Its funny how they try to help me with these anti-depressant medicine, and put me to counseling therapy and such but it is them that is party causing me to be depressed. They keep on emphasizing how I don't have any friends, a dumbass and a loser. I just want to them to shut up but all I am doing is acting cool about it like they are joking to show no weakness. Deep inside its tearing me apart and thats all i think about all night long as I cry myself to sleep. Is it wiser to let them to know to stop talking to me like that or should I just play it cool and just cope with it myself?

Yes tell your parents how much they are hurting you and tell your councelor he/she may be able to help you with this. baby tee Posted at 2:22 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 Quote: from danielle elizabeth at 7:26 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 tell them how it hurts you. ^^ tell me again Posted at 11:28 am on Nov. 26, 2008 I think you should tell them if they would listen to you. But if they are just being unhelpful assholes and don't respond well to "this is how I feel" conversations then it's best to get away from them as much as possible so that they don't bring you down. And just focus on the help that you are getting, instead of their misunderstanding. I hope it works out for you soon. sadnessness Posted at 11:27 am on Nov. 26, 2008 Wow its like reading about my own life!

PM if you need to talk switchfoott052 Posted at 11:27 am on Nov. 26, 2008 my mom criticizes me too. she doesn't relize that she's the reason i have to see a counsellor and take anti depressants. i finally have friends but she bitches everytime i want to hang out with them. she wants be to be a loser that sits at home all day and lets my life waste away. if ur 16 and ur state allows emancipation i'd consider getting out of there. wisconsin doesn't have an emancipation law so im stuck at home unless i run away. danielle elizabeth Posted at 11:26 am on Nov. 26, 2008 tell them how it hurts you. bg kNIFE Posted at 11:25 am on Nov. 26, 2008 Move out.
