I'm not sure where to turn. I feel like I have run out of options and I just can't cope.

I've seen a pyschiatrist, physchologist, hypnotherapist and counseller- none helped. I recently went to my head of year when things were really too much- to the extent when it was either help or die- and she, although she said she wouldn't since she saw it wouldnt help, has just asked a counseller to speak to me. I need real help. I know it can help to talk through fears and everything but it hasn't helped me in the past and I cannot put myself through the pain of living for the date where I saw a therapist and begging them to help me. It was hell and it never really helped anything.

I need SOMETHING more now. Things are really bad at the moment. It's hard to explain but basically I have complete phobias of lots of things (certain films, accents, places, anything) that I can relate to a certain person who hurt me. I don't want to go into this since it's not overly relevent to this question.

I just want to know if there is ANYTHING else out there. I really don't know what to do. I want to die. I feel like everything is helpless and no one can help me. I'm not allowed medication as the pyschiatrist felt I was too dependant on things. I don't know where else to turn. My parents don't either.

The reason I went to my head of year was for this reason- I am totally stuck. I can't handle it. I feel like I am falling and no one can stop me. I need help so badly- I just can't see anything out there.

Please reply if you can; thankyou xxxx (link)
I have to tell you some thing very important. Please pay attention.
The way your feeling, and reacting to life right now is probably depression. And it's serious.
If you have a therapist, or doctor who doesn't think you "need" medications, that is only their opinion. Try a different doctor. Or clinic. Or support group. Or help-line.
I would be more than happy to listen to you. I know I'm not a doctor, but I'm a careing, listening advocate. I really am here for you.
The bottom line: Reach out for help. Again and again, if nessessary. Your worth fighting for! And remember, I'm here if you need me.
