Please Help With “depression”?
Question by Vivian: Please help with “depression”?
I’m thirteen and I feel hopeless and selfish. I truly don’t like being this way. I break out crying sometimes and get a horrible sinking feeling inside. It all happens randomly. I sometimes feel like a zombie like I really don’t care about anything or anyone and consider living the rest of my life like that. I currently just moved in with my aunt and uncle. I had a rough childhood with emotional neglect and abuse. My parents love me, but they never showed it and still neglect me. So I decided I don’t have to put up with it. I feel selfish on how I just want to die and be with God when people are fighting to stay alive. That’s exactly why I hate feeling like this. I bring people down, am anti-social, and feel worthless. Still, I’m not positive this is depression. I am emotionally “scarred” and really have no one to hug and adore like I wish I could adore my parents. I feel so empty and depressed randomly, like right now. Usually I’m energetic and fun, but I have these moments. Does anyone know if this is a case of depression? I have a lot to be happy about and thankful about, yet I’m still sad and hollow. I did tell my aunt and uncle and they know when I’m depressed and talk about getting me medication or talking to my school counselor, but the topic is never pursued and I feel like I’m going in circles. So is it depression? If it is or isn’t, is there any way I can make this feeling go away?
Can Someone Explain the Inpatient Rehab “level” System?
Question by Paris: Can someone explain the inpatient rehab “level” system?
My boyfriend is in an inpatient rehab facility because of his drug use and threatened suicide. His mom told me he’s a “level 2” and I can’t communicate with him at all until hes a “level 3.” Can someone please explain what this means and what he has to do to be a “level 3” so I can talk to him again? I really miss him 🙁
