Depression, please give me advice?

I understand exactly what your going through, I was just like you when I was 12 and 13. I cried everyday and didn't understand. I kept wondering if anything was real. I didn't understand how the person n the mirror could be me. I don't know how I did it, but somehow I pulled myself out of the hole, and you can to. Talking to people helps, interacting with others is a key component to feeling better. Just remember this, when bad things happen just think to yourself "It could always be worse." That thought helped me.
