Why is being a masochist always regarded as bad?ahriman2

[QUOTE="ahriman2"]Why is being a masochist always regarded as bad?-Twilight-

And it's pathetic.

I'm not suicidal. It just helps deal with my emotions. I'm afraid that if I tell someone that they will think I'm crazy or something. I don't want to go to counciling but I know that if I tell someone I'm close to that I'll have to go to counciling.pokemonlvr51

you should go to counseling

What's the big deal, you are only cutting yourself, why anybody will think that you're CRAZY!!!

Pull yourself out... your weak if you can't... I garentee I've been through worse than you... I can't imagine anyone feeling worse than I have... but I pulled myself out... and don't harm yourself... and don't hate yourselfEatenFruit

Yeah, harden up what are you a pansy...........

That is what ignoramuses will tell you to be sure. Truth is if you are depressed you don't need to harden up you genuinely need help. I suggest you seek it.

I don't want to go to councelling. That's my problem.pokemonlvr51

Then there's nothing you can do but deal with it.

yes you definilty do have a form of depression and i suggest you care a little less about the things going on in your life and start watching some comedies and listening to some happy music Serraph105

I hear listening to depressing or angry music not happy music can help some people who are depresse. I suggest the TC try that if he/she is not already. Also, I, um... hear that cannabis helps with depression. ;)

meh when I was depressed... there was nothing any therapist was gonna say or do to make me better I had to deal with it myself...

If I tell an adult not related to me then they will just tell my parents that I've been cutting.pokemonlvr51

I don't think a therapist would, I think there is some privacy thing that prevents it. But I could be wrong.

Got nothing I can add but here is a link

Help always comes from within to be sure. Nevertheless telling him that he's weak if he can't just pull out of it by himself is not helping the situation. The kid needs someone else to help him help himself.

Not true... if someone would have just tould me that right away when I was depressed I would have been out of it much faster... its exactly what he need s to hear... BE STRONG!!!

How do I get help without my parents knowing? If I told my parents they would be brokenhearted. I love my parents and I don't want them to worry.pokemonlvr51

Don't tell them... JUST STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was wondering if I have some sort of form of depression. I've been depressed off and on for about two months and I've started cutting myself a month ago. I don't know why I do it. I guess it sort of helps me deal with my emotions. I've had a lot of things happening in my life that are making it hard for me to be happy.pokemonlvr51

First, you need to see a professional. There's a stigma associated with mental health that it's only for the "crazies" and the "nutjobs," but that's not true at all. There are lots of people who take those jobs because they want to help, and many of them have gone through the same thing you're going through right now.

Secondly, you need perspective. If you have a computer and the internet it leads me to believe you have a decent life, at least materialisticly speaking. There are millions of people who don't have enough money to put food on the table for their family, thousands of people are diagnosed with lethal diseases every day, someone just got into a car accident and died RIGHT NOW. I'm not trying to belittle your problems, and I understand that everything is relative, but you really need to open your eyes and be grateful for the life you have. No matter how bad it is, it could always be worse.

You have to cope with it yourself... find the root of y your dpressed in the first place... and get rid of it... I've been through terrible **** and felt like dying... you just need to leave your circumstances for 1 second and have a big outlook on the big picture of how you feel... then you need to COMPLETELY FORGET. keep your mind body and soul away from what happened.. or what you felt like.

telling me that I need help doesn't help. I know I need help and I know I'm not able to help myself.pokemonlvr51

If I were you, I would just tell my parents that there are things going on that are personal to you and you need help from a professional with dealing with it. If they insist on knowing, just don't tell them and keep reminding yourself that it isn't their business. All they need to know is that you need help and that you need them to help you get the help you need. Unless you have a job and your own insurance, chances are they are going to know that you are seeing a therapist.

Which is why most of us are suggesting you seek professional help. We're not telling you to help yourself, you need to see someone trained in this area. Talking to a mental health professional has nothing to do with you being crazy or nuts, it's just someone who will listen to you and figure out a way that you can help yourself. A lot of these professionals have gone through the same thing you're going through right now.

theres a fine line between telling people for help and telling people for pity... don't tell people for the wrong reasons...
