I'm so sorry Forever&Always. my dad told me the same thing when he learned of my depression, saying he had it when he was little and i had to get over it, he didn't take me seriously until i developed an anxiety disorder. I also know how hard it is to not SI. If you ever need anyone to vent to i am here to listen and i apologize that there is not much more i can do then listen and try to help. I wish you the best of luck and you do have a future, it may not be the one your parents planned for you or the one your expecting, but you still have one.
