I have depression and no motivation. My mother says that I don't need to take antidepressants and I just need daily regime and nutrition. There was time when I had what she suggests but I was just feeling pissed off because it's restrictive. No to very little improvements. Do you think that She is right nevertheless or I should take medication?

You're probably self-diagnosed. Ask her to take you to a pedopsychiatrist so you can get diagnosed and he can finally tell you you're just going through puberty, even though you won't believe that because that's a specific trait of puberty (not believing what older and wiser people say)

I think you should try other things first. I tried exercising, yoga, changing my diet, keeping myself busy, trying to obtain new hobbies, maybe get a pet, weed etc. Before you go for antidepressants. Also, try to go into therapy while taking the meds.

Because you're a bit ignorant. You're not the first or last to assume something about someone you don't know. I'm sure he won't mind that too much.

Over the counter antidepressants are horrible and way too risky. They are basically the only type of drug that lists in the side effects that you may have worsening symptoms that you're taking the stuff to treat in the first place. That's like if a medicine for a head cold listed worsening congestion as a possible side effect!

So basically the only chance for me is to try to bust it through with LSD? I literally can't work, and that helped a couple of times, but then the one other time it damaged my mind. I guess it is just about what you think at the moment. I'll try being positive during the use so maybe this can help. Risky but can work (already did). I have nothing to lose, I literally can't do anything
