As someone who suffers from depression and anxiety. Therapy is a good thing. Like everyone said, if you think you need help, you probably do.
If you're not at school or don't know where you should start looking talk to your family doctor. They will be able to refer you to a trained professional.
Please do not see a doctor simply asking for medication. Medication will not fix the problem...it helps, but it is not always the best solution. Any qualified or reasonable doctor will tell you while on medication for depression or anxiety you should also be involved in some sort of talk therapy. If they don't suggest that to you, then find some one else quick because they are just pill pushers.
With a little help things will get better...it does take time and there is no miracle sure...even medication takes 6-8 weeks to kick in.
Take care,
Emily
