This is the kind of delusions I was going through when I was a teenager. When I was in high school and my guidance counselor thought I was depressed, my mother immediately told me he was ridiculous. I blamed myself for everything I was feeling and pretended that I didn't have a problem. That led to the next 20 years of psychiatric hospitals, drinking, severe depression, and a lot of emotional stress. Being 32 now, I wish I had addressed these issues in high school. I think we are all trying to save you from future pain, ignoring the problem doesn't mean it will go away.
