Ah, here we go....10 posts.

About 4 days ago, my mom took me to a counselor.

She knows I cut, so she took me to a counselor. We talked, and he's pretty sure (I am too, but, meh) that I have depression, as it runs on both sides of the family.

So, yeah. Not really sure the point of this....just.....wanted to share?

Seeing somebody really does help. It made me feel a lot better.....too bad I'm feeling really low again. :\

Sorry to hear you're feeling low. But, good for you for getting some therapy! It's really a wonderful experience, not at all like what most think it is. When's your next appointment?

If you're depressed, the good news is that there's lots of proven treatments, you'll get better! The bad news is that, like now, sometimes you'll feel low. But it's temporary! With therapy, you'll feel better more, and low less often.

Hang in there.

Depression sucks. I know from personal experiences.

:) glad to hear that the therapist helped. ^ _ ^ I remember my first visit. They're such nice people aren't they. They're the best listeners in the whole world, that's why I think they help so much.

Scatman has a good point. Find someone you're close with (anyone, girlfriend, friend, adult, :P it can even be your parents) that you're comfortable talking to and share your feelings with them. good friends always want to help, but they can't help until you come to them for help. "Help me, to help you" :D good quote. Cliche, but good in this case.

^_^ you can always keep going to the therapist if you're comfortable with them, they don't mind either :P. Maybe even attend one of those group therapy thingies? I've always wondered what they'd be like. Sometimes, meeting people with the same general problems as you helps too.
