Well, I’m almost 16 years old and a few weeks ago I was diagnosed with depression, and I’ve been having suicidal thoughts for quite some time, but I’m not sure I should do it, because of how my family would react, since I don’t want them to believe it was because of their fault, i also dont want to hurt the feelings of my family, but I feel that the world is crap and doesn’t give you what you really deserve, and that people don’t treat you as they should, I need help, I don’t know what to do, and im really thinking on doing it 🙁

I used to be in the exact same situation before as well. I was 16, but I wasn’t diagnosed with depression until a couple months later. There is doubt in your mind to stay alive. That’s normal, I had the same thoughts too. Strangely what kept me alive was not only my family but the fear of not dying by trying to die. I was afraid of seeing the reaction my family would give after I tried and failed. I was also afraid of brain injuries. After my family caught on of my attempts, it got harder to even by sure of death. Eventually with time I stopped and started to heal. I’m here to tell you, if you are worried for your family about what’s going on with you, then give hints and give fries for help. Family with understand, I know they did for me. This world is crap but good family isn’t.
i feel you, i’m a about your age and i’ve decided to just keep my condition a secret. i’ve had one attempt (but the platform was too low) before. i suggest try bringing the topic up but not too seriously. if you want to get better, and your parents are caring and supportive, talk to them about it and you’ll be able to get professional help. hope things get better for you!
