I want to get help.

[WanderingHeart]

As many of you know I have several issues - including suicidal tendencies.
If you've bothered to read my posts you'd know my current situation.

I think I should get help.
The problem is, my parents aren't allowing it. I've tried everything to try to get them to get me into therapy but it's not working. Therefore, I'm going to tell my school counselor (who hasn't really helped all that much) that if nothing changes, I'm going to kill myself.
And I mean it.

Summer is coming and I don't want to spend 3 months here with things getting only worse. I want my parents - who stopped taking me to the doctor so they wouldn't ask why I hadn't gotten therapy - to take me back to the fucking doctor so I can tell them everything that's going on. I don't care if I end up in a psyche ward at some point. I've been there before and I liked it better than here.

How exactly do I go about this, though? I have until Monday, where I'll be talking to my counselor. I just want to be straight up about it. Yeah. That's what I'll do.

I want to get help, but I'm scared no one will believe me. Nobody ever believes me, they always just listen to my parents. My parents always lie, and they make me keep silent about things...

"If you've got no place to go
I want you to know
It's your time, it's your world
And you must grab a hold and take control."

I don't wanna be fucking silent anymore. I wanna be fucking happy.

You have every right to receive the help you need, and nobody can stop that. Whether or not your parents lie, let it be known that nobody knows you better than yourself. Take advantage of that. Do you have any other relatives or people close to you that can take you to the doctor?

There are people out there who will always believe you, and can provide you with what you need. It's not just the counsellor who's job it is to make sure you feel safe, all staff at your school have the responsibility to hear you out. It's hard, but simply looking for help is helping yourself, and if you keep that up everything will get better for you.

The road to ridding depression can be a long and arduous path, but all things must come to an end, and I'm sure everyone will agree it's better to let depressions' path end rather than your life. If you're ever in a serious crisis with your suicidal tendencies, then please please PLEASE call your areas suicide hotline. There are many of them and they are available 24/7 to help you.

Stay safe and all the best.

Hold on tight. Don't forget, this ride is a wild one, so don't lose your fight, and we'll both keep pushing to pull on through. With so much left to do, you'll be missing out, and I'll be missing you :)

Corniness aside, please do keep fighting. I don't want to know that I've failed to help somebody, please. You have to keep going, if not for yourself, for me. They say the two most important days of your life are the day you were born, and the day you find out why. I believe that it's my purpose to help people, and so far I don't believe I've failed yet. So please, keep fighting, I know you can do it. Just stick by me and remember our pact, if one of us gives up so does the other, and I don't feel like dying any time soon

Thank you so much. I plan to tell her on Monday that I want to get into therapy, and if my parents don't do anything then she has no choice but to get involved. As for the doctor, where I am if your parent/guardian has to give permission to let that relative take you there.

And neither do I. I really appreciate you guys' replys, they mean so much to me. Thanks guys.

I always figured that if you really need help, you could just e-mail someone like a therapist or someone like that. If your parents refuse to help you, then I'm sure they could do something if you just reached out somehow and asked for their help. Idk that's always been my logic when people say their parents won't take them to get help so it's all over.

Suicide is the darkest point in anyone's life. When you think about it, it's like the most human thing that a human can do. It's making the decision, by your own will, to take your life. This is something that only humans can truly do by their own willpower and with reason to do so. It's the darkest part of humanity, and it is absolutely horrifying in concept.

That being said, there are much better plans of action than suicide. Suicide is simply giving up. It does not solve the problem, but rather it negates the problem.

I saw this video the other day and thought it was pretty interesting:

Huh...that is interesting.

I guess I'll just try it out with my school counselor, see what will happen.

[WanderingHeart]

Tomorrow's the day...I'm really nervous and scared.

I am really glad that you are getting help. How was it? What did they suggest?

Yeah no it didn't work out...

[Microcosm]

Yeah no it didn't work out...

If you don't mind my asking, what happened?

You have to open up to them. If you don't, it can be very difficult for them to help you. I'm not sure if that's the problem, but I really want to know what happened so I can try to help.

I did open up. I told her I really wanted to get the help I needed. She (my school counselor) said she would talk to my parents but if they say no there's nothing she could do.

And I think you can guess what they said...

[PsychoticReality]

You've got all our support, I am so glad you are seeking help- everyone deserves it! I hope they can help you help yourself!

In regards to your parents having said no, you could in some cases over-rule their decision by maybe talking to another family member about your issues and see if they can do anything for you. If you confide in your school counsellor there should be ways they can help you without your parents having to agree?

Wish you all the best, remember, this battle is going to be a very tough one and you will need to stay strong- but you can do this! Blessed be!

Well school ends this Wednesday so I'll try to see...

The only person I can think of is my uncle. But he's getting ready because his family is leaving to another country for the entire summer.

So yeah...
