Hi there,

Over the past six months I have been really struggling with my mental health. Every time I have tried to talk to my mum about it she puts it down to either hormones and stress, saying I have nothing to be depressed about. I know I shouldn’t feel depressed, yet I’m really struggling, life feels so pointless, I want to cry all the time and I no longer enjoy any of my hobbies. It almost feels like this physical ache in my chest. I have no clue what I should do about it. Do I go to a doctor or will it just get better eventually? Some advice will be welcomed as I have no clue how to approach this.

Thank you
