I have been depressed for a very long time. I want to die. And I get that if I do kill myself, people will miss me or whatever. I do want to find help, but I am not sure how exactly. And you can simply tell me to see a school counselor but just read this..
*I already went to one back in December. My parents got mad because I had to go to the ER for my depression, and they got all pissed because they got a big bill from it.
*My mom has a neurological problem, so they (my parents) already have thousands of dollars to pay right now for treatment.
*Seeing a Psychologist can't happen because my insurance won't support it. So my parents are mad that they would have to pay that off on their own.
*The nearest free clinic is like 50 miles away. I would not have any ride to get there, either.
I don't know what to do!! Someone please give me some advice. Thanks.
If you have an AIM username, and are willing to talk to someone such as me for help, send me a message telling me your username and I'll try to help you as much as I can. [ TheWallflower's advice column | Ask TheWallflower A Question ]

My parents didnt have the money either.In fact my mother had just had a heart attack. If i were you i would sit one of your parents down OR your favorite teacher. A school councilor is the best person to see. Now hold on because i know you are thinking "yeah yeah yea i tried that" But in reality you havent. Back then you told someone you were depressed and your parents got upset. You need to talk to them and tell them the WHOLE story. That your parents dont have the money and that you dont know what to do. You have to understand depression is not something that should be taken lightly. Its a very serious thing, and they are right people would miss you. Your parents need to understand that. A school councilor needs to talk to them about it. I know it seems hard but in the end it could save your life. Keep your head up. You arent alone. [ lilmegsoko's advice column | Ask lilmegsoko A Question ]
