Re: again

Why do you feel you're mentally ill and why are you facing depression? Telling yourself why you feel depressed I think is a good move to make if you're unsure about it yourself.

Also, I might as well repeat myself when it comes to this sort of thing. Killing yourself is not the solution and should never be consider. That's not fixing, that's potentially creating more problems for your immediate family and your close friends.

And no one can really fix anyone's life but themselves in all honesty.

So yeah, take that what you will because I know you did this before and acted on it.

One question though, am I understanding your post about your parents not having you live at home if you choose to try to seek help? Is that what I'm reading here?

Re: again

Living at home isn't the end-all-be-all, even though it may seem so.

Sounds like you're Rapta, from the looks of what others are saying.

I'd take Andy's advice--read the other thread.

Calling a hotline doesn't have to cause drama--they can help you work through your thoughts. If you don't have a cell phone, maybe try just saying you want to call a friend.

Sadly it's true, though. We care about you, but there's only so much we can do through text.

If someone offers to talk to you, hit them up, maybe it'll help~

Re: again

I'm not sure what's going through your head Scintil, moreso than Ylvis. What the fuck gives you such apathy? You must not be all there and square or think this is way simpler than it is.

Add me on skype and I will talk to you. You're stuck in tunnel vision. It reaches a peak where nothing else is on your mind but one fixation. Yeah, you're in a mental illness induced loop. Please talk to me or anyone else here that has offered to be reached out to, you truly just need a different angle on things.

Anyone else who needs to talk or wants guidance, fuck it, since I keep pushing for a mental health resources subforum but nothing becomes of it, I might as well make it me. So talk to me.

im mentally ill because the majority of people can tell someone why they should live and i look at it and i cant say that therefore i must be mentally ill

My parents said they don't want to deal with any drama of having a bunch of people involved, else i cant live there anymore because she 'physically cant handle it'. she is very inhibiting of who i can talk to and what i can say about how i feel

Re: again

ok

Re: again

If you're parents are not willing to help then you're better off not choosing them when it comes for help---make the calls, then take steps to move out.

This assumes they'll even stick to their word.

To be honest with you dude, that's not a good self diagnosis, heh. When people give you reasons, it's not because they're not mentally ill themselves, it's because they see a different viewpoint or can give you a generic response without knowing what's actually going on with your life.

My parents said they don't want to deal with any drama of having a bunch of people involved, else i cant live there anymore because she 'physically cant handle it'. she is very inhibiting of who i can talk to and what i can say about how i feel

That's kind of cold for her. Do you think your mother means it when she threatens with you with that? Is it real? Or is it the type of "Ugh, I'm mad, but I still care for you" type of thing?

This is where I would ask about your personal/home life, but well... that's personal and this is a public forum, so...

Re: again

You're not a bother.

Actually I'm sure I speak for the majority of us when I ask that you keep us updated. Let us know where you descide to go, when you leave, when you got there, the basic (nonpersonal) jest of what the doc says.

Let us know how it goes. Talk to us. If you rather it not be public get at us on discord

Re: again

OK.
Being honest here.
Everybody trying to go about giving advice to Rapta is doing it wrong.

Look, Rapta, it's okay if you have thoughts of killing yourself, and it's okay if you've attempted suicide before. It's natural. It's how some of us cope with extreme/prolonged stress. You're not alone in those feelings.

Wrong is subjective. As someone who is often suicidal, has attempted suicide, and been in the hospital for longer than preferable stays due to suicidal behavior [couple weeks - month], simply being told "you're not alone in those feelings" isn't the answer for everyone. If I were being honest, I'd tell you how much i strongly dislike hearing that.

However, this thread is not about me--so if that is what is helpful for Rapta, indeed, by all means, help him understand that he's not alone. I do not deny the validity or truth behind the statement, yet for some it is more helpful than for others.

No need to be all rainbows and daisies, but as I said before, "wrong" is subjective [except for scintill in this thread, heh].

Those who have struggled similarly may offer what has helped personally for them in the past. People who haven't directly dealt with such situations may offer what seems most logical. It's all a crapshoot. My advice isn't necessarily "right" ~ nor is the next guy's. Taking a high and mighty stance over the lack of validity of everyone's advice [except your own] is dodgy.
