Derek's Guide to Depression

What happens when you go to see a doctor About Depression?

Hi there,

Normally they just talk to you, listen to what you are saying and decide on a plan of action which might be anti-depressants, councilling or advice. Because your under 16 they are not legally allowed to prescribe you a drug without your parents permission and taking anti-depressants is a big step so your parents should be involved. Though it was a few years ago i remember being a teenager and it sucks a bit, its a time when you are deciding your friendship groups, fashion, boyfriends, education – there is a lot going on and its quite normal to feel down and maybe even self harm a bit. It might be better for you to get some decent advice and talk about what’s bothering you. Nobody will judge you but you need to confide in someone. Life is short and you need to make the most of it and get happy, so make it happen today, maybe ask mum or dad to chat or an older aunt or friend who you can open up to. They can help you organise a doctors visit and support you.
Depression isn’t easy but try to remember all the great things about life too.
Good luck

”Keep America American”: Great Depression, government intervention, and conservative response in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, 1920s–1940. $49.99 This study of one rural county in western Pennsylvania during the Great Depression highlights people’s response to government recovery programs. Rural folks in Somerset County experienced the depression before the crash in 1929, and throughout the 1920s, miners and farmers in the area found ways to cope with rising unemployment and declining farm prices. Miners used the strike to fight for better conditions; farmers organized into cooperatives to secure the best prices for their products. Each promulgated a set of values that reflected their vision of America. The 1920s was only a prelude to the economic downturn in the 1930s, when rural folks had to adapt to changes in the way that the government approached the economy. Many residents in Somerset County favored the approaches of Herbert Hoover, who honored their cherished values of thrift, self-help, and minimal government. For similar reasons, they also supported Republican Governor Gifford Pinchot, until he began to implement new taxes and to consolidate power at the state level. To many conservatives and localists, Pinchot resembled Franklin Roosevelt, who entered office promising federal assistance to the needy.;When Roosevelt took office, he implemented programs that often contradicted their cherished values. He passed costly federal direct and work relief programs that ran counter to their belief in private charity, self-help, and local control. His and Governor George Earle’s “new deals” also included farm policy that set limits on production and forced processors to pay a tax and consumers to pay more for food. County residents generally favored the laissez faire, supply and demand model for the economy. Even more troubling to the county’s localists and conservatives was the labor legislation that Roosevelt and Earle approved. The National Labor Relations Act, passed in 1935, and Pennsylvania’s Labor Relations Act, passed two years later, forced companies to recognize unions, and residents believed that
