Wow, I never expected to get any more responses to this thread. I posted that two years ago, but am thankful that 15LRC decided to resurrect it. It was interesting to look back and see how bad my depression was at that time. Reading this is bringing up a lot emotion, which is good.
A lot of things have happened in the past two years. One of those things is my willingness to share my age. I used to not care if y'all knew that I was a teenager, but now I want to hide that fact. I feel very self conscious about my age. I am afraid of being treated differently when it comes to talking about mental things. I am not naive when it comes to my mental health or others. My therapist told me that I have a achieved a level of self-awareness that many adults don't have.
Great, now I sound egotistical and I apologize for that. I am not trying to be or am asking for acceptance. I am however a very defensive person, so I can come off wrong.
Thanks y'all for the feedback and support.
