Ever since 3rd grade ive had suicidal thoughts along with anxiety, id always feel down and empty. The anxiety somewhat went away but these thoughts and feelings plagued me to this day. They are getting worse and worse and I'm worried that one day, im going to end it all.

Im in high school now and its getting worse, i left all sports, my grades are starting to slip, and my friends are starting to leave me. Im tired of it all, tired of life, tired of myself. I know there is this whole Stigma about teens with depression arent actually depressed. "Youre to young to be feeling this" or "Youre 16, once you're an adult everything will be better" Honestly I dont see it getting better and ive had it since 3rd grade so about 7 years.

So all that said, should I get help? I haven't talked to anyone about this and im worried that Id just be put aside and wont be taken seriously.
