I just want somebody to understand..

I hear ya , i used to cut too I've never been diagnosed of anything cuz I didn't wanna be labled for anything to give myself an excuse that i knew i would use if givien the chance but yea are u in counceling? I know that seems weird but it does help , i think its way better that taking a prescription any way but yea did u kno anti dep meds only have like a 15 % working rate on ur body, the rest is up to you, or atleast thats what the ppl here say but yea i dunno, just try to do things that boost your confidence level up and you'll feel great

I no how you feel..I use to cut and Im still struggling with it.Ive never actually had to be on any meds or in counciling..I kept it to myself and only some ppl knew about it!!.Ever since I satrted going to church my life has kinda settled down..I'll pray for you!!!.Remember "God wont give you more then he knows you can handle" I'm here for you if you ever just need someone to talk to..Okey Dokie!!Dont give up..I no lifes hard but if you just have faith you can get through anythjing..Just lay all your pain at the feet of jesus..He~He~He~~~Much Love Jamie

Aww hun, I know exactly how you feel, It is a tough sitatuion to be in, I'm not a religious person or anything but I find it helpful to everynight before bed just like in my bed & stare into the ceiling and talk to god, I know he's up there & listening, i just tell all of my problems and I trust that god will do whats right for me, If i feel like i need to cut or die I look up & ask why me why me, ofcourse I dont get an answer or anything but it seems to help me, writing helps me too, it is very hard to be that way, but you're a young girl with a lot of potential hun, just keep your head up, you're special dont let anyone prove you wrong, if you need to cry or scream just do it, Only you can save yourself.

awww :(
i find it hard to cry, to me it's a sign of being defeated, but that's only if i cry. i don't think this when other people cry, just me.
that's prob why i write poems.
some of the people close to me have referred me to a closed book, as i don't share any of my feelings.
i find it so hard to trust people, so then i have to confinde with my poems and that's how i can get my thoughts out, without being influenced by people to change my state of mind.
a few of my friends have cut themselves and i've seen the down hill trip they have taken.
i tried my hardest to try and get them to stop, but it's hard i guess for someone to stop, cos i would become like an obsession.
myself, i haven't cut, at times i have just thought was it's like and why people would want to conflict pain on themselves.
i know i will never cut cos i know i would lose al my friends and i can't put up with pain.
try and talk to people, that may help you not wanting to cut.
there's people out there who will help..
take care and best wishes for everything

thats how i feel sometimes. you see, most people just won't understand or accept who you are, and they push you to become something else. it's cruel and harsh, but we're still forced to live with it... just find the truth.

All of us would be lying if we said we didnt feel that way sometimes, we need to be here for eachother, we gotta be strong.

If think you should leave the drugs, all the anti-depressives have a bad effect, and personally I think they do more harm than good, I belive that to feel good, to feel normal, and happy, and ALIVE you have to be healthy. That means that medications and junk food are a big no-no. I know that it is very difficult because I am struggling with it myself right now, and to give up sugar and junk food is the hardest thing!
I hope that you get better, and able to lead a good life.

Best wishes,
beth
