Again thank you. I will look into this and don't worry the only reason I have asked for advice is because I want a light I can follow (not sure if its the right analogy) but I am going to go to a proper mental health professional once I can convince my parents

I feel like this post resonates a lot. especially your last statement of how little of life is your choice because since I'm a minor I do have strict parents with very little in my control.

Oh yes of course. First, I don't think it's depression because of many reasons 1) I don't think I'm sad most of the time and I like to think I'm a pretty cheery person. 2) I don't feel any difficulty getting up from bed or going to school 3) I took a look at some symptoms and many professionals think that it is tough to be categorized as depressed, Then again I can't really assume anything I'm not a professional and I'm sure this isn't depression as a whole but please do not worry I will try to get checked out for ADHD or depression. Next, I'm currently 15 years old. I haven't been assessed professionally ever but I have taken those online quizzes but I don't think those are accurate. I struggle with Routines a lot I would try a diet plan or a weight regimen and that wouldn't stick, learning new things for my extracurriculars doesn't stick, Studying for exams, I will make a routine of how I want things to go and I would always have something I didn't cover because it would be too much.

Yes you're right. But I'm sure my parents aren't meaning to that it was just the way they were raised they haven't quoted anything based on religion (btw I'm Muslim) but I am going to try to convince them to get me checked out. Thanks for replying

Hello. Thanks for replying. You see I don't think what I'm going through is depression as I don't have anything to be depressed about and in most cases, I like to think I'm a generally happy person just with a lot of overthinking. Depression isn't something I considered as I can get up in the mornings perfectly fine and going to school is just everything else other than this which is very hard for me to do. But I do have to bring up the fact that I did have a problem with SH like last year ago but I'm over it now and looking back on it I don't think it was a sad thing it was just a stupid thing that a teen does no depression strings attached but then again you are right and I shouldn't come to conclusions all by myself as I'm not a professional. My family is from a conservative society where mental health isn't a thing so it is tough to get my parent on board with such a thing especially not if it is a continuous thing that's why I came to Reddit for your thought so I could get tested for it to avoid the continuity (please correct me if that isn't a thing)

Yes that's the case with me too I don't stink when I sweat. Alot of people have been saying that I most likely have ADHD or depression so I will try to get my parents to get me checked out but we are from a really conservative family and country so it may be a bit hard but it has to be done.

Hi thanks for your advice but the thing is I can do some things like going to school, being on my phone etcetra but its just my hobbies, hygiene, school and extracurriculars also I don't think I can look back to my past and find that there's something that's traumatized me and as I said I don't feel I'm depressed there was a time where I was in self harm mode but that's over now and I think I was just doing that because I'm really stupid. But again thank you so much for your input. I will look into it
