    i fucked up so bad

    i was texting a friend and telling them about my depression and apparently they were texting my ex bf. i found out the reason he left me and it turns out it was my fault after all. i dont wanna give more details.

    anyway we were texting and i said some stuff i shouldnt have like admitting to being suicidal and he screenshot the fucking convo and sent it to my parents. i cant fault him because he did what he thought was right but still. anyway my parents stormed in took my phone asked if it was an attention ploy and told me I was heartless and didnt I care about them enough to tell them before I texted my ex boyfriend about it. they didnt even listen to me and now I’ve lost all phone privileges.

    fuuuucccckkk my parents were never supposed to know

    Mood : Remorseful
    • Your parents really should support, love and be there for you @985921sqh, your friend was looking out for you, which is the right thing to do as a friend, but your parents should listen to you, because how you are feeling, is NOT attention seeking, you are such a lovely, strong and brave person who deserves to feel valued, loved and appreciated, I would speak to your parents Echo, be honest with them about your emotions, thoughts and feelings, it’s up to your parents to listen to you and acknowledge your struggles so they can find the best way to help you, everything will be OK Echo, you will overcome the dark moments and so many brighter days will be ahead, remember you are a fighter who never gives up, always believe in yourself and keep going forward with confidence, you can do it Echo, inbox me anytime if you want to chat or vent, stay strong, you are never alone :) (hugs)

    • That’a really messed up. My dad never thinks that what I am dealing with is attention seeking, since he has the same mental issues as me. As Oliver said, your friend did the right thing of notifying your parents of how you really felt, but it shouldn’t make your parents think that your grabbing attention because that’s the opposite of what you do. I know for a fact that your not that type of a person that makes up feelings only for attention, and it shouldn’t have turned out that way at all. Your parents need to be supportive and caring no matter what your going through, and they shouldn’t have thought that way in the first place.
