[|AI|]  Hi, I went through your query and can understand the distress you might be facing. Difficult life situations tend to make our life very stressful and makes it tough for us to cope. The symptoms that you have mentioned are suggestive of depressive disorder. You should also talk to your parents regarding your condition. You should seek treatment immediately, more so since you are having suicidal thoughts too. The medications for depression are prescription medicines, and you should consult a local psychiatrist for treatment. Had I been your treating psychiatrist, I would have started you on one of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors like Escitalopram. The medicines usually take time to show its effect, so you will have to be patient about the response. In addition to medications, you can also consider treatment with psychotherapy like cognitive behavior therapy where frequent (once to twice-weekly) sessions are needed and focus is on changing the thinking patter, teaching relaxation. Hope this information was helpful. Wishing you a speedy recovery.  Treatment with
