I'm really mentally exhausted and wish I could go into detail but I'm just going to keep it simple.

I need help.
I want to be happy again. I've been depressed for about 2 months now. Cutting deeper and getting more suicidal. I've signed up to this forum in hopes of help, and it has so far, but I think I do need more support and guidance. How do I ask for it?

I personally think I need to go back to the self-harm clinic for a few days and as it may be torture and cause home-sickness, it helped me out last time. Lead me to feel better. But it didn't last.

I don't know what I need.

To make this simple; how do I ask for help?

talk it over with your mom, or your dad. whichever parent or adult guardian you're closest to. tell them your thoughts, and put out the idea of seeing a professional, cause that sounds like what you need. i'm glad this website helped you thus far, that's what it's for. :) if you want anyone to talk to, i'm here. :hug:

As Morgan said, talk to your parents about it. If you find it hard doing it face to face try sending them an email or a text. If you can't tell either of them, talk to a school councillor or a teacher. maybe take a friend along with you to do that if you think it will help.
Feel free to contact me if you ever need any help :)

you really need to talk to your parents about this and then maybe go see a therapist. for most people that is the best option if you are mentally exhausted then it might not be from a hard situation but because you have a chemical inbalance and may need medication sorry if my advice doesn't help
