Thread: Do you think this is depression?

I'm going through a lot of hard things right now, and I've felt unbelievably sad on and off ever since I can remember. My parents are getting a divorce so we're trying to sell our house, and my mom's an alcoholic and just gets wasted in front of me every night, and I have very few friends and none that I can talk to about this.

I feel like I'm ALWAYS exhausted, which I do work and go to school so it is tiring, but most of the kids I know do that and they don't have half the trouble with it that I do. I seriously just want to sleep all day.

And I mean I'm not sad 24 hours a day, sometimes if I'm out with a friend I can laugh and stuff, but I would say I'm really upset about 85-90% of the day. Last winter I LOVED snowboarding and used to go atleast once a weekend, and I literally had NO desire this winter. I just wanted to sleep.

I think about killing myself atleast once a day, I never actually would because it would CRUSH my mom, but I just don't know what to do anymore...
I've also been smoking weed 4-5 times a week for a while now with my friend, which I know is only worsening this but I don't KNOW what to do anymore. Weed is seriously the only thing that makes me happy anymore, and I need something.

i think this is stress and depression together.
