about

Hi, I'm Katie ^-^

I really love giving advice, even if I'm not very good at it sometimes.. I still try!

Having experienced severe depression when I was younger, my best category would have to be mental health. I also do a lot of research on mental health, because honestly, it just really interests me. I've been thinking about becoming a social worker someday, to help others like me :) Giving advice here will probably be a good start for me ^-^

Well, I guess that's it. Have a nice day! :)

advice

I have been depressed and have had sucidal thoughts and have self harmed for a while now. I really feel like I need to tell one of my friend but I don't know how please help!

This has happened to me before, so I know how you feel. I was eventually able to get over it on my own (Without telling anyone), but the feeling never really went away. I don't recommend just letting it go away, as it may come back later on in life. One thing you could do is go to your best friend (The one you can trust, that understands you and won't call you a crazy lunatic or something.), and say to them, "{Friend's name}, I need to talk to you about something...". Go to a private location and tell them how you're feeling. If they're a good friend, they'll care and want to help. Just talking to someone might make the pain go away. You could also tell your parents, siblings (This one is a maybe, it depends on what kind of siblings you have, if any), psychiatrist, or school counselor about your problems, whatever they may be. They're always there to help! No matter how unloved and unwanted you feel, there will always be someone in the world that needs you, even if it doesn't always feel that way. Best of luck. :)
