i am 15 and the past 3 weeks have been really hard for me. Everyday is just annoying and i hate it and my family does not make it any better. My mom and my brother make my life living hell and they are just very mean. This usually results in me crying in my room everyday. The arugyments i get into them cause me so much stress and emotial stress. My dad contols every aspectof my life to when i should be eating and watching tv. I want to get away from them. At this point i just stay in my room and don’t come out other than eating or my daily jog. I dont know if this is just quaratnine effects but I feel so useless right now. I feel unmotivated and stupid and dumb. I have AP tests in 10 days, and i have spent the whole year working my butt off and now for the final stretch i cant do anything. I feel like a failure and I have been trying to loose wieght and I did , i lost 5 pounds and yesterday, I did not eat anything unusual or heavy (i ate what i have been eating) and suddenly i gained 5 pounds overnight. Are these depression symtons I DONT Know. I feel so frustrated because I cannot do the most simple things. My trash can has been fileld for the past 3 weeks. There are clothes every where and i cant pick them up. I am so sick of this family ( I am not just talking like bc quaratine, they make my life horrible) and I am counting the days till i graduate and i can get out of this house. Better yet, when I get my lisence so I dont have to be w them. I feel like a complete and utter failure and I just want everything to stop hurting. I feel so stupid and dumb. Even in school, i can only get B while everyone around me gets A’s. And the ACT, I am so dumb i am scared that I will not get a high score than 28 and i willnot get into any college. Is this depression or I am just overreacting. please help me.
I am sorry i ranted so much

You are not dumb; you are in a very difficult situation. I wish it was possible to have an emergency family meeting in your home, rules put into place so that people get along and there peace and quiet in the house for everyone’s benefit.
Do your best to make your situation better: organize your room, so it is orderly. Keep a daily routine that includes adequate studying for your AP tests, including continuing your daily jog (maybe increase it to two jogs per day, so to further lower your distress).
Minimize your interactions with your family members so to minimize conflicts and arguments. And do post again.
* Regarding gaining five pounds for no apparent reason: it may be water, having had salty food and retained water, not having gone to the bathroom.
One more thing, check out Head space. com, a website with lots of guided meditations and mindful exercises available for lower stress level and better sleep.
