Hello everyone! I'm new to 7 cups!♥️ I'm just going to talk about how I'm feeling right now and ask if you think I should get help. First of all, I'm 13 years old, you can call me "Ase", normally I'm hesitant to say my age, but what's the matter?... Whatever! I have been struggling with anxiety for a long time or for years. Unfortunately, panic attacks and crises started in the last few years. I have also been having suicidal thoughts for 1-2 years. I was even making plans last week. I consulted my friends because I was afraid of my family. They said I needed help, so I told my mother about the situation. And she allowed me to go to the psychologist, but she kept telling me, "There's nothing wrong with you."she kept saying things like "Don't humiliate yourself like that, girl".. I'm a crybaby and I cried while waiting for the session in front of my mother, the first session was good...it was an introduction session, the doctor prescribed me medication and I took it the next day, I'm still using it! But it still didn't seem to have any effect...pfft.

Hello Ase;

Welcome to 7cups, thank you for sharing.

You are the expert of you. Your feelings are legitimate and acknowledged. You are not alone.

If you feel you need a psychologist, then you should have one.

I am unsure of the time frame but medications can be anywhere from a week to a month before they are fully effective.

You are welcome to vent and speak your heart here without judgement.
