Depressed and tired
17 year old female
I was depressed, tired and felt like I had lost everything. I lost 2 of my best friends, my pop and a very close family friend, all within 18 months of each other. I was failing at school because I couldn't concentrate and when asked what was wrong I wouldn't say anything because I didn't feel like I trusted anybody enough. I was rapidly going downhill and managed to work up the courage to contact the Kids Helpline for web counselling. Initially, I didn't reveal a lot but soon felt I could trust my counsellor enough to tell him what was happening and how I felt about it. I am now in regular contact with him and feel happier each day.
