Not wanting to go into details, I had a severe wound that needed to be checked. Since I'm only fifteen, I went to the counselor at school and he helped me get into the clinic place that was recently built at my school. It felt nice knowing that these people, who didn't even know me, wanted to help me. Plus, I can have therapy through this program which will probably help with my SI.
Here's the kicker though, my parents do not want them putting me on any type of drug at all, because they believe that they're bad. Do you think there's anyway to explain to my parents that sometimes meds (antidepressants) are good for a person?
Any thoughts on the subject would help me a lot.

Probably one of the reasons you're parents aren't sure about the anitdepressents is because they can cause or increase sucidal behavior in teens and young adults, my parents weren't real thrilled when they found out my T wanted me on meds because of that reason. Maybe you should sit them down and talk to them or do some research on the web and find statistics that show how much they help. Maybe after you start thearpy they can come and talk to T? ((((((((Sanguis))))))))) I hope everything goes well and be gentle with your self.

Best wishes and hugs

Thanks for the reply.
See the thing is though, that they are already set in that. They also believe now that if I eat at the dinner table, I'll be happy and will stop hurting myself.
Hopefully with the help of this T, we can get some of this stuff through their heads.
