So I’ve been depressed probably the majority of my teenage life. Maybe from 7th grade to now (12th grade). But wasn’t diagnosed till about a 4 months ago. 

I don’t really know what could be causing it other then gender dysphoria and PTSD making life really hard and feeling sad because of that. 

I have tried EVERYTHING to get better. This includes eating healthy, excerzise, going out doing stuff, talking with friends, doing things to make my gender dysphoria better even tho my parents don’t let me, having a routine, been going to therapy for maybe a year, and so much more. I do all these quite a bit even tho they are extremely hard. 

The only thing I haven’t tried is meds because I can’t take those for medical reasons. What do I do?
