For the past three years or so i've been really sad, like to the point where i've hurt myself. i told my mum ages ago but she said i couldn't go to the doctors becasue my dad couldn't know. now he does and i really want to go the the doctors to get some help because i seriously can't continue like this. however he showed no reaction and the both of them are trying so hard to stop me from getting help because they think it will affect my future. the only thing that will affect my future is if i continue like this. they've really let me down and i've made my own appointment however i can't even see them as parents right now. i can't understand why the people i'm always meant to be able to ask for help are so against me getting help and i can't take the amounts of pressure they're putting on me to not go. i really don't know how to handle this and could use some help.

I personally would advise you to talk to someone like a school nurse, close friend or someone you trust. You are entitled to go to the doctor's about it, it's your right. You live in england? Why dont you try to ring Childline 0800 1111 and tell them your problem.

I think you should get some help, im alway's here if you ever want to talk.

Good Luck!

You are in school? If so I would go and see a school councilor, your parents shouldn't be able to stop you from going even to a doctor. Your mum probably didn't want to get into trouble off your dad, and they could be scared at what could happen.

But the best thing to do would be to talk to someone like I said above. Even sit your parents down together and say something like I can't live like this anymore, I want to be happier or something similar. Also as Charlie Ann said you could phone Childline if you wanted too.

the only school counsellor at school is a our chaplin ad i'm agnostic, so talking to her generally end up at religion, which isn't relly what i need. i'll try childline but the walls in my house are paper thin.

Oh. Maybe you should tell her, you are not religious and you dont want the conversation to be diverted to religion, you just want to talk to somebody.
If your worried your parents might hear, maybe ring from the garden on go for a walk and go somewhere quiet. It helps ^^
If you ever want to talk, im always here.
