Dear lybrate-user, Please consult a psychiatrist who is also a doctor with MBBS degree. At your age, there may be other medical illnesses causing depression. She/he will be in a position to diagnose properly and treat you.

Loss of interest, decreased concentration and attention, feeling low and disturbed sleep or appetite are some of the signs of depression. Consult a psychiatrist who will assess you in detail. If you are feeling suicidal or hopeless, seek professional help immediately. Try some relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation and deep breathing. Indulge in hobbies. Spend time with people close to you.
