...See more I can’t be with her anymore. I’ve been losing feelings and I’ve tried to stick it out but I don’t have the energy to keep this up anymore. I’m good at acting but I’m at the end of my rope. The saddest thing is I know it’s gonna destroy her. But I also know I’m the long run that not telling her and keeping going will hurt her even worse. I feel horrible.

...See more Just had an appointment today to go get antidepressants, and they started a questionnaire and I answered them all truthfully, and the next thing I know they sent me to the psych ward and almost had me staying overnight. It was scary tbh because everything escalated so quickly. Thankfully my mom was able to convince them to let me go home, and then we got to hear my dad try to make it her fault😢 but on the bright side I got my medication and a new experience out of it.

...See more I’m 16, depressed, it sucks obv but I like to find solace in outside and in music. I love metal music. And for the life of me I cannot figure out how to @ someone on this app.

...See more I had depression last year while I was in 8th grade but with support I got out of it. Now im a freshman and it’s back way worse than before. It’s mostly due to my dad. I hate him for how he treats me and my mom and my brothers. My mom has tried to leave him but he threatens to sell the house or kill himself and then she backs down. She runs an in home daycare so that would leave her out of a job and a home. He argues with her constantly because she sticks up for us and because he’s out of control, for example just the other day he sent her a screenshot of the new Beyoncé album and said if she downloaded it he would divorce her. When I stick up for her it just turns into me vs him and it’s gotten physical a couple of times, he is relatively unhealthy but still has muscle from his time in the army. I wish nothing more than him dying of a heart attack or him getting in a car crash just so we would be free. He has my 10 year old brother having suicidal/self harm thoughts. He is a 10 year old, he should not have to deal with this. I just need advice on what to do, how to fix this, because I can’t sit by and watch it happen anymore.
