What really helped me was getting a hobby and creating a personal identity -- Posted by amber10lynne at 5:36 pm on July 6, 2009 They can help. i am on them currently and they help a lot for me. but pills alone wont help. i think you should go and talk to someone. when you are depressed you just have a bad outlook on everything. thinking things will never get better and not doing anything to try and make them better. the pills can help bring you up a little and you can realize that things will get better sometime. talk to an adult, they can help a lot. good luck -- Posted by Fireiceair at 8:20 pm on July 11, 2009 I don't think you should take pills before talking to a doctor. Talk to someone, doctor, family, friend, etc.
