so_punk_rock, I am really sorry you are feeling so isolated and separated right now. This is something I too struggle with when I am in my severe depression phases (I'm bipolar). I see that you are 17, so are you still in High School? Can you possibly reach out to a counselor or a teacher you trust? Sometimes just having another person who can listen will greatly reduce your feelings of stress and being overwhelmed. I wish your family were more understanding. It seems to be a common trait of the mentally ill that our families are non-understanding or just not interested in understanding our mental struggles.

I wish you luck in finding some relief from your pain. I know its not the same, but you can always talk to me on here, either in the forums, or in a pm.
