P.s.-- sorry for my very bad english since its not my first language

I joined this website 2 days ago and today i finally got courage to meet a psychiatrist.So yeah i have been diagnosed with oscillating severe depression. Earlier i wrote my story in the new thread section but i didnt talk about suicide attempt . I told the doctor about all this and he calmly explained to me that it will be alright from now on since i finally decided to help myself.my medications just started and in a few days cognitive behavioural therapy will be started soon.But he did say that he wanted to meet my parents to explain them whats going on with me.

and this is where I am terrified, so far i kept my image as a good student in front of them but i dont know what will happen when they finally know the truth.They are coming yesterday,hoping that i will handle the situation before it turns into a disaster.
Hugs from:

Very excellent work on your part.

There is nothing to be ashamed of in having this disease. We can't help it. Others attitudes need to treat it that way. This is what the doctor will explain to your parents. If they are kind and supportive they will only want what is best for you and they will learn about it.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
