16 years old, sick, easily confused and depressed--help please?

I'm a 16 years old who's depressed and often anxious. I'm sick, not sure with what yet but I do know it's something to do with my gallbladder, of which I'll probably be getting removed. But that's not the main point. My main concern is with how confused I've been getting lately. I'm misspelling passwords for the first time ever, I'm forgetting where I put things, or what happened what day. It's not very severe or upfront, but it still concerns me. Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but I wonder if it's just the stress, depression, anxiety, and maybe being on the computer or watching TV too much. I'm probably also ADD. It could also be my medicines(an antibiotic and a birth control) or maybe even my poor diet/lack of sleep? But then...why would it only be effecting me now? Please help?

so the only meds you take are an antibiotic and birth control? You should see your doctor about this, these are not symptoms to be taking lightly, and definitely not "normal" in a 16 yr. old.

So your best bet would be to go check in with your dr. and see what he says. He may want to do some bloodwork and other tests to find out the crux of the problem.

I wouldn't put this off much longer.
