At times like this, what's the best kind of distraction (or deterrent?) for you? What has worked in the past?

It's going alright. Last semester I had to drop out of college because my depression became too much then this semester i spent the first month in the psych ward because I tried killing myself. However I somehow managed to make a come back, and am on the track of getting an A, c, d and one F. I usually am a straight A student with a 3.9 GPA so I'm just generally pissed at the world. However I enjoy my classes, and my school and the clubs I'm in.

Look, just calm down. Chillax. Chill. Take a good drink. coca cola.

You are stressed about school and stuff, life..

Listen to some music:


Talk to some people about stuff. Get your mind off of the routine and let go for a second. There is always time to do stuff.

Borderline about this and that, if you can't do it, dont worry there is time no need to do something "stupid". there is always a solution to a problem mostly that isnt actually doing something bad. dropping out for a while, or the recommended of getting proper help by the right people and the right meds.. then when you're better, you can show the world that you're not messing around on what YOU want and what your goal is.

Change is good. Thinking about one thing that you know is wrong just excludes the possibility of other things.

Here's something to jolt you that has a seizure warning;

I'm actually not stressed about school, I'm past the point of giving a **** actually. And seeing as how you don't know me, or even know my name, I don't think you should be telling me what I may be stressed over. I have nothing due, so school work is not an issue. And I am getting help, I have a therapist and counselor, and i'm sorry but what am I suppose to do without school? Where should I live? on the streets? Because that'll help so much. Especially since I have no health insurance, no income, no nothing. Dropping out of school means losing my place to live and losing both my T and my C. So unfortunately that is not an option for me. I don't get to have a ****ing vacation.

Ha, I wish it was one thing, I could deal with ONE thing. I know you meant to help but you are making assumptions about someone's life and you don't even know my name, so don't patronize me. Thank you for taking the time.

This is an old thread, but maybe there's something in it you haven't yet considered: Things to do instead of hurting yourself

I'm sorry guys, it seems that the way I'm feeling I just want to be sad. Thanks for trying to help but there's just something not right with the way I'm thinking I need to go sit with me feelings for a while and figure out why I'm feeling this way suddenly.

I knew that I was going to have a harsh reply like this. But take it this way, I'm 17 and I'm just trying to get you to realize that your version of living on the streets and maybe getting some type of infection that you can do nothing about from the slums because you have no health insurance, being even more miserable than you already are is not true. Unless the school pays for your health insurance, apartment and everything like your T?

"I have nothing due, so school work is not an issue."
Sorry I don't understand the logic of what you mean by that.

I guess I should have pointed out that my previous comment was not from me, the supposed guardian angle that could save you from doing something stupid.. that was my bad. My comments don't have to mean anything whether I know your name or not.. I am just a commenter.

But that saying shouldn't have to be implemented because no one actually does know everything about your life or your name. Or do they?

Yes. My university pays for my shelter. I have NO health insurance. I'm not worrying about an infection. I can't get meds. I have to pay out of pocket and this month I have no meds because I don't have 51 bucks to go towards my meds. Thats why the no health insurance bothers me. I have no money, i've been looking for a job since September. And unfortunately I am getting kicked out of the place I'm staying at the end of this month so it doesn't even matter. Cause I don't have school after Dec 13. So I have no place to go. In the middle of winter.

So don't tell me my worries aren't legitimate just because they are a bit extreme. My only other option is to beg my physically and verbally abusive mom to let me back into the house to live with her and her boyfriend who sexually attacked me a few years ago and still wants to make babies with me--his own words not mine. So excuse me for being slightly MISERABLE. And for not taking your condescending ignorant remarks with a grateful SMILE.

OMG I'm sorry about what you're going through that's horrible and twisted :/

Try to get through the best you can don't end your life.
