where can I get help if I want to die? I am 18 and my life is really stressful. I am worried all the time. If I go to my parents I know that they will say that I am just being dramatic/ They usually say that there are people who have worse problems than me. I just want to die.

ReplyHi! I just read this and wanted to let you know I acknowledge it. I've come to my parents with mental health issues, and it frustrates them too. It sounds like you are looking for help, which is a good thing.

ReplyYears ago, I didn't believe in "depression" as a real problem. I might have said the same things your parents are saying. Don't be upset that others do not understand.
I had to face it to believe it existed. It took me a long time to admit it to myself. I tried many things. Ended up at a doctor. Medication has helped me. I don't admit or tell people this. I still feel ashamed that my brain is "broken". I went from hiding in my room alone for YEARS to happily married, starting a small home business and taking up some other hobbies. I am glad to be here today.
It didn't happen overnight, but for me .. at least it happened. I might not have gotten any help if I believed others and their opinions of what I should be feeling or doing.
I did have a problem that was not my fault. Just as you do right now.
You have a big advantage already by acknowledging there is a problem, wanting change, and willing to accept help. I hope you are able to find and afford help, with or without your parents consent. Hope you can forgive them for not understanding.
