So im 13 but my life is amess. Im failing my exams, my parents hate me and I barley have any friends. Ive been wanting to commit suicide for god knows how long, but i dont have the guts to do it. Im a failure at life. Everything I do is wrong according to my mum and I always cry my self to sleep, Â its exhausting. I wake up with sore eyes and everything. I want to go to a therapist but if i told my mum she would say its pointless and im pathetic:( please help on what I should do? Â Thanks in advance.

Shannon, despite what your mum says, seeing a counselor can be a great help. Keep at it. Confession is good for the soul. Good luck. G.W.
I agree with G.W. Try speaking to the school’s counsellor.
Tell an adult (teacher, counselor at school),
I wouldnt tell any of your classmates. They arent mature enough to help you, they might just tease you.
God yes. Friends are great to have but you will lose them quick at that age if you spoke with them about it.
Understand that the tests, school, the people you deal with are not nearly as important as everybody wants you to believe. They will all be gone in a few years if you remain in school and you likely will never have to deal with, or see them again. In the meantime, you must get yourself into the gym, into art classes, music, and/or anything else that interests you. The gym helps stabilize your mood and even improve your overall confidence. Everything else is just a matter of what you want. Never forget that you don’t have to stay there…you can leave anytime you want. But you must have a plan for leaving. A good friend, a close family member, etc. And figure out a job you can do to support yourself and provide for things that YOU want. All of this depression is a trap and you do not have to take it.
