Hi, my name is Hanna, I am 12 years old. I'm pretty sure I've had depression for a while now but I don't know how to tell my parents, any ideas?

Hi Hanna_, welcome to the forums. We have a whole section on this here on our Youth Beyond Blue website:

Tips on talking to an adult

Hi Hanna,

Welcome to the community here at Beyond Blue. I think you are the youngest person I have encountered on this site.

Hopefully you have looked up the information on the Youth Beyond Blue website and that you can connect with people more your own age. You are welcome to keep posting here as well.

After all a lot of the people posting here are parents and may have some suggestions as to how they would feel if their children talked to them about depression.

Hope you are able to talk with your parents.

Cheers for now from Mrs. Dools
