I Need Some Advice Posted: 07-22-05 14:24pm
I've been suffering from depression for a
long time now, a very long time. But
within the last year, it got to the point
I started self-injuring. Then I stopped
eating. To make a long story short, I
live with my mom during the school year
and visit my dad during the summer. This
year my visit with him has only been
sadness and drama. I love him so much,
but I can't even enjoy what little time I
have with him because the depression and
eating consume my thoughts. But I know
that being here has done me good and
staying here would make me much happier
and healthier than going home, and so does
my dad. He's currently talking to my
friends mom(a therapist who found out what
was going on and helped me through a lot)
about me staying here and the possibility
looks really good. But I know no matter
how much I want to stay, I can't because
it would break my moms heart. So in
reality, I only have about two more weeks
to enjoy my visit. What do I do :cry: ?

Just try and make the most of it.
Remember your parents will always be there
for you no matter what.
My dad is in a different country which is
a 3 hour and 45 minute plane ride, he was
here a few weeks go in which I hadn't seen
him for three years because I decided to
move over here to australia because my
did.
My family is divided to. But in the end
we are still a family.

I too, am from a broken home, its crap,
not a very good card deck you were dealt
as far as having a mother and father who
are together. If anything, try humor,
some of the most famous comedians are the
products of a broken home. Don't starve
yourself, or cut yourself, it's not worth
it, just leaves ugly scares, and gross
breath that you will be depressed about
later on in life. Be happy that you have
two parents that care about you, that your
not on one of those maury povich type talk
shows title "who's your baby's dad", now
that's depressing. Do what’s best for
you, what will make you happy as far as
where you live. Just remember most of the
world's people are unhappy at different
times in their life’s, I was very
unhappy as a teenager, it does get better,
then not, then better again, the "roller
costar of life" (some quote I heard from
some old lady who always sat in the
neighbor’s car)
