How do I tell my parents that I'm depressed?
Hi there. I've been experienecing depression for almost 3 years now, and it just keeps getting worse. I've self harmed and tried to starve myself and I don't know how to tell my parents, because I am scared for how they will react. Does anyone have any advice?
I'm sorry to hear that you've gone through that, Rem :c
I find that I over think a lot of stuff, we all do, actually. When we think of "if" statements in our head, they usually have negative outcomes, though in reality they almost always aren't negative. Having this mindset usually holds us back quite a bit from sharing our thoughts and trying new stuff.
I hope that you find a way to tell them, I wish you all the best!
@kindheartedWaterfall39 @Joe2017 Thank you so much for your advice. I was able to tell my parents last night and they're gonna get me help <3
I'm glad you had the courage to ask for help! There is always somebody who is willing to help.
Im really happy to hear that your parents were very supportive and understanding. I hope you end up getting the support you need. Best of Luck!!
