You know that time when your shouting to ask your mum a question or something from upstairs, you keep trying and she doesnt hear you. so in the end, you give up and shut up and hold it inside til its too late.

Okay, im not gonna lie. I really hope im not the only one that feels like this.. It honestly feels like i am screaming in my mums, counsillors and everyones face, that i really wanna die etc etc.. and they just dont seem to listen.

For example when i was like in A&E the counsillor, saw me in tears, rocking back and forth saying to myself, im gonna die. let me die. So she turns round and say give me a week to work with you? Now at the time, i could have hit her. What on earth makes you think i can hang on a week, look at me?!!! However, i did survive a week, make that two actually. offft.. and im still here now. but at the time it just felt like no one was listening to me anymore. and it annoyed me so much! i have told my cousillor times before like, im feeling suicidal and she just goes, oh you dont really wanna die do you, and we leave it at that after i say urm yes! its not til im actually in hopsital (this happened many times on my OD's) that she goes 'oh, you were serious' yes. i was serious. jeeeez. Anyway i've had my rant now, haaa! i hope im not the only one that feels like this.. comment :)

Oh I get the same. I find it so hard to ask for help in the first place - then when I do, my GP, nurses etc say “if you are feeling that bad come and talk to someone”, “if you are suicidal don’t keep it to yourself” and I feel like screaming at them because what the hell do they think i’m doing?! I am there asking for help, what’s the good in giving me a counselling appointment 2 weeks down the line, when I feel like I can’t make it to the next day?!

Yes, i couldnt agree more, i was feeling so down, so i pluked up the courage to tell my mum i needed some serious help, so she began to look into the priory etc, she asked my counsillor and i ‘didnt fit the criteria’ im sorry what? what is the criteria do i have to be dead or do something so drastic im in a coma or something, and yeah, and they think your less of a risk if you tell people, cause if you really waned to die, you wouldnt say anything yet they tell you to say something, what on earth? just doesnt seem to be logical to me. And oh i know, they’re so busy they can hardly fit me in either, and its just ridiculous, anyway. never mind

I think you guys are making some really good comments about the importance of really being heard. You deserve to be listened to, and it sounds like you want somebody to genuinely care as well. I wonder if there is something that can be done to help people communicate effectively their feelings to parents or professionals…
