Thank you for writing back. Your first letter has me really concerned about you.
Sometimes I am not sure which is tougher, being a teenager or young adult. As a teenager we yearn to be 21 and free from our parent’s oversight and able to do as we please. In our med twenties we wish for the security of High School and our parent’s home. We sometimes find that the adult world presents more pressures than we were prepared to handle. Some of us find different outlets for the stress through sports, camping, Church or hobbies. Some of us turn this stress inward and that is where the problem begins.
We begin to feel lost, that the problem is bigger than we are and will never be resolved. Our self worth rockets through the floor and we feel totally helpless. This is the beginning stages of depression. If left untreated we spiral downward to the point we start to believe we have few choices left to us. The depression has taken such tight control that we misinterpret just about everything. No problem is irresolvable or bigger than you are; they just need to be knocked down to size. Once we start managing what it is that is bothering us and resolving some of the problems, we start to feel better about ourselves. Once this starts to happen the sun starts to shine and the birds start to sing and the world is a better place. It does not happen overnight and you cannot do it alone. You need the help of medical professional and therapists. Please call the hotline numbers I included in my last message or go to a hospital emergency room.
Your feelings for your boyfriend; is it the depression talking or is the relationship truly over? As I said in my last answer to you; you need to separate yourself, at least temporarily from this relationship. You need to speak with your boyfriend and tell him everything your feeling. He might already realize something is wrong and not sure what to do for you. Tell him you feel the need to be alone while you get yourself sorted out. If he won’t move out then you have too. As I said before, if that means moving back with your parents so be it. This would also be a good time to tell your parents how you’re felling so the y can help you get well. ]
