I need help...?

Question

I want to tell my mom but im pretty sure she will just get really really really mad at me. Theres not really anything my friends can do anymore and my dad just said well then dont cut. I really dont want to be this way. What should i do?

Answer 1

It sounds like you are depressed, which is actually a disease. Have your doctor check you out...he/she may be able to prescribe something that will help. You don't need to feel this way

Answer 2

You sound clinically depressed. It is not your fault and you cannot talk yourself out of it. It is caused by many factors so start with a good physical. If no physical reasons are found for your condition, you may want to see a therapist and/or try medication.
Tell you mom and dad how long you have had these feelings.

I have survived this condition. There is hope. I am not on medication or seeing a therapist now. I have good and bad days which are normal for everyone. I am living proof that you can heal depression.
Good luck to you.

Answer 3

Wish you had said your age. I really think you should talk to mom, but if you absolutely can't is there a counselor at school or a favorite teacher you could talk to? You absolutely need to talk to someone. If you are old enough, maybe you can go to your doctor on your own. A friends' mother might be a choice.

Answer 4

call your mom and seek counseling- it sounds hard, but I am sure that your mom would rather have you alive and happy then then sad and hurting yourself- she wont get mad- you should just gather the courage- if you really think she will get mad, then talk to your school counselor. I am sorry your feeling this way but life will get better eventually- chin up. if you don't have the courage then please view my 360 page and send me a message with your contact information, and I will talk to your mom- as long as you get the help that is needed- life is never that bad- trust me.

Answer 5

Being a mother of a 15 year old daughter, I would definitely want my daughter to tell me if she was having problems. I would try my best to help her. My daughter recently shared with me that she was hearing voices and seeing things that aren't there. I immediately sat down and talked to her and then promptly took her to a doctor who referred her to a psychiatrist. I am so glad she told me so I could help. I think your mom would be glad to help you too. I would never get mad at my daughter, so don't sell your mom short until you talk to her. It is evident you need help and don't be afraid to get some.

Answer 6

I feel deeply for you. You have the classic symptoms of clinical depression. It won't go away on it's own. You need to seek help at your local mental health clinic. Their fees are on a sliding scale. That means that you will pay very little, or maybe nothing, if you don't work. Please get help right away. You've wasted too much of your young life in the dark.

Answer 7

Try talking to one of your teachers or a guidance counsellor. Explain your feelings and that you are feeling kind of bummed out at present regarding school, they may have some resources that they could refer you to. Or you might want to consider talking with your doctor and inform him of how awful your feeling and that your drained so can't get up properly for school in morning. He might either refer you for some counselling or maybe try to put you on some form of medication that may help you. Regardless of who you talk to please try and sit down with your parents and ask them to keep an open mind while you explain to them what is happening and how your feeling. My fiances' daughter went through a lot of the same feelings that your currently experiencing at present and ended up failing a couple of required classes and had to go to summer school. There she continued to have problems completing her studies and now has to do an addition semester at school. This sounds very serious so please try and explain to your parents in a mature fashion and ask them to help you seek out help also. Best of luck to you and I hope that your able to get back on track real shortly.

Answer 8

You might be suffering from depression. You might want to seek medical help or counsling. Many people suffer from depression so your not alone. Maybe doing something positive for the community or volunteering to help animals might get you motivated to do more.
Good Luck

Answer 9

Seek professional assistance, immediately.
And, I'm not saying this to be mean, or funny, or even sarcastic.. You need help and that's the only way to get it.
