Hello, I am 17 years old male. I think I am in depression as I feel lost. I think I don’t fit in. I don’t have any urge to do things. I don’t how to describe my situation. I can’t share my problems with my family because I am scared they will take me to the doctor. I am looking for other ways instead of medicine. Can anyone share some ways of overcoming depression without medication?
