I always need ppl to talk to but no one gets it. I hav very little frnds which only one of them is a frnd who I cud talk to abt stuff but ik tht she wud choose ppl over me. I hate getting help, if i say anything abt my mental health then my mom wud b like "Oh so shud I put u in a mental hospital now?!?!?" No one takes stuff seriously. Anyone who can relate?

Honestly yes. My parents would say stuff like "do you want to go to a mental hospital?" It stung a lot. I just got used to not wanting to talk about it and shut it down whenever anyone asked. Hopefully you find the resources to help get through this.

         Some people do not like to talk about anything uncomfortable parents think of first item they think will 'Fix" things, so they do not have to deal with it.   it is not always that people do not get you, but they do not want you to see they do not have answers, or the subject could be hard for them too. 

maybe they at one time had issues and they did not get the support they looked for and are afraid talking will not help you either.
