I've been so depressed recently.
my
energy level has dropped immensely, even
though I get more sleep than I have
before. It's difficult for me to laugh,
or find anything enjoyable anymore. I
just want to shut myself away from the
world. I've contemplated suicide too many
times. I address the problem to my mom,
who doesn't think much of it. I ask her
if I can get medication for it, because
i've tried so many things to try and help
the sadness, like surrounding myself with
friends, writing, talking to a counselor,
etc. But she thinks that medication is a
bad thing in general, so she won't take me
to see a doctor about it. Well, wait a
minute. Isn't this
me we're
talking about? Shouldn't I have control
over myself and what I think is best for
me? She doesn't understand my situation,
and unfortunately I have a feeling that
she never will.
