There's also hotlines you can call--please do if you are feeling suicidal:

I'm glad you found your way to the psych central forums and hope you can find some of the support you need here. There are many here who are going through similar experiences and struggles. Please stay safe and take care of you first before anyone else.
Thank you. I'm also homeschooled though, so no counselors. I do have troubles taking care of myself, as my instinct is to protect the people I love, at any cost to myself. For that reason I have a tendency to bury my own emotions to a dangerous degree. Well. I suppose that's pretty obvious now.
