What should I do??

[Brandysgirl]

For one of my classes we are doing a project where we have to look up mental hospitals and I found one that helps with really bad depression, anxiety and a few other issues that I have and I kinda want to check into it but I dont know if my parents would agree with me even looking into it because they dont understand my depression or my issues.

But when I was looking into it is sounds like something that might really help me and get me on more of the right track to feeling better and being a better me. They help with understanding why people self harm, things to stop the urges, what to do if you have urges, and it helps familys cope with understanding the persons depression.

I think you should make an appointment with your family doctor, and take your parents with you. Have your doctor explain to them exactly what your illness is, and what you're going through. This isn't a case where you're just "acting up". You have a real illness that needs treatment, and you need it now. All those scars are proof of that fact. Please make that appointment soon, and good luck. Let us know how it went.
