schooled (yes, I have [other] friends, etc...), so I don't have a school councilor that I can go talk to when I'm feeling depressed.

Bottom line, I can't go to my parents, can't go to my friends, and I don't have a councilor I could go to without my parents knowing. Any suggestions on what to do would be very appreciated.

Depression... I found a solution.

I am a young women and have had to go thru some tough times.. Was diagnosed with a vey rare disease and have to cope up with all the symptoms associated with it.. plus the side effects of medicine... life has seemed very difficult to get through with..
I found a course called the art of living and i have been doing the breathing practises I learnt from them... since then.. I have found that i feel so good... It is a wonderful course and it has helped millions of people with this problem.
I am sure you will find it helpful too
