How do I get over the fear of telling my Dad that i think I suffer from Depression?

My grandmother has had it since she was a girl, and from what she has told me about how she feels sometimes, I think I may possibly have it as well. But I am to terrified to tell anyone in my family.

I dont know why, but I know I should go to a doctor, but I am to afraid to do that.

Whenever I think Im ready to tell someone, something happens and i just keep it to myself

Well, let me tell you from experience. When I was younger, I held my anger and depression inside--I didn't want anyone to know how I was feeling myself. But, one day, I just came crashing down and broke down in front of my mom. We both agreed that I needed help--and years later after therapy, it did help me. I think you should tell your father-- as a dad he loves you and will be there for you, so never be afraid to talk to him about getting help.
