Nobody has sympathy for people who are suicidal
Nothing but *** blame and shame, even those used to be suicidal don't have empathy for suicidal people, you would think those who went through a suicidal phase would sympathize with those who are going through a hard time and don't want to live anymore, but no. My mom was suicidal when she was younger but she (and dad) literally got *** off when I tried to commit suicide and they both *** yelled at me in the car! It's like my only existence is to *** suffer and I don't know how to stop it

This must be so hard for you Yurnuthere. I can only imagine what you're going through. When you feel that you are not getting the support you need, it can be very hard to believe that things can get better but they can and I hope coming here will help you.
Here are some suggestions that might be helpful:
Get a therapist if your family will support that or insurance pays for it.
Please make use of the crisis support if needed, you can find it here
Create a supportive network so that you can go to a friend to vent when things feel rough.

hi <3 it is sad that it seems nobody cares specially in such a sensitive time when you're needing their care and support the most ... me understands how lonely and depressing it gets ... how are you holding up?
how's your relationship with your parents if ok to ask? sometimes people close to us have a weird way of telling they care... being yelled at .. scolded...etc as ways of telling you they care about you and therefore don't want you to do anything to hurt yourself prolly because they were scared or something.... do you feel this could be reason why it seems they don't care? :(
do you consider crisis helplines for support when you're struggling with thoughts of harming yourself? <3 I hope you do 🥺 sends lots of strength to you
@Yurnuthere I am sorry that you were feeling so low that you tried to harm your body. I can empathize with how alone you must have felt when your parents got angry when they heard about it. It mus scare them a lot. The worst fear of a parent is their child would die before they do.
It is one of the hardest actions to come to terms with. Many people who feel that way require professional help to deal with that because it takes a professional to have an objective viewpoint that is not over emotional. Maybe that would be a better place to find empathy. Most people are scared to talk about death. That is a taboo topic in most people.
Unfortunately 7 Cups is not equipped to deal with crisis people so it is not a lack of empathy but a lack of training since it requires special skills to deal with that. Hope you find support.
