Yes sweetie you need to tell them both everything so that they can help you before you end up killing your self or something. Just remember no matter how hard life gets or how bad it seems that there is someone out there worse off then you and Jesus loves you and he will help you if you only pray and ask him to.Please get the help that you need sweetie, i wish you the very best and you will be in my prayers, God bless you child hold on

You're not crazy, but you definitely have many issues you need to learn to emotionally cope with, skills which you appear to be lacking. This isn't your fault, and by no means should you blame yourself.
You should certainly tell your doctor and your parents asap. This is an addiction that can seriously get out of hand fast and can be life threatening. It's called "cutting."
No matter how much guilt you carry, not matter how rotten you think your life is, no matter how many times you tell yourself you deserve all the crap you've been dealt.....you don't deserve any of it, you deserve so much more. Believe me, you are not to blame for how you feel...you feel what you feel and there's a reason you feel this way, you just don't know what it is. You need an outlet to express your feelings and right now you're chosing to cut yourself. Get professional help...you'll be better off. See your counselor at school - they may be able to help you get the help you need.

Your just a kid with two much time on your hands in a bad situation. Dont' worry about it too much but you need to make some serious changes QUICK. Get a job and stay busy then when your old enough join the Military and get far far away from your current surroundings. Quit being stupid with all theese things and grow up. And regarding this depresion...its a load of HOGWASH your not depresed your just bored

Well, since you know what's wrong with yourself, you should be able to fix it. You sound mature enough to be able to admit that you have a problem, so solve it yourself. Paying a guy who has a certificate on his wall claiming he can help won't make any difference. It's surprising to see that there's poverty in the world. Depression runs in my family, but i have always found ways to deal with it. What i do is grab my problems by the throat and tell them to give up because I'm in control of my life, not because my C's G's A's and T's are arranged differently from other people's.

You need to tell your parents what you have been doing. It is not a big deal to see a psychologist. It is just some one who you can talk to and they can't tell any one what you say.
honestly most of the time they really don't talk much. They mostly just listen. and every once in a while they might make a suggestion on how to handle a situation.
I don't think you are crazy I do think that you have had a lot to deal with in your life.
Just remember no one can make you do any thing they can take you to psychologist but they can't make you talk to him/ her. You have to decide you need help and be perfectly honest.
take it from me years of experience. I finally started to help and you know it makes a whole lot of difference.

i definetly think you need to seek further help. It is not normal or right for you to hurt yourself if you can't find another way to express yourself then hurting yourself then you do need help I do suggest you tell your folks right away. As a mother I would tell you that I would get you the best help possible I would never want to see my girls hurt themselves, You could have killed yourself taking pills. What is wrong with you. I had the same history you did and I am okay now I didn't do anything to hurt myself and now I am 24 with two beautiful girls who I owe my life to. I can't wait to see them grow up and get married and have kids don't take that from your mom trust me tell them get help and be happy. You will understand when you have kids that a mother will do anything to help there children at no measure.

Your not crazy. My daughter did the cutting thing too. You need to express your feelings in a more productive way. A diary worked for my daughter. And yes you should be talking to a psychiatrist to help with your depression and your self destructive ways. Remember things always get better you just have to be around to experience it.

Sounds like you want to be "center stage"... Manipulative is much different than crazy. :o)
I think it's time to grow up, be responsible and deal with situations at hand...not have a pity party for yourself and attempt to make everyone stop and watch you "center stage" yourself.
Of course you're depressed living with that life goal....
You're 16 years old, no longer 2....
Your sister didn't "kill" her baby... she terminated a pregnancy and it was her choice. Let her live with it since apparently she feels as though in her situation she can. Get you nose back into your own business because it sounds to me as if it's your life that you need to help yourself with.
