Well it seems you are going through alot right now..life in general-a divorce can put you over the edge..I suffer from depression and OCD as well as anxiety–mine really got bad when my Mom up and left my Dad on a whim after almost 40 years of marridge..I was the pillar who kept everyone else standing..and was trying to keep my own life under controll-she was my sitter so we had to find a sitter over night..my daughters are close to her so I had to help them becuase they didn't understand..and take care of my Dad who almost went insane..the only thing you can do is try to overcome it..usually diet and excersize help boost your mood - research depression-study it and keep your chin up..I will pray for you..and if you need someone to talk to email me..I know what it is like to live this way..I am right there with you..how old are you??

Thinking too much.
Nobody can answer because for most nobody knows what causes it.

Technically, chemicals in your brain.
Your parents are divorced–that's a common "trigger" for anxiety or deperession. Not always, though. Since you're on medication, your parents obviously know that something is wrong. But trust me–don't leave it all up to your parents to figure it out. Decide which one you trust more and talk to them about the problem; say you are concerned and you'd like to know what options you have to make yourself feel better.
