You want to see a school counseler first, and then you might want to see a doctor.
I don't want to sound abrupt, but while antidpressants may be of help, you first need to see a counseller to talk about the pro's and con's and your alternatives. As we all know there may be other factors contributing to your depression. Vitamin Deficiancies ( esp if you are a vegitarian) can lead to depression.
In the case that you a are actively suicidal then go to an emergency room.
Most of us know here that antidepressants would be a terrible mistake if there was a less drastic solution available.
