My suggestion is that you take help from a friend in seeking proffessional help. In the end it will be you going there but having someone you trust know this and can ask you about it and in general emotionally support you can be the extra push you need. But ofc that requires a friend you trust and can handle it... :/
Anyway.. it took me 6-8 years before I REALLY got proffesional help. Hope that won't happen to you...or already has. Hang in there..  |
It is really, really, really tough for me to get help. I'm not even sure if I'll ever get help, because if I do go through with it, I wouldn't get help .
Telling my friends, that will not happen, they don't understand it.

I also wish something would happen ,& I would die. Without me doing anything. That would be really nice.

However, if you tell them, they'll be overwhelmed that you could feel so bad and so alone and they will want to help.
Zinco is right depression can be treated and eventually when the depression becomes more awful than the fear of reaching out you will find the strength to ask. Until then you have our support. |
It really sucks, that they don't ask. I wish more people would be aware of depression,& also not be so judgmental. All of my friends are judgmental angling depression. Why are they so sad. Get over it. That's not a big deal.
They seem ok,& don't get sad much. There happy,& have fun
I still want to tell my teacher. But , I don't want to overwhelm him, or be a burden to him . But my depression is getting overwhelming,& I contemplated suicide. But he seems to be the only one who understands depression,& knows you just can't get over it. I don't get why he's the only info who understands.
