overwhelmed


Question Posted Wednesday December 20 2006, 12:42 pm

I am so stressed out and depressed right now. My grades keep dropping and I try so hard to keep them up but some times it's so hard.

I went to the ER a few weeks ago because of my depression and my parents were so mad! I did counseling, so when I told a counselor about my suicidal thoughts that's when they directed me to the ER.

Now, I am afraid to go back to counseling, because if they send me back to the ER my parents will be pissed, also because of the huge medical bill we got from going to the ER last time. I'd hate to waste my parents' time and money over my mental health.

It's so hard to be happy right now, even when I try to. My friends tend to think nothing about it, and leave me alone. And at some occasions, even ignore me.

I feel so overwhelmed and stress, probably mainly because of school, my job, and christmas.

Please help me out, give me advice how to overcome and/or deal with this. =[

Thanks.

in my oppinion, your parents are being unreasonable i have just recently went to the hospital for cutting and my mom was mad for a while, mostly cause she had to find out from the cops that i was cutting, so i think next time you have suicidal thoughts, go to them and try talking to them, let them help you,
and if that doesn't work, go to the counselor, you should never be afraid to talk to them. just ths time go to a different counselor.
i suggest the guidence center they have wonderful conselors. i've been going for a year now and it's realy helped.

hope this helps,
crystal.

Well I can kinda understand where your coming from because my parents would care if I made a hostpital bill that was really expensive but expescialy about suicide they should help you.Get you a tutor for grades that are the lowest, if this is your hardest time your friends should be there and if there not they might not be true friends and you should drop them as fast as there dropping you.Remember that suicide is never the answer and when it seems the only way out its not.Try your hardest in class it maybe hard but ask a teacher for extra help and let them see that your trying.Tell your parents your trying- and say that you need a theripst. If you don't have the money talk to your guidence counciler.She may not seem like much but they give good advice but wait a bit to tell her about suicide again.Kinda keep off it and let her but the peices together.

I hope you don't turn to the worst exit.

I hopeyou the best inlife and happiness

Dear overwhelmed,

This is a really hard topic and i'm going to do the best i can to help.

First of all please don't go suicidal, because scientists were studying it and %90 of suicidal people regret what going suicidal but it's too late to turn back.
I'm afriad of counsling too, they aren't the best resources in my opinion, you need to find something you enjoy that doesn't get you stressed.
-Find a video game that you love that you can get lost in
-Find a book series that will grab your attention
-Try to hang out with your friends some more
-Join a sports team, it'll motivate you to keep your grades up

Pretty much just distract your mind. And as far as your parents sit down and talk with them, let them know what is going on in your life it may not be the first thing on your mind to do but it's a good idea, because it's better to cry or talk and just let everything out to people who are close to you then to hide it away from them, your parents probably have no clue what you are going through and you should let them know because they can't read your mind. Let them know then that will make you less stressful.

If you need more help just message me again or e-mail me at

Your parents should not feel burdend by your mental health problems. If something is wrong you need to see someone. If you see a doctor or a psycologists, they may be able to give you medicine to help and if not they should be able to help you in another way... But you need to be honest with your parents... You need to tell them if you think you have depression.. and it may be more than that... At one point my family thought I was going through depression and we found out it was much more than that. I have OCD and ADD, which has nothing to do with depression and they put me on medicine to help me, and it worked. Good luck. And don't worry, it will all work out.
