hello I am Yenedith I am 16 and I am new here . I am stuck in a spiral .I want help Im just scared to be told you don't need it or you're lying or you just want attention.I am drowning with conflicts hitting me left and right in the face one after another I JUST NEED A BREAK.My stomach is slowly getting worse I am 16 and I have 8+ ulcers ,burns in my esophaguses and a hernia.The pain never ends I have gotten used to it but no one knows how much pain I go through on top of that I have migraines .My health is not the best, my mom needs a kidney transplant ,My parents relationship is not the greatest,School is already stressful as it is .But being in a selective enrollment school with the pressure of being better lingering on my shoulders ,my father reminding me that I will never be good enough,I want to feel again.I am so dependent on others to help me that I am let down too many times ,I am not okay ,I look okay ,I present myself as okay just so others won't worry.But I know if I tell people I know they will not care or will brush it off.I need help I don't want to feel like I'm drowning every single second of my life.Im embarrassed...I don't want to seem weak.

Im stuck and I need help
You are okay just as you are. All that pressure is making you sick. I’m sorry your father is placing so much pressure on you. Can you leave home and live with a relative? Are you being treated for the ulcers? I hope so.
Hi!
I hope that life eases up for you sometime soon.
As for thinking you would be weak to seek help - I struggle with the same thoughts for a long time now, but via therapy and self-help I've come to realize that it's bullshit. Only the strongest people are capable of seeking help and being vulnerable.
Everything you just described is very serious, and a very valid reason to feel depressed and out of control - you won't be weak. And I am sorry there aren't enough people who care about you around you right now - but like lynnalice said, maybe you can change up your living situation? Or try to reach out to some people who you think would support you.
Either way, sending well wishes.
You can talk here, and tell your truths. We believe you when you say you need help.
