Me is drowning

Puberty is very confusing to me. Its weird how it makes me suppose like its only happening to me, and not anyone else. It also occasionally makes me think about akward things. Sometimes, it makes me believe I'm not straight, yet I know I'm 100% straight, and I forever want to be straight. Is this all normal? I hate puberty ._.''

My bf most likely suffers from depression. He has acknowledged it and his parents has told me that he was on medication a long time ago but stop taking them because his psychiatrist fell asleep during a session and he has hated them ever since. He even attempted suicide though he doesn't really want to die but he thinks it was to get his parent's attention.

He also says its difficult to open up to someone and seek help but at the same time knows that not seeking help is not doing him any good, nor our relationship. I don't know how much longer I can take of his mood swings, of having to tip toe on eggshells not knowing what kind of mood to expect. It would just be nice to come home and see a happy smiling face instead of someone who just seems to loathe himself, the world and everybody and everything in it (except his dogs) and mope/sulk all the time.

I'm trying to understand how it is a person who knows he needs help can at the same time refuse to get it. Why is it so hard

For myself I count

A head on collision - 65 mph on both sides - There were a total of 3 people involved in that accident - 2 killed - and I walked away with minor injuries

Attacked by 3 guys strangled to until I was almost unconsious and had a bottle smashed over my head - Believe it or not the "fight" broke up because of the bottle smashed over my head - For some reason this got the guy on top of me off - He attacked the guy who hit me with the bottle - It was enough though

Apendix burst and I was unaware for a while - Poison ran through me as I began to halucinate - interesting - I was very lucky another 12 hr or whatever I would have either died on my couch or been beyond help


3 Times I have come very close to death -

It has made an impact on me but I am not sure how or in what way

Do you have any stories of similar nature and if so how did this impact you and your life ?
