So a few months ago i had a post about whether i should tell my mom about me being suicidal. Well i decided to tell her but the problem is i don’t know how to tell her . Anyone please help me to figure out how to do this!!!
Well i never told my mother i was suicidal directly, but i did tell her i was suffering from severe depression for years now, and have been dealing with it on my own. She basically told me its something i had to get over -_-. Then i told her i took a test that rates your chance of killing yourself, and had 100% chance of killing myself according to the results, basically to indirectly to tell her “hey dumbass im on the verge of killing myself here”, but she didnt get the message, and just kept telling me to get over it -_-. Most of the times parents dont really understand because they dont really see the signs of depression since most of us hide it with a fake smile. The best way i can tell you to do it is to just tell straight forward “mom, i have been suffering from depression, dont ask me why, i just am, and its getting worse, to the point where i have been thinking of suicide” blunt and to the point, what i should have done with my mom, if you dont get to the point they never understand. Parents may be stupid at times, but if you ask correctly, maybe they are the only people that can help, i know its a hard thing to do, almost as hard as coming out of the closet, but its something you should do if you cant help yourself anymore.
Yeah what he said. I was reluctant because I didn’t want my mom to hospitalize me when I was younger. I was also afraid she would’ve lost custody of me when I was young so I kept it a secret. But sometimes I think it would have been good for me to be hospitalized maybe I would’ve gotten the help I needed instead of the habit of hiding my depression. Now I’m afraid to tell anyone because I don’t want to lose custody of my child so the loop goes on. Don’t be like me tell your mom directly, get help, feel better. 🙂
