I enjoyed going to counseling in the beginning. I thought it would help. I thought that after a few months I could get back up and never think about suicide again. I hate it now. I don’t want to go anymore, it doesn’t help. I can’t tell anyone what I’m feeling. I want to. But I’m scared and ashamed. I don’t want to do this anymore.

I’ve gone to counseling back in high school due to stress and depression and it never helped. I guess because I know they were just humoring me and not -really-listening. But it didn’t help. They claimed it was because I wasn’t making the effort of feeling better, that I was too negative and liked to remain miserable. Even worse most of my classmates thought I did all this for attention.
So began a life of hiding what I truly felt. Bottling up my feelings. Nights of crying alone and contemplating on erasing my existence on the planet.
It’s helped a little being here some and writing things, down having people respond or not, it really doesn’t matter. Having an outlet helps so keep at it, and if you need a friend let me know. I may not have any answers for you but I will sit down and take the time to listen
Contact me then. My email is posted? so yeah, Im here. Counselors are quacks and in my experiences with them, they have either blamed me for shit that wasn’t my fault or called my parents on me.
deadotter – yeah, I can tell that to the counselors I am just another person with depression and they don’t really care about helping me. It’s crap.
WristSlitz – I’ll do that now.
I know the feeling with these Doctors and Therapists etc.Most of them made me feel worse.No-one is gonna know your mind better than you.There are other ways try if they aren’t helping – Meditation,self help groups,join a club.
i know it’s aesier said than done though
I guess counsellin is ok…but the thing i hate about counsellin is how they keep on sayin ” i can understand how you feel” -___- No u dont understand cuz u aint in ma shoes…that pissed me off so bad…i just said yh im cool mate…nvr went counsellin after that…tho they want to see me n all and they want me to see more cousellores and angermanegment ppl n crap….i told em im okay n crap to get the fuck away from them.
When i went counselling they said “oohh yhhh, its all private and confidential so you dont need to worry”
So i went 4 times a week and they kept on asking how i felt everyday…on suicide and if ive cut maself n thought about n crap..they put me on medication n all…next thing u kno they get ma mom involved in this….so they spoke with ma mom n all…and after that i went few times n all…
