    if you have bounced back from depression and have been happy for a while, then you are strong enough to face this.
    Be positive, if you get down, say to yourself "Stop, I can be happy and I will be happy". It works for me, and Ive had it tough but we all do and we deal with it differently.
    Just talk to people, work out the problems and don't let it mess you up.
    best wishes, my friend

    Is there an adult you can speak to?
    Depression is a feeling that can esculate (sp?) but since you've come back from the brink before, you should be able to fight back again, but some things seem out of depth for you.
    Your sister should not be allowed to get away with what she's doing to you and your brother should NOT be allowed to do what he's doing to his girlfriend. It's a criminal offence where i'm from.
    Speak to someone who can help if you can.
    Good luck
