Suggest Remedy For Severe Depression

Hello, I need some advice....but it's hard for me to go to a doctor on my own time because of my parents. I am 18 years old, born 12/4/91, but my parents are...well controlling and difficult. I don't want them to know that I'm seeking help for severe depression .... I don't know what to do. It's like bipolar, with highs and lows, but my friend was telling me about a condition of the fear of rejection, and it does explain a lot for me. I...just don't know for sure...can you help me?

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I can help you for sure. Your parents are well controlling and difficult, you complain. Please introspect, Are you depressed or disappointed? Both are different and you should understand the difference. Disappointment also manifests many symptoms of depression for a short period of time, say, for a fortnight. You are diagnosing self. That is a wrong practice and may become an obsession. You should consult a psychologist. Or you may post a detailed query here with every detail you can provide us about your problems. We will help you. Don't worry.
