Ok...I need to ask this. (I'm a teenager)
What am I supposed to say when the doctor asks me if I'm happy? I'm not physically abused or anything, and my parents are ok to me (they're really mean and they treat me like I'm not a person, but they love me)
But I'm not happy. I'm too lonely and my mother stresses me out and I'm depressed all the time and it only hurts worse because I guilt myself. I keep wanting to run away but I can't because of my baby sister. I keep thinking, what if she grew up with memories of a big sister that she looked so much like her but who had run away when she was five? It would kill her so I can't do it. Not that I want to live in hell but I just feel like I cannot go on like this.
Should I tell my doctor I'm not happy? Why is he asking? Is it only to see if I'm abused at home?

Tbh I hide my emotions and I'd say I'm happy.
ReplyBut what I do, you know? I'm suicidal and my doctor doesn't know that. (my parents do, though, but they don't take that seriously)
Replylike im worried that he should know if it could help me. but it would kill my mom if I said im not happy.
Reply(It's the commenter on top) If your parents know, I think you should tell the doctor.
ReplyTell the doctor. Your happiness matters and in this case, it’s a good thing to put yourself and your health first. I’m sure your mom will be glad you’re getting the help you need. There’s no shame in it.
Replymental health is really important, and if you're not feeling happy I would express it to your doctor. your doctor would most likely recommend some next steps in order to address it like maybe suggesting a counselor. I went to a counselor when I was in a bad place in my life and she help me back on my feet to walk a path on my own out of these dark places. it's just nice sometimes to have someone to talk to and to listen to your problems and hartships in life
ReplyThank you, guys.
ReplyFirst of all, think about why you are not happy
Make a list of things that upset you
And you should avoid the things that upset you
Then also you should tell your doctor
And be positive and hopeful
Dont be sad
Smile
I hope you will always happy after this
