...See more i have never been officially diagnosed with anything, but sometimes i get really angry for no reason at all, like i saw someone i didnt like, or if someone accidentally bumps into me or anything. i get really mad at the simplest things. also, i have never been very happy about my appearance and no matter how many uplifting quotes about being 'beautiful just the way you are', i never have been really happy with my looks or my weight. i haveonly told one person about this, but i started to hurt myself by cutting and brusing my forearms and thighs. the friend that i told had depression and said that i might have it as well. i have never been officially diagnosed, but im still not sure. I get feelings of mostly a mix of confusion, uselessness, worthlessness, and hate, usually toward myself. i havent told anyone about this, i have never had a therapist, because i dont know how my parents would cope with it. i dont think that they would be upset, but they are those kinds of 'stereotypical society' kind of parents. they believe that mental illness is a thing that can be cured with a simple prayer and a healthy diet. i feel that my life is crumbling apart, and im constantly worrying if anyone's actually there for me, including my closest friend, one that i trust to a certain extent. i have a hard time trusting people as well. i told my friend that i had stopped hurting myself, but i actually still do. i dont want to put that kind of pressure on her. i constantly feel crushed by stress and hopelessness and all the secrets that i keep from people. i only told that one friend because i didnt want to be called a liar or an extreme attention seeker. i have no doctor or therapist, because my parents see it as a waste of money and time. what do i do? thanks for helping me
