I Need Help.....fast!
Posted: 07-01-06 03:17am

I don't know what to do anymore and that is starting to scare me. I have been to therapist all my life because of depression, it seems like I have had it since about age 5 and I am 18. I have been on all sorts of depression medication as well and nothing helps. I have to hide that I am depressed from all my friends and family because they all think I am weird because the way I feel. Im not suicidal or anything but I have thought about it and I am running out of options. I had a boyfriend for a while and I feel in love with him and when we were together I felt the best that I ever have and he left me and I have been miserable ever since and it about kills me everyday. I live with my dad and he is a alcoholic and never even notices I exsist most of the time. My mom is to stuck up her new husbands ass to pay me any attention. I was going to move away to go to college so I could get away from here b/c I have to see my ex all the time and it about kills me cause I love him so much. I cant afford to move away so I am stuck here in this town and I hate it. I used to be into cutting myself really bad but I quit b/c people always wanted to know why I had cuts all over me and it got hard to explain. I overdosed last year when my ex broke up with me and my heart about quit but my sister got me to the hospital against my will and now im still here. I have pretty much quit eating, I never have an appitite and so I am really skinny and I try to eat and I can't. I know that is not healthy.

I dont really want to die, and I don't want yall to think I am crazy I mean this is just a very very short version of all the caca I go through. I am running out of options and I feel so alone, I don't know what to do. Someone please give me some advice or something.

I know what you feel. Now is not forever!! I do not have alot of words, but I want you to eat..Ok? Look up!! Everyone has crazy stuff to deal with. We just take it to another level, but that is only our thinking pattern.
Start thinking something different....Whatever you want but different ok??

Move on your young and alive and this time of your life only happens once. Live life to the fullest and forget the bad things that go on live for yourself not everyone around you depend on your friends alot because they will always be there and you will gain more in your life time. Really if you tink about it you have just started a new life your 18 now so your a young adult it is time to face the world on your own so new opportunities will come your way and you will meet so many new people through out going to school and work that you won't have time to think about the negative things keep your chin up your about to enter a whole new rehlm of fun and excitement just get out there and enjoy every new opportuinity in your young life, "open new doors," take baby steps though so that you may protect your heart, for girls it is very easy to open our hearts and let ones in that could easely hurt us so make sure you can really trust someone before letting them in. One thing women need to have and have the right to have is strong shoulders so be strong and don't be affraid to wipe some of the weight that you carry on your shoulders off. I hope that I helped some and if you ever just need to talk to someone I am a adult women that went through alot of what you are going through when I was younger and it wasn't until I was 26 that I took this advice that I just gave you to heart so you can pm me anytime because this is one subject that I reallly like to talk about and am going through phsycology classes to become a councelor. I will listen and I also hope to help.

I think if you can get away and go to college that would help you a lot and they would probably have good counseling services through the college's health center. I am in a cbt group where I am learning to help myself through the use of coping strategies. There is an exercise in the book we are using called a tea form where you identify thinking errors and counter them and it has already helped me more than any of therapy or drugs I have taken. Any help is better than none so I hope you find some soon and or have friends you can lean on until you find something to help you out. Just remember things can and will get better for you; losing hope is the worst! I almost lost mine several times and things are finally starting to come together for me when I least expected it.
