How can I cheer myself up when I'm a depressed 13 year old?

Sorry to hear the bad news & I’m going to give you some advice that hopefully will help you. When things are so bleak & you feel you are powerless to stop these horrific things that keep happening the best thing you can do is comfort your family speak with your mom & dad & truly bond together as a family to create a union that right now seems broken. The love & relationship you have with family is strong & when you all work together to keep on fighting to make things better . You have a unbeatable force called hope & it inspires great things. I guarantee your sadness will turn into a strong will to fight for your families well being & when you help other you help yourself. I think you will make it & I hope you can be strong for your family & yourself . Next time you speak with your parents let them know you love them & you are there for them . I’m sure they feel just like you & they need to hear the same . Keep fighting kiddo . I can’t tell you things will be better but I can tell you, you give it a better chance by keeping your family a whole. Feel free to msg me =)

I’m sorry to here that. if I were you I would spend a lot of time with your family or just enjoy yourself

I feel so sorri for you to be honest I think the main thing is tostop feeling sorri for yourself I know it may sound mean, but maybe you should forget all the bad things going on go out with your mates and have a laugh try to put all negative thoughts away.Stop focusing on all the bad things try to stay positive and be happy, and know people are there to support you…x

You should try meditation, just try to clear your head of all negative/depressing thoughts and just remember, it could be worse. Consider yourself fortunate. Some people don’t even have a house. Just meditate and try to bring your family closer. And when/if your mom passes away, just honor her memory. But other than that, meditate, hang out with you friends, and find a boyfriend/girlfriend who loves you. My boyfriend has helped me through so much since I got depressed a few years ago, and I still don’t regret finding him. Also, just do whatever you feel is right and try to bond with you family, even though it’ll hurt when they break apart. I wish you, your mom, and you dad well.

. you could get a part time job to help out I guess
