I'm new here....

So yeah I'm new here. I am 17 years old close to finishing college. I was properly diagnosed with anxiety in October 2015 but it wasn't bad enough for anyone to do anything about it. But now it has got worse so in September 2016 I was put on propanol and told I should have one to one therapy. We are still waiting and each day it get worse. I have literally no one there for me really. They are starting to now think it's depression but I haven't told anyone how much I actually want to commit suicide. I find it hard to get up in the mornings and have missed a lot of lessons in the last few months which is obviously going to affect my grades and uni choices. I just signed up to see if it would help i don't know. so yeah....

I'll get back to you later, please just take one day at a time - in suffering, this allows you to build up your endurance so allow this to grow it's a great gift if you can develop it, there is almost a technique in remaining content under the crushing load, or certainly not panicking, or at least carrying on in discomfort, perhaps slower though. Submit to your difficulties at the moment, they are not permanent as you are at that age where your life will change a lot. Medication will help a lot but it takes about a month to start working.

Another tip is to expect less from life, have a more humble mind-set - life doesn't have to be great and for many it is not.

With suicidal thoughts, you have to put your family first, it would crush them if you ever even told them.

Please give me a bit more info, then I can give you a few practical suggestions - have you a faith for example?

cheers for now
