I don't know what to do?

Question

Since I was in the fourth grade I would say I was a bit morbid. I wrote about dark things like death and dieing. It's slowly escalated to very violent stories and writing and a bit more depressive writing. Recently (last 3 years) I've had 3 family members die. My parents have fought infront of me (verbally) and spoke of divorce. I've become more sad lately and had stopped eating for a few days. I feel almost scared I would say to talk to people I know. I've never told my family how I feel or how I've truly gotten some of my scars. I feel weak telling people what happened and horrified of what they will say. I would just like advice I suppose or maybe why it's happening.

A lot of people struggle with depression, trauma and anxiety. Sometimes it's psychological but a lot of times it can be medical. The thyroid and other such organs can produce hormones which can cause these feelings. The best thing to do is to tell your parents that you are worried that there is something wrong with you and you would like to see a doctor, if the doctor rules out medical causes he might suggest therapy. Being a teenager is hard and can make a persons emotions spike but it can also spark certain changes medically in your body that you didn't have to worry about before puberty. These emotions are only embarrassing because you don't understand them and you don't want to be different. It is better to address an issue with your family and have them help you find a solution than to go on struggling by yourself. They won't tell anyone anything you don't want them to as long as you let them know you would prefer they didn't. Be brave I know it's hard trust me I've been there. Your family loves you and wants you to be happy but they are not mind readers. ask for help and things will get better.
