Need your opinion. Help?
I may be depressed, but I've always told my parents that I would want go and see a therapist; but each time I say it, my parents scoff and told me it's not important, and that I have my priorities: study and get a degree.
I would consider to go on my own expense, but I was thinking of the cost since I presume it's very expensive.
I really don't know what to do, and I would appreciate if you'd give me some advice on this.
Thanks and love,
Yeol.
I'm so sorry to hear about your situation. I think firstly it might be due to the lack of knowledge of depression. I notice you used the word "may". If you want, perhaps you can check out the depression self help guide on 7cups. The link is https://www.7cups.com/depression-help-online/.
Inside it, there's a Depression Online Test where you can do to check out your scores. It might not be 100% accurate and cannot replace a clinical diagnosis, but at least you can get a feel of how you feel :) The link is as follow: https://www.7cups.com/depression-test/
Last but not least, I hope you'll be able to find a way to seek professional help! All the best! =D
