Q: What Should I Do
asked by: eOns of gREy on November 4th, 2007
New User
I'm 15, sophmore in high school, ugly as hell, and severely overweight due to "comfort eating." (Hopefully if you guys ignore that last part you'll help me anyways instead of insult me seeing as this is a health forum). I've been depressed since the beginning of the 9th grade, and I don't know what to do. I've cut myself about 3 times in my life, the first time I thought it was fun and I wasn't really even depressed. Then I did it again, but it hurt so I stopped(like I said, Not depressed). Then I did it a last time in the 9th grade, but I didn't find any pleasure in it from depression so I just left it at that. But now I want to do it again.

I'm paranoid, and can't sleep without a TV on so I can see if there is anything evil in my room(I'm religious) or any type of thing that might try to scare me. I used to see things a lot when I was a kid, and it went away until now(saw a reflection of a skeleton, cried to my mom, came back, it was gone).

I feel like school doesn't matter(oh wait, it doesn't) and I want to fail the grade so I can get into a relationship with someone who's younger than me, and I just like high school(Adults.. Think of all the dumb things people did when you were in high school). I don't want to leave high school, but I don't want to be alone.

I can never remember anything, I never have lasting friendships, I'm quiet, annoying as hell(to the point where I get slapped in the face). My grades are low, I keep having panic attacks(more than a normal person would have) and every now and then my heart hurts(And I'm 15). We went to the doctor, but they didn't detect anything bad, so now my mom mocks me when I tell her I need to go to the doctor. I even told her I cut myself(the LAST time I did it she saw the cut) and she said she'd get me a counselor. Twice.

She lied.

Now I'm doing bad in school, I'm depressed, lonely, scared of dying and going to hell, keep having panic attacks, and I don't know what to do!

I just came here hoping someone could help. I want to get to a doctor but I can't. Anyone have suggestions on how to do this?

The last few nights I've been at my dad's(parents divorced, don't care, I hate them both) I've been hearing wierd noises. A hugeass boom like you hear when you live near a base and they do bomb testing or something, someone opening a trash can, then outside my wall in my backyard the sound of a group of people stomping on the ground. All in one night. No one was around the house.

I think it was because of pictures I looked at at school. I'll never do it again. I just want someone to help me but if I'm worthless to you I understand if you make fun of me.

i just wish i could get a doctor. well.. the time we went for my heart issues the doctor said i was depressed and i got antidepressants, but my mom didnt let me take them. she thinks im all happy and everything. now she just wont do anything. i have been living with my dad for a few months(i just chose to, it's not required by law or anything he lives close by) but i dont want an emotional relationship wtih him because i really dont like him(i get depressed when he comes home from work). I just want to cut myself right now. i dont know what to do besides that.

eh dont cut yourself its not going to permanently solve anything and niether will drugs...

you sound fine to me. just a normal teenager thats going through a rough time in life. why do you NEED anti depressant meds? you dont.
its a hard part of life being where you are. we all go through tough caca
doesnt mean we should fill ourselves with the idea that something is wrong with us

nothing is wrong with you hunni
youre a perfectly normal teenager.

i dont think its your health at all. i think its the stae of life that your in and the way your mind is telling you youre never going to be alright. now im no doctor and i dont know you personally but from what youve explained to me...

why am i constantly sad? because you feel like your life is empty and that youre never going to get out. you feel trapped and alone and youre scared. youre scared of yourself.

why do i think constantly about killing myself? because thats an easy way to deal with what youre going through. eh just kill yourself? yes that will solve everything? how?

why am i secluded and not social? because you dont give yourself the chance to be social. you have a very low self esteeme
you have to learn to appretiate yourself before others can appretiate you Smile


why do i eat for comfort? thats COMPLETELY normal. hell i do that all the time.

why am i always tired? because you often spend your nights lying awake in sadness wondering why youre the way you are. thinking about tomarrow and when its going to change. dreading falling asleep because you know youre going towake up and its all going to be the same. you dont even know this about yourself yet. but its true

why do i not care about anything? because you dont care about yourself...which is the main reason why. if you dont matter then why should anything else right?

why do i self depreciate? because you ofetn think so much about everything wrong and what is going on. what you wish life was like insteda of actually moving towards a state of mind where you can be happy. like for starters, starting a relationship with your dad even though you despise him.
why cant i orgasm? because your sad! if your sad then how can you feel good?
why do i feel so worthless? because you have low self esteeme
caused by the world that surrounds you
you feel unwanted and worthless. becuase you think the world thinks of you this way. am i not right?

why do i sometimes feel empty? all of the above[/quote]

No.

I feel sad because once I'm out of high school, I'll be all alone. No more people to laugh at for doing something dumb(Regular high school stuff), no friends, no girlfriend, just the memories of how easy life was when I lived with my parents. I'll have nothing, I'll be nothing, I'll never be something. The way the country is(politics) just means everything will get worse.

I think about killing myself because it relieves me. Makes me feel better(In fact digg.com reecently linked to an article where scientists said that Anyone who is asked to think how they will die will make them happy at the moment that they start thinking about it). i don't want to live, I have nothing to live for except God and so I don't burn in hell.

I'm secluded because I'm depressed. I have a friend in my neighborhood whose only friend in the neighborhood is me, I just don't want to socialize. I'd rather be alone.

I eat for comfort because I'm depressed. I THINK that if I was happier, I wouldn't be overweight.

I'm always tired because I'm awake thinking that I will see a demon in my room, so I leave the TV on so I can see, but then it keeps me awake. And when I do get lots of sleep, I'm tired anyways because I'm depressed.

I don't care about anything because I'm depressed. It's a symptom of depression. And I don't care about myself because of it.

I make fun of myself because I'm worthless, and it's better to say something bad then to say something good that everyone knows is a lie.

I can't orgasm because I'm clinically depressed. It should be obvious by now that I am.

I feel worthless because I am. I used to have potential, but I don't anymore.

I feel empty, because I am nothing. That's why I can't cry.

please carefully look over what i posted

you may be suprised that some of it actually does apply to you and the way youre feeling

maybe you dont want to admit it? or think its that way?

like i said i dont know you personally, but i do know alot about the main thing i know,which is people.

try looking into yourself a little deeper

you came on here to get help. because you dont want to die. you dont want to be hurt. you really really dont or else it would be done and over with and you wouldnt be HERE trying to figure yourself out

im a very logical person. I'm brutally honest, and I know myself. Chances are not completely, but I know myself enough. I just wish someone could motivate me to get help or something. I don't know. being here helps me escape reality which is kind of nice.

I'm good at writing. I don't really enjoy anything. I just do things that have a positive influence on my feelings, but don't make me feel anything(playing games).

I want to be an angel who is in heaven forever.

writing! seriously? me too? i have a book published called IRENE that i wrote and entered in a young authors contest and won first place!!!

do you know how many lives you could change by writing? poems? a book? a movie script? a biography? a book on life?
you could change the world. your words would live forever in the heart and mind of someone who enjoys the things you write about
how cool would that be?

you may want to pursue a writting career
writting is a much easier way to deal with everything and believe it or not it will teach you so much about yourself that you never knew. you will live in your words and be sucessful at it to!

you want to be an angel. ahh so thats what you want to be AFTER life here on earth? well what about starting now? angels walk the earth everyday and help people.

i dont have an opinion. rich i guess..

I used to have a fanfiction.net account when I first got depressed, it was like a live journal. someone commented saying i'd changed their life forever knowing that people can feel the way i felt. but he was a teenager, and you know how we are since you are one. he/she might notve meant it.

i just want to write a book and publish it. i dont want a career where i have to go to college. i just want God to kill me painlessly and take me to heaven.

though really, i suppose i wish that NOW i was an angel in heaven to be there forever.

by the way, did you ever hurt yourself? because im looking for something to SI right now.

yes i hurt myself

mmhmm its a long story ill try and make it short

when i was 14 i got involved with a horrible person that chaged me and made me feel like s*&^ about myself. i let him run all over me and treat me like crap. then i started doing drugs. very heavy drugs. cocaine and heroin and meth. my parents got divorced and i started running away. doing stupid things i wish i could change now that i look back.

well i started cutting to "relieve" what was going on
until my friend janine cut herself and she died.
then my friend ishmael got so fu*^$ed up on crystal meth he layed his body down on traintracks and let the train run over his head. he commited suicide. and the first time he ever did meth was with me. think of how that made me feel?

i stopped everything
coold turkey
its not worth any of it
its not worth the pain of haveing to sit here everyday knowing that i didnt stop them from doing what they were doing. because i WAS apart of it insetad of one of those people who could help.
