Yesterday in my first class, science, the teacher came up to me and sat down next to me. She said, "can I ask you a question?" And I was like ok, because I thought it was about my grades. She said "I've noticed you've been acting quiet and withdrawn from class. Is it because (my friend) moved away? What's going on?" I said "no it's not because she moved away." And my teacher said to me, "is there things going on in your head?" And I was like "yeah I guess" and my teacher said "it's either yes or no but you don't have to tell me." And I said yes. She then said "well, it's okay to get help. If you want. Let me know." And she got up and left and I don't know what to do about this whole thing.

If it's something you want to discuss, she opened her door to you.
Do you feel like opening up, to her? Sent from my LG-MS910 using Tapatalk 2 |

Awesome! This is an opening, an opportunity to talk with someone who is most probably sympathetic. Talking is scary/risky, and it is up to you.

Italianfire, this sounds like a great opportunity for you, and I would take her up on it! Maybe she is offering to talk to you herself, or maybe she means she is willing to help you get professional help. Either way, I'd jump on it. You don't have to do this all alone or feel this way forever.

Hi Italianfire, I would suggest do what you feel like doing. One day during last year I had a mental breakdown at my school, and a teacher was there to comfort me and it was nice to have someone to talk to. I find that if you let everything build up for too long, it all eventually just bursts out. Anyways, its up to you and how comfortable you feel talking to her.

I liked how she didn't pressure you. It's definitely worth considering. But don't wait too long. Sometimes the longer we wait that voice in our head that tells us that we don't need help becomes more convincing.

This is amazing, I'm so happy for you. Take her up on her offer if you feel comfortable, it would be a huge step on your part if you so choose. Either way, this is awesome and a fantastic oppurtunity. Good luck friend.

Seems like the opportunity came to your door you should take it. Take the chance you have now, you don't know if you'll get it again. But its up to you if you feel comfortable with her.
Good luck. |

Hi, that's great news Italianfire.
Absolutely go for it!! What she said shows that she's noticed what other people may not have in you, that she cares, that she cares enough to reach out to you, and that she might be sympathetic/empathetic to what's going on for you. Sometimes opportunities like that can come along all too seldom, so got to be worth a shot!! Alison ![]() |

No journey can start until the first step is taken, here is someone offering to help share those first steps on the journey.

I think you should definitely take that step and talk to her. You can't get help unless you open up to someone
