[|Human|] I am a teenager and i have been feeling kind of depressed for a while, so i took some online tests and they said i have a high chance of having dysthymia. I read some articles about it and it seems to describe almost exactly how i feel. All of the stuff online says i should be getting help, but i really dont think its that big of a deal. Im not suicidal or anything, and i really dont want to make my family pay for any medicine or therapy. Its not like its totally ruining my life, im just feeling kinda down. Should i go to my school guidence counselor, or just kinda see how things play out? Our health class is doing depression screening in about a month, so if anything is really wrong they will find out and tell me what to do i guess. I just dont know if this is serious enough to make a big deal out of it. I know my parents would either think im making a big deal out of nothing or they would overreact and get super upset.Any advice?
[|AI|]  Hi, You are a teenager, and the hormonal changes you are normally experiencing (involuntary) do play a role in your mood changes. It is perfectly normal to get those feelings: sometimes hopeful, some others hopeless. However, keep in mind that this is a transitory period due to hormonal changes. You should cheer up and enjoy your life. You have no reason to get into depression, although you might be feeling down. Go out and walk or run or swim; in other words, do some physical activity that could help you "explode" in order to get out all the negative impulses inside you. Being physically active, socialized and following a healthy diet will help you overcome your teenage mood changes:)Hope it helped!
